Hello!

It seems that you typed:

vim ftp://datamigo@192.168.0.46/myweb/

but there is no directory or file named "myweb" on that system; there is
a directory named joomlight-3.x and a file named test.php, but its under
the home directory, not myweb.

You then selected joomlight-3.x with a <cr>; this resulted in netrw
trying ftp with:

vim ftp://datamigo@192.168.0.46/myweb/joomlight-3.x/

Of course, since there's no directory called "myweb", there's no
directory called "myweb/joomlight-3.x" either.

You then selected test.php with a <cr>; this resulted in netrw trying
ftp with:

vim ftp://datamigo@192.168.0.46/myweb/test.php

Again, there is no myweb directory, and so there's no myweb/test.php file.

However, netrw should issue a message about this problem, so please try
v151f which does so.
