**Old XP machine**

Virtual Machine

FinalBuilder V7.0.0.787

Windows XP

**New machine:**

Virtural machine

Finalbuilder 7.0.0.2183

Windows Server 2012 Standard

&nbsp;

I&nbsp;created a new HYPER-V virtual machine using windows server&nbsp;and copied my final builder project files from the old XP machine to the new XP machine.&nbsp; The project still works fine on my XP machine.

When I try to do a FTP connect, change directory, and then a FTP upload, the upload errors out.&nbsp; The connect and change directory are successful.&nbsp; The connection and&nbsp;change directory&nbsp;seem slow compared to the old XP machine as well.

When I installed Filezilla to the new server machine and upload a file to the site it works fine.

I did notice that when I was trying to troubleshoot the issue I&nbsp;created a completely new project and only had one command that was to connect to the FTP site I was sometimes getting a Socket Error # 10060

Unfortunately when it fails it just says "Upload Failed" and there are no error codes or anything listed.

Because it works with filezilla I am assuming that it should be working with finalbuilder as well.

Any thoughts on what to try?&nbsp; Should I uninstall finalbuilder and install the old version?&nbsp; Change a setting somewhere?

Thanks!

This is more than likely a firewall issue. Socket error 10060 is a connection timeout. Windows server 2012’s firewall is much more restrictive than XP.
