    Unhappy FTP problem...

    This problem has started occuring just this evening.

    Everytime I try to upload a file that already exists on the server (such as index.php), I get an error:

    STATUS:> Connecting data socket...
    550 index.php: Overwrite permission denied
    ERROR:> File error
    STATUS:> Failed to send c:\web\humor\index.php
    This is in CuteFTP. I get the same thing in command prompt FTP.

    However, if I upload a file to the server that doesn't already exist, it'll get uploaded.

    What could be the problem? How do I rectify it?

    CHMOD each and every php file?

    CHMOD them to what? At present I have 644.

    I tried setting it to 755, and then overwriting, but I got the same error.

    Delete the old files then copy the new ones....

    The permissions wont let u overwrite but, if it let u write and delete, it will work.
