sftp – Error in FTP connection using domain name, username and password?

sftp – Error in FTP connection using domain name, username and password?

I had this error too. My domian name was a subdomain like xxx.yyy.com
And cpanel ftp configuration guided me that ftp server is ftp.xxx.yyy.com
Fillzilla was unable to connect and showed this error:

Connection attempt failed with EAI_NONAME – Neither nodename nor
servname provided, or not known.

This error is for dns resolving. I just removed ftp. from ftp.xxx.yyy.com and it works now

Remove ftp. from HOST name. e.g. if your website is http://www.example.com & you are using ftp.example.com then try with example.com only as host name…. it simply worked with me!

It is Name resolution error. your domain name is not correct. Check for spelling mistakes or try using the IP address. You can use ping mydomain.com in windows to find out ip address of your server.
