Hello,

To change your publish uri, open the project properties dialog of your AppLife Update project. There you will see a Location to publish updates to: property.  Change that to your desired publish location.

Many http proxy servers wont pass ftp traffic. This could be the case on your network.  You can publish using http or https as long as the server you are using has front page extensions installed.  Use https to avoid packet sniffing.

You can also manually move your update to your server via any means you wish.  Just move the Director.xml and the new update package (x.x.x.x.zip) from your local build folder to your server publish folder.
