FTP Username cannot contain pipe = "|"

Discussion in 'General troubleshooting' started by BBWells, Jul 14, 2009.

  1. Hey DASP gurus,
    How do I change my FTP Username? It's not a show stopper cause FileZilla accepts the "|" in the username, but MS Expression Web 2.0 does not. It will not let me get pass the User Name field on the Publish Site Connect box. It would be nice to just sync my site right from MS Expression when I'm done editing pages.

    Thanks,
    Brian
     
  2. Hi,
    This is a bug in versions 1 and 2 but just got fixed in version 3.
    What you can do with version 2 is design your site with it but publish with the free VWD 2008. You can D/L it with the MS Web installer or directly from http://www.asp.net
    All the best,
    Mark
