It appears that Trainweb.org has reconfigured their FTP server without 
giving any notice, either on their website or by email to webmasters.

I discovered today that updates to my site www.trainweb.org/nzdiesels 
made by FTP could not be accessed when browsing the site.

The previous configuration information given out by Trainweb.org for FTP 
server was that your FTP client should be set to the following path:

/home/trainorg/public_html/yoursitename

to get to the root directory of your site.

This worked fine up until a few days ago when it appears Trainweb.org 
reconfigured user logins so that the FTP server path to the root 
directory of each user's site would just be /

The instructions on Trainweb.org's site for FTP admittedly if followed 
will set this path by default. However no mention is made of existing 
Trainweb.org customers who would need to change their settings to work 
with the new locations.

The software I use to keep my site up to date by FTP is automated and 
will automatically create the directories if they do not exist without 
generating user error messages. It does this because new directory 
creation is a routine exercise. 

In this case, with no information that the existing site had been 
removed, it created a copy of the files in the old locations as they were 
updated on my computer. The web server on the other hand knows to access 
the new locations, thus no updates can be viewed.
