If you follow the instructions on a fresh AWS instance, does it work? It does for me.

Yes, I have a website with files loaded on S3 bucket.
Now using WinSCP is so convenient, it also can upload only the changed files.
So I followed the instruction, I was expecting to see the files I have already uploaded in the /mnt/<my bucket> folder. I don't see them

Did you upload a file to S3 bucket using WinSCP (using S3 protocol)?
And then you have mounted the same S3 bucket to an AWS Linux server using s3fs?

Friends, I am new so please excuse if this is too basic!
I want to copy files from my machine to my bucket on S3 Amazon using WinSCP
I followed the instructions completely as mentioned here: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_amazon_s3_sftp

So my expectation was that if I do
cd /mnt/<my bucket>
I would see my currently uploaded file. Am I understanding it right? but I am seeing no files in this directory.

Is the mount done right? How do I verify?
