I have the same problem here. It copies fine, but says the remote side has failed.

Thanks in advance,

WinSCP says "copying failed", but transfer is OK

Hi.

I'm using latest WinSCP 4.3.9, protocol: FTP, explicit TLS, server side: vsftpd 2.3.5.

I'm doing background transfers, downloading to a local directory.

Most files transfer OK, but for a few files I get this message:

"Copying files from remote side failed."

This is the relevant log section:

File: "/xy.zip"

Copying "/xy.zip" to local directory started.
Binary transfer mode selected.
Starting download of /xy.zip
TYPE I
200 Switching to Binary mode.
PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,2,20,77,149).
RETR xy.zip
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for xy.zip (577471 bytes).
SSL connection established
Copying files from remote side failed.
226 Transfer complete.
(ExtException) Copying files from remote side failed.
Transfer complete.
Asking user:
Error transferring file '/xy.zip'. ("Copying files from remote side failed.","Transfer complete.")
[Background 1] TYPE I
[Background 1] 200 Switching to Binary mode.
(EScpSkipFile) Error transferring file '/xy.zip'.
Copying files from remote side failed.
Transfer complete.

Apparently, the server is right, transfer was completed successfully; the file exists and MD5 sums match.

Best regards.
