## Automate FTP uploads
## Go to destination
cd C:\Test
$location = Get-Location
"We are here: $location"
## Get files
$files = Get-ChildItem -recurse  
## Get ftp object
$ftp_client = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$ftp_address = "ftp://user:pass@adress:/home/chardcastle/test"
## Make uploads
foreach($file in $files)
{
    
    $directory = "";
    $source = $file.DirectoryName + "\" + $file;
    if ($File.DirectoryName.Length -gt 0)
    {
        $directory = $file.DirectoryName.Replace($Location,"")
    }
    $Directory += "/";
    $FtpCommand = $ftp_address + $directory + $file
   
    $uri = New-Object System.Uri($ftp_command)
    "Command is " + $uri + " file is $source"
    $ftp_client.UploadFile($uri, $source)
}

$FtpCommand and $ftp_command...

This is a really great script. Helped me save a lot of time. Fakir Hossain

Line 24, remove the underscore

I get the following Error, can you please help ?

New-Object : A constructor was not found. Cannot find an appropriate
constructor for type System.Uri.

This script is not working and wasted 1 hour, Use this script, https://www.kittell.net/code/powershell-ftp-upload-directory-sub-directories/ (it just works great) for me
