lftp Fatal error: Host key verification failed
When i connect to a remote SFTP server using lftp, i get following error
root@ok:~# lftp sftp://[email protected]:22 Password: lftp [email protected]:~> set ftp:ssl-allow false lftp [email protected]:~> mirror --verbose --use-pget-n=8 -c /home/okuser/www.site.com/docs /root/site-backup/ mirror: Fatal error: Host key verification failed. mkdir: Access failed: /root/site-backup/docs: File exists lftp: MirrorJob.cc:242: void MirrorJob::JobFinished(Job*): Assertion `transfer_count>0' failed. Aborted root@ok:~#
The error is “Fatal error: Host key verification failed.”
To fix this, just SSH into this server with command
ssh -p 22 [email protected]
