Files to MCCC Main Sites
Open FileZilla and navigate to File 🠒 Site Manager… (Ctrl+S)
When the Site Manager window opens, create a new entry by pressing the New site button.
Set a name for the entry e.g. mcccmain prod, then fill in the fields:
Protcol: SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol
Host: web-35311.prod.hosting.acquia.com
Port: N/A
Logon Type: Key file
User: mcccmain.prod
Key file: Browse to your Acquia Cloud SSH key file, make sure it’s in .ppk format.
After everything is filled out, press the Connect button to initiate a connection to the server.
Press OK if the Unknown host key prompt appears. If you set a passphrase for your SSH key, you will enter it at the Enter password prompt.
Once connection is successful, you will see a listing of folders. For MCCC Main, you should see folders called .cache, .drush, .ssh, drush-backups, prod.
Go into the prod folder, then go into the sites folder. You should see a list of folders for each site in the code line.
Navigating into any of the site folders will take you to the files folders where you can directly upload files to the websites. Almost all website files live in the files folder.
