Vesta Control Panel - Forum

I am trying to move a user to a new server,
I setup the server,
changed the default ssh port
installed vesta
now I am ready to bring in the user.
I am following the instructions here: http://vestacp.com/docs/#how-to-migrate ... her-server
but I keep getting a Permission denied error.

I tried to upload the files with filezilla through ssh but it gives me a permission denied error.

I think it might be because the folder is owned by root, and I can't ssh with root to the server to upload my backup.
I also tried to ssh to the folder with the admin (first vesta account) but failed too.

any ideas how can I upload my backup to restore it?

using ubuntu.

thanks
