Otsikko: Error when installing new packages.
Kirjoitti: apnguyen90 - helmikuu 04, 2011, 01:52:53 IP
Hello all, I've recently upgraded to the SMF 1.1.12 version, but when I try to upload new packages and apply them I get an error that says
"550 The parameter is incorrect" when logging into my FTP. Does anyone know whats wrong?

Thanks a lot!

When you upgraded, did you upload the files with Filezilla, by any chance?

If so, did you have the Transfer type set to "binary"?

If not, you may need to upload the files, again.

Filezilla has a... er... "Feature". :(

I upgraded straight from Godaddy's application page.

Ah... GoDaddy...

From the experiences that I've had, with them, I think you'll be best asking them.

No doubt, they'll fob you off with some crap, as they usually do. But, it might be worth a try.

I'll try contacting godaddy, in the mean time.

Does anyone else have suggestions?

Yeah -- switch hosts.

Any recommendations? My site expires in May.

P.C. Tweakr (http://pctweakr.com/) is quite good. Take a look at their plans and choose one.... ;)

Actually you might take a look at the hosts that have topics here:

Hosts, Hosting and Commercial Services (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=4.0)

You definitely need to contact GoDaddy as the error is server side.

Are you able to log in using an FTP client?
