  Problem Description:
  The SFTP Client Move service fails in case a file of the same
  name exists in the remote target directory. The error message
  displayed in this scenario is: "Server responded with an unknown
  failure: Failure: ". This message doesn't clearly state the

Problem conclusion

• Resolution Summary:
  A code fix is provided.
  
  The SFTP Client Move service now first checks if the source file
  with the same name already exists at the target destination.
  If it exists, the process fails with this message:
  A file <absolute name of target file > already exists at this
  target location, so the source file: <absolute name of source
  file> cannot be moved here".
