AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'open_sftp'

Question

I am trying to fetch the data from SFTP from some particular folder but getting the following issue:

File "/usr/local/airflow/plugins/kyber/sftp_to_s3_operator.py", line 59, in execute sftp_client = ssh_client.open_sftp() AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'open_sftp'

It is caused because `ssh_client` is `None`, so check its value. — Ohad Chaet, Mar 01 '19 at 11:28
I checked the value of SSH_CLEINT; its None. Any reasons why it is coming as None — Yogesh Sharma, Mar 01 '19 at 11:37
@YogeshSharma that would depend on what you set it to be in your code. Maybe look at [How to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example](https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve). — Phydeaux, Mar 01 '19 at 11:40

try:

apt-get install openssh-client

cause sftp it's a service from SSH (secure FTP)

The question is about Python SFTP **client library** (pysftp), not about a **server**. – Martin Prikryl Mar 01 '19 at 12:32
