Description Barry Jackson 2018-01-07 11:33:35 CET

Description of problem:
After upgrade from Mga5 to Mga6 on a server, sshfs can not mount directories on the server.

The path to sftp-server set in /etc/ssh/sshd_config which was /usr/lib64/ssh/sftp-server is changed in Mga6 to /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server.

Editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config with the new path fixes the issue.

Maybe a symlink from the old location to the new created on install of the new package in Mga6 would resolve this?

You need to integrate changes from the default  (rpmnew) config file into yours, this is nothing new.  It might be nice to have a post scriplet fix this case automatically though.  In fact, didn't some one else already report this?

Hello,
This problem is also reported here :
https://www.mageialinux-online.org/forum/topic-25342+perte-du-sftp-lors-de-l-upgrade-de-mageia-5-vers-mageia-6.php

The soluce is to replace 
 Subsystem sftp /usr/lib64/ssh/sftp-server
by
 Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Hope this help.
