Hi,
I used the libssh2 examples "sftp.c" and "sftpdir.c", lightly modified to
get more information on the errors.
I have to get files from several subdirectories on a SFTP Server.
Some of these subdirectories ar written by other users, one is written by
the user which I use as login with user and password.
All users are in the same group.
Getting files which are created by "my" user works fine.
But when I try to get the other files then libssh2_sftp_open fails,
libssh2_session_last_error returns -31 (= LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL) and
libssh2_sftp_last_error returns 3 (= LIBSSH2_FX_PERMISSION_DENIED).
I have no problems reading the directories (libssh2_sftp_opendir /
libssh2_sftp_readdir_ex).
Examples:
My directory on the server:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 My_User Group1 7923 Apr 9 13:49 file1 (ok)
Another directory:
-rw-r--r-- 1 Other_User Group1 1229 Apr 9 00:59 file2 (fails)
The system I work on is SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (i586).
The version of libssh2 is 1.4.3.
/usr/bin/sftp has no problems, I can get all files; same on windows with
WinSCP.
The problem must be on my side.
What could I make better? Are there more steps to do than coded in the
examples?
Thanks
Peter
