sftp problem
« on: May 03, 2007, 02:41:44 PM »
When I open a connection via sftp, files are displayed correctly in the host directory, but folders are not.  They are displayed as blank files.  I can open these directories and see what's in them, but in some, subfolders don't even display.  If I try to copy those folders to my local machine, the folder doesn't transfer, only what appears to be a bookmark to that folder.  Any ideas?

Bizarre! Nobody else has reported such a problem, so I suppose it must be specific to your server:

What type of SFTP server are you connected to?

Please post a transcript showing a directory listing which has the problematic sub folders.

If there's any chance that I can connect to the server, please send me the details via email - I will be able to fix the problem very quickly this way:  support at yummysoftware dot com
