I followed the instructions on the publish your site with dreamweaver page and when I went to "put" my site the following error message came up:
An FTP error occured. cannot open server folder public_html/. Access denied. The file does not exist or there could be a permission problem.

Hello shanaran,

I checked your permissions for the public_html folder and they are correct. You will want to ensure that you have the server set up prior to attempting to publish the site.

The server setup instructions can be found int he link below:

Configure Main Domain Server Settings in Dreamweaver CS5

Or, if you are working with an addon domain instead, follow these instructions:
Configure Addon Domain Server Settings in Dreamweaver CS5

I followed those instructions first and it said connection was successful.

Oh! So I tried reconnecting main domain server and it gave me the same error message there too!

Hello shanaran,

I recommend double checking your FTP settings to make sure they are correct.

If you problems still persist, contact live support so they can review the server log while you are connecting.

If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.
Thank you,
