Yes, we have tested with the sftp, the same result. But it is fine with Filezilla, so I suggest you use Filezilla to transfer the big file, and we will try our best to find and fix this issue.

Any updates on this issue? We are facing a similar issue with a customer using sftp from a Solaris based server. They are trying to upload a 9GB file to us. Their connection is closed once they hit the 1GB (1028mb) mark - see error below. We have all file size and timeout limits set to "0" for their account. We are running WingFTP v3.8.7

sftp> put us0362_dmp.365PM.Z
Uploading us0362_dmp.365PM.Z to /Database2011/us0362_dmp.365PM.Z
us0362_dmp.365PM.Z 11% 1020MB
610.7KB/s 3:36:41 ETADisconnecting: Protocol error: expected packet type 31, got 94 Connection closed


Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience. The reason caused this issue is that the openssh-sftp client will send the rekey request when so many bytes of data have passed over the connection. And WingFTP's SSH-2 implementation currently does not support session rekeying because we thought the rekey serves no useful purpose, and causes all sorts of interop problems. Anyway, we decide to re-write the whole sftp module in order to has a perfect compatibility. This project maybe take a few months because many source will be added and modified. Hope you can understand.

Besides, if you need to use sftp to transfer the big file, we suggest you use the putty client. It is also cross-platform. And all most is it supports transfer resume while openssh-sftp not supports, this feature is most importantly for transfer the big file.

Is there any ETA on when this will be fixed? We have customers waiting for this issue to be resolved so we can support them with 1GB + ftp's to our location.
