Chances are that while you've been using FileZilla you've also come across the ECONNREFUSED — connection refused by a server error. If that's the case — great that you've found this tutorial! I am going to show you three methods that might help you with resolving this FTP error.
The error could appear due to using the incorrect port while connecting through FileZilla. In this situation, you just need to change the default FTP port to the default SFTP port number. Simply change 21 to 22 on the "Port" input box.
Sometimes this error can occur when anti-virus software and/or firewall is refusing FileZilla's tries to make a connection.
In the event where anti-virus or firewall is causing ECONNREFUSED, what you need to do is simple. What you need to do: disable anti-virus and firewall and try to connect again. Firstly I'll show you how to do this on macOS :
If you're using Windows, follow these steps:
For a thorough explanation of how to deactivate various anti-virus software, take a look at this post.
If turning off the anti-virus or firewall doesn't help and you still get the ECONNREFUSED — connection refused by the server error — try the following method.
What should you do if the previous solutions don't bring the desired result? To fix the error, you can try altering FileZilla's network configurations:
At this point, you need to ensure that you've made correct configurations. Hit the "Test" button to let FileZilla try to make a connection to probe.filezilla-project.org and it will perform some simple benchmarks.
If the test goes without any failures, attempt to connect to your hosting account once more. It should work perfectly well. In case the "ECONNREFUSED" error repeats itself, you should try reaching out to your hosting customer support to get some help.
There you go — three methods of fixing ECONNREFUSED — connection refused by server error. Hopefully, one of these three methods will help you to fix this FileZilla error! If you have questions or more solutions for this error, do not hesitate to leave a comment!
