problems installing module Net::SFTP

[jcor]

Hi,
I'm using Ubuntu 7.04.

I'm writing a sript that sends files via ftp for several destinations.
So far I used Net::FTP and it worked fine.

My problem is that I need to send files via SFTP (SSH2). I've been trying to install Net::SFTP with 'sudo perl -MCPAN -e "install NET::SFTP' but I can't. It stops in the middle of the installation:

t/01-dh.........ok 15/18

If I use CTRL-C it finishes but with errors and I can't use the module in my scripts.

Can someone help me to install this, or another module that can SFTP or some other way to get my goal?

Thanks in advance for any help,

João

What errors are you getting?

[jcor]

The problem is installing the dependency Net::SSH::Perl.
I tried to install it separately and got the same error!

the installation stops in this "15/18".
If I leave it "die" for it self, the result is the same.
this is the output til the end:

I have cut some of the output because was too big for one post

Because you have SOOO much text in your post, you are going to have to break it up over a couple of replies in order for it to display. Please do this if you can.

Now I've tried to install the modules "manually".
I extracted the modules Net::SSH::PERL and NET::SFTP
then:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

the make test give some erros in the both of them, but the make install runs fine.

when I run my script still have this error:

From this error:

It looks like you are missing that module.

Thansk jeff, I guess was really that the problem.
I Installed it, after that the Net::SSH::perl, and after that my Net::SFTP

Now it compiles without error the use of the module:

use Net::SFTP;
in my script.

But when I try to really use SFTP with this code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
 
use Net::SFTP;
 
my $host = 'sftp.tvnet.com.pt';
my $user = 'estreias';
my $pwd  = 'cinema';
 
print "breakpoint1\n";
 
 
 my $sftp = Net::SFTP->new($host);
 
 
print "breakpoint2\n";
 
 
$sftp->put("sudo /home/joao/Desktop/AllCode.odt", AllCode.odt);
 
$sftp->quit;
 
 

I get this error:

Permission denied at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Net/SFTP.pm line 62

The problem is that this is not in my code but in the files of the installation!
The error comes after breakpoint 1;

Can someone give me some light here?

thanks a lot,


João

Just out of curiosity, when you installed the modules, did you do it as root or did you use "sudo"?

If you did it as root, then that could be your problem. Doing it as sudo runs the commands for installation with root permissions, but the difference is, you can still access the information.

Regards,

Jeff

[jcor]

I had run it with sudo.
I'm not sure if is a problem in the installation or if I need to pass some more args in my code...
Right now I can't test this sftp with any server.,,

Since the process is SFTP, it leads me to ask if there is a login and pwd associated with the login to the remote server. If so, are they specified correctly? Just throwing out ideas is all.

[jcor]

I use to use Filezilla to send files and I'm trying to use the same user, pwd, etc. I want to make a script to automate this process.

Do you think I can use SFTP in a regular FTP server? I'm not sure if the difference is only in "the way you send it" or is something else.

If I could, I could test my Net::SFTP.

thanks for your help,

João

[salva]

try using Net::SFTP::Foreign or Net::SSH2 instead

[jcor]

thansk for your help guys, I already made it work.
I had to install every modules needed mannually!


hugs,
