      <h1>Configure FTP Access</h1>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>XAMPP includes the server version of <a href="https://filezilla-project.org/">FileZilla</a>, an open-source FTP solution. This makes it easy to transfer files to and from a XAMPP environment using FTP.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To illustrate, assume that you have a simple PHP script named <em>example.php</em> on your Windows desktop containing the following code, that you wish to transfer to the XAMPP server.</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>&lt;!-- example.php --&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;&lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
   &lt;h2&gt;&lt;?php echo "Hello. Today is " . date('l'); ?&gt;.&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To transfer files using FTP, you must first configure the FileZilla FTP server. Follow the steps below.</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Ensure that FileZilla is running.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Start the FileZilla administration interface by clicking the "Admin" button in the XAMPP control panel.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image1.png" alt="image1">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the resulting "Connect to Server" dialog box, leave all values at their default values and click "OK".</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image2.png" alt="image2">
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You should now arrive at the FileZilla server console.</p>
</div>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image3.png" alt="image3">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>You now need to set up at least one FTP user. To do this, click the "Edit &#8594; Users" menu item. This will bring you to the user management interface.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image4.png" alt="image4">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Click the "Add" button to add a new user account. Enter a name for the new user account.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image5.png" alt="image5">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select and check the "Password" field and enter a password for the new user.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image6.png" alt="image6">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Next, you need to define which folders the user has access to. To do this, click the "Shared folder" sub-item in the left navigation menu.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Click the "Add" button and select the <em>htdocs\</em> subdirectory of the XAMPP installation directory as the user&#8217;s home directory.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image7.png" alt="image7">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Grant the user all available rights to this directory.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image8.png" alt="image8">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Click "OK" to save your changes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Use the "File &#8594; Quit" menu item to disconnect from the FileZilla administration interface.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You can now transfer files to the XAMPP server by following the steps below:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Launch your FTP client and enter connection details as below.</p>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>If you’re connecting to the server from the same system, use "127.0.0.1" as the host address. If you’re connecting from a different system, use the network hostname or IP address of the XAMPP server.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Use "21" as the port.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Specify the username and password configured previously as your FTP credentials.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Your FTP client should now connect to the server and enter the <em>C:\xampp\htdocs</em> directory, which is the default Web server document root.</p>
</div>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image9.png" alt="image9">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Transfer the file from your home directory to the server using normal FTP transfer conventions. If you’re using a graphical FTP client, you can usually drag and drop the file from one directory to the other. If you’re using a command-line FTP client, you can use the FTP PUT command.</p>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/transfer-files-ftp/image10.png" alt="image10">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once the file is successfully transferred, you should be able to see it in action by browsing to <a href="http://localhost/example.php" class="bare">http://localhost/example.php</a>, as shown below:</p>
