Having problem connecting to your ftp accounts? FTP not working? If you received error message like below, then this is a guide for you.
Connection attempt failed with “EAI_NODATA – No address associated with nodename”
When I tried to connect to my own FTP address today, I get the above error message. After doing some searching, I found out that it is a missing A record on the web server. However, there is temporary and easy solution to fix the above issue.
Solution: Type the IP address of your FTP server instead of the domain name in the host field and it will worked.
Note: This error does not always happen. It occurs only when your domain DNS is unable to resolve the name.
