FTP-Repository: Can't change directory

[rellp]

Hi all,

Since 8.1 I'm unable to change the FTP-Repository directory:


In Domains > mydomain.com > BackupManager > FTP Account Settings

FTP server hostname or IP: myexternalbackupspace.com

Directory to store backups: /testdir


When I'm trying to change '/testdir' (which is actually the dir) to '/' plesk writes: Failed to write test data to the FTP account ftp://myexternalbackupspace.com/: delete error: RETR failed: 425.

On other domains I can use the '/' for backups.

Any ideas?

r.

This worked for us, it might help you.


Remove the leading "/" from the directory name. That is, if you want to put something in a directory, just type the directory, not /directory.

If you want it in the FTP user's root, just make the directory box blank. No /
