Windows – Configure Filezilla FTP Server to Allow Uploads

file-permissionsfilezillaftpwindows-server-2008-r2

I have Filezilla running on windows server 2008 but I can't figure out how to allow uploads. I'm getting a permission denied or can't access file error. How can I give Filezilla access to the upload directory?

I get the can't access file error when I check (file) delete for shared folder and permission denied when it is unchecked…

Best Answer

I suspect that you have Filezilla set up fine, based upon the logs you showed, and the issue is actually a directory or file permission issue.

Depending on the situation (meaning if this is safe to do or not), easiest way to test is to set the destination directory's (the one on the server) sharing and security to 'everyone' and then try again.
