Pipeline SFTP Deploy: stat build: No such file or directory

[JustJosh]

I am using the SFTP Deploy pipeline and whenever it runs it says that their is no such file or directory despite the directory being their as docker clones my repo and puts it there.

pipelines: 
  default: 
    - step: 
      script: 
        - pipe: atlassian/sftp-deploy:0.3.1 
        variables: 
          USER: 'bitbucket' 
          SERVER: '(removed for security)' 
          REMOTE_PATH: '/repo/' 
          LOCAL_PATH: 'build'

When I check the variable $pwd it returns /opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/

You are going to want to use the artifact stuff in a previous step because artifacts make it possible to use files that you can't reach - reachable in the following step.

Try to do something along these lines...

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
      script:
        - npm install
        - npm run build
      artifacts:
        - whatever/path/you/want/exposed/**
        - build/**

    - step:
      script:
        - pipe: atlassian/sftp-deploy:0.3.1
        variables:
          USER: 'bitbucket'
          SERVER: '(removed for security)'
          REMOTE_PATH: '/repo/'
          LOCAL_PATH: 'build'

/opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/ is the directory the build runs in.

The Pipe expects a directory relative to that, so when you say LOCAL_PATH:'build' it's looking for /opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/build which doesn't exist.

You just need to set LOCAL_PATH:'.'

Same bug for ftp deploy

[JustJosh]

I've fixed the local file not being detected but now I get:

Couldn't stat remote file: No such file or directory

It will not do the SFTP Upload because apparently there is no such file or directory. I have tried this with the home directory for the SFTP user and it gives the same error.

Are you sure the directory '/repo' exists on the remote server? This is the only reason I can think of for it failing...
