A MKD command for an existing subdirectory should simply produce a 521
error. WeeWX expects this and, if it occurs, moves on. If the FTP server is
behaving properly, it certainly won't terminate the session.
Besides, the error is occurring during a file upload, not while making a
directory.
What FTP server is your host using?
