Some MobaXTerm users need to use SCP not SFTP to see file browser #2

Open willfurnass opened 7 years ago

willfurnass commented 7 years ago

Some users may not see the file browser pane in MobaXTerm. This may or may not be due to actions taken when the Windows Firewall prompts the user to allow/deny MobaXTerm to public and/or private networks.

A workaround to this is to ask MobaXTerm to use the SCP file transfer protocol rather than the SFTP protocol when you create/start your MobaXTerm session:

mobaxterm_scp

The file browser pane should then (hopefully) be visible.

Is there a way to make this setting the default?

Also, is there a way to set up ssh from the terminal to use this setting?

willfurnass commented 5 years ago

@Aethylred I'm not sure I understand your second point - if you can use ssh from the command-line then scp and sftp should both be available to you for transferring files. Can you elaborate?

give permission to your folder using below command sudo chmod 755 your folder name

Make Sure you should have root privilege

willfurnass commented 5 years ago

@vasurajput What is your suggestion here? Do you want to explain how to grant read and execute privileges on a folder? Also, note that typically only system administrators can use sudo on HPC systems - however sudo is not needed if you want to change the permissions on a folder you own using chmod.

I have root privilidges on a remote server. I can see the content of files if I use" ls "when I am root, however, I cant view those folders via the MobaXterm broser (even if I am root). How can I fix it without changing file permissions (obviously the permissions need to be protected to prevent people who are not part of specific usergroups to view folder contents).

Hi, I am unable to download any files from Mobaxterm, on SCP as well as SFTP. Do you know what could the reason be. These include .tsv files

My experience with a Docker container: with SFTP the file browser is not displayed. With SCP apparently all is working fine, but trying to upload a file causes the transfer to remain stuck ad the beginning, while trying to download a file causes no file to be transferred. Using WinSCP revealed the problem, which was not reported by MobaXTerm in any way (even looking at its log): scp command is missing on the container. So I had to stick to WinSCP (using SFTP protocol) to make file transfers work. I don't know why MobaXTerm does not show the file browser when selecting SFTP in this case.
