Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding Net::SFTP.
I am writing a script which will poll a directory on my side for files that need to be transferred to an SFTP server every 5 minutes. I have a configuration file that defines a number of directories, some are FTP servers while some are SFTP, plus some additional information, such as whether to create a new directory remotely etc...
All of that works fine, except for one client who is giving me problems.
Error is: Couldn't get handle: Permission denied at ftpOut.pl line 147
I have tried sending a file using winSCP and received a permission error there as well - the only way to remove this was to uncheck "preserve timestamps".
So my question is, is there anyway for me to do this using Net::SFTP ?
the script ends here 
if (! ($ftp->put($location.$fileName)) )
                                {
                                                &Logs(":Error:","Could
+ not PUT file $fileName from $location to $ftpHost");
die &SendFailEmail("Error with transferring $fileName to $ftpHost",$no
+tificationEmail);
                                }

the connection is made here 
 my $host = $ftpHost;
                        my %args =
                        (
                                user => $userName,
                                password => $password,
                                debug => 'true',
                                ssh_args => [port => 22],
                        );
                        if (! ($ftp = Net::SFTP->new($host, %args)) )
                        {
                                        &Logs(":Error:","Could not log
+in to FTP $location $ftpHost");
                                        die &SendFailEmail("Error with
+ connecting to $ftpHost",$notificationEmail);
                        }
