Create New Destination - SFTP results in "Error:Unable to create destination dir"
Posted: March 21st, 2019, 10:22 pm
I've setup an FTP backup destination on my server without any issues, however I am trying to setup an SFTP remote backup and it is not working. The same SFTP setup works fine with the WHM Backup program, and I tried removing that in case it was conflicting, but still no go.
It seems like when I hit either Save or Apply, nothing happens. I tried waiting a few minutes and eventually it says "Error:Unable to create destination dir". What I find interesting is that if I give a false password and try again the same error comes up. I have full write permissions to the directory and have it mapped exactly both with and without / at the end has the same result.
Lastly I tried adding an SSH version of the above and am able to connect and use Rsync. It perplexes me why the SFTP fails.
Is this a known bug or what's the usual way of resolving this?
