Cannot make SFTP backup

[tvdh]

Hi,

I set up an SFTP server and try to make a backup to it.
But constantly get error:

curl: (56) response reading failed
curl return code: 56

I try to reproduce with:
ftp_port=2202 ftp_local_file=file.txt ftp_ip=37.1xx.xx.xx ftp_username=xx ftp_password_esc_double_quote=xxxx ftp_path=/mnt/Backups/ws23/backups/ ftp_secure=ftps ./ftp_upload.php

But get same error

When I run:
curl -k sftp://3x.1xx.xxx.xxx:2202/mnt/Backups/ws23/backups/ --user xx
It works fine, its listing the contents of directory

When I run
curl -k sftp://3xx.1xx.xxx.xxx:2202/mnt/Backups/ws23/backups --user xx so with no / at end of path
I get the same error:
curl: (56) Failure when receiving data from the peer

I tried in Directadmin with and without / but nothing works.

Does someone have a solution?

Thanks!

Hello,

The native scripts for FTP backups support only FTP and FTPS. They do not support SFTP yet. A quite time ago I've updated the script and published them here: https://github.com/poralix/directadmin-sftp-backups You might use them to get backups to SFTP working.

Its weird that DA doesn't not support this out of the box

Is this still an issue and require the solution provided above?
I do see an Secure FTP option in directadmin but i keep getting error that my FTP details in incorrect. However, i can connect to the sftp server no problem from anywhere but directadmin
