Here we go!

Maybe. I was unable to investigate the request so far, but I will concentrate 
on this and give an update ASAP.

The problem is, that I use an internal server, which is not accessible from the 
outside. I could use SFTP with CuteFTP for example, which works fine. I tried 
to use Wireshark to analyze this problem, but Wireshark has no filter module 
for SFTP so far.

This seems more like a libssh2 problem than libcurl so I think follow-ups
should rather be taken on the libssh2 list.

A zero in SSH_FXP_STATUS would correpond to SSH_FX_OK which according to the
"spec" section 9.1 [*] means: "The value SSH_FX_OK indicates success, and all
other values indicate failure.".

Of course, in this context I don't see how it can signal success with
SSH_FXP_STATUS since section 8.1.1 says the response to SSH_FXP_OPEN should be
"SSH_FXP_HANDLE (if the operation is successful)".

Could there be a problem with the outgoing request perhaps?

Since repeating the problem seems to be a bit hard, it of course will take
some persistence and imagination to hunt down this problem! I assume you can
SFTP files to it using other clients so we can pretty much rule out the server
side?

[*] = http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-13#section-9.1
