Possible FTP problem with ISP I hope this is the right place to ask this -- I have a very irritating problem with FTP'ing, in which uploads and downloads will sometimes freeze and then never complete, thus holding up my work until they time out. I used to think this was related to my system, but I just chnaged computers from an iBook to a Samsung PC and the problem continues. I have had this occasional freezeup problem on TextWrangler on my iBook and on DZSoft software on my Samsung PC. I have told BOTH companies about it, and they both suggested that the problem may be with my ISP. Before I write my ISP again to explain the problem, can anyone shed any light on this so I'll know how to explain it to them in a way that might actually get them to fix this? THanks Brian
Maybe it's something to do with your server or its settings.. what are you uploading and downloading? Could be maybe your server's HD is full, too.. or something like that. I wouldn't think it would be an ISP problem.
Thanks for the response. I hadn't considered that possibility before, but now that you mention it, my main directory is crowded with some unnecessary files that I've been meaning to weed out. I'll give it a shot.
Thanks again, I think an overloaded directory is the problem. I'm going to whittle it down to 500 files max from now on. One other thing that seems to help a little is if I wait a few seconds between opening the FTP interface and clicking on the folder that I need. At least that's my experience so far in dealing with DZSoft PHP editor.
