If I use IdFTP1->ChangeDir("/Sub1"); this is fine and I can Get data from this folder. I then want to change to subfolder /Sub2. Do I do this? IdFTP1->ChangeDir("/Sub2"); or should it be"./Sub2" or "../Sub2". Ive tried all combinations I can think of but to no avail.

If I change directory to sub1 I can put and get files from it. If I try to change directory to the other sub-directory, and try to 'Put' a file to it, I get an error telling me that an exception has been raise type EIdProtocolReplyError with message 'log.dbf'Append/Restart not permitted. This happens on the following line:- IdFTP1->Put("c:\\awsmon\\data\\log.dbf","log.dbf",true); I have tried changing directory back to the root first, but get the same error each time. Sub2 is empty so I am not trying to append to an existing file, however, there is a 'log.dbf' file in Sub1 so it looks as if it hasn't change directory.

I got the folders the wrong way round. Thanks for your patience. David "David Ayre" <davidcayre (AT) ntlworld (DOT) com> wrote: Quote: Hi Remy, Sub1 and Sub2 are both subdirectories of the root.

Quote: Sub1 and Sub2 are both subdirectories of the root. Then both ChangeDir('/Sub2') and ChangeDir('../Sub2') (while in Sub1) should be working fine. Quote: If I try to change directory to the other sub-directory, and try to 'Put' a file to it, I get an error telling me that an exception has been raise type EIdProtocolReplyError with message 'log.dbf'Append/Restart not permitted. There is your answer then. The user account that you loged in with does not have permission to upload files into Sub2. That has nothing to do with ChangeDir(), or even with TIdFTP at all. That is a configuration issue on the server side.
