Connection refused? HELP!!

When I try to upload files to my website, the FTP-cilent says 'connection refused'

why is that? :0

If this helps, the ftp-cilent I use is ALFTP, and my website is on funpic.org

Re: Connection refused? HELP!!

I'm afraid "connection refused" is a fairly standard error message, and multiple things can cause it, including:

- Site is too busy, because the server only allows a limited number of people to use FTP at once.
- Site maintenance ("refused" doesn't mean you did something wrong).
- FTP client is set to passive mode when the server doesn't support it (rare).
- Compatibility issue between your FTP client and the server (common).

If you're having issues with the server spanning several days, you might have to try a different FTP client.  I've never heard of ALFTP.  I use an old version of CuteFTP.  My backup FTP program, CoreFTP LE, is available for free, and so is FileZilla.
