Question:

RenameFileOrDir

Jul 04 '13 at 09:12

Hi There,

I have a Problem with renaming/moving a file on an sftp Server, the following error:

I can download the File, but i cant rename it, any ideas?

success = sftp.DownloadFileByName("/content/outlet/edit/outlet_edit.lib.php", tmp_file) <-- WORKS

success = sftp.RenameFileOrDir("/content/outlet/edit/outlet_edit.lib.php", "/content/outlet/edit/2013_07_04_133905_outlet_edit.lib.php"); <-- ERROR

PS: With WinSCP the renaming works, and iam using verision 9.4.0 from Chilkat.

best,

Hi Again,

I have found a solution, just removing the first slash in the old and new filename.
