I'm sorry but I cannot reproduce this issue using XXE v10.1 (in which 
the "FTP virtual drive plug-in" is version 2.5.0_02; hence slight 
changes in it compared to version 2.5.0_01).

When I do this:

[webhelp_to_ftp1.png]

It succeeds with this log:

[webhelp_to_ftp2.png]

The only way for me to reproduce the issue you describe is to uninstall 
the "FTP virtual drive plug-in" and restart XXE v10.1, in which case I 
get the same error as you. See:

[webhelp_to_ftp_WHEN_NOT_INSTALLED.png]



My suggestions:

[1] Using "Help|Install add-ons", please pninstall the plugin, restart 
XXE, re-install the plugin, restart XXE, just in case.

[2] Make sure that the "FTP virtual drive plug-in" is actually installed 
and working.

[a] Take a look at the dialog boxes displayed by "Options|Install 
Add-ons", "Uninstall" tab and by "Help|About XMLmind XML Editor", 
"Virtual drive plug-ins" section.

[b] Check "File|Use the URL chooser" and then use "File|Folder|Open 
Folder" to browse your FTP directories. May be this will fail and you'll 
get a better error message.

[3] If [1] and [2] fails, then give XXE v10.1 and its "FTP virtual drive 
plug-in" v2.5.0_02 a try.

[4] If [3] fails, please send me privately (mailto:[email protected]) 
the content of the "Help|About XMLmind XML Editor" dialog box. May be 
I'll see something wrong.
