Question

No such file or directory

Hello! I’m trying to upload a file from my local machine to the Droplet: but it gives me the error “No such file or directory”.

I’m using scp /Users/username/discord_bot.py root@droplet_address:~/

I’m on a macOS device with Apple Silicon which uses the arm chipset.

Hi there,

The command looks correct but it sounds like the path to the file is not correct, if you were to do an ls -l /Users/username/discord_bot.py do you see the file?

Best,

Bobby
