Hi. I have same trouble.
yes sometimes works, sometimes no.
Expected SSH_FXP_ATTRS or SSH_FXP_STATUS
But I just "guess" it is from network trouble, something like unstable connection. it is just guessing .
Does somebody knows this case?

Hi all!
I'm using the SFTP driver in Laravel to fetch files from a remote SFTP server. I have installed the required packages (league/flysystem-sftp) and everything works fine (sometimes).
The issue I am having is intermittent and usually results in the following error:
Expected SSH_FXP_ATTRS or SSH_FXP_STATUS
I think this implies that my application did not receive a response. However occasionally (maybe 20% of the time) the connection will succeed.
I can login to SSH and SFTP (via Filezilla) successfully every time.
I have noticed that their are a lot of attempted SSH logins in the auth.log file, (I'm in the process of restricting SSH to key authentication only).
Since the server I am connecting to is quite low-spec (Digital Ocean's $5 droplet, Ubuntu 20.04).
I am at a bit of a loss as to could be causing this intermittent behavior, has anyone encountered anything like this?
