I'll also confirm this incorrect behavior in 4.2.9 (Build 938).

Copying from a VMware server (linux) to the PC using SCP fails with "server disconnected". Copying the same direction connected using SFTP w/SCP fallback works.

Copying from your PC to the VMware (linux) server works fine in SCP mode.

Version 4.0.4 (Build 346) did not have this problem.

Here's the relevant portion of the log file:

Re: Transferring files from Linux Server fails

Please post a full log file showing the problem.

To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. For posting extensive logs you may use pastebin or similar application. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

Transferring files from Linux Server fails

I have used the WinSCP package for many years, and this is the first attempt I've noticed to transfer files from a Linux Server (same one I've been using), to either a Windows PC, or attached Network hard drive.

After selecting the files for transfer, the Directory is created, and then the connection to the linux server fails. There is a pop-up screen that indicates that it will reconnect.

This is WinSCP version 4.2.9 (Build 938). I do have another SCP connection (true Linux to Linux) connection running, but I've never been limited to just one file transfer happening at a time.
