    Hi,

    while we are trying to save a file to FTP server from local machine, we are getting the following error:

    "You cannot save in the folder you specified. Please choose another location "
    and

    "The filename '...' is invalid or unsupported by the chosen directory "

    any ideas to get rid of this errors?

    Thanks in Advance

    "You cannot save in the folder you specified. Please choose another location "

    ...means that you do not have write permissions for that directoty on the server.

    "The filename '...' is invalid or unsupported by the chosen directory "

    ...means that the file name is not allowed, usual cause is spaces in the name; or the filetype is not allowed, some ftp servers restrict certain types per directory.
