I can not create the remote file in a non-root directory.

Does the /yamana/dev/inbound really exist? Can you show output of ls /yamana/dev?

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

I believe I'm having a similar issue:

It defenitely exists...

If I use something like FileZilla and create an empty file in the same location with the same name it works. But while it's working it claims the file is 0kb.

I'm running on Windows 7 if that helps. I don't know anything about the ftp server except that it's on our local network, and I'm using the network name to connect, not the IP.

Cheers.

Any chance that the server ran out of space?

Ahh figured it out. I found out the server is running tightFTP which means you must run with -rawsettings SFTPMaxVersion=3

When this is done on the open command everything works.

Thanks for the help.

According to our IT guy it's a known (to a Google Search at least) incompatibility between the two.
