I Found this entry http://drupal.org/node/330421

Yet it does not seem to be assigning the path the way filefield paths is setup and when used through the default form method.

Any ideas please?

Ah I think I figured it out:

$node = filefield_paths_update($nid, $field_name);
node_save($node);

Will try it now.

This was it
$node = filefield_paths_node_update($row["nid"]);

Massively fantastic :)

The file was not even in the files folder, just some random folder on the server...

Great module.

As i understand $node object should be passed as argument rather than its id, although if you're using node_save you don't really need to call this, filefield_path gets call on node save automatically

/**
 * Implements hook_node_update().
 */
function filefield_paths_node_update(&$node) {
  if (($ffp = filefield_paths_get_fields($node)) !== FALSE) {
  ...

Also if you're using node_save you should pass filefield items likes the following code, otherwise it doesn't 

$node['myfile_field'][0]['data']['process']=true;//workaroudn for getting filefield_paths_node_update to work
