Hi tictak,

I have the same issue when exe working fine and com not.
Could you please share what was solution in your case?

Ilkin

please ignore all my posts :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

thank you

Sorry again. I wrote a package which calls command prompt interface to upload the files to the server. I would like to know how I can prevent the above issue using WinSCP.com instead of WinSCP.exe

I made changes to the WinSCP.exe it is working fine but not Command Prompt Interface.

Can you please help me with it.


Thanks a lot

Thank you i was able to figure it out :D

I am sorry I am unable to find "disable resume" and "preserve timestamp" in "preferences" . can you please provide me few more details where i can find it.

Thanks! Thank took care of it.

You also need to disable "preserve timestamp".

On the general question of whether it makes sense, I would think that given the user is explicitly using a switch that tells the software not to preserve permissions would argue against them being set.

The switch says to "set permissions". Which I understand as opposite to "preserving existing permissions for existing files and using default system permissions for new files". Question is, how the others understand it :)

Gave it a try and it worked like a charm with the resume set to off in Preferences. That gets me by my issue. On the general question of whether it makes sense, I would think that given the user is explicitly using a switch that tells the software not to preserve permissions would argue against them being set. Either way, great software! :D

I'm sorry. I was abroad. Thanks for your donation!

Regarding the problem. It happens because you have resume support enabled. Then WinSCP uploads the file first to temporary name, renaming it to target name only after successful transfer. To preserve permissions, it then resets permissions of renamed file to permissions of original file, even if "set permissions" is off. It is for discussion if this is good behaviour or not.

However to solve your problem, disable resume support in preferences.

Any feedback on this issue?

Also, I just donated. :mrgreen: Thanks for a great program!

It works for me... Can you post a log file?

Hi,

I am running a batch command which uploads a single file to a SFTP server with the 4.1.2 Beta. The file is transferred correctly the first time I upload the file but on subsequent uploads where it overwrites the file there is an issue. The command I am executing is:

put -nopreservetime -nopermissions QA_Export_Invivo_2008_05_09.xls

The error I receive is:

Upload of file 'QA_Export_Invivo_2008_05_09.xls' was successful, but error occurred while setting the permissions and/or timestamp. If the problem persists, turn on 'Ignore permission errors' option.
The server does not support the operation.
Error code: 8
Error message from server: SSHServerAPI.SFTP.fxp_attrs
Request code: 9
(A)bort, (R)etry, (S)kip, Ski(p) all: Abort

My assumption is that WinSCP should not be messing with the timestamp at all given it has been told not to preserve the timestamp. Is this the expected behavior?

Version is 4.1.2 Beta
Interface is batch
Command line is:
"C:\Program Files\WinSCP\winscp.com" /script=WinSCP_Script.scp /log=WinSCP.log

Script file (WinSCP_Script.scp) is:
open UserName:Password@IP_Address
option echo on
option batch abort
option confirm off
# Local directory listing
lls
# Remote directory listing
ls
put -nopreservetime -nopermissions QA_Export_Invivo_2008_05_09.xls
exit
