I think you will need to contact your web host. It looks as if they have turned off your access because of too many password failures. That's a standard security measure.

Seems like a reply from an inexperienced support person. Uninstalling+reinstalling jAlbum doesn't solve this problem. It is an error message that's delivered from the server, but you can try lowering the number of simultaneous transfers/connections under Preferences->Publishing. Set it to 1 and try again. (It will lower the publishing speed but might help)

Sometimes these support people will tell you to spin around in your desk chair three times. They're truly clueless.

I found that with my host, if I went beyond about 5 simultaneous connections, I started getting weird errors (that was with FileZilla, not jAlbum). But it didn't show up as authentication failures - that's the kind of error that has "password problems" written all over it.

Try using another ftp application, like FileZilla, if you still have problems go back to your ISP and tell them it is not jAlbum, if it works report it here.

RobM,
I dont have any problem to connect me through Filezilla ; the problem is only through JAlbum.

If you would prefer a French language version of the upload page try this link - it is not part of the wiki but the information is taken from it and translated into French.

The three items I referred to are:
Change the Account type
If you have problems making a connection try a different account type - see above for how to do this.

Corruption of Account profile
On rare cases an account profile may stop working for no apparent reason. You may try to delete the existing profile and add it again.

Server configuration problems
Configuration for some servers through the GUI may fail for some reason. You may try to modify file .jalbum/accounts.xml with a text editor. Always close jAlbum before doing so.

I'd be very interested in hearing what connection type you've set up in FileZilla if it works there. If you set up the same connection type in jAlbum then it should really work as well in jAlbum as in FileZilla. If not, let me know!
