FTP upload problem just started... "no access"

[messyp...@gmail.com]

This just started, nothing changed, I restarted weewx on the server just in case, but...

Sep 20 06:30:26 PI3BUSB weewx[9261]: ftpupload: Failed to upload file /daytempfeel.png
And it repeats this for every file in public_html. Started 3 days ago. I verified in public_html no file permissions have changed, and the files there are the current ones generated. 

Anyone have any ideas?

There was another thread with just this same problem last week (FTP "550" error). Take a look at it and see if it helps. If not, come back and we'll try again.

If the provider of your web server supports it, I would also recommend switching to  rsync. Much faster and more reliable than FTP.

The problem is that my website provider, one.com, changed their root
configuration and the way they handle ftp vs sftp and they don't know
the ramifications of it all just yet. It's obvious they broke it for
"scripted users using an automated path"... here's his response which
I think is boiler plate:
"In order to be able to show the same files as in SFTP, the file
structure changes so that / is no longer the webspace document root.
This might affect customers using an absolut path for
scripted/automated FTP up/downloads."
Last time I tried to use sftp in weewx 3.9.1 and 3.9.2, it wouldn't
work at all.

I have commented out the FTP lines in both weewx.conf and am now using
the scp utility. It is working, as I told it to recursively take
everything under public_html, and I don't think that leaves anything
out.
The provider has obviously hosed legacy FTP.
