I get error ~ Bulk item failed: ftp: FTP CWD failed: 550 Failed to change directory
Test FTP server is ok:
~ Cloud config OK: ftp
~ Testing FTP to 192.168.1.50:1333 from PS5...
~ FTP control login and passive data port OK

I spun up a docker ftp 192.168.1.50 port 1333. Access successful with winscp, and the root folder is /ftp/, I create a folder /ftp/PS5/ for cloud backup. using browser ftp://192.168.1.50:1333/, the root is / and data folder would be ftp://192.168.1.50:1333/PS5/

PS5 firmware 12.00 on Garlic save v1.13:
[tick] Enable Cloud Backup
Provider: FTP
Entering ftp host ip/domain and login information with path /ftp/PS5/ (also tried /PS5/ it gave the same error)
Backup Destinations:
[tick] FTP

I went back to BROWSE tab. select PPSA01949, click on cloud button. Then got error below:
~ Starting cloud backup for all saves in PPSA01949...
~ Cloud backup running in background...
~ PMCloud backup: Uploading title PPSA01949
~ Cloud backup failed: ftp: FTP CWD failed: 550 Failed to change directory.

Update #1:
It turned out that my Linux machine has permission issue with the login credential. make sure you check your ftp's host OS permission to allow read/write on the ftp login accounts. Now game save is working as intended.
