WinSCP Noob, having a nightmare scripting

2011-08-12 08:40

Hi,

I'm trying to automate a copy job. it's just local at the moment as I want to test the logging.

option batch on
option confirm off
option transfer binary
open 127.0.0.1
cd D:\Axway\

lcd "D:\test\"

put *.*

close
exit

"D:\Program Files\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /script:"D:\Script\Test.txt"

It fails with the following error:
batch on
confirm off
transfer binary
Searching for host...

Network error: Connection refused.
No session.
D:\test
No session.
No session.

Could really do with a kick in the right direction :)

Cheers T1b

Are you able to log in in the GUI? If you are, enable loging both in the GUI and script. And compare the log files, to see what the session configuration differes in.

Hi,

I think it's more about me being a complete Noob, can you "generate" script via the GUI?

I just want to copy from the local machine point A to Local machine point B.

I figure, I'm just being dense.

Many thanks,

T1b :)
