Re: 50mb file fails to transfer via script only

Can you upload the file in WinSCP GUI?
Can you attach a verbose FileZilla log file?

50mb file fails to transfer via script only

I have a script setup that transfers a specific file once a day from one server to another using SFTP. When I run the script the transfer doesn't appear to start. The progress never moves past 0% and after 15 seconds it gives me an error about the server not responding. I have connected to the same server using the same credentials in FileZilla and the file transfers just fine with no issues.

My connection string uses "-rawsettings SendBuf=0" after reading another post but I get the same results with and without it. The only option I use is "option batch abort" but I also used continue and received the same response. No other commands besides a simple "put" statement are used.

Here is, what I believe to be, the portion from my log file that would help resolve this:

Also worth noting, there is plenty of space on the server and the user account does not high a file size limit or any other restrictive properties. As I said, the transfer of the same file worked flawlessly in FileZilla.

I use WinSCP scripts for a large number of tasks and this is the first time I've had any problem at all. I would greatly appreciate any and all help with this!
