SSH SCP functions not working with a certain server

[chadjohnson]

I can successfully transfer files to and from my server using the following code:

 

$connection = ssh2_connect('hostname', 3222);
ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password');

$sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection);

ssh2_scp_send($connection, '/local/directory/bug.gif', '/remote/directory/bug.gif', 0644);
ssh2_scp_recv($connection, '/remote/directory/bug.gif', '/local/directory/bug2.gif');

 

but when I try to do the same with a second server (have not tried a third) I get

 

Warning: ssh2_scp_send(): Failure creating remote file in /media/data/srv/www/test/sftp/prototype.php on line 8

Warning: ssh2_scp_recv(): Unable to receive remote file in /media/data/srv/www/test/sftp/prototype.php on line 9

 

The second server uses port 3222. I can in fact scp into this second server and transfer files via the command line as well as FileZilla and gFTP just fine. I do in fact have read/write permission on the target directory.

 

What's going on? Please help if possible--it's very urgent.
