FTP does not use drive letter, but able to see content

#1

Hey, so I read through another instance of someone having this issue and getting this same error, but their solution didn’t resolve my issue. I’ve tried to set the server to use both active and passive. As well as change the following code to use “/” and “/wwwroot/si”.

"remote_path": "wwwroot/SI",

Even when I change these values, the server still comes back with the same “FTP does not use drive letters in path names”. I’m just looking to get some insight as to whether this can be an issue with the server setup for sublime, or something server side that I’ve missed. This is being used on the Mac OS platform as well, but the server is a windows platform.

Connecting to FTP server "xx.xx.xx.xx" as "user" .. success Validating remote folder "C:/inetpub/wwwroot/SI/" .. failure (FTP does not use drive letters in path names) Initial folder and contents: "/" "/App_Data/" "/aspnet_client/" "/iisstart.htm" "/SI/" "/Thumbs.db" "/welcome.png"

I’ve actually resolved the issue myself. I set the remote_path to use “/” and needed to save the config.json file as sftp-config.json even though it’s using FTP and port 21. I’m not sure if the naming convention of the file actually makes a difference, but I also saved it in the sftp connections folder on sublime so that seemed to do the trick. I guess I have answered my own question :smiley:
