Hello, I just installed Xampp 1.4.11 on Windows XP Home SP2.
Everything seems to work fine, except for FileZilla which refuses to start.
When I run FileZilla_Server_Interface.exe, it says:

> FileZilla Server version 0.9.4d beta
> Copyright 2001 by Tim Kosse (Tim.Kosse@gmx.de)
> Connecting to server...
> Connected, waiting for authentication
> Logged on

Server adress: 127.0.0.1 at Port: 14147. The Xampp Status page indicates that all services are activated (green), including the FTP Service.
When I try to run FileZilla by doubleclicking filezilla_start.bat, a cmd-window appears for a split second, but nothing happens. Same thing when I doubleclick filezilla_setup.bat, nothing happens.

Please help!!

Peter

The interface to the server is telling you are connected to the server
Meaning the server was already running

FileZilla needs to be installed as a service in windows and does so at boot

Thanx for your reply, jchapel.

FileZilla Server is actually running and appears in the list of local services in the Windows XP System-manager. Doubleclicking on filezilla_start.bat still shows the cmd-window for a split second but nothing happens. Re-booted my pc.... still same problem can't get FileZilla running.

Please help!

Fine, your FTP-server is running

Doubleclicking on filezilla_start.bat still shows the cmd-window for a split second but nothing happens

Right, your FTP-sever is allready running --> see first quote. Nothing to do here.

Re-booted my pc.... still same problem Sad can't get FileZilla running.

--> see first quote

BTW:
start the server in a console with:

Code: Select all

net start "filezilla server"

stop the server in a console with:

Code: Select all

net stop "filezilla server"

Did you really use a FTP-client for the connection to the FTP-server?

Thanx for your relpy, Wiedmann.

Aaaaaah, I thought that filezilla_start.bat is to start the FileZilla FTP Client, but this only starts the server. So I have to install the FileZilla FTP Client apart ?!?

Thankx.

Peter

So I have to install the FileZilla FTP Client apart?!?

Or any other FTP-Client.

BTW:
You can use your browser also --> ftp://localhost/
