Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature, as well as the "How to ask a smart question" link. Saying "do not work" doesn't tell us anything, and please do basic research before posting. Just putting "how to install filezilla on centos 8" into Google pulls up, as one of the VERY FIRST HITS: https://www.letslearntech.com/how-to...at-7-8-fedora/
...complete instructions, with pictures, on how to do exactly what you asked.
@TBOne The information in the link you provided is incorrect. Filezilla is not packaged for EPEL8 yet. Efforts to package it are held up by bz#1809314.
@OP See this thread on CentOS forums. Most options you currently have are listed there.

Had no problems working for me when tried on CentOS 7 or 8.
::edit:: Was incorrect; had the 7 repo enabled, but 8 did fail. Good catch.

Am I right, if I understand that Filezilla will be in EPEL8 or similar repository in the foreseeable future?
That completely satisfies me, I'll survive for a while without Filezilla.
I have tried use another repository, but unsuccessfully. Probably I have make something in wrong way.
Thank you all for your important information.

Most probably.

Since you don't tell us what you did, tried, from where, and how, we have no idea how to advise you.
Well, I don't know how long it will take. The packaging request for Filezilla in EPEL8 was filed in November 2019. About a month ago CentOS started a new repo, Devel, for *-devel packages that are missing in RHEL8, but needed in order to build packages for EPEL8.

So RHEL8 isn't going to fix the -devel issue in a comprehensive way?

From what I've been told, they will look at the CentOS bugs to get an idea of what to put in. But I was told that about these EPEL issues as well. So I'll believe it when I see it.
filezilla depends on libstorj which, in turn, depends on libuv. The package libuv-devel is already in the Devel repo. Register on Bugzilla, subscribe to the packaging request I linked at the top of this post, and politely nag the EPEL maintainers. I'm too lazy for it. I've just rebuilt Filezilla from Fedora Rawhide sources .
