Getting Error in SFTP Connection "com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: java.net.ConnectException: A remote host did not respond within the timeout period. "

[former_member183249]

Hi

I am using SFTP adapter to send an edi file.

I have set all the mandatory parameters in the communication channel.

(i.e. Server Fringerprint, Port,Server, Username,pwd and using no proxy in proxy field).

But i am not able to connect the SFTP Server and communication channel is throwing the following error:

"com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: java.net.ConnectException: A remote host did not respond within the timeout period."

Can anybody tell me what could be the possible reason for above error.

Hi Rajesh,

Kindly check with network team if firewall is open on both the way. Its Firewall issue thats why you are not able to enter into server and getting timeout error.

Ask your firewall/network team to open the port for ip address if its not open.

You got the exact solution?

You mean port needs to be opened and rule should be enabled at both sides i.e Bidirectional.??

But my scenario is asynchronous FTP to FTPS.

Hi

try to ping server, is it avilable? Is it available from PI host? Is ftp port opened?

What is the file size?

If it is big and ping is success then try to set in advanced mode of CC following parameters:

Name : ftp.timeout

Value : timeoutsecs

Hi Mikhail,

How we can ping the server ?

We are using the small file of approx 2KB to 10 KB.

execute ping command in terminal window

ping server_host

or

ping server_IP

Create an external command and then use telnet to check the connection with the remote server.
