FTP put command problem

mojoman · #1 (**permalink**) 07-03-2009

Hello,I am trying to put something on the ftp server using the put command. Whenever I try, I get this error:

ftp> put SIMS.war
local: SIMS.war remote: SIMS.war
200 PORT command successful
553 Can't open that file: Permission denied

I have set rwx for all on that file and I still am having this problem.

Any ideas?

you may not have the permission to put the file in remote server..

ie., you cannot write to the remote directory, another file is already there owned by someone else, etc.

yes, you might have rwx permissions for all on YOUR file, where you have it.
But you need to have write permissions on the remote servers folder where you are trying to put this file AND you also must have permissions enough to overwrite an existing file, just in case.
