Unable to upload files remotely

Featured Replies

A quick question. I am practicing with the latest version (2.5) The Demo, unregistered yet, but unable to upload files using IWP remotely. It says " For security reasons, you can not upload files remotely" :

Is this my FMP server 10 setting or is this the Supercontainer server setting ?? any help is appreciated.

I am playing around with the example file provided in the dowload "SuperContainer Example" .

My FMS is 10, on mac. My remote machine is Windows XP. I am using IWP to access the DB to upload files.

Thank you in advance.

I believe that this is related to your server settings, not SuperContainer. Please check your FileMaker Server settings, as well as your folder permissions settings for your SuperContainer folder on your server machine. Both "fmsadmin" and "fmserver" should have read/write privileges for that folder.

There should be no issues because you are accessing a mac machine from a windows machine.

Is this server publicly available? If so, I'd like to try doing an upload from my own computer and see if I get the same error message.

Thank you all for your help. The problem was my router and port access.
