Thanks. It does eventually take...but still somewhat flaky.

From one problem to another..... The CPanel File Manager seems a little flaky. I try renaming a file and it doesn't "take". So instead of clicking on the filename, I then tried selecting the file and using the 'Rename' button. Same thing. Doesn't take. As I said in an earlier post, Web Disk doesn't work. Same thing when I want to delete a file. The file or folder just won't disappear! I have noticed that sometimes (and only sometimes) if I close and reopen CP File Manager **then** the file gets renamed or deleted as required.....but not always. And this isnot a particularly convenient way to work. <sigh> Any suggestions? Am I missing something? - Mark

Thanks guys. It **was** much easier to upload as a single file and unpack!

I'm trying to get a lot done in a short space of time...and already had help via the ticket system. I have set up my domain today and getting a bit tied up! Several problems: I have installed WebDisk, but when I use File Explorer (I'm using XP) it 'sees' the directory structure in My Network Places but it doesn't see the actual files. When I click on a directory, I get a message saying that the files don't exist, which is frustrating. I am using Smart FTP currently to upload files (trying to upload MediaWiki 1.6.10) but I think I am getting something wrong. I used CPanel to create an ftp account (upload@mydomain with a password). Uploaded files are going to the directory /home/myuser/www/upload but then SmartFTP is failing at some point (but not always at the same point). It is uploading so many files, then stops, with the message "Transfer failed. Use the Transfer Queue for automatic retries" I hevn't been using Smart FTP long enough to know how to use the Transfer Queue...it seems to want to add only individual files rather than whole directories. <sigh> If it helps, it comes up with "550 Can't check for file existence" in the SmartFTP 'action pane' for the files. This would seem to imply a permission error. Yet why does it upload some files and not all of them???? Surely the directory permission for a specifically designated FTP account would allow me to upload files? I keep having to delete the directories that **do** get uploaded to try starting again. So..... ....why isn't Web Disk able to see files? (It shows as ****:2078 in My Network Places) ....why can't I upload the files through SmartFTP? All very frustrating.
