[Ssh-sftp-perl-users] Net SSH2 scp_get/scp_put problems.

[Rutger O. <ov...@us...>]

I've been trying out Net SSH2:

http://search.cpan.org/~dbrobins/Net-SSH2-0.06/

I installed:

openssl-0.9.8a.tar.gz
libssh2-0.12.tar.gz

But scp_get does not work on files > 25k or so.  For a 2k file, it works, but
larger files receive a segmentation fault.

scp_put just creates a 0 byte file on the remote system but doesn't transfer the contents.

Any hints on why these fail?

#--
my $ssh2 = Net::SSH2->new();
$ssh2->connect("shell.sourceforge.net");
$ssh2->auth_publickey(...);
$ssh2->scp_get('/home/../file', '/home/../file');
#--

When I strace the script on scp_get, I receive:

send(3, ",\27\331\264\26\v\f\222Q\34\311\274\331>\256\'\337$Sw\361"..., 52, 0x4000) = 52
fcntl64(3, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY)           = 0
getpid()                                = 10697
getpid()                                = 10697
send(3, "V\277\10&k\350>\231\262\360e]\204\226\245V\272\373\305"..., 52, 0x4000) = 52
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

I was connected to shell.sourceforge.net which advertises
SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2.  Transferring the file with normal command
line "scp" works.
