Huge file uploads failing through Aspera Ruby CLI With "Insufficient permissions" Error

LikhitSankala opened this issue · comments

Hi Team,

User was unable to upload a large file which was of 39GB size through Ruby cli and is getting an error message "Insufficient permissions" (Error 51 [Source: Permission denied]).
However, user was able to upload the same files if we split into smaller size which is of 3GB each. Therefore, the user has the required permissions to upload the files.

Kindly note that, further details of the issue can be found under IBM case 'TS014807826'.
Could you please check on this issue and provide a fix for Aspera Ruby CLI.

Thanks and Regards,
Likhit.

If the problem consists in a transfer failing, it might be due to some configuration aspects of IBM products.

Note: this is an upload to a shared inbox on AoC.

For this particular problem:

  • Does the upload work using Aspera Connect and the web UI, in the same conditions (same source file) ?
    (if the Linux system has UI)
    Or is there the same error ?
    (if there is the same error, then it's not a problem with ascli).
  • does another command like: cksum [same source file path here] work ?
    This allows checking if the problem is not in reading the whole file itself.
  • does the failure happen right at the beginning of transfer ? or does the transfer start , transfer some part, and then fail?

The error message suggests it's coming directly from ascp, not ascli, and concerns reading the source file.

CLI and web UI shall be the same speed if connect client is used. User shall not use http transfer. I proposed a personnal webex help which was refused. Can't do better.

Hi LikhitSankala,

We need to inspect the log information, that's why I proposed an interactive session.
The used can add the following option to the command line:

--transfer-info=@json:'{"ascp_args":["-DDL-"]}'

see:

and then extract lines that have ERR:
