source file is located in (elk.some.com)
scp -p vp141p@hstst191.hydc.sbc.com:/export/elk2/vp141p/PM_Build_SBS/Build_PVT_SBS/dist/current/Filename.ear .
The above code is doing is copying to home directory of remote machinf
But i need to copy it to specific directory
scp -p vp141p@hstst191.hydc.sbc.com:/export/elk2/vp141p/PM_Build_SBS/Build_PVT_SBS/dist/current/Filename.ear /export/home/vp141p/ARCHIVE
it gives error
But a directory is already there and all the permissions are there
Perhaps it can't find the originating file, then.
The source file is there as iam able to copy successfully using the above command i posted

scp syntax is :
scp local_file.txt your_username@remotehost.edu:/some/remote/directory
So, in that case
scp -p /export/elk2/vp141p/Somedir/dist/current/Filename.ear
vp141p@hstst191.hydc.sbc.com:/export/home/vp141p/ARCHIVE
should work.
Well, that's not the correct syntax for "cp".
It seems you're using the same "username@hostname:/path" syntax with "scp" as well as with "cp".
If that was just a typo in your post, then either the source or destination locations might not exist at all.
i used the same syntax . it was giving the error
