Now just tried with admin user and SFTP and realized the admin does not seem to have the permissions to create all the directories inside the uploads folder: Command: cd "/srv/www/domain.com/shared/uploads" Response: New directory is: "/srv/www/domain.com/shared/uploads" Command: mkdir…

You can also do a two/three step process: SFTP uploads to /home/admin/uploads SSH in as admin sudo su (use your admin pw) to become root chown -R web:www-data /home/admin/uploads su web (now you’re the web user) Move/copy uploads to proper dir now edit: or some variation of that.
