    Uploading phpBB on server

    Hello, I am trying to upload phpBB forum software, and I am using FileZilla, everytime I try to connect to the server, it comes up "connection failed".
    Command: USER [my account username]
    Response: 331 User [my account username] OK. Password required
    Command: PASS **************
    Response: 530 Login authentication failed
    Error: Critical error
    Error: Could not connect to server
    what am I doing wrong here?

    Thanks,

    What server address are you trying to connect to? And for your username and password, make sure that it's your cPanel username and password.

    For the server address, use chopin.x10hosting.com instead.

    At the top where it says Host, Username, Password, and Port.

    Host: chopin.x10hosting.com
    Username: cPanel username
    Password: cPanel password
    Port: 21
