Only the last one is an error code, the first two are just status messages.

Anyway, you have a permission error, which means the destination server doesn't think you should be allowed to write a file to the location tried. You need to enable write access on the folder in question, often you can do this via your FTP program, by viewing the folder in the FTP program, right clicking on it and going to properties, and you can then set folder permissions.

Try making a subdirectory then uploading into that.

Means your probably trying to upload a file into your root where you don't have rights.

You probably need to go into the public_html folder

Try putting \public_html\ into your ftp as the start folder

If your trying to upload, delete or replace the index, means your server has claimed ownership of the file, and you need to chown it. This happens with some wysiwyg editors as php runs ad admin thus files uploaded by php are owned by php/admin
