Having server communication conflict in DWCS3

[enlightenme]

Hi all,

First of all, I never experienced this issue and it mysteriously came up. I am
not sure what it could be.

When I test the connection in the 'Remote info' area under Site Definition it
works fine. However, I got this message in the same area:

Warning: The selected folder does not contain the current site's
homepage. A site map can not be built.

Also, when I try to sync files I get the big FTP error message that explains
what I need to check, which I did.

Some help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

When establishing a connection to the server, all that is verified is that a connection using File Transfer Protocol (FTP) can be made, and that User X can by authenticated using Password Y

If that much checks out then you get a successful test So you are good there.

The error you are getting is that the default folder that you are specifying in your settings does not contain an index.htm or other home page name (default.htm, index.php, etc.) Common error if ftp account directs the request to the main folder of your hosting space, while your actual site is located in (typically) a subfolder called www or wwwroot or whatever name the server has designated.
