Question:

SFTP upload problem

Jan 17 '14 at 13:49

Hi there,

I am having a problem uploading a file using Chilkat. While I have no issues with my own FTP (with prefix ftp://) I have no luck with sftp:// server. Could anyone know the reason why? Below is the error message I get from Chilkat.

Thanks,

Rio

Answer

When a server provides an error message that is substantial and non-understandable, Google it. I tried by Googling "SFTP Invalid cross-device link". There are many promising search results that are likely to lead to an understanding of this problem..
