Coldfusion SFTP folder and all its contents (recursively)

Coldfusion SFTP folder (recursively)

cfftp tag in Coldfusion will only put 1 file at a time. Use this component to SFTP a folder and all it's contents including subdirectories and subdirectory contents!! 

NOTE: For SFTP you need to get the SSH server fingerprint to be able to connect. I got the fingerprint using Bitvise Tunnelier.

Hi Ian,
I am trying to use this CFC (well written BTW), and the issue that I am having is that it will upload the first file, then create the directory (which is the second item in the CFDIrectory result list), add all the appropriate files to that folder, and then it jumps out of the folder, but it's keeping the name of the last HTML file that was uploaded into the previous folder and trying to FTP that, and of course errors out. I am assuming that once a subfolders contents are FTP'd, then it's supposed to jump out of that folder, and if it encounters another sub-folder, create that one, upload the files, etc... Has anyone else encountered this? The only change I made to the CFC was line 30. I changed <cfset application.cfcs.sftp.SFTPFolderContents( to <cfset SFTPFolderContents( because I was receiving the error. Element CFCS.SFTP is undefined in a Java object of type class [Ljava.lang.String; referenced as ''. Thanks, Bruce
