Uploading after connecting - access denied but perms are good

Post by jbrogan »

I have a unique setup and love CoreFTP for the flexibility in configuration.

I have a windows 10 laptop that is connected via RaiDrive to Google Drive. I can hand upload files from the laptop to google drive without a problem. It's drive Z on the laptop and looks/acts like a regular drive. Uploading is problem free.

So I wanted to see if I could SCP (or SFTP) a file via CoreFTP to the same Google Drive (Drive Z on the laptop).

I have drive Z as the home directory for the user i'm logging in with. I can log in fine.

But when I try to upload a file I get a permission denied error.

So i am trying via scp -v so i can see what it may be saying on the end of the connection, see below.

Any ideas what I can try so I can upload to drive Z: using CoreFTP and the user? Thanks.
