E_Warning: ftp_login(): Maximum number of tries exceeded

[MichaelParticipant]

Hey there

Hope somebody know what this might cause, because i’m stucked.

Recently I stumbled on this issue on all my pages running with UpdraftPlus, and FTP remote storage. 1 month ago I changed my password on this FTP server, and then I also changed this password in updraft settings.

When I go and connect to the FTP server via. Filezilla, all is okay – but not when I try with updraft.

See this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/fsz0WBx.jpg

Have not made any changes to the FTP server, beside the change of password of 1 user. Can see here that there is some other users reporting this issue, but for over 2 years ago: https://updraftplus.com/forums/topic/php-event-maximum-number-of-tries-exceeded/

Best regards from Denmark

Hi Michael,

Sorry for the delay!

That error message is originating from the FTP server, not from UD – as such, you need to look at the NAS configuration, for where its settings for lockouts is.

Thanks,
Harshad

Hi there Harshad

That’s okay :)

Yes I have also seen other threads about this, and gone trough the settings. The only thing i have changed, is the password. And that is working properly, so I don’t know.

But I have found another way using Google Drive, so all is okay :)

Thanks for the replay back to me, and thanks for a lovely plug-in.
Very useful!
