Questions about synchronize [rename & delete]
Hi
the SFTP server is on remote VPS, winscp app is at local
I am trying to synchronize multiple files and directories at local c:\local\ and remote /D/remote/, both windows OS.
**Both sides {local or remote} may create/delete/edit/rename files or directories at any time**
Existing Folder Structures:
Synchronize Code:
Create and Edit works without issue.
Create:
When I create files and folders on both sides, it syncs to the other side. So create is all good with the above code.
Edit:
When I edit something in File_B2.txt on both sides, it syncs to the other side. So Edit is all good with the above code.
Delete and rename doesn't work as expected.
Delete:
When I delete files and folders on both sides, it wont delete on the other side.
eg: Steps
.......1) delete folder C:\local\Folder_B
.......2) run the above synchronize Code
it will
.......1) download Folder_B from remote to local
Code: synchronize -delete remote C:\local\ /D/remote/ will work with the above situation.
But it fails if user delete files or folders on remote server first.
Rename:
When I rename files and folders on both sides, it wont rename on the other side.
eg:Steps:
.......1) rename File_1.txt to File_3.txt at Local C:\local\ folder.
.......2) run the above synchronize Code
it will
.......1) download File_1.txt from remote to local
.......2) upload File_3.txt from local to remote
Not sure how to achieve rename with synchronize, when I test keepuptodate it works.
How to code it to make delete and rename work at any time?
Thanks for your help.
