Getting and error with host key...
Hello.
First thank you in advance for any help... I am pretty new with scripting and I do not use it much so this may be a simple question so if it is I am sorry...
I had this script working but I had to replace a piece of equipment so I needed to update the U/P and the host key and now it does not work
I start WinSCP from a batch file called CloudBackup in the script it runs this command
The
If I manually logon to WinSCP and paste the above script into the screen it works just fine and authenticates as you see from my screen...
If I run my script and I look at the log file it fails and the log file looks like this
I just do not understand why the host key can validate if I run the script manually but does not work if I run it through the script.
Please help me
Thanks
Gary
