Thanks for your reply, Martin. Unfortunately, none of the suggestions in the linked article reflect what I am doing, this is simply a download (no writing to server) and I am logged in with root account so permissions should not be a problem.
I am sure this is something wrong on the server, but the point is that FileZilla is able to cope with it and complete the download (using

Error message "Failure"
I am using .Net component v5.1.3 with WinSCP 5.1.3, in a VB VS2010 project (though this issue does not seem to be related to .NET component – see last paragraph below). I am downloading files in a loop from a Linux Debian OpenSSH host with SFTP and get the following exception when executing session.GetFiles

I can use Filezilla Windows client to download all of the files without issue. Once I have used my program and WinSCP, and the failure has occurred, Filezilla can do the download but with the following errors in the log:
Trying to copy the same files with WinSCP Windows client yields the same error message as does using the .NET wrapper:
Can anyone suggest what is happening?
Thanks.

Trying to copy the same files with WinSCP Windows client yields the same error message as does using the .NET wrapper:
General failure (server should provide error description).
Error code: 4
Error message from server: Failure

Can anyone suggest what is happening?
Thanks.
