Unsupported sftp after upgrade (18.4)

Help and Support
1

Hello I have just upgraded my OSMC from Kodi 18.3 to Kodi 18.4
and after restart, sftp is no more working
vfs.sftp plugin has also changed from v1.0.1 to vfs.sftp v1.0.3 so problem may could be here

Here are my logs:

I can still connect from a console, using an ssh key:

If you have any clue let me know, otherwise I’m going to check changes on plugin

Cheers,

Can you please post full logs

Hello Sam,

with the previous version of vfs.sftp plugin you had to specify “sftp|ssh://”
now you have to specify simply “sftp://” in source.xml

It works perfectly when correcting the protocol name

King regards
Edouard
