I am trying to connect to a remote host in PhpStorm 9 via FTP and it connects to the host but does not display any files/directories.

I am able to ftp and see files/directories just fine via FileZilla with the same ftp profile/settings I used in PhpStorm 9.

Why am I not able to see files/directories via FTP in PhpStorm 9?

1) Double check the login details/IPs 2) Make sure that you are seeing correct folder 3) Make sure that you are using correct connection (in case if you have more than one set up) 4) Try switching between Active and Passive FTP modes. - LazyOne
