Re: WinSCP and scheduled tasks

If you need to use proxy, you have to specify that in the script.

If you have proxy set up in WinSCP GUI, you can have the GUI generate a script template for you:

WinSCP and scheduled tasks

Hello! I've a problem when using WinSCP with scheduled task. By using one of my accounts the task works fine without errors. When I try to set a different win user (in this case an user used to run batches and services) the transfer fails. It seems, if I understood correctly, that this "service" user can't use settings and skip the proxy.

This is the log file:

This is the command line

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /script=D:\Apps\WinSCP\WinSCP_ApiceFTP_ProdM.txt /log=D:\Apps\WinSCP\WinSCP_ApiceFTP_ProdM.log

and this is the txt file

open iqelux@ftp.pqpro.net
synchronize remote \\EUWCL022-01\PrIDE_FS_PROD\Attach\ProdMxApice "/"
#close the session
close
#exit the scripting environment
exit

Any idea?
