Thanks andryk, that was real quick.
I executed that on a small folder, and the first command worked properly. However, the second one is giving error:
missing 'd' option
Cannot create directory for <mainlog> (errno:2)
missing 'd' option
Cannot create directory for <BACKUP> (errno:2)
missing 'd' option
Cannot create directory for <BACKUP> (errno:2)
missing 'd' option
Cannot create directory for <BACKUP> (errno:2)

Any ideas?

curlopt_ftp_create_missing_dirs
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS - create missing dirs for FTP and SFTP
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
typedef enum {
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_NONE,
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR,
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_RETRY
} curl_ftpcreatedir;
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS,
long create);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long telling libcurl to create the dir. If the value is CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR (1), libcurl will attempt to create any remote directory
that it fails to "move" into.
For FTP requests, that means a CWD command fails. CWD being the command that changes working directory.
For SFTP requests, libcurl will attempt to create the remote directory if it can't obtain a handle to the target-location. The creation
will fail if a file of the same name as the directory to create already exists or lack of permissions prevents creation.
Setting create to CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_RETRY (2), tells libcurl to retry the CWD command again if the subsequent MKD command fails. This is
especially useful if you're doing many simultaneous connections against the same server and they all have this option enabled, as then CWD
may first fail but then another connection does MKD before this connection and thus MKD fails but trying CWD works!
DEFAULT
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_NONE (0)
PROTOCOLS
FTP and SFTP
EXAMPLE
TODO
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.10.7. SFTP support added in 7.16.3. The retry option was added in 7.19.4.
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if the create value is not.
