Hi MAK,
Thanks for your reply. I found the passive thing and clicked
on that and saved it, but it didn't change anything. I still get as
far as listing the directory and the dumb thing just hangs. Talk
about making me nuts, I uploaded during the day Wednesday and by
Wednesday night it wouldn't list the dumb directory to let me in. ARGH!!!!!
Thanks for helping, gonna have to work on this somemore,
Debie

I had the same problem - so I went to Mirc Chat and asked how to fix
it - They promptly texted - It no longer will do "active" - I know
what the heck does that mean - so they walked me through it - it is
a setting in the WS-FTP program -
This is how you fix it in that -
When you open - click OPTIONS on the bottom menu -
then click the far top left hand tab - labeled sessions -
then click the box that says Use Passive Transfer mode
and that should fix it -
Now, if you have a different one - click around until you find
something that says ACTIVE or PASSIVE and click so it is PASSIVE -
You think they would have sent all of us who use that an email -
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
Hey - but FREE is FREE (grin)
Hope that helps -

Subject: [WIGEN] Uploading Issues
Hello Fellow CC's,
I'm not sure if anyone on the list is using Rootsweb Freepages or
Homepages, but I thought I would give my question a shot, just in
case. If any of you are using either Freepages or Homepages on
Rootsweb, are you having an issue uploading in the last few days? I
have been trying to upload my files for three days now and can't get
past the "here comes the directory listing". It just hangs there and
then times out, never giving me my list of directories.
I can get into the area that houses Sheboygan & Calumet Counties
WIGenweb pages without any issues, just not the freepages or
homepages area and it's making me crazy. I had been looking on
Rootsweb because I thought they use to have an area where they
announced if they were having issues with something, but I can't
locate that area any longer and haven't heard back from the Help desk.
So, if anyone is having the same problem, please let me know so I
know it isn't my software or something.
Thanks in advance,
Debie
