Hello!

I've been trying to figure out how to send a monthly backup of all trend logs as .csv files and the LM project file to an external FTP server, but with my limited scripting knowledge this has proven to be quite difficult!

Could anyone provide some examples if they have a similar solution?

Thank you Daniel.

Is there a way to store the csv file to an external ftp server on the local network, and not on the LM itself?

I have tried using this example to transfer files to an external ftp server, but I keep getting "FTP upload error: timeout"

Only thing I have changed in the script is username, password and IP address.

Timeout means that LM cannot reach the FTP server. Check if you can ping the server from LM (System config > Status > Network utilities).

I figured it out, it was the firewall on the computer running the FTP server that blocked the connection.
