I created an account by ​http://www.awardspace.com and filezilla is not able to create any directory called "form". Please see the workaround below:

Hi,

My ftp client cannot create any directory called "form". This problem happens only by this free hosting provider.

To solve this problem, I have to create this directory 7 times in different places using the "File Manager". It is a knightmare.

Is this a bug or there is a better solution?

Thanks !

Joao

This error is happening since 2008.

I am using Filezilla (latest version)

Comando: MKD form
Resposta: 550 form: Forbidden filename
Comando: MKD /nossafamilia.org/components/com_fabrik/views/form
Resposta: 550 /nossafamilia.org/components/com_fabrik/views/form: Forbidden filename

Best regards,
Joao

Hello Joca,

This does not seem to be a bug. At least it is not a bug in our system. If it was, the File Manager wouldn't have let you create this folder. I tried to create the same folder called "form" using FileZilla and I got the same error. Maybe FileZilla support might know the answer. We will have to consult with them. If we can help you further with something, please let us know.

Not a problem with FileZilla. This clearly is caused by the server.
