  • Currently we upgraded our SFTP plugin to version 4.1.0. Configured the plugin to use the File Transfer Configurations with the proper mappings as below  

    'type!{plugins.ps.appiancorp.com/.../}FT_Config'{

    serverHostName:"text value", 

    serverPort: 22,

    scsExternalSystemKey: "text value",

    usePerUserCredentials: false(),

    privateKeyFile: "document"

    }

    we get the following error in the logs

    ERROR com.appiancorp.process.engine.UnattendedJavaActivityRequest - An error occurred while executing activity: id=704, classname=com.appiancorp.ps.plugins.filetransfer.sftp.SendFileOverSFTP

    The old version of the plugin with the same credentials works fine
