I have this sftp site that I an trying to login to.
I can use other ftp clients but my favorite Cyberduck does not login. Instead I get this error.
I get this error message regardless if I put the right password or the wrong password in.

Please update to the latest snapshot build available and post the error message and the transcript from View → Log Drawer.

Just as a note: I know I am entering the right password and still get the error. But if I also enter a wrong password I still get the same error.

Is it possible that you login to the server with ssh from the Terminal.app and post the output of ls.

The actual error message reported is supposed to be Failure to read attributes of <filename>.

In 939bff8. Ignore files when the server responds with an error to READLINK. The symbolic links will be missing in the directory listing.

I assume you no longer need me to ssh to the server?
Looks like you have already fixed the issue in some upcoming release, correct??

Yes, please update to the latest snapshot build available to try if the workaround works for you. I would still be interested in the output from ls though to find the cause of failure reading the symbolic link target. Possibly just a bug with the SSH server.

The latest snapshot fixed the issue. I tried ssh to the server but i can not. I do not run this ftp server. I am just a user of it and need to access it.
