I have an SFTP process using edtFTPnet/PRO-7.1.0.20 (vb .net 3.5) that transfers binary files from a windows server 2008 client to an AS400 server using SFTP in BINARY without any problems. However, when I try to transport ASCII files using the ASCII FTPTransferType, I receive an Error code 4. There is no explanation for this error and I have only found one instance in the forum that contains this error.
Is there a list of error codes and explanations for the SFTP protocol? Any assistance with this problem is greatly appreciated!
'open connection with store
ftp.ServerAddress = AS400
ftp.UserName = useID
ftp.Password = usePW
ftp.ServerPort = 22
ftp.Protocol = FileTransferProtocol.SFTP
' turn off server validation
ftp.ServerValidation = SecureFTPServerValidationType.None
ftp.ServerCompatibility = SecureFTPCompatibilityFlags.SSHDisableChmodAfterPut
ftp.ParallelTransferMode = False
Here is a portion of the resulting error log:
