You are putting the pages in the user web page, not the main site web page
;)

try ../../web/

The pages you ftp's are probably in www.somewhere.com/users/user/

Same thing but reversed ;) You are looking in empty user directory, web
pages are in site directory, is the user you are using a site-admin?

It looks something like this:

SiteX/
   web/ - main site web
   users/
      joe/
         web/ - joe's web site AKA /users/joe/

When you connect via ftp as a user, you start in the users directory, so
you have to go up first to get to the main web/ site

[Note that the *first* site is a bit different than this, which is
probably why
you didn't run into this before]
