SFTP On New or Update throws error Pipe close

Question

I'm using the "On New or Update" source of the Mule 4 SFTP Connector, to process files from an SFTP server directory. The process works fine, however while reading the last file the SFTP connector throws an error as shown below and the file remains in directory waiting next schedule time to be picked up and the same thing will happen for the last file of other new set of files.

Any thoughts on how to fix this issue?

Error Pipe closed in SFTP indicates a communication error that the SFTP connector can not resolve, so the operation fails. I don't believe that there is anything that you can do about that. You might try to test a newer version of the connector if you are using an older one, just in case.

Do you think adding connection strategy will resolve the issue? – james11 May 04 '22 at 19:40
In my experience it didn't help, but I think I was working with an older version of Mule. You may want to test with latest versions to see if it makes a difference. – aled May 04 '22 at 19:47
im using the latest version of SFTP Connector. i ll try to configure connection strategy and see. thank you for your input – james11 May 04 '22 at 19:55
