Unable to download the file from unix to windows using sftp connection

Question

My requirement is to get the file from remote machine(Unix) to local machine(Unix/windows). When I run the code in Unix, I am able to download the file from Unix(remote) to Unix(local) but when I run the code Windows, I am not able to get the file from Unix(remote) to Windows(local), I see error message as "Message: 4" for the line channel.get(folderPath + "/" + fileNameFound, localFolder);

why I see issue in windows not in UNIX.

Find below the old reference. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13680057/downloading-files-from-an-sftp-server-using-jsch — Sambit, May 03 '19 at 20:58

If I read this code correctly:

channel.get(folderPath + "/" + fileNameFound, localFolder);

then you are building a file path there. File paths are different on Unix and Windows systems. Have you tried using Java's built-in Path class to resolve the file paths?

Also: providing a larger code snippet would make it easier to figure out the problem ;)

I added my code in the description. Thanks for looking into it. I am taking care of paths based on environments(UNIX and windows). – Sravanth Kothuri May 03 '19 at 20:55
