It works since 4.2.2 only. So it should work with 4.2.4. Please post your complete script and output of the console running it.

I am having a similar issue: testing a very simple script and it also insists on inserting %1% into the ls statement: (Pardon the paraphrasing on results; I don't have the window in front of me at the moment.)

'%1%': No such file or directory.

I've tried this on 4.1.8 and 4.2.4beta.

What about this one?

b) It wont accept hostkey automatically. I know there are security issues, but I have to log onto 400 machines in a loop and pick out select files from them.

It does, use -hostkey switch.

The latest stable release has the use of /parameter then why is that the script cannot be passed any arguments.

I have a scenario where I have to write a script where I log onto a server, check the directory listing. Choose which files to pick up and then download them on a regular basis.

WinSCP ver 4.1.9 is however causing many problems in this small effort.

It seems the WinSCP version I was using did not support /parameter.
Upgrading to 4.2.3 resolved my problem.

Hi
I'm trying to do something I would have thought was simple

WinSCP.exe /console /script=copyToP4.txt /parameter target\APReporting.war

And in copyToP4.txt at some point I have:

put %1%

but the console always says:

File or folder '%1%' does not exist.

So it seems that the parameter is not being resolved? What am I missing?
My WinSCP version is 4.0.4 (build 346).

Thanks Jan
