SCP and SSHExec tasks
Hi
Is it possible to create the directories on the remote server on the fly as the scp ant task is executed or do I need to run sshexec to create them first?
Thanks

At Apache Forrest our "forrestbot" can deploy using
the Ant scp task.
It does certainly successfully create new remote directories.
We did have an issue in the past, noting that it
did work with some sshd servers.
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-819
Our issue links to this, where the "JSch" dev
provided a patch to Ant applied by Stefan.

I just now verified that all is okay using the server
against which i reported our original issue.
Of course, the other solutions discussed yesterday
are better, but 'scp' does work.

The scp task will not create remote directories. Also, there is no recursive
option. Yes, you can specify a fileset, but the directory structure will not
be preserved (as far as I know). If you are moving a bunch of files and want
to preserve the directory structure, the best thing to do is...
1. zip or tar.gz the files locally
2. scp the archive to the remote machine
3. sshexec to remote machine and unpack the archive

I use sshexec first, with a mkdir -p as the command. I also have a
couple of presetdef definitions to simplify making commands
<presetdef name="rpmssh">
<sshexec host="${rpm.ssh.server}"
username="${rpm.ssh.user}"
passphrase="${rpm.ssh.passphrase}"
trust="${rpm.ssh.trust}"
keyfile="${rpm.ssh.keyfile}"
timeout="${ssh.command.timeout}"
/>
</presetdef>
<presetdef name="rootssh">
<rpmssh
username="root"
timeout="${ssh.rpm.command.timeout}"
/>
</presetdef>
