I got the same error even when I setup the timeout as 360s
viewtopic.php?t=6928&p=23065&hilit=timeout#p23065

The transfer is fine, the problem happen in the last minute after the transfer when FFS try to rename the tmp file into full name of the file.

Version: 10.24 donated version.

Has this problem been fixed by 10.22?
FFS Error MSG:
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL: SFTP Protocol Error - LIBSSH2_FX_FAILURE [libssh2_sftp_rename]
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_RECV: channel read [libssh2_sftp_write]
LIBSSH2_ERROR_TIMEOUT: [libssh2_sftp_close]

destination? Version info? Libcurl info?
Try process manager and provide a log. Might not help if the issue is on the network location, but then you'd know that info at least

Hi there,

I have the same error: rename file failed with big files. The remote filesystem is special because it versionize files, and the SFTP server mapped on it seems to handle temporary files on a different file system to avoid the "rename" versionning. That's why the rename command is supported by the SFTP server but leads to an error due to an impossible rename from a file systems to another file system.

So the solution I use in winSCP is to switch the flag -resumesupport=off

I would like to disable the resuming in freefilesync the same way as winSCP, but I don't know how to do that. Is it possible?

Thanks in advance.

In FreeFileSync this setting is called "Fail-safe file copy", located in menu->tools:options.

Oh yes, sorry, I missed the tool-tip-text.
Thanks a lot, it works now!
