Subject: Problem Editing Web Sites with FTP in Visual Web Developer
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 12:06:01 -0700
I am having a problem Editing Web Sites with FTP in Visual Web Developer 2008
Express Edition. I am trying to connect to a commercial server that is
running Dot Net Nuke 4.8.02
The strange part is that when I create a project in Visual Web Developer
2008 Express Edition, it will create the file tree hierarchy however when I
attempt to open a file (say the web.config), an error message tells me,
"Unable to get file 'web.config' from the Web Server". If I try to open the
default.aspx file, I get the error message, "Unable to get the file
'default.aspx' from Web Server. Failed to change directory to "httpdocs":
550 CWD failed. "httpdocs": no such file or directory."
It also won't let me build to 3.5 Net Framework because it can't access the
web.config file. I can see it; just can't access it. Any ideas?

I fixed it. Instead of clicking File>New Web Site, I chose File>Open Web Site.
Of course the VWDCache took 30 mins to download the entire site, but I now
have rw access.
