[Solved] SFTP error - Couldn't close file: Failure

I am trying to send a file from my 9000 box to a vendor using sftp and I am getting this error: Couldn't close file: Failure

Here are the results of my automated script:

Connected to yyy.com.
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /
sftp> cd xxxxx/yyyyy_TEST/TEST
sftp> put FILE FILETEST
Uploading FILE to /xxxxx/yyyyy_TEST/TEST/FILETEST
Couldn't close file: Failure

sftp> quit

Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

Never mind. The vendor had to something on their server to remedy it.
