Code is the same, but text has changed from "530 User cannot log in." to "530 User cannot log in, home directory inaccessible. "

It was error 530 all the time.

Anyways it works now. In my IIS8 I deleted bindings for FTP server.
I have no idea if it's IIS8 problem or what, but with login like "hostname|user" it doesn't work (hostname added in bindings in IIS). With just "user" it works (without hostname in bindings in IIS).

And code is as follows if anybody needs:

But that's a different error than before. So the error changed when you used a password without special characters, right?

It's not user/password. It's remote directory which this script force to use 'home' instead any provided in $remotePath

You didn't show us your code. So we do not know what you refer to by $remotePath.

Could you send me .dll to 5.6.3 version?
You've sent me .dll to 5.5.6.0 version

No I did not. Please try to download the winscp20141031rmalvaautomation.zip again.

is there any special character in your password?

No matter what path I will add to:
$remotePath

log shows 'home' which is not correct path.

. 2014-11-03 15:10:38.827 Local directory: default, Remote directory: home, Update: Yes, Cache: Yes

GUI log shows correct path:

. 2014-10-30 12:36:02.452 Local directory: C:\Users\xxxx\Documents, Remote directory: /test, Update: Yes, Cache: Yes

There's nothing like $session.remotePath.

Anyway, is there any special character in your password?
I'm sending you a dev version of WinSCP to address you have used to register on this forum.

What I discovered is that no matter what I will post in $session.remotePath, in logs there is always "home".


GUI log shows correct path.

Please attach a log from GUI.

Maybe there's a problem that username is ftp.something.com|USER ?

Thanks does not seem to be the problem. As you can see in the log, correct username is passed to USER command.

I have a problem connecting to my FTPS server from Powershell. From GUI my username/pass works.
Maybe there's a problem that username is ftp.something.com|USER ?
Please help.
