TFile::Cp problem

Hi,

I am trying to use TFile::Cp to copy a file from my local PC to AliEn. When I use this command, it fails:

root [1] TFile::Cp("STEERBase.par",
"alien:///alice/cern.ch/user/p/pulvirenti/STEERBase.par") Error in <TXNetFile::CreateXClient>: open attempt failed on alien:///alice/cern.ch/user/p/pulvirenti/STEERBase.par?filetype=raw&mkpath=1 Error in <TFile::Cp>: cannot open destination file alien:///alice/cern.ch/user/p/pulvirenti/STEERBase.par (Bool_t)(0)

the file I want to copy is in the directory from which I start the ROOT session, and the path I use as target is present in AliEn.

can someone help me in understanding what is wrong with it?

thanks, best regards.
