Thanks Mike,
I am new to Apache Guacamole. I am learning and implementing features of
Guacamole. Whenever I came across any situation where stuff doesn't work I
went through the JIRA tickets and forum. If still I doesn't get any help
then I find suitable enough to send mail for your help.
I am not aware about how this thread works therefore I put all questions in
the same thread.
I am really apologize for not being patient. I will definitely try to more
patient.
I really appreciate for your help and valuable feedback.
Thanks and Regards,

Correct. The "sftp-directory" does not control this. It only affects
drag-and-drop uploads.

The "sftp-directory" parameter does not control this. It only controls the
default upload directory for drag-and-drop uploads. Only the
"sftp-root-directory" parameter controls which directory is exposed via
SFTP.

If you enable both traditional drive redirection and SFTP, file transfer
via drag-and-drop will use drive redirection. The upload will go over SFTP
only if that is the only file transfer mechanism enabled, or if you
explicitly upload via SFTP using the Guacamole menu.

When transferring via drag-and-drop, the file will be transferred to the
location specified within "sftp-directory" (this is the purpose of that
parameter). Based on the configuration information you've provided, you
should find the uploaded file within /tmp on your Guacamole server.

Amarjeet - this is an awful lot of questions, some of which do not deal
with the original topic. If you have additional questions which do not
relate to the original subject of the thread (your issues opening the
virtual drive within the RDP session), please open a new thread.

-
* It is showing / directory as sftp-directory. User is able to access all
the directories of the SSH server and upload in any directory. I want the
user to upload only in the directory defined in sftp-directory parameter.*

3. when I configure both *enable-drive* ad *enable-sftp*, then DRAG and
DROP does not work ( though Guacamole client shows that file is
transferred successfully ). When I use only enable-drive, then it works
fine.
configurations are as below :-
<param name="enable-drive">true</param>

4. When I am configuring only SFTP transfer , then also drag and drop
doesn't work ( though Guacamole client shows that file is transferred
successfully ).
5. Do Guacamole supports virtual channels or dynamic channels ?
6. I tried to copy image but it didn't worked. I digged into guacamole.js
where it do support copy of image.
Please help me to resolve the above issues. I would be very grateful to you.

Did you recently reconnect to Guacamole?
When the RDP connection is closed and reestablished, resources from the
previous connection become unavailable, including the virtual drive exposed
by the Guacamole server. This doesn't technically relate to Guacamole, but
rather how Windows handles mapped drives associated with RDP sessions. You
might need to close that Explorer window and open a new one, to stop
Explorer from trying to open the drive that no longer exists.

The "sftp-directory" parameter does not control the root directory of the
SFTP filesystem, but rather the default upload directory for files uploaded
via drag-and-drop. From the section covering RDP + SFTP in the manual [1]:
"sftp-directory - The directory to upload files to if they are simply
dragged and dropped, and thus otherwise lack a specific upload location.
This parameter is optional. If omitted, the default upload location of the
SSH server providing SFTP will be used."
If you're trying to control the root directory of the SFTP filesystem
overall, the parameter you're looking for is "sftp-root-directory", but
beware that support for that parameter was added very recently. It has not
been released. The associated issue in JIRA is:
