Merged Warning - JFTP: :rename: Bad response - Rename failed error after installation

Hi,

I installed 3.1 on Joomla 3.1 and configured the forum. The installation went fine but when I login or register a new user I am getting

Warning - JFTP: :rename: Bad response - Rename failed

I get this error all the time. What went wrong? Could you please help?

regards

Hello,

Try by disabling FTP layer in Joomla! configuration panel

Thank you. I am not getting this error after disabling FTP. How can I login to FTP site if I would like to transfer the files? Please let me know.

Hello,

You can use a FTP client or use a file management extension for Joomla! : extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-en...ents/file-management

I use FileZilla for all my FTP needs. It's completely free and does everything you could want it to do.

I have the same, and I don't think this is the right solution. I need the FTP layer, and with this solution its not available. Arent there other options?

This topic was originally created in the K 3.0 Installation and Upgrade category. This category is normally used when people have problems with the actual installation process and should not be confused with problems that people may encounter after they have successfully installed Kunena.

This problem relates to user registration. As we have written on this forum before - see the FAQs page where this is written -
I have moved this topic to the Miscellaneous, off-topic and general Joomla category because we are discussing a general Joomla issue.

I am not going to question whether it is a good idea or a bad idea to enable the Joomla FTP layer. There are hundreds of discussions on the Joomla forum that discuss this issue. The point I want to make is that enabling the Joomla FTP layer is not something directly related to Kunena.

I suggest you write to the Joomla forum with the question "Is it a good idea to enable the Joomla FTP layer?" and see what responses you get. Perhaps you might like to summarise the body of opinion about using the Joomla FTP layer and present your findings here.

My own preference is to not enable the Joomla FTP layer on any of my Joomla websites. Like Jiminmonka wrote earlier, I use FileZilla for my FTP needs.

HI!
I have hosting, which has not proper ownership of data. I have ftp layer enabled in Joomla. When I attempt to install Kunena, I get system message:

Error JFTP: :rename: Bad response
Rename failed

In system information /permissions/ section I see, that all directories are unwritable

I am afraid of further problems in future with those settings.
Is this worth of effort, or have i to forgett Kunena on this server/hosting ?
If yes, may i load my own css somehow?
Thank You.

this is a bug and you blow this guy off.. I have same problem... I have installed 2.3 joomla and installed web tab install for extentions and then kunena said success install (which dont mean crap to me so i dont know why you would say oh well it says its ok so lets ignore everyone complaints about a bug)
anywho after then I create a menu item name it forums and then attach it to the kenua menu
goto home page click the link and i get the error...
enough said...something is wrong.. now i will be looking into solving it since appeartly you say its not you.. telling someone to turn off a built in feature of the core joomla isn't a really good response niether...
grow some and say you will look into it or stay off the thread but dont give stupid replies to people cause not everyone is dumb!

her eis a screenshot: prntscr.com/3a8ljc

ps this bug has nothing todo with login or signup!

so to solve this problem goto system information in the admin panel click directory permissions and make sure its al green cause you have a red unwritable in there somewhere..
this should solve your problem...
this is cause kunena dont use the ftp extention to make writes to files its using php to write it...
