Paramiko Python: IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

The Question: Can I do something like: `self.sftp.put(sourceFilePath, final_destination, use_sudo=True)` I can make folders, but not files? Do I need to explicitly call sudo or set something in paramiko? Should I be copying the file to a permissable space and chowning? Is there a way to give paramikko sudoer without using keys or having to mess around with `ssh.exec_command("sudo mv")`? What am I missing? The Code: ``` class Ssh(object): def __init__(self): super(Ssh, self).__init__() def setup(self): '''Setup connection''' try: # DEBUG paramiko.common.logging.basicConfig(level=paramiko.common.DEBUG) #set username & password username = 'sgdevbox' password = MainFrame.ssh_pass host = '192.168.0.170' port = 22 self.transport = paramiko.Transport((host, port)) self.transport.connect(username = username, password = password) self.sftp = paramiko.SFTPClient.from_transport(self.transport) print(self.sftp.sock) except Exception, e: print(traceback.format_exc()) def putFiles(self, sources, listingSku): ''' Upload images to server along with all currentItemInfo, plus initials and date Basically build the auction and put it into the queue for verification ''' print('\n# Ssh.putFiles() #') if isinstance(sources, unicode): sources = {sources,'True'} try: self.setup() destination = '/var/www' cwd = os.getcwd() for source in sources: filename = os.path.split(source)[-1] destinationFolder = listingSku final_path = posixpath.join(destination,destinationFolder) try: self.sftp.mkdir(final_path, mode=777) except: print(traceback.format_exc()) final_destination = posixpath.join(final_path, filename) sourceFilePath = os.path.join(cwd,source) print('\n# Source Path: {}\n# Destination Path: {}\n\n'.format(sourceFilePath,final_destination)) self.sftp.put(sourceFilePath, final_destination) except Exception, e: print(traceback.format_exc()) return ``` The Traceback: ``` # Source Path: C:\A\Long\Path\622-402_01.JPEG # Destination Path: /var/www/WOOBLE-WAMBLER-SPAM-1235/622-402_01.JPEG DEBUG:paramiko.transport.sftp:[chan 1] open('/var/www/WOOBLE-WAMBLER-SPAM-1235/622-402_01_swatch.JPEG', 'wb') Traceback (most recent call last): File "display_image.py", line 67, in putFiles self.sftp.put(sourceFilePath, final_destination) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\sftp_client.py", line 565, in put fr = self.file(remotepath, 'wb') File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\sftp_client.py", line 245, in open t, msg = self._request(CMD_OPEN, filename, imode, attrblock) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\sftp_client.py", line 635, in _request return self._read_response(num) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\sftp_client.py", line 682, in _read_response self._convert_status(msg) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\paramiko\sftp_client.py", line 710, in _convert_status raise IOError(errno.EACCES, text) IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied ``` Other posts I've looked at: - http://www.lag.net/paramiko/docs/paramiko.SFTPClient-class.html#put - I'm trying to understand why I'm getting a "Permission Denied" error when using paramiko 1.7.6 - 'Put' in SFTP using PAramiko - IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: - IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied - Why am I getting IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied? - Python - IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: - using shutil.copyfile I get a Python IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: - https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/257 - https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/828 - https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/257 - http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576810-copy-files-over-ssh-using-paramiko/ - How to run sudo with paramiko? (Python) Some of the posts are sort of old, but seemed to indicate that paramiko doesn't have it implemented? Fabric has a version implemented, but I am not sure about adding more dependencies. ``` (Pdb) import pkg_resources (Pdb) pkg_resources.get_distribution('paramiko').version '1.13.0' ```
