It doesn't seem to matter what the path is.
It does seem to be resolving to the right point. Everything else I am doing besides removal is working happily. I am very confused.[/quote]

No it does not make it any more clearer. The code your have posted just works. Please post Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example

With the problem being related to the WinSCP.Lock, I tried adding a Thread.Sleep(3000) to give it some time to clear itself out before attempting the removal. This might have solved the issue as it appears to be working, but it feels a bit clunky.

Sorry Martin.

The stuff above the seperator is from my ftpsSession class

class FtpsSession

    {

public RemovalOperationResult RemoveFiles(string path)

    {

        using (WinSCP.Session session = new WinSCP.Session())

        {

          session.Open(Config.FtpSessionOptions);

          return session.RemoveFiles(session.EscapeFileMask(path));

        }

    } 

}

I hope that makes it clearer.

Re: Recursive calls not allowed - Deleting a directory

Your duplicate post on Stack Overflow:
<invalid hyperlink removed by admin>

While this post includes more code, it's not clear what is the ftpsSession and whether the ftpsSession.RemoveFiles is calling WinSCP Session.RemoveFiles or your RemoveFiles method.

Recursive calls not allowed - Deleting a directory

2016-08-19 16:25

I have established that directories exist. I go through the rfi.names list to removed them but always get the Recursive calls not allowed.

public RemovalOperationResult RemoveFiles(string path)

    {

        using (Session session = new Session())

        {

          session.Open(Config.FtpSessionOptions);

          return session.RemoveFiles(session.EscapeFileMask(path));

        }

    }

----------------------------------------------------

 RemoteDirectoryInfo rdi = ftpsSession.ListDirectory(ftpPath);

 foreach (RemoteFileInfo rfi in rdi.Files)

 {

    if (rfi.IsDirectory)

      {



         RemovalOperationResult ror;

         ror = ftpsSession.RemoveFiles(ftpPath + rfi.Name);

         if (ror.IsSuccess)

         {

         foreach (RemovalEventArgs removal in ror.Removals){

            log.Event("Removal of " + removal.FileName + " succeeded");

         }

     }

     else

     {

         log.Event("Removal failed.");

         return false;

     }

It doesn't seem to matter what the path is.
