I need to overwrite a remote file that isn't owned by me, but I'm member of its group. The file has write permission for group. After transfer I get a message like "Upload of file <filename> was successful, but error occurred while setting the permissions and/or timestamp"

While copying files such as this, you need to turn off Set permissions and Preserve timestamp options or turn on Ignore permission errors
