Thanks for your response.

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

The question as to how the script is being invoked?

I'm using windows machine. So I just open file explorer and double click on the batch file.

The same question: How do you run the batch file?

Ntb, /passive=on specified on command-line won't get propagated to the script.

hi,

tagging onto this thread.
i also have the same problem.

scenario. i'm using a batch script to execute winscp.com

SET /P FILENAME=What is the name of the file to download?
ECHO File to download is: %FILENAME%

c:\"Program Files (x86)"\winscp\winscp.com /passive=on /script="c:\simple.txt" /parameter // "%FILENAME%"

c:\"Program Files (x86)"\winscp\winscp.com /script="c:\yt_simple.txt" /parameter // "%FILENAME%"


usually at the second call of the winscp.com, i will hit this problem.

with regards to the script (simple.txt, yt_simple.txt), basically, this is what happens

option echo on
option confirm off
open a site defined in winscp
lcd "c:/"
get -resume %1%.ts / put -resume %1%.ts
bye

WinSCP may inherit the redirection from the batch file. How do you run the batch file?

How can we increase the buffer?? Is there any way to resolve this.

Well that depends where and how (and if at all) you have the output redirected. But generally increasing the buffer size is not a solution. Solution is making sure the output is consumed continuously.

Yes sir, I already read the note, but I'm not invoking it from any program other than batch script

"Most commonly this happens when winscp.com has redirected output to a stream with limited buffer. If the stream is not being read from, the buffer gets eventually filled and winscp.com hangs, when trying to write into it. "

How can we increase the buffer?? Is there any way to resolve this.

Is it?

Did you read this?

Hi,

I'm getting following error while running from the batch script.

Timeout waiting for external console to complete the command. External console output is redirected to a pipe. Make sure the pipe is being read from.

Following is the batch script:
