FTP Mirroring with Codeigniter creates folder, but no files uploaded
I'm posting an answer to my own question because the problem was my own ignorance.
private $server_folder = 'my_server_directory/';
should have been
private $server_folder = '/my_server_directory/';
I swear I tried that syntax while trouble shooting my problem, but I must have changed something else too that broke the mirroring at the same time, hiding the answer from me.
Thanks for your comments and answers @Damien Pirsy and @ Edinho Almeida.
If
$this->ftp->mkdir()works fine, I'm sure that your permission settings are ok.
If
$this->ftp->list_files()works fine, I'm sure that your connection settings are ok too.
I guess your SQL backup files are starting with dot
