Can't FTP from DW to host site. Help!

[ivanovitch]

I'm trying to use the FTP wizard in DW to FTP my site. Everytime I test the connection I get an FTP error. I'm using the right ftp numerical address, username and password but I just get the same "FTP error remote host cant be found" mssg.

Any ideas?

make sure you have the right FTP address and check the passive FTP checkbox in DW

Also the path to your FTP folder.

Sorted. The site needed to have the hosting removed and re-added. Files are now up there, in the right place, with the right file names but I'm getting 404 when I search the URL.

(update: I managed to locate the problem. I had my individual pages in a folder called pages. When I removed them from that folder and located them directly in the root folder the site appeared)
