Hello, I'm having a problem getting my weekly WHM backup to an external server via FTP connection.

FTP usually connects and even creates the validation file, but when validating it it returns the following error:
Code:
Falha na validação de transporte “FTP”: Could not list files in destination: Cpanel::Exception::InvalidParameter/(XID g4an45) “Cpanel::FileUtils::Permissions::String::str2oct” recebeu uma cadeia de caracteres de permissões inválida: 06-03-19
I have already searched practically on the whole forum and I have not found a solution to this, I have already re-done FTP, I re-created the VM and I can not configure this external backup in any way.

Curious if this is a cPanel update issue as I have a customer with it seems a similar issue.

Error: Validation for transport “Remote” failed: Could not list files in destination: Cpanel::Exception::InvalidParameter/(XID 6zke7z) “Cpanel::FileUtils::Permissions::String::str2oct” was given an invalid permissions string:

I'll keep searching though

Appears that the error was in the message and missed

“Cpanel::FileUtils::Permissions::String::str2oct” was given an invalid permissions string: drw-rw-rw

Customer has not replies with further updates about whether or not they updated the remote FTP permissions as this is a directory likely it should be 766 instead of 666. Thanks!
