Furthermore, how do you check a server to see if an ftp server is running on it?
Consider the following steps
Press Win+R
type inetmgr and press enter
it opens IIS
expand the list and if you find "FTP Sites" folder available then FTP is installed in your system
to check if ftp server is running or not expand "FTP sites" folder
u will find a sub directory "Default FTP Site".
right click on that subdirectory and you will find 'start','stop' and 'pause' options available there
if start option is disabled then ftp server is running on your system
you can also start it if not already started
To install FTP. just go to Add/Remove windows component and re install IIS with FTP services and you r done
to check ftp if ftp server is running or not on a remote computer
open your cmd and type ftp and press enter. then use command "open 172.25.65.788" or u can use your own ip address. if it asks for username and password that means server is running.
Just open your favorite ftp client, specify server url and click connect. If connection successful then ftp is installed and started on a server.
You can do even from windows console, just type something like (open Run dialog by pressing Win+R): cmd /K ftp {serverurl}

I'm facing strange issue with WinSCP: It works well and I'm able to connect to remote hosts. But when I try to use the "Open session in PuTTY", instead of logging me directly with same credentials, PuTTY gets "stuck", prompting me to "login as".
I've checked the config in WinSCP and it looks fine: "Remember session password and pass it to PuTTY" is ticked.
What else should I check?
I'm using WinSCP 4.2.7 and PuTTY 0.60.3.
As documented:
By default, WinSCP creates temporary site settings for PuTTY (under the name "WinSCP temporary session"). The site settings will contain only the options known by WinSCP, mostly connection options. It will particularly lack any terminal options, so the defaults (Default Settings profile) will apply.
If you want to configure your own options, you can save PuTTY site settings with the same name as a WinSCP site. WinSCP will then instruct PuTTY to open that session (It will not export any settings, nor a connection options).
So if you have an invalid stored session in PuTTY with the same name as your WinSCP stored site, the "Open in PuTTY" function won't work, as it tries to open that invalid site.
Side note: You are using an obsolete and insecure versions of WinSCP and PuTTY. You urgently need to upgrade!
WinSCP is somehow looking into PuTTY saved sessions that are configured. I had a saved session in PuTTY with same name as in WinSCP ("myApplication - integration"). Somehow, when the session already exist in PuTTY, WinSCP is not able to log me in directly to PuTTY.
I deleted the saved session from PuTTY, and it worked: now WinSCP logs me in directly in PuTTY. And now I see a "WinSCP temporary session" in the list of saved session in PuTTY.
We need provide putty path
Right click the putty icon in WinSCP then go to Queue -> Customize -> Application
then provide your putty.exe path using browse button
then click ok
Now click the putty icon button from WinSCP, Putty will open automatically :)
In WinSCP Go to :
preferencce - > integration -> application
under "putty/terminal client path" add this line :
%ProgramFiles%\PuTTY\putty.exe -t -m "%TEMP%\putty.txt" !cmd.exe /c echo cd '!/' ; /bin/bash -login > "%TEMP%\putty.txt"
Can somebody tell me how to create an ftp server using only cmd and also how to configure it using only cmd
The command prompt ftp in windows is a client ftp. You can't use it like a ftp server. You need an ftp server software. You can probably find one for free online.
I am trying to connect to a remote host in PhpStorm 9 via FTP and it connects to the host but does not display any files/directories.
I am able to ftp and see files/directories just fine via FileZilla with the same ftp profile/settings I used in PhpStorm 9.
Why am I not able to see files/directories via FTP in PhpStorm 9?
Try switching between Active ans Passive FTP modes (option is located in Advanced Options dialog of the Deployment settings/preferences page.
i want to make a server using xampp. i have already installed xampp and setting port 8080. php and mysql work fine but i can't access ftp from internet. Can you please suggest way how can I do this?
XAMPP comes preloaded with the FileZilla FTP server. Here is how to setup the service, and create an account.
Enable the FileZilla FTP Service through the XAMPP Control Panel to make it startup automatically (check the checkbox next to filezilla to install the service). Then manually start the service.
Create an ftp account through the FileZilla Server Interface (its the essentially the filezilla control panel). There is a link to it Start Menu in XAMPP folder. Then go to Users->Add User->Stuff->Done.
Try connecting to the server (localhost, port 21).
XAMPP for linux and mac comes with ProFTPD. Make sure to start the service from XAMPP control panel -> manage servers.
Further complete instructions can be found at localhost XAMPP dashboard -> How-to guides -> Configure FTP Access. I have pasted them below :
Open a new Linux terminal and ensure you are logged in as root.
Create a new group named ftp. This group will contain those user accounts allowed to upload files via FTP.
groupadd ftp
Add your account (in this example, susan) to the new group. Add other users if needed.
usermod -a -G ftp susan
Change the ownership and permissions of the htdocs/ subdirectory of the XAMPP installation directory (typically, /opt/lampp) so that it is writable by the the new ftp group.
cd /opt/lampp
chown root.ftp htdocs
chmod 775 htdocs
Ensure that proFTPD is running in the XAMPP control panel.
You can now transfer files to the XAMPP server using the steps below:
Start an FTP client like winSCP or FileZilla and enter connection details as below.
If you’re connecting to the server from the same system, use
"127.0.0.1" as the host address. If you’re connecting from a different
system, use the network hostname or IP address of the XAMPP server.
Use "21" as the port.
Enter your Linux username and password as your FTP credentials.
Your FTP client should now connect to the server and enter the /opt/lampp/htdocs/ directory, which is the default Web server document root.
Transfer the file from your home directory to the server using normal FTP transfer conventions. If you’re using a graphical FTP client, you can usually drag and drop the file from one directory to the other. If you’re using a command-line FTP client, you can use the FTP PUT command.
Once the file is successfully transferred, you should be able to see it in action.
I launched ubuntu Xampp server on AWS amazon.
And met the same problem with FTP, even though add user to group ftp SFTP and set permissions, owner group of htdocs folder.
Finally find the reason in inbound rules in security group, added All TCP, 0 - 65535 rule(0.0.0.0/0,::/0) , then working right!
On XAMPP click "Start" and after "Admin".
Login to localhost (127.0.0.1) without password, with second port, not with 21.
Add users and passwords, change your settings. Quit.
I can't seem to get the NppFTP plugin to connect to my localhost (via XAMPP) for local development using Notepad++.
According to the http://localhost/xampp/ docs, the default username and password are 'newuser' and 'wampp' accordingly.
I'm using these settings:
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 21
username: newuser
password: wampp
initial remote directory: C:/xampp/htdocs/myrootdirectory
The console just says 'Quit' right after I try and connect.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? And if it's because localhost is not a remote directory, how do I configure Notepad++ to browse my local files without relying on Windows Explorer?
If you're running on windows, make sure you're running your xampp control (xampp ui ) as admin. Then, you have yo check SVC checkbox before filezilla then click start. A pop-up will prompt and click Yes to install it as a service.
after that, click admin then click Yes. set you password then you're good to go.
In you're notepadd++, the settings are the same with the one you posted above.
Hope that helps.

Actually, it doesn't make sense to Filezilla into your localhost, you should just use the Notepad Plugin, Explorer.
