Why do you think the problem is because of a special character in the password?
Anyway, did you try to URL-encode it?

Refer to above problem have found it is because of special charater in password, the issue that the policy doesn't accept password without special characters and I am stuck up because I cannot automate the download process and needs manual intervention to download the file.

Pl. advice

Hi,

I have resolved the issue. Password has special characters that caused the problem. I have converted special characters to Hexa that solved the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Unable to authenticate SFTP Credentials using Batch Script

Hi,

Herewith I am attaching the log file from GUI WINSCP.

From GUI if I enter the password directly it is asking for the password again & again during authentication. If I check the option to save the password then it won't ask and started working in GUI.

I am doubting that through script password is not storing correctly.

Please help me.

Regards,

Re: Unable to authenticate SFTP Credentials using Batch Script

Please attach a log file from GUI for comparison.

You also better use the latest version of WinSCP.

Unable to authenticate SFTP Credentials using Batch Script

WINSCP - Version 5.12
Version of Windows - Windows 7
Transfer Protocol - SFTP
Error : Disconnected: Unable to authenticate

I am connecting SFTP Server using username and password directly in the batch script, but it is not working. I am not using host key and I am using the password directly.

I able to connect to my SFTP server using Graphical user interface with same credentials.

The Batch Script is mentioned below.

option batch abort
option confirm off
open sftp://username:password@Server Name
exit

Password had characters like +-. I don't know this will cause the issue.

Error :
