I can not access an Ubuntu Server via SFTP. Here is the WinSCP error:
Received too large (1919905652 B) SFTP packet. Max supported packet size is 1024000 B.The error is typically caused by message printed from startup script (like .profile). The message may start with "root".
I put this line in .bashrc, but the problem continues:
The user-name is not root , but rather a randomly generated by the contracted Linux VPS service. I think it has to do with this, but I do not know much about linux .... I can access the server through putty, with this same random user. Despite this, the prompt displays root @ server: / #* If not running interactively, do not do anything if [[$ -! = i ]]; then return; fi *
Here is the .bashrc content:
