Im also all of a sudden having problems exporting to FTP in 6.5

shanew316 · 10-07-2006, 03:28 PM

I cannot export 7 day lineups and promotions from either my work computer, or my home computer? I have been able to obviously in the past, but both computers have recently been upgraded...is there something i am missing in the settings or something?

This is a problem for me as well. I am a commissioner and many of my people are complaining that their promos, position changes and 7-day lineups are not taking.

I am also finding out that people are exporting guys in DFA and they are ending up importing in to AAA. This has never happened before in my 15+ seasons as commish.

Don't hold your breath for answers, I have 2 or 3 questions asked within the last month and nothing but crickets.

I've had personal experience with 3 people now who have had this problem spring up the last few weeks. In all 3 cases they were victim of a Microsoft update that either changed their firewall settings or turned the MS firewall on when it was previously off.

You can fix this in a couple ways.

Roll back vis System Restore to a point where you FTP was working. Or go to Control Panel go to Security Center and turn off the MS firewall. Its a piece of crap anyway and as long as you are using a router its completely unneccesary.

I have done all those things, and they still did not work, any suggestions?

thanks in advance!

Buy the new version, it's what they prefer.

Seriously, I haven't updated my computer in a while. Not everyone in my league is having this issue, just a handful. The exports take, just not position changes, promotions or, in some cases, guys exported in DFA get imported into AAA. It's not a firewall issue, it's a game issue. But they have nothing to gain by looking at it, so just deal.

Still having the issue, some guys exporting waiver claims that work, others won't (doesn't give error, just doesn't import). Guys being exported in DFA, end up importing in minors, people can't export position changes, promos. Nothing groundbreaking, just annoying. I figure since you guys are still charging money for 6.51 you could at least chime in once a month with some help.

Bump.

I'm one of the ones having trouble with my exports not taking up correctly. We are all using 6.51a (at least myself and the commish) and I cannot get anyone to stick on waivers or make waiver claims through my export.

Anyone have a solution?
