You can set batch off before the open command and enable the batch on mode only after.

Script only waits 9 seconds for a password to be entered

Hello,

I have a batch script that uses a connection entry from my ini file that does not have a password set. No matter what value I put in the /timeout setting, the script only waits 9 seconds before failing the connection. Is there any way I can make it wait a little longer for a user to input the password?

Script example:

C:\WinSCP\WinSCP /timeout=60 /command "option batch on" "option confirm off" "open MyFTPSConnection" "ls ""/Home/Test Directory/""" "close" "exit" /log=C:\WinSCP\test_LOG.xml

test_LOG.xml contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
-<session start="2015-05-06T18:34:49.843Z" name="MyFTPSConnection" xmlns="https://winscp.net/schema/session/1.0">
-<failure>
<message>Connection failed.</message>
<message>Using TLSv1.2, cipher TLSv1/SSLv3: AES128-SHA256, 2048 bit RSA</message>
<message>Connection failed.</message>
<message>PASS: parameters are incorrect</message>
</failure>
</session>

Any help is appreciated
