I am using PHPseclib to transfer a file from a local fileserver to a remote fileserver. I am able to connect to the server, have 0777 permission on the target file on my local fileserver, but $sftp->put is failing. Right now it return bool, but is there a way I can extract the actual error message or at least an error code?

I have tried $sftp->error, but that value is null. I am running PHP5.1 (can't upgrade to latest version b/c it is not actually my server).

SOLUTION:

Using $sftp->getSFTPErrors() return an array with sftp errors.

You could try $ssh->getErrors(), which'll return an error. You could also do $ssh->getSFTPErrors().

Failing that the logs might provide some insight but let's see what the errors get you first.
