Comment #2 on issue 33 by [email protected]: Put File fails when
destination path is a Windows Path
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-sshlibrary/issues/detail?id=33
I was having similar problems, but they were fixed (so many tries that I am
not sure what worked). I am running RIDE from a Windows 7 x64 machine,
connecting to other Windows XP 32bit, having OpenSSH.
Most probable fix is using '/' for path separator, so
c:\\windows\\temp\\test.txt should be /windows/temp/test.txt.
OpenSSH uses a mapping for the C:\\ like /cygdrive/c/.
On the target Windows machine, I added the user to Administrators group,
with a password and set a Local path for its Home. That Home path must
translated and set in the /etc/passwd file in OpenSSH.
Good luck,
Helio
