I am trying to connect to remote sftp server over ssh with JSch (0.1.44-1) but during "session.connect();" I am getting this exception:

I am able to log in to remote server with linux sftp command. I was trying to find any kind of clue in the internet but I failed.

There are a couple of places that SSH clients and servers try and agree on a common implementation. Two I know of are encryption and compression. The server and client produce a list of available options and then the best available option in both lists is chosen.
If there is no acceptable option in the lists then it fails with the error you got. I'm guessing from the debug output here but it looks like the only server options for encryption are "aes256-cbc hmac-md5 none".
JSch doesn't do hmac-md5 and aes256-cbc is disabled because of your Java policy files. Two things you could try are...
- To increase the available encryption libraries on the server, install unrestricted policy files on your client, enabling aes256-cbc (make sure the message saying it is disabled goes away, those policy files are notoriously easy to install on the wrong JVM) from the Sun Java 6 download site,
- or try and disable encryption.
The first is ideal if you have access to the server (trust me aes128-cbc is plenty of encryption), but the second is easy enough to quickly test out the theory.
Finally a solution that works without having to make any changes to the server:
Download the latest jsch.jar as Yvan suggests: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsch/files/jsch.jar/
jsch-0.1.52.jar works fine
Place the downloaded file in your "...\JetBrains\PhpStorm 8.0.1\lib", and remove the existing jsch-file (for PHPStorm 8 it's jsch-0.1.50.jar)
Restart PHPStorm and it should work
Use the same solution for Webstorm
FWIW, I had this same error message under JSch 0.1.50. Upgrading to 0.1.52 solved the problem.
The issue is with the Version of JSCH jar you are using.
Update it to latest jar.
I was also getting the same error and this solution worked.
You can download latest jar from

The complete steps to add the algorithms to the RECEIVING server (the one you are connecting to). I'm assuming this is a Linux server.
sudo /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Add this to the file (it can be at the end):
KexAlgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
Then restart the SSH server:
sudo service sshd restart
I had the same issue, running Netbeans 8.0 on Windows, and JRE 1.7.
I just installed JRE 1.8 from https://www.java.com/fr/download/ (note that it's called Version 8
but it's version 1.8 when you install it), and it fixed it.
Make sure that you're using the latest version of JSch. I had this exact same problem when using JSch 0.1.31 and trying to connect to a RedHat 5 server. Updating to the latest version solved the problem.
add KexAlgorithms
diffie-hellman-group1-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 to
your sshd_config on the server.
This worked, but make sure you restart sshd:
sudo service sshd restart
The solution for me was to install the oracle unlimited JCE and install in JRE_HOME/lib/security. Then restarted glassfish and I was able to connect to my sftp server using jsch.
