Hi There

Apologies for the late reply, wordpress didn’t notify me of anything. Can you perhaps copy and paste the debug messages here?

Some background though:

Remote capabilities is done by uploading a file to the folder specified .. usually /public_html or /www or /html. The script is then called on your server by using URL/remote-capabilities.php .. In other words, if you uploaded to /public_html/somefolder then your url must be http://www.somedomain.com/somefolder for it to be able to access http://www.somedomain.com/somefolder/remote-capabilities.php .. if it doesn’t then the script should kick out

The script checks the following .. does the server have ZipArchive module installed and if the php isn’t running in safe mode .. if either one is not enabled on your local and destination server then it falls back to uploading each file individually (ZipArchive disabled) or to a custom php based MySQL database dump and import (MySQL system dump/import disabled) .. this means that even if remote capabilities fail the live server deploy should continue to do its thing ..

MOST LIKELY DIAGNOSIS

so it most likely that your URL doesn’t include “http://” or the full URL doesn’t point to the folder the ftp is uploading to .. i.e “/” is usually not the public html content folder

[edit]
let me know if this helps, otherwise send me your debug output and I’ll try to recreate the issue
