The usual error procedure with libssh2_sftp_* functions is to first
call libssh2_session_last_error to make sure the error wasn't
something SSH related like a broken connection. This function returns
an error message in its second parameter.
Assuming the was no SSH, this function will return
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL in which case you can call
libssh2_sftp_last_error to get more detail. This returns an error
code but no error message so I have my own function,
GetSftpErrorMessage that just maps these codes to strings. Here is my
error handling function in case it helps to see code:
/**
* Retrieves a string description of the last error reported by libssh2.
*
* In the case that the last SSH error is an SFTP error it returns the SFTP
* error message in preference.
*/
CString GetLastErrorMessage(const CSession& session)
{
int nErr; PSTR pszErr; int cchErr;
nErr = libssh2_session_last_error(session, &pszErr, &cchErr, false);
if (nErr == LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL)
{
ULONG uErr = libssh2_sftp_last_error(session);
return GetSftpErrorMessage(uErr);
}
else // A non-SFTP error occurred
return CString(pszErr);
}
However, I have been having problems with libssh2_sftp_open. For
instance it returns LIBSSH2_FX_NO_SUCH_FILE when the file is locked or
already exists and I passed the CREAT flag. I assume this is
OpenSSH's fault and that libssh2 just returns whatever the server
sends it.
