I have the same problem, testing on 2 different hosts.

Try connecting with the login/username you are using for the FTP int he Github Action > confirm that the path is the correct one ( sometimes you can force FTP user to have a different home).

Most likely this is creating the folder / files etc in a different foler (or subfolder).

Also make sure you are not running a dry-run
To be sure, add :

dry-run: false
