Append line to existing file on FTP

[Trond Hoyem]

Hi

I am struggling with appending a line at the end of an existing CSV located on a FTP-server.
I have looked as this example for guidance; https://openrb.com/example-export-last-h...-from-lm2/

My problem is that when I try to append the extra line, I always get "Access denied", even though I am sure that the user and password is OK. I have tried to modify the fila path to see the result, and then I get "not found, as is logical since the path is wrong. To me is seems that I am able to find the file, just not access it.

The file is created with another script, using the same user and password (I have copied it from the creation script). The creation of the script works perfect. 

Any ideas?

The code I have is;

Code:

require('socket.ftp')

--FTP-fil med fullstendig bane. Bruker og passord må være satt opp rett i FTP på mottakersiden
ftpfile = storage.get('ftpFileName', ftpfile)

log(ftpfile)
--Formatterer tid og dato for å legge inn i logger senere.
now = os.date('*t')
time = {
day = wday,
hour = now.hour,
minute = now.min,
second = now.sec,
}

if time.hour < 10 then time.hour = '0' .. time.hour end
if time.minute < 10 then time.minute = '0' .. time.minute end
if time.second < 10 then time.second = '0' .. time.second end

klokke = time.hour .. ':' .. time.minute .. ':' .. time.second

  value = tostring(grp.getvalue(addr))
  value = value:gsub('%.', ',')
  logLine = logLine .. ';' .. value
  --log(value)
end

buffer = {logLine}
log(buffer)

if #buffer > 0 then
  data = table.concat(buffer, '\r\n')
  res, err = socket.ftp.put({
    host = '192.168.0.188',
    user = 'user',
    password = 'password',
    command = 'appe',
    argument = ftpfile,
    source = ltn12.source.string(data)
  })
end

if err then
  alert('FTP upload error: %s', tostring(err))

Nevermind. I found it. There was a mistake in the file name after all....
