NOAA report FTP setting?

Is there a 'documentation' error on the NOAA report settings page?

When setting the path to the reports location on the web server it says that the path is relative to the path defined in the FTP settings - but this doesn't work! I have to put the full path (e.g. /var/www/html......../NOAA) to get the transfer to work.

I seem to remember V1 of CumulusMX required full path name didn't it?

You shouldn't need the full path. my full path would be like:

/share/htdocs/weather/NOAA-Reports - however

my FTP is: /htdocs/weather

and my ftp NOAA entry is like:

/htdocs/weather/NOAA-Reports

this really depends on where you ftp account defaults too when logging in.
