SFTP: Debug Assertion Failed!

[Alejandro Jakubi]

Hi

Using TC 6.51 on Win XP Pro SP1, I have opened a Secure FTP Connection to a Unix server of my
department in both windows, each in a diferent directory, and trying to copy a
file from one directory to the other I have got this error message:

Microsoft VisualC++ Debug Library

Debug Assertion Failed!

Program: D:\Program Files\totalcmd\TOTALCMD.EXE
File: dbgheap.c
Line: 1011

Expression: _CrtIsvalidHeapPointer(pUserData)

...

Hitting Cancel, TC shuts down, while hitting Retry I have got this error
message:

External exception 80000003

Please report this error to the Author...


I wonder whether this is a bug of TC, a bug of the SFTP plugin, or it is not
expected to use TC+SFTP plugin in this way. In the latter case, could you
suggest alternatives?

I wonder whether this is a bug of TC, a bug of the SFTP plugin

since TC is written in delphi the shown error message is from the sftp plugin. I experienced another problem when copying from one window to the other, both directories on the sftp server, which is not being asked to overwrite a file when the file which is to be copied already exists in the destination directory.

Maybe you should try SFTP4TC, http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2273&release_id=4964

Thank you for this updated pointer. I was using sftp plugin ver. 1.04. The current one, sftp4tc 1.2.57.2 does not produce this error. However, it still has problems: downloading speed to a local temporary file, though not very fast is reasonable, but uploading is extremely slow and stalls very frequently.

There is a forum at that site. Perhaps I should report there also.
