If You had an error "no valid upgrade options were found" or any other error, make sure that You are:
-> Using a Supported IE version.
-> That the Server IP Address is added to the Trusted Sites List.
-> That the settings are correct, something similar to :
    Source             : DVD/CD (if you are mounting a CD to the VM)
                -- or --  Remote Filesystem if You are using FTP or SFTP
    Directory          : \
    Server          : FTP/SFTP IP Address only (by default, FTP port is 21 and SFTP port is 22)
    User Name          : FTP/SFTP Username
    User Password          : FTP/SFTP Password
    Transfer Protocol    : SFTP -or- FTP (if You are using Remote File system)
    SMTP Server          : None (in version 9.x/10.x)
    Email Destination     : None (in version 9.x/10.x)
-> Make sure that the Installation files exists in the correct folders, some programs like "FreeFTPd" creates another folder with the name of the FTP/SFTP Username You specified and makes it the root folder.

Hope this helps, Thank You :-)

This one is tricky!

Whatever path you put on the SFTP server, it will appear on the CUCM as /.

But CUCM will create a subfolder "cisco", and you have to put the file under that.

Note that you do not have to indicate the automatically created folder cisco on the SFTP server path.

[Jaime Valencia]

No, that's wrong, during the upgrade process, CUCM only READS the content of the TFTP, it will not create any subfolder.

If you're using freeFTPD and created a user named cisco, the program itself is the one that created the folder under the root location, but it's not CUCM doing that.

You can simply map the specific user to a directory and use it as root, and it will do so.

your are the one brother,your advice solve my problem

You need to create a folder for your user under sftproot folder. And in the user folder you need to put your file.

Check the properties of your user "test", if Home directory is linked to the folder where you've put the Cisco file.

+5 for the above two posts.  As they said the user's home directory not the SFTP home directory will be used for looking for the file.  Additionally try using "/" without the quotes for the path rather than ".".

I experienced exactly the same problem while upgrading from CUCM 10.5.1 to 10.5.2 version. A solution for me was to put upgrade files into a new directory (let's say upgradeDirectory) which residues in an FTP user path and then in the CUCM upgrade's Directory field put "/upgradeDirectory" value.

Hi Yazen,

Just to add what everyone has said, almost always I use an FTP/SFTP client (coreFTP is my favorite) to test the configuration before I try with Cisco, it makes it much easier to correct any issues with the SFTP Servers.

Further more, I almost always use the CoreFTP Server which is licensed version however if you try it a few times, I am sure you will like the product so much that you will not mind to get the lic as well.

Eval is always free for I guess 60 days.

Hi Yazen,

Use this software attached (SolarWinds SFTP). I have problem with FreeSFTP in large files.

So, remmenber that you need create a account in SFTP Server and setup a password <cisco>.

PS: In some system operation like windows 2008, 2012 you will need start the application in services. Control Painel>Administrative Tools>Services (find the services SolarWinds and turn on)

One more information here, in cucm you will map the directory as <./ > just point and bar.

Best regards,

CUCM will create a sub folder named as "cisco" under TFTP path you mentioned , and you have to put the file under that.
