Have you tried using lftp instead of sftp command?

With "lftp" (you can take a look here
http://yips.idevcloud.com/wiki/index.php/pase/opensourcebinaries ) you
can use user and password , no expect required.

I am utilizing expect on several different servers. On one of them we
need
to sftp two small files up to a service periodically through the day.
When
I run the shell script in QSH it will run perfectly. Then I run it again
and it does absolutely nothing. It may be many minutes before it will
run
again. Signing off and back on doesn't consistently fix it either. When
submitted to batch it's the same, it may run and may not.

I am redirecting standard output to a log file (> 'output.log') and when
it runs correctly everything is in it. When it does not run the file is
correctly time stamped but is empty (0 bytes). Even when it's not
logging
it may fail, in that case if it's interactive QSH simply returns to
the '$'
prompt.

IBM i 7.1 with reasonably current PTFs and the latest version of expect
from ScottKlement.com.

Thoughts??
