Having problems uploading files?


If you are still facing problems uploading please check:
  • You are not trying to upload through a firewall. If so, and the firewall is on your own PC, configure it to allow the upload. If the firewall is on a networked machine, contact your systems administrator.
     
  • If this does not resolve the problem, a basic connection to the webspace can be enabled using the DOS prompt as follows:
  1. Click Start on your PC and then select Run
  2. Type in ftp ftp.myweb.tiscali.co.uk
  3. You should see a screen similar to this image       
  4. At the prompt type in your username and click Enter
  5. You will then be prompted for your password after which you must click Enter again
  6. If you get a successful login here this indicates the FTP client has been configured incorrectly. If your login fails and you have logged in previously this indicates the username or password have been entered incorrectly
     
 
 

Recommended FTP software

We recommend the use of WS_FTP software to upload files to your webspace. A complete setup guide and free download for WS_FTP is available HERE.
We also have a basic guideline on how to setup FTP using Windows Commander and Microsoft FrontPage.
 
 
Tip of the day
"When connecting to Tiscali as your ISP, you need to use Tiscali's SMTP server to send email: smtp.tiscali.co.uk"
