Description of my issue:

i execute remote.phar from a local server running debian squeeze and php 5.3.5:

php remote.phar --action=backup --host=http://xxxxx.xx --secret=xxxx --download --dlmode=curl --dlurl=ftp://[email protected]:[email protected]/path/to/backup --dlpath=/dl/path/inside/local/server --delete

the script do the backup correctly but when is about to download the backup file i get this error

Error #103: Could not download /dl/path/inside/local/server/site-backup.zip -- 9 : Server denied you to change to the given directory

i tried different dlpaths (all valid, with 777 permission, all reachable with filezilla), i tried to store the backup to dropbox, i tried to execute the script in a mac using osx 10.7.5 using different dlpaths, but i always get the same error.
if i change the dlmode to "http" the file is downloaded correctly.

Thanks in advance for your help.

dlpath is the ftp path of the local server, if i change the dlmode to http the file is correctly downloaded inside the specified path.

sorry for the blank post, i cant delete it.

i cant understand what you mean...

dlurl is webserver ftp path, like: dlurl=ftp://user:[email protected]/path/to/backup

dlpath is local server ftp path, like: dlpath=/downloads/remotebackups

should i use a dlpath like: dlpath=ftp://user:[email protected]/path/ ?

i got it, the problem was with dlurl, i had to add www.site.com/path/to/backup, so:
dlurl=ftp://user:[email protected]/www.site.com/path/to/backup

i'm gonna close the ticket
thanks for help and sorry if i have wasted some of your time!
