Uploading Files with FileZilla
By Joe Gardiner Wednesday, 9th June 2010
You will need to have all your access options and settings from the catN control panel before following this guide. Have a look at the Quick Start guide for help. Now you've had a look at all your access options, know your public directory and have set a password it's time to upload your website!Upload your site
If you're planning on uploading a php CMS or application have a look at these install guides: In the mean time lets upload some average (X)HTML files and a style sheet. We're going to upload using the FTP client FileZilla that you set up earlier (right?). Load up FileZilla and have a look at the interface. In the left panel is the contents of your local directories, and the right will be empty as you're not currently connected to a server.
Next connect to the access server.
In the host field enter the name of your access server e.g. access1.c1.catn.com
In the username field enter your username from the settings page, and in the password field enter the password you have just set. You can leave the port field empty as vCluster and FileZilla will use the default 21.
Click Quickconnect to attempt the connection. If successful the directories on your vCluster will be viewable in the right side panel.
You can now drag your web site files across from the local directories on the left into the http folder on the right (live) panel of FileZilla.
Success, now you can type your vCluster domain into your web browser to view your live, uploaded web site.
