SCP command with Wildcard not working

Post by garretdpearse »

We are getting an error when trying to copy files from a HPUX to CoreFTP running on Windows when we use Wildcards :

When I am explicit with filename (source and destination) it works but when I look at copying multiple files e.g. *.TXT to a folder destination it is not working.
NOTE: pretty much all of the SCP calls use wildcards and it would be horrendous to have to re-design this.

Here’s an example of a successful (explicit)…
scp testn3.txt xxx@xxx.com:/folder1/testn3.txt

Here’s one that doesn’t work …
From within folder /prog/transfer/if/DM/XXX/InBox/MD/Pending/

scp -q *.TXT xxx@xxx.com:/Folder1/InBox/MD
Response received is :
/Folder1/InBox/MD (5) - Access is denied.

CoreFTP logs show the following :
[20160106 08:45:31] [xxx.xx.xxx.xxx] user (xxx) granted access

[20160106 08:45:31] [xxx.xx.xxx.xxx] . (5) - Access is denied.

Any help would be appreciated as this is becoming an urgent issue
