I have no if your problem is related to an issue I have found, but
have not been able to do more then a quick hack in libssh2_packet_add
(). The problem I was seeing is that for some specific data with a
specific server it was sending more uncompressed data then requested,
but less then the requested size compressed. I disabled this code at
packet.c:678 :
if (session->packAdd_channel->remote.packet_size <
(datalen - session->packAdd_data_head)) {
/*
* Spec says we MAY ignore bytes sent beyond
* packet_size
*/
libssh2_error(session,
LIBSSH2_ERROR_CHANNEL_PACKET_EXCEEDED,
"Packet contains more data than we
offered to receive, truncating",
0);
datalen =
session->packAdd_channel->remote.packet_size +
session->packAdd_data_head;
}
And things worked. I will post more and better information as soon
as I can.
