Description

Error thrown when we transfer Filenames with Umlauts using SFTP Apache SSHD Server

I tried putting attached files by connecting to SFTP Apache SSHD Server using filezilla / winscp.

Below error is shown:

Error: Reading directory .: received unknown error code 20 with description 'Malformed input or input contains unmappable characters: myäöü'
Command: put "C:\Users\Vinitha.Palanethra\Desktop\5265_2\myäöü" "myäöü"
Error: FATAL ERROR: Received unexpected end-of-file from SFTP server
Error: File transfer failed

 

We found that this is not working only in case the locale "LANG" value is "en_US".

Because this is working when the locale "LANG" value is "en_US.UTF-8".

So is there any way to set the locale value to "en_US.UTF-8" in sshd? 

 

Please see the attached  screenshot for reference.
