If you are stuck uploading files in FileZilla, where the progress bar keeps repeating but nothing happens, and the status log says “File Transfer failed after transferring XX bytes”, one possible reason is that a limit has been reached on your FTP account. Most likely, the file(s) you were uploading exceeded the disk space quota of the FTP account/user. You can ask the website’s webmaster (or do it yourself if you have access) to change the quota to “Unlimited”, as shown below.
Change the FTP account quota in cPanel
- Go to the server side and sign in to cPanel.
- Find FTP Accounts.
- Find your FTP account, click Change Quota, and increase the Quota (disk space limit). Choose “Unlimited” if possible.
