openssh unix dev - May 2008 - ssh works, but sftp doesn't

Hello All,

I have built the OpenSSH provided with the "buildroot" package for ARM
board. OpenSSH version is openssh-4.7p1. 

After starting the SSHD, I am able to ssh to my ARM board, from my PC,
but SFTP fails.

Attached is the log I got from the daemon.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kans.

For some reason your sftp-server is exiting immediately. Check that
/usr/sbin/sftp-server exists, is executable and doesn't crash
when executed.

For a better test of sftp-server, you can run it directly from
sftp: "sftp -P /usr/sbin/sftp-server blah"
