iweb directory path problem?

jc

Just trying to upload my iweb website using ftp. It's failing as it says incorrect directory path.

Anyone know what I should put in the directory path? I've checked online forums and can't find the answer.

thanks

When I used iWeb, I publish to a folder on my desktop. then FTP the whole thing up to my site. It's the contents of that folder that you need to upload. You can use Filezilla to upload your site. Don't just drag that folder from your desktop to your site. In that folder there should be an index.html file. Open the folder and upload the files, including index.html, and subfolders.

I found this link in Google but can't check it out because I'm behind a firewall:

http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/26/mac-101-p...es-to-f... Thank goodness for Google cached pages. From the link I sent you:

Server Address: example.com (your domain)

User Name: The FTP user listed for your domain in Manage Domains. This is not your DreamHost panel login and password.

Password: You know...

Directory/Path: example.com (your domain, no slashes)

Protocol: FTP, Port 21

And make sure that your user has FTP enabled. This is done through the DreamHost panel under Manage Users. If they're allowed to use FTP, there will be a WebFTP link in the right column.
