 +To check results of the script you can: 
 +  * Check exit code of WinSCP (exit code is the only relevant and reliable way to check if script completed successfully). See example below and [[faq_script_result|FAQ]]. 
 +· * Save and inspect log file. [[logging_xml|XML log format]] is recommended. Use command-line parameter ''[[commandline#logging|/xmllog]]''. 
 +  * Save and inspect output of the script. Use [[executables|output redirection]]. 
 + 
 +Once you find out what was the result of the script, you can perform any action you like. E.g. after evaluating exit code of WinSCP, you can send a "success" or "error" email. For that use any command-line email client you like, e.g. [[https://www.glob.com.au/sendmail/|sendmail]].((When installing sendmail, you can ignore all references to ''/usr/lib/'' (or ''c:\usr\lib'') directories in its installation instructions, as you will be running ''sendmail.exe'' directly from a Windows batch file. Just place sendmail files to any convenient location, e.g. along with WinSCP.)) 
 + 
 +You should also make the batch file indicate a result in its exit code, particularly if it is called from some parent system (for example [[guide_ssis|SSIS]]). 
 + 
 +See an example batch file: 
 + 
 +<code batch> 
 +winscp.com /ini=nul /script=example.txt 
 +if %ERRORLEVEL% neq 0 goto error 
 + 
 +echo Success 
 +sendmail.exe -t < success_mail.txt 
 +exit /b 0 
 + 
 +:error 
 +echo Error! 
 +sendmail.exe -t < error_mail.txt 
 +exit /b 1 
 +</code> 
 + 
 +A similar error handling is used in [[ui_generateurl|the batch file template]] that WinSCP can generate for you. 
 + 
 +Where for example content of ''success_mail.txt'' may be: 
 +<code> 
 +From: script@example.com 
 +To: me@example.com 
 +Subject: Success 
 + 
 +The files were uploaded successfully. 
 +</code&gt; 
 + 
 +//If you require checking results of each command individually, you should better use the [[library|WinSCP .NET assembly]]. Alternatively, see [[guide_automation_advanced|guide to advanced scripting]] for examples of checking script results (including XML log parsing) using more powerful languages and guide to [[guide_interpreting_xml_log|interpreting XML log for advanced scripting]] using C# language.//
