Re: Need help with script -

It's not true that you cannot use the ^ in Windows batch file. Of course, you can. Your problem is those two quotes after the /temp.

This should work: 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^

  /log="C:\ftp2\WinSCP.log" /ini=nul ^

  /command ^

  "open ftp://mysite:Pa$$w0rd@IP.ADDR/" ^

  "synchronize remote -mirror \\<My local share>\path\xyz\abc /temp" ^

  "exit"
Natasha

Thnx,

Here is the result now, please advise, 

C:\ftp2>"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /log="C:\ftp2\WinSCP.log" /ini=nul /command "open ftp://mysite:Pa$$w0rd@IP.ADDR/ synchronize remote -mirror "synchronize remote -mirror \\<My local share>\path\xyz\abc /temp" "exit"

Scripting does not use standalone parameters. The parameters you have specified on command-line will not be used. Your command-line syntax is probably wrong.

Opening session using command-line parameter in scripting is deprecated. Use 'open' command instead.

Searching for host...

Host "\\<mysite>\share\share\share" does not exist.

Connecting to IP.ADDR/

Connected

Starting the session...

Session started.

Active session: [1] mysite@IP.ADDR/

Missing parameter for command 'synchronize'.

Guys I am simply trying to sync my \\localshare path\ with the remote dirctory on "mysite"
And keep on getting:

[code]
. 2016-09-16 19:04:00.386 Error listing directory '/temp ^'. ("Could not retrieve directory listing","Failed to change directory.")

[/code]

I have made the temp directory on the remote server so I know its there, why can't my script find it, even though it connects just fine? Please help, ..

Basically, I want to:
a) copy all files from my \\share to the remote directory \\temp
b) schedule a batch job to keep the files insync
Thats all.

Let me know if you guys can help me with the script, thanks.[/code]
