Not able to transfer file using SFTP
I am not able to transfer file to my linode using SFTP. filezila is able to connect to the server. I am also able to delete or rename the file on the server. But when I try to transfer the file from my local machine, it shows following error message
Error: error while writing: failure
Error: File transfer failed
Can some one please help.
Thanks

You may want to try a different client besides Filezilla to see if you can get a more informative error message.
df -h
It'll spit out something like this
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vda1 79G 15G 61G 20% /
udev 494M 4.0K 494M 1% /dev
tmpfs 201M 284K 200M 1% /run
none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
none 501M 0 501M 0% /run/shm
````
The one that has / under Mounted on is your root drive.
