Uploading files in bulk doesn't work + creating temp files

Hi,

I hope you are well.

I am trying to upload about 50 odd files to SFTP and although it does upload those files they are all some odd format with '.temp' extension. What am I doing wrong?

I have attached some screenshots for reference, so I hope it helps.




Would someone be able to help me with this please?

Thank you
R

Hi
Under normal conditions, files are uploaded with temporary names, and after the upload completes successfully, they are renamed to their intended names. This ensures a more atomic upload process. However, in your situation, an error occurs during the renaming process.

The most frequent reason for a failed rename operation is that the user account you’re using does not have the necessary permissions to rename files in the target directory.
Some SFTP servers run under chroot jails or have strict server-side restrictions that disallow certain operations like renaming.

Try uploading files in a mode that doesn't use temporary files. To do this, check the box labeled "Don't use temporary files".

Hi @ckononenko,

Thank you so much :slight_smile:
That did work.

I will try and sort out the permissions issue to get this to work the right way.

Thanks a lot once again.

Wish you Happy Holidays!

Kind regards,
