winscp.com scripting disconnect with FTP over TLS

winscp.com and scripting for sync/backup a complete website over FTP and TLS stops after retrieving directory listing.

Using WinSCP 5.5.5 (Build 4605) on Windows 7 x64

The FTP-Server is a ProFTPd 1.3.5 on Linux x64 Debian 7.6

Some content of log/batch is anonymized by me!

Batch:
@echo off
setlocal
chcp 1252
 
set WINSCP=P:\WinSCP\winscp.com
set _BACKUPDIR=V:\BACKUP
%WinSCP% /log="%_BACKUPDIR%\winscp.log" /command "open u_ftp.WS1.de -explicittls" "synchronize local ""%_BACKUPDIR%\WS1\httpdocs\"" /httpdocs/" "exit" 
endlocal

Output from Batch:
Aktive Codepage: 1252.

The problem exists with other FTPS accounts, too. And Wiscp.exe does stop too with problem of directory listing.

Downloading files with FTPS client FileZilla or GoLive CS2 works fine without any connection break.
Seems to be WinSCP related problem.

I can send you the complete log by mail.

How can I/we fix the problem?

PS: Thanks a lot for WinSCP! A good tool used for years now.

Yes, I answered you by mail. I don't wanted to post internals of website to public and such log would be to big.

I looked into filezilla.log and saw some connection aborts. But FileZilla did reconnect and transferred all files with no error.

Seems winscp.com does not reconnect and does not try to resume the download/sync.

Related to Windows 8.0 as well.
netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFTP disable
helps in W8 too.
