FTP error: Timeout was reached

[ss-kalm]

Typically the timeout isn't the time taken for the whole upload, it's the time taken to establish communication, so the size of the upload is irrelevant.

But it has already uploaded say 23% so communication is already established.

My experience exactly... It would begin... appear to be uploading established connection as you said) and then..... TIME-OUT...

I don't pretend to understand... I'm just saying what I experienced... and it was my ISP. That's all.

thats a [ often somewhat arbitary] measure of the whole process which, as ss-kalm pointed out, begins with trying to establish a connrection... if that fails after a certain number of tries/time, it will timeout, and could well be showing at [say] 23% depending on how long the failed attempt took measured [ again not necessarily accurately] against what was expected

I'd agree with Rob-Xar and others, it's most likely a security issue, either firewall or other setting, that could be on your computer/network[router], or your host, or your ISP

When you do a full web site preview, where does Xara put the files? I wondered whether they could be uploaded with FileZilla which has never let me down. At the moment I have been using File - publish website....

Xara creates a folder in %localappdata%/Temp/; instead, you just perform a Website Export and FTP that folder's contents.

If you are going to use FileZilla Use Website export, I export to folder on my desktop called website easy to find and all files are right there to upload

Hi Guys,
Did anyone find a solution?

I am now getting "FTP error: Timeout was reached".

I have been uploading several websites (in one case for a number of years) with no problem. I cannot update my websites, which are time critical as they involve sending ut dates and times of events.

I use IONOS (used to be 1&1) there tech help could not solve the issue. This issue renders the whole of XARA useless for my purposes so a solution is critical.

I can export the website to a folder and that works just fine, so presumably the problem is upstream of the physical process of XARA creating the code.

I loaded the exported files to the server using Filezilla - no problem. So somethinng diferent between and the ISP (1&1)

Help please!
Martin
