FTP connection fails on "next", works on test

Hello,

So I'm trying to connect to a website and I can browse the files through the root path selector. "Test FTP connection" is also going absolutely fine.

However, whenever I click "next" as to store the deployment, it says

"Connection to <server> failed.
 HEAD method failed for <website> with HTTP status 500."

Basically, I can't save the deployment server even though it's working in 'testing'?
It's working fine through filezilla and such.

Thanks for any help in advance!

Ben

Whelp, I just solved it myself... ish. Sorry.

I had to click ignore http connection to make it work. However, I'm still left curious as to why this is... I've never had this issue before!

Hello,

When you create deployment server from new project dialog, it also tries to test the web server there. Ports might be not working or there might be no web server at all so this was a correct workaround. There's no such thing when creating deployment server configuration from File | Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment menu.
