I am trying to upload a file to an SFTP site using Net :: SFTP.
The problem is that the Ruby process never returns. It froze, stuck, never ended ... I have Ctrl-C to stop it.
- I can connect to the ftp server at the command line using sftp.
- I tried this code on Linux (Ubuntu) and Snow Leopard, and it does the same.
- The latest version of Net :: SSH and Net :: SFTP is installed.
- From
gem list net :net-sftp (2.0.5)net-ssh (2.1.4)
- Various combinations of hash arguments (see code below)
- Tried to call
Net::SFTP.start instead of creating an SSH session first. - The server responds with "
SFTP protocol version 3 " when I log in using the command line tool and request a version. - I am running
Ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [i686-darwin10.7.0]
Debug output from :verbose (last couple of lines):
D, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.692192 #19399] DEBUG -- tcpsocket[80c06478]: read 36 bytes D, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.692609 #19399] DEBUG -- tcpsocket[80c06478]: received packet nr 7 type 99 len 12 I, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.692751 #19399] INFO -- net.ssh.connection.session[80bd5da0]: channel_success: 0 D, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.692817 #19399] DEBUG -- net.sftp.session[80bd5c24]: sftp subsystem successfully started D, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.693625 #19399] DEBUG -- tcpsocket[80c06478]: queueing packet nr 8 type 94 len 28 D, [2011-07-29T17:30:52.693834 #19399] DEBUG -- tcpsocket[80c06478]: sent 52 bytes
Code example:
require 'rubygems' require 'net/sftp' FTP = "someftpsite" FTP_USER_NAME = "user" FTP_PASSWORD = "password" hash = {:password => FTP_PASSWORD, :verbose => :debug, :keys=>[""],:auth_methods => ["password"], :timeout => 5, :port=>22} begin Net::SSH.start(FTP,FTP_USER_NAME, hash) do |test| test.sftp.upload!("localfile","remotefile") end rescue Exception => err puts "error:#{err.inspect}" end
Edit: 8/22/2011
This is similar to the interactivity of an SFTP server. I solved this by creating a shell script using wait and crawl from Ruby to run the file. A shell script is created at runtime. It seems really hacky, but this is the only way I was able to get it to work with Ruby. If anyone has a suggestion, I would like to find a better way to do this.
