SFTP connection error with JSch: SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT: 11 Internal server error


I was trying to retrieve a file from SFTP server - while connecting to this SFTP works with FileZilla - SFTP method.

For JSch I have tried this code using JSch

JSch jsch = new JSch();
Properties config = new Properties();
config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
config.put("PreferredAuthentications", "password");
Session session = jsch.getSession( "super_robot", "192.192.192.com", 6222 );
session.setConfig(config );
session.setPassword( "a1234!X@" );
session.connect( 30000 );

Though I got this error:

Caused by: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT: 11 Internal server error. 
    at com.jcraft.jsch.Session.read(Session.java:1004)
    at com.jcraft.jsch.Session.connect(Session.java:323)

With StandardFileSystemManager I'm also having the same error:

SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setTimeout(opts, connectionTimeout);
SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setIdentityInfo(opts);

SftpFileSystemConfigBuilder.getInstance().setStrictHostKeyChecking(opts, "no");
StandardFileSystemManager fsManager = new StandardFileSystemManager();
fsManager.init();

Got me this error:

Caused by: org.apache.commons.vfs2.FileSystemException: Could not connect to SFTP server at "digital.crossix.com".

I have tried other solution offered in these links which didn't solve it:

Note that none of these errors is exactly the same as the error I'm facing - they are a bit similar. Didn't found someone that had the exact error I'm facing.

When I was working with FileZilla this is the log I was seeing in console:

What can I do to solve this error?

Solution

  • This config was missing and with it, I was able to connect

    Properties config = new Properties();
    config.put("kex","diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1");
    

    and log:
