Files cannot be transferred or appear twice on the server
Issue
Files cannot be transferred or appear twice on the server.
ReasonIf files cannot be transferred or appear twice on the server, it is possible that the server to which you are uploading uses virtual paths, which Dreamweaver's FTP tool cannot read or write to.
Solution
Either get the physical path from your administrator, or use another FTP client.
