I had a problem with the connection from Filezila FTP to InfinityFree. I solved it by entering the RIGHT (Your vPanel Password) password. This instruction is not correct.
You can find the right password in the tab “Your Accounts” in InfinityFree → Press on the button manage on the wished accound —> Scroll down and u will see the FTP details tab. There u can find FTP Password.
This password is random generated by the system and it can’t be changed!!!
This is absolutely stupid option!
Admins, please add the correct information for the FTP connection in the section for recommended FTP Clients Software!
Filezilla you can try the site manager option. Fill in the username and password and hostname, and next time it autofills for u
(And don’t care about insecure plain ftp, just don’t care about it for now.)
Your vPanel password and your FTP password are the same. However, it’s important to note that vPanel is the panel on cpanel.epizy.com. The client area on app.infinityfree.net is not vPanel, and has different login details from vPanel.
The password is randomly generated if you don’t enter your own password when creating your account. And you can change it through the Edit Account menu. Either to a new random password, or to - again - something you enter yourself. But we recommend using randomly generated passwords.
Unfortunately, we didn’t build vPanel and cannot change most of the texts in it. We did build the client area ourselves. So we cannot change that information, and the vPanel devs cannot change it to fit our specific use case, because the information would be incorrect for everyone else.
