I’m working with File Zilla to transfer the files.
By now I guess he the one who makes the config folder dissapear. Have you ever heard of something like that? or can you recommend an other tool to upload files? I tried Cyberduck, but won’t work.
Thanks -

Thank’s a lot for your help, but strawberry allready repaired my mistakes, so by now i’m fine, just thinking about what is the best way to save such a running system, so I can go back when things go wrong and I found out things go very quick wrong :)
So have a nice day and Thank you
