[quote="TimU"]Your [m]SAMPLE.TXT[/m] script seems flawed.

Try this:
[b]Sample.txt[/b]
[code]@winscp@
# Automatically abort script on errors 
option batch abort 
# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous 
option confirm off 
# Force binary mode transfer 
option transfer binary 
# Establish the connection 
open username:password@ipaddress:10022
# Change the Local Directory 
lcd "Z:\"
# Change to the correct Remote directory 
cd /<RemoteDirectory>
# List the local files 
lls 
# List Remote Files
ls
# Upload *.csv
put "*.csv"
[/code]
This will give you a list of the Local Directory and the Remote Directory so you can be sure you're looking at the correct locations.

I'm assuming that Z: refers to a mapped network drive? Pls be aware that this won't be available if you're planning on running this script as a scheduled task, unless you map it manually in the tasks batch file.

You're better off using this command to be universally accessible:
[code]@winscp@
# Change the Local Directory 
lcd "\\servername\share"[/code]
Hope this helps.

Re: order of uploading files

2012-03-21 01:56

@clt: You could either:

Script it externally then call WinSCP with a known list of files to transfer.
Run multiple WinSCP passes over your source directory, first transferring *.gpg, then *.chk.

Here's an extract of a Windows Batch script that will append file names to an existing SFTP Batch Script

DIR /a-d /b *.gpd %source.path% >%SFTP.batch.filelist%
DIR /a-d /b *.chk %source.path% >>%SFTP.batch.filelist%
 
:: If there are no files in the source directory to transfer, leave the script.
if errorlevel==1 (@ECHO Nothing To Do - Exiting Script)&(Goto :EOF)
 
@ECHO File Listing Complete
 
:: Now echo the file names to the script, including the SFTP.OPERATION we want to perform.
@ECHO Echo the file names to the SFTP Script file
for /f "tokens=*" %%A in (%SFTP.batch.filelist%) do (echo PUT -preservetime "%%A" >>%SFTP.batch.script%)

Order of uploading files

2012-03-19 14:44

Hi @Martin, or anybody..
Is it possible to control the order of files uploading on the server? I have .gpg and .chk files and WinSCP upload .chk first (I assume that in alphabetical order). I need to upload e.g. first.gpg, then first.chk, second.gpg then second.chk etc. Thank you!

Hi,
Thanks for your response,
I have installed WinSCP (version 4.3.3) in my machine.
The script is working fine.
But while sending file it show an error stating that "Ignore permission errors" while sending the file.
please guide me how to correct the error.

Thanks and regards,
Gnana sundram.

Hi,
Thanks for sample script, but I am getting the same error.
I followed the same step which you have given. But I am getting the below error

winscp>put *.CSV

*.csv    0kb  0.0kb/s binary 0%

file or folder '*.csv' does not exit

But when I give filename.csv transfer is successful – shows below message.

winscp>put filename.csv

filename   0kb  0.1kb/s binary : 100%

But I want to transfer multiple file at a time.

Thanks and Regards,
Gnanasundram

Consider using a newer version. 4.3.7 stable or 5.0.5 beta

Your SAMPLE.TXT script seems flawed.

Try this:
Sample.txt

# Automatically abort script on errors 
option batch abort 
# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous 
option confirm off 
# Force binary mode transfer 
option transfer binary 
# Establish the connection 
open username:password@ipaddress:10022
# Change the Local Directory 
lcd "Z:\"
# Change to the correct Remote directory 
cd /<RemoteDirectory>
# List the local files 
lls 
# List Remote Files
ls
# Upload *.csv
put "*.csv"

Hi,

Thanks for your response.
I want to upload a file to server using SFTP and for that I use winscp.exe (using GUI working fine) WinSCP version 3.7.1
Now I want to automate the file transfer.
I tried the below script for automation:
Batch file

start "D:\new test\" winscp.exe /console /script=sample.txt"

Sample.txt

open username:password@ipaddress:10022
option batch on
option confirm off
cd /filename
put "Z:\*.csv"

Now when I click on bat file it connect to server and get stopped in the put command and shows an error file not found. But when I give file put filename.csv then the file gets uploaded.

Re: Winscp- want ot upload multiple files

What is the actual problem?

There are files matching the mask and WinSCP does not find them
There are indeed no files matching the mask and you want WinSCP to silently do nothing

Also what version of WinSCP are you using?
