Cannot upload file due to "FTP does not use drive letters in path names"

#1

Hello if I try to upload a file in sublime on save it gives me this error:

Validating remote folder “/htdocs/” … failure (FTP does not use drive letters in path names)

My ftp account has access to the /htdocs folder server side.

What is wrong here?

thx in advance.

Send a debug log (https://wbond.net/sublime_packages/sftp/support#Generating_a_Debug_Log) to support@wbond.net.

Sorry, made a mistake.
/htdocs folder was already declared as home directory server side.
Didn’t need to specify it in sftp-config.json aswell.
I replaced
"remote_path": "/htdocs"
with
"remote_path": "/"
and it worked.

Thanks for your note. I spent the whole morning trying to find out why it didn’t work and of course… the solution was almost always the simplest but it’s not in sight. Good eye! dude.
