I am trying to edit my files directly via a HTML editor called Komodo Edit. It uses a SFTP remote connection to retrieve the files and allow me to save directly.
However, it does not seem to connect and kept prompting me for the password.
Anyone can help on what's wrong?
Thank you for replying kamain7.
I am using a password. had a password sent to me via email after I created the droplet.
Then I changed my password and use that to login via ftp.
So, with those steps, I am guessing I am NOT using SSH.
damlen396 are you sure that your editor supports SFTP or port 22, i belive it supports only FTP with port 21
Thank you for replying ymeriergi. I guess I am sure.
It has the option to select SFTP and to put in the port number.
yes, that is the same config I am using.
On a MAC.
Not sure if that is the issue or my password is too complex?
i am using it in windows,
maybe your password is too complex try to change it and can you send me the error that it says to you ?
I contacted support and got it fix while looking at the server log.
The issue is that my software is actually too old, so that and the server can't "talk" properly.
Updated it and it is solved.
Thank you so much for your help!
Are you connecting using the same SSH credentials that you use to connect to your server? Do you use a password or an SSH key?
