Sorry, I do not know if the problem is specific to a particular software/hardware.

Is this a known issue/problem then? Being behind a particular make/model/firmware version of router/routing software etc?

I wonder how one could check this.

Re: WinSCP 99% file transfers but times out and retries

Yes, it's likely the same issue.

Duplicate? https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22780

Although the OP has gone AWOL and not left a response.

A workaround to this I have just discovered which seems to work well for me (posting on forums generally makes you think more) is to put resumesupport on, so when it retries it see's that it is already finished =)

WinSCP 99% file transfers but times out and retries

Hello,

I've done a lot of things and searching to try and solve this to no avail. I am using WinSCP 5.7.3 (Build 5348) and have also tried the latest version (at the time of writing 5.7.7 (Build 6257)). I'm using Windows7 and FileZilla for ftp (FileZilla server version 0.9.49.0).

I have a large file (190MB) that I am trying to synchronize via scripting, small files sync fine. It seems to get to 99% and then times out to the set timeout time (2mins in my case). Here is how I attempt to accomplish that via scripts:

WinSCP.com /script=dosync.txt /log="c:\winscp.log" /loglevel=0

option batch continue
option confirm off
open ftp://user:pass@domain.co.uk:21 -explicit -timeout=120 -certificate="00....00" -rawsettings PingType=2
synchronize remote -transfer=automatic -delete -resumesupport=off -filemask="*.png,*.jpg,*.jpeg,*.bmp,*.gif,*.tga,*.mp4" "T:\...\galleries" "galleries"
close
exit

I have tried this with very large timeouts and without -rawsettings PingType=2 which hasn't made a difference.

Here is what the logging says at the point of interest:

I have auto retry on so this will continue forever. I put a very large timeout in and I can look where the file is syncing too and byte for byte it has transferred successfully however, when it retries the sync it deletes the file and starts over.

Any ideas?
