Thanks Tom Yes all the files are in /var/www/html/weewx
If I understand you correctly, this has more to do with the file path of the remote host server. I am at a loss to understand what is going on at that end. I upload my webcam pic every five minutes using curl but if I use the same credentials on weewx.conf, I get a "login authentication failed" message. By setting up a separate ftp account with a different login but otherwise the same , I can at least connect but I either get a message as you have seen or a 'broken pipe' message if I play around with the file path. I guess this is more to do with the remote server than weewx but thanks for your advice.
