Doug, thanks for the answer.

It is not a permission issue. With the same credentials I am able to create
directories in the same path using FileZilla FTP client.

The issue is easy to replicate if you will try to use --ftp-create-dirs when
uploading a file to a SFTP sourceforge.net account.

That could be a permissions problem on the host. I donno about Windows but in
UNIX you would need write access to the directory in which you are creating a
subdirectory.

Hello Troll,
a late answer, but perhaps still helpful:
How about creating the config file by a shell script / batch file on the fly 
(example not tried, just as idea) ?
echo -u username:password > configfile.txt
echo -T "%APPDATA%\\file.rar" >> configfile.txt
echo --url ftp://myhost.com/directory/ >> configfile.txt
curl -K configfile.txt
Then you can write into configfile.txt everything the shell / DOS offers, not 
depending on build in functionality of curl...
Best regards,
Martin

  I would like to do it but I'm not a programmer, I'm an end-user who searches 
for a tiny command-line ftp tool that accepts file_to_upload parameter from a 
config file and recognizes win envir vars in it !!

  Oh right, that's correct. curl makes not attempts of converting such a thing.
  > How to use Windows environment variables in config file ?
  There's currently no way to make it do so. It also doesn't recognize other 
system's environment variables...
  I guess we should consider adding this. You up to working on this for Windows?
