PHPStorm FTP Connection Fails

newms87 picture newms87 · Aug 22, 2013 · Viewed 34.4k times · Source

Hey I am having an issue connecting with FTP in PHPstorm. I know I have the correct parameters because it works in other FTP clients.

The error I get is: Could not list contents of the folder "ftp://real-meal.com/"

The port is set to 21, as it should be. and I know I have the correct username / password. Any ideas what the issue could be?

Here is the Log File:

I was just having this same issue in PHPstorm. To fix it I had to simply click Advanced and select Passive Mode. Once I did that it connected right up for me. Hope it helps.
