Hello, @Coopgrafik

Would you mind checking the current disk space usage on your droplet? You can do that using the following command via ssh:

df -h

I assume you’re experiencing this error in your SFTP client (FileZilla or another). What you can also do is to check that the permissions of the folder are not 000 and are readable, writable - 755 or 750 should work for you.

You can also try to connect using the sftp client in your terminal/command line:

sftp -oPort=custom_port sammy@your_server_ip_or_remote_hostname

in order to get in another directory you can issue this command:

cd testDirectory

If everything is working then this might be an issue with the SFTP client. You can also check this tutorials:

Let me know how it goes.
