Error removing file over SFTP but SSH permissions are OK #541
Description
Hi,
thanks for this great software!
I've set 7 days of retention for my backups over SSH/SFTP and the backups are correctly and regularly created. However docker-volume-backup is unable to erase old backups: here's a snippet of the log files (repeated many times):
time=2025-02-19T02:30:20.279Z level=ERROR msg="Unexpected error running schedule 30 2 * * *: sftp: \"Failure\" (SSH_FX_FAILURE)" error="main.runScript.func4: error running script: main.(*script).pruneBackups: error pruning backups: ssh.(*sshStorage).Prune.func1: error removing file: sftp: \"Failure\" (SSH_FX_FAILURE)"
time=2025-02-20T02:30:00.133Z level=INFO msg="Now running script on schedule 30 2 * * *"

time=2025-02-20T02:30:16.610Z level=INFO msg="Removed tar file `/tmp/backup-2025-02-20T02-30-00.tar.gz`."

The thing is: if I log via SSH using exactly
- same RSA private key
- SSH host/user/pw
provided to docker-volume-backup, I can remove old backups without any issue with "rm"...
Any hint/idea?
