I have this script working, as was posted in the guides section, to check if a file exists. It works fantastically on Windows 7, but on server 2003 it will never return if the file is found. Any ideas?
Here is the script:
var FILEPATH = "../zfinance/TSA";
// Session to connect to
var SESSION = "someplace@somewhere.com";
// Path to winscp.com
var WINSCP = "c:\\program files\\winscp\\winscp.com";
var filesys = WScript.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
var logfilepath = filesys.GetSpecialFolder(2) + "\\" + filesys.GetTempName() + ".xml";
var p = FILEPATH.lastIndexOf('/');
var path = FILEPATH.substring(0, p);
var filename = FILEPATH.substring(p + 1);
var exec;
// run winscp to check for file existence
exec = shell.Exec("\"" + WINSCP + "\" /log=\"" + logfilepath + "\"");
exec.StdIn.Write(
"option batch abort\n" +
"open \"" + SESSION + "\"\n" +
"ls \"" + path + "\"\n" +
"exit\n");
// wait until the script finishes
while (exec.Status == 0)
{
WScript.Sleep(100);
WScript.Echo(exec.StdOut.ReadAll());
}
if (exec.ExitCode != 0)
{
WScript.Echo("Error checking for file existence");
WScript.Quit(1);
}
// look for log file
var logfile = filesys.GetFile(logfilepath);
if (logfile == null)
{
WScript.Echo("Cannot find log file");
WScript.Quit(1);
}
// parse XML log file
var doc = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0");
doc.async = false;
doc.load(logfilepath);
doc.setProperty("SelectionNamespaces",
"xmlns:w='http://winscp.net/schema/session/1.0'");
doc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
var nodes = doc.selectNodes("//w:file/w:filename[starts-with(@value, '" + filename + "')]");
if (nodes.length > 0)
{
WScript.Echo("File found");
// signalize file existence to calling process;
// you can also continue with processing (e.g. downloading the file)
// directly from the script here
WScript.Quit(0);
}
else
{
WScript.Echo("File not found"); //this is always the result on jack.ser
WScript.Quit(1);
}
