in blogger when I try to ftp my post to my site it will keep giving me this message, it says:

There Were Errors in Publishing.
550 hostesssite.org/my usrname: No such file or directory.

I put my file name as index.html... and the files there... I promise.
but its still rejecting it.

So, I search it, find a faqs page and it said something about how if your web host company isnt letting you ftp then you can use these ip addresses (and it gives them) but my question is how? and where? do I put these addresses.
and if thats not the problem then what is...

perhaps I need to put a code in the index file?

thanks for your help,
haley

When you log in in your normal ftp are you able to see all the directories including the one from your host? because i have that, and i have to fill in something like a path. When i log in i see all the directories, and i just have to open mine and there are my files.

Let me know what you filled in. And i believe you're hosted so you should be able to use ftp.

Yeah, I'm hosted. I log right into my own directory though.

I just put my address in the path space.

you should not fill in anything at all in the "path" field if it's just your index.html page. This is how i got it to look when i was hosted at someone else that did had seperate FTP logins:

name: username
password: your password
Url: example; http://yoursite.com/index.html
filename: index.html

your path field must be clean. Why? because it's your index.html page. If you had a subdirectory named "blogger" and into that folder you had an index.html than your path would be "blogger" and your url would be http://yoursite.com/blogger/index.html instead of the one above.

Hope this helps :)
