Everything seems to look ok when I publish to website via ftp but I cant seem make it work out. Sailwave connects to my website and says everything was published but I can’t find or use the .htm file. I publish to www.humbodtyachtclub.org/public_html/sites/default/files/ (base url)and then create a name in sailwave to save the file as(testrace). What next? Shouldn’t I be able to go to http://www.humboldtyachtclub.org/public_html/sites/default/files/testrace.htm and see the page?
This is generally due to the file being saved in another directory on the website., usually a higher directory.
Can you look in http://www.humboldtyachtclub.org/public_html/sites/default/files/testrace.htm> or http://www.humboldtyachtclub.org/public_html/sites/default/files/testrace.htm>/sites for example to see if your file is there?
From a browser, enter ftp://www.humboldtyachtclub.org/public_html - you will be prompted for your username and password.

That’s exactly what I am seeing. I have Base URL as http://chifed.org/fedresults/results2014/ but the .htm is always uploaded into http://chifed.org/fedresults/ It’s the same even if I add a sub-folder to Base URL.
Is there a solution to this other than moving the .htm into the correct folder (which rather defeats the purpose of the FTP upload)?

You can either make the login you are using use http://chifed.org/fedresults/results2014/ as its base (this is done on your server) or you can add the results2014/ in front of the filename that you ftp’ing up to the server

I’m finally giving this a run again instead of using the sailwave results folder. My only real problem is that the .htm file has ftp in front so others cannot see it without logging onto my website.
ftp://www.humboldtyachtclub.org/2014vetday.htm
Also I have attached a screen shot from sailwave of my global ftp settings.
My .htm file does not go to:
www.humboldtyachtclub.org/public_html/sites/default/files/
it just goes into my base/home or highest directory of my website in cpanel. Of course I removed the username and password.
Hi Garret - Where is the ftp coming from it must be something that you are entering as Sailwave doesn’t put it there.
If you you put the path in front of the name you want to upload it will definitely work OK
So as an example if the login to the ftp server logs you into the root of the server and in my example we want to put the files in a directory Qweb as a subdirectory of the root then
When I publish the results enter a filename of Qweb/Test.htm
Give me a call if you still have a problem.

Thanks for your reply Jon. Did you happen to look at the screenshot I sent with my original post? I am guessing that anything in the root file for our website isn’t public and has the ftp in front of it.
