For what it is worth, I started having lots of trouble connecting to ftp sites
about a month ago. I could easily connect to them before that through many
versions of DW (this occurred using cs3). I tried many solutions listed here
and others I found elsewhere to no avail.

Then, I looked at the updates to cs3. Coincidently, at the time of one of the
adobe updates, the ftp time out in preferences got set to 5. I changed it to
60 and now all is good again. I am not suggesting that the update changed the
time out timing, it may be correlative instead of causative. However, it used
to work, I did an adobe update, then it didn't work. Go figure.

Thanks - this is a good thing to check. Glad you posted it.

I'm seeing many FTP timeouts with Dreamweaver 8.02. Host is Red Hat Fedora
Core 5, client is Windows 2000.

What's so suprising is when the timeouts occur. The FTP log shows, for example,

< 200 Type set to I
> STOR InfoSitePage.py
< 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for InfoSitePage.py
< 226 Transfer complete.

and at that point, Dreamweaver stalls. That's not right. At that point the
server has correctly completed the transfer, and it's the client's turn to send
a new command. What is Dreamweaver waiting for? A close on the data connection?

In fact, when Dreamweaver is waiting, the FTP protocol is consistently in a
state where Dreamweaver shouldn't be waiting. It's as if Dreamweaver is
mis-parsing the FTP server replies, and looking for something it shouldn't
expect. "226 Transfer Complete", with no "-" indicating a multline reply, means
the server is done. Looks like a Dreamweaver bug, with Dreamweaver not looking
for the correct FTP replies.

If you're getting FTP stalls, please post your FTP log. Thanks.
