 |
|
Hi,
I'm trying to upload some files using SFTP. However my SFTP-client tells me that my upload failed and there is an empty file created in my uploadfolder. Downloading works fine.
In my /var/log/messages I find the following:
| Code: |
Jan 16 21:36:22 myserver sftp-server[3385]: error: process_write: write failed
Jan 16 21:36:22 myserver sftp-server[3385]: error: process_write: write failed
Jan 16 21:36:22 myserver sftp-server[3385]: error: process_write: write failed

Have you verified that you have write permissions to the directory you're uploading to? Try uploading something to /tmp. That should be 777.

Yes, I tested it with the home-directory of my user and with /tmp. Both times the upload fails. |

Try increasing the log verbosity of the sftp-server subsystem. Adding this line to /etc/ssh/sshd_config would set a DEBUG loglevel.
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/misc/sftp-server -l DEBUG
This should help you to find the problem.

I'm still getting the same messages in my logs...
| Code: |
Jan 17 22:04:40 myserver sshd[27838]: subsystem request for sftp
Jan 17 22:05:31 myserver sftp-server[27839]: error: process_write: write failed
Jan 17 22:05:31 myserver sftp-server[27839]: error: process_write: write failed
Jan 17 22:05:31 myserver sftp-server[27839]: error: process_write: write failed
|
And that's all  |

Does SCP work?
Can you strace the process on the server side to watch what happens?

I found my problem:
No problem with processes, libraries, etc...
I simply ran out of space...    |
