TScSFTPServer - RootPath (HomePath) for User

[Andy_aaa]

Hi,

using the TScSFTPServer via TScSSHServer (6.2): it look's like:

SFTPServer := TScSFTPServer.Create(nil);
ScFileStorage := TScFileStorage.Create(nil);
ScSSHServer := TScSSHServer.Create(nil);
ScSSHServer.SFTPServer := SFTPServer;
ScSSHServer.Storage := ScFileStorage;
..... Port 22 --- Options ect.
then:
scUser := TScUser.Create(ScFileStorage.Users);
scUser.UserName := 'User1';
scUser.Password := '123456';
scUser.Authentications := [uaPassword];
scUser.HomePath := 'C:\Home\User1';
****
Running this Code (maybe in "SimpleSSHServer-Demo") and Login via WinSCP (Connection SFTP)
--- Results after login:
1. in WinSCP I see the 'C:\Home\User1' Folder - OK
2. The Folder 'C:\Home\User1' is not the Root-Folder - !Ok
3. User1 can Change to the topfolders .. "C:\Home" - "C:\" .... - !Ok
4. Get a file from this Folder - OK
5. Save a file to this Folder - !Ok (WinSCP - error-message)
- path to copy is "C:\Home\User1\./*.*"
- error mess is : Can't create the file -> bad filename (code 4)

Where is the mistake? How can I solve this problem?

May be it is a bug in WinSCP:
- when I change the directory in WinSCP to "/"[Root] then the protocol works fine
- may be -- set "OnGetAbsolutePath" for ever "on Root"

Thank you for the information. We are investigating the problem. As soon as we solve the problem we will let you know.

hello, I'm trying to run a sftp server but I too have the same problem.

Where can I set the root sftp?

The server sets it where the executable resides, and returns to the sftp client that path instead of a root.


I'm using the last trial with XE6 under Windows 7.

Thank you for the information. We have reproduced this problem and fixed it. This fix will be included in the next SecureBridge build.
