synchronize remote issue

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a scripted job to copy some log files from A to B however I'm having some issues... see the details below.


The script I am running is this -

"open sftp://username@x.x.x.x/

synchronize remote D:\Directory\Backups\2015_08_09\Directory\2015_08_09\Directory

exit"


The problem I have is that the file path changes daily to include a date in the folder path.

I've tried using the path masks but I get the following message from the WinSCP console - "Nothing to Synchronize"

If I enter the exact file path the directory sync's without problem.


Thanks

If it is today's date, you can use:

synchronize remote D:\Directory\Backups\%TIMESTAMP#yyyy_mm_dd%\Directory\%TIMESTAMP#yyyy_mm_dd%\Directory

See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scripting#timestamp

If not, you have to generate the WinSCP script.

For examples, see:
