Connection attempt failed with "EAI_NODATA - No address associated with nodename" in filezilla

filezilla

I get the following error when I try to use Filezilla to connect to newly created domain:

Connection attempt failed with "EAI_NODATA - No address associated with nodename"

I purchased domain name from "Bigrock.com" and purchased net space from "125mb.com". I have already changed the name servers in the cpanel of "bigrock" to the "125mb" name-servers. I have also uploaded the files in cpanel of "125mb".

When I open filezilla, I provide values as shown here:

host : koshh.co.in (this is the domain name I purchased)
username : *******
password : *******
Port : (default)

I was getting the same error trying to connect to host name in FileZilla:

ftp.news.domain.com

I changed to:

news.domain.com

And worked.

it simply means your domain name is not resolving, if domain is registered newly, then wait at least 4 to 8 hours (recommended 24-48 hours).

If you have been provided with IP address with your web hosting account details, then you can use IP address instead of domain name (ex. ftp.your-domain-name.xom)

If everything above is already tried out then you should contact your web hosting provider and your domain name registrar for further assistance.
