Known Issues¶

This is the list of known issues for current release of SFTPPlus Client:

By default, SFTPPlus Client will fail to handle PUT transfers of files larger than 2G, due to an limitation in computing the size of local files.

To enable support for large files use the global.large_files = ‘y’ global configuration option.
[#1334] When enabling large files handling support on Windows operating systems after running for a long time the SFTPPlus Client might crash with the following error: Low level stream I/O error: creating redirection for error: Broken pipe To resume the operations, you will have to manually start the SFTPPlus Client service.
At shutdown the SFTPPlus Client does not close ongoing transfers. To close them you will have to manually kill those OS processes.
When run in debug mode inside the installation folder and UAC is activated in Windows the client is unable to save the downloaded file content for GET transfers.
On non Windows distributions FTPS put transfers will not download empty files unless the cURL available on the system is at least version 7.49.0.
