Bengt Rodehav commented on CAMEL-6309:
--------------------------------------
When looking closer at the FileUtil.compactPath() method I notice that it uses
the normalizePath() method which in turn does some weird checking of operating
system to determine what separator to use. This functionality checks the local
operating system (where Camel is running) but does not take into account what
separator is being used on the remote server (the sftp server in my case).
The FileUtil class is a generic class that does not know anything about any
remote file system's separator - and I don't think it should. Therefore, the
FileUtil class can't really be used in SftpOperations since it makes
assumptions about separators that it really can't know anything about.
I haven't encountered any erors regarding this yet but it's easy to see that
the logic is failing.

> Key: CAMEL-6309
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-6309
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: camel-ftp
> Affects Versions: 2.10.2, 2.10.3, 2.10.4, 2.11.0
> Reporter: Bengt Rodehav
> Priority: Critical
>
> It is not possible to upload a file to a sub directory via sftp if the home
> directory (the directory where you end up directly after login) is root ("/"
> or "\").
> The reason is that after having checked that the sub directory exists (and
> perhaps created it), Camel tries to go back to the original directory which
> is "/". The SftpOperations.changeCurrentDirectory() method calls the
> FileUtil.compactPath() method that incorrecly changes "/" to "//". The bug
> thus resides in the FileUtil class which is part of camel-core.
> I think this bug may cause a number of other errors than the one I have
> enountered. E g it cannot be possible to change direcotory to "/" at all.
> And, other protocols (like ftp/ftps) might also be affected.
> This has been discussed on Camel user list:
> http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Problems-with-sftp-in-Camel-2-11-0-td5731359.html
