That error would probably mean your FTP login settings are incorrect. Check your code and make sure you entered the correct username/password/url settings in the code.

Thanks for the reply . I managed to do everthing right now but for my application i have a loading form at start then activation comes up then i enter serial key and it restarts again and the main form after the loading is after the activation. How can i make it so i opens the main form after i activate it and in the next launch it doesnt show the activation form and takes it straight from loading to the main form. Please help.

Thanks

You can make a setting in My.Settings, which is a boolean, set it to False, and call it "activated"

Then, after it is activated, add this code under it:
Code: Select all
My.Settings.activated = True
Next, on your activation Form_Load event, add this code at the beginning:
Code: Select all
If My.Settings.activated Then
'Event that happens when activated
Elseif My.Settings.activated = 0 Then
'Event that happens when not activated
End If

Thanks for the reply will this code be on my main form which is after the activation?

This is all great, quality. But what always happens to me is that whenver the user copies the installed app to another directory, the settings (My.Settings) will also be created with their standard value, and in this case it probs will extend their registration for 30 more days ... unlucky mate
