I have the same problem. After I updated from RW7 to RWClassic I can not upload anything to my pages any more.

Good evening,

all my webprojects do not work anymore since I updatet to Classic last week.

I have doublechecked all information related to the host. Together we have checked all publishing information. Everything is as it should be. A testrun says that RW has contact  
to my webspace on the server. But if I try to upload any information … the upload stopps with the 5th file.

- my host is HostEurope since many years. I am still wit them because this enterprise is very reliable.

- Last week I upgraded to RW Classic.

- my MacOS is Sonoma 14.5 on a MacMini from 2020 … Apple M1 Chip.

- The latest file which I tried to upload is 742 kb (I just began it)

- On this project I do not use any addons at all. I use the theme « Lumilite"

- Messages of publishing errors are attached to this mail.

This is the problem, it’s not possible to upload to Host Europe over FTPS using RapidWeaver’s built-in publishing. You have to use SFTP instead, however not all Host Europe plans offer SFTP, for example their base/starter plan does not.

The only solutions are to either upgrade your hosting plan with Host Europe so that you have SFTP, change to another hosting provider, or use a third-party FTP client to upload your site to your current Host Europe account.

There is another thread [here](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/publishing-problems-with-host-europe-gmbh/42796) that goes over it in more detail.
