Filezilla - Error 13 Download Cannot be created

Hi,

I have latest Filezilla and trying to download folders from a shared server online.

When I drag or 'Download' the folder I need I get the Error 13 cannot Create. Permission Denied.

I am downloading to the folder of a html site www/html/mysite/public_html

How can I overcome this please so I can still up/download whilst in Filezilla, not the Terminal?

I think that the issue is that the folder in question is still in Root. So, you are downloading as normal user and it is accessing an elevated user folder.
Could you try
Code:
cd /
sudo mkdir <FOLDER>

Or maybe
Code:
sudo su
at the outset.

Thanks. The latter one I think worked somehow. Not sure because I did it a different way but will try again tomorrow.

Yes, as long as you are elevating privileges to Root.

When I first saw the thread I thought it might have been a firewall issue:

HI,

I see there is a new version of Filezilla which is the only one supported by them according to their forum mod.

I tried to get it but see here it said 3.28.0 is the latest.

david@david-HP-Compaq-6000-Pro-MT-PC:~$ sudo apt-get install filezilla
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
filezilla is already the newest version (3.28.0-1).


I have download the

FileZilla_3.46.3_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz2


But not sure how to install it.

First I would uninstall your current version then follow the guide here:

https://thelinuxcode.com/install-tar-gz ... ges-linux/

But not sure how to install it.

Thank you.

I uninstalled FZ

sudo apt-get remove filezilla

then in Downloads folder where I had FileZilla_3.46.3_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz2

unzipped FZ

Code:
david@david-HP-Compaq-6000-Pro-MT-PC:~/Downloads$ tar -jxvf FileZilla_3.46.3_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
FileZilla3/
FileZilla3/share/
FileZilla3/share/filezilla/
FileZilla3/share/filezilla/docs/
FileZilla3/share/filezilla/docs/fzdefaults.xml.example

david@david-HP-Compaq-6000-Pro-MT-PC:~$ sudo apt-get update

So 10 millions lines of code came down then as per instructions..
https://thelinuxcode.com/install-tar-gz ... ges-linux/

david@david-HP-Compaq-6000-Pro-MT-PC:~/Downloads$ ./configure
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory


so tried this

david@david-HP-Compaq-6000-Pro-MT-PC:~/Downloads$ ./configure FileZilla_3.46.3_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory


So I cannot get past that ./configure command.

Should I uninstall what i just did, and start again with another install method?

Nothing seems to be easy in Linux. Shame because I really enjoy it, until the snags that is..

Previous to "./configure"
You got this message in terminal:
"filezilla is already the newest version (3.28.0-1)."
This is saying that Filezilla is installed.

Filezilla 3.28 is available in the Ubuntu Repository.
In terminal, please try
Code:
sudo apt-get install -y filezilla

and that should install it.

IF it claims that filezilla is already installed, let's ensure a clean installation:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge filezilla

then
Code:
sudo apt-get install -y filezilla

Don't know what went wrong ozstar, somehow your post got to the clipboard instead of my original link. Found this alternative:
