Control: reassign -1 x2goclient 4.1.1.1-2 Control: tags -1 moreinfo
Please mention your client OS the next time around! I'm pretty sure that it's Ubuntu 18.04/bionic based on the openssh-sftp-server package's version number, but such information is often helpful.
My path is as follows PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin
Looks fine in general, but let's look for sftp-server...
which sftp /usr/bin/sftp
Nope, sorry, useless. sftp is the sftp client binary, but X2Go Client is looking for the sftp server binary (as part of the folder sharing/printing support).
Can you please re-run "which sftp-server"?
i currently have sftp installed ii openssh-sftp-server 1:7.6p1-4ubuntu0.3
Weird.
dpkg -L openssh-sftp-server
should include both
/usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server /usr/lib/sftp-server
Right?
/usr/lib/sftp-server should be a symlink to /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server, which should be a real binary.
If the files exist, run ls -ldh /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server /usr/lib/sftp-server
Incidentally, there *is* a bug in X2Go Client, which... looks for the wrong binary name when using Qt 5. I managed to look for "sftp-binary" instead of "sftp-server", which is just braindead. However, funnily, this only caused trouble if the sftp-server binary was bundled or contained in a system path, which shouldn't be the case. This bug should now be fixed in our nightly packages, but it doesn't explain the problem you're experiencing.
