Synchronization Fails

Hi I am trying to run a remote synchronization in batch mode where several gigabytes of small files are transferred. After a few minutes of running, I consistently receive an error in the client window:

Copying files to remote side failed.
Connection has been unexpectedly closed. Server sent command exit status 11.

I am using openssh server 3.6.1p2-33.30.3 and version 3.7.4 build 271 of WinSCP running on XP. Thanks in advance for your help.

What version of WinSCP are you using? Please check server's log file to find out why it closes the connection.

For the version of WinSCP I am running, see my previous post. The log at /var/log/messages is not very informative and merely reports the connection has close. No error appears. I tried running sshd in debug mode but it didn't yield very much useful information...there was some error about a read or write failure. I could get a dump of this log if you thought it would be useful.

Sorry, I've missed it.

Please do.

BTW, do you use SFTP or SCP?

I also get an unexpected connection fails error when I try to do a remote synchronization with many directories & jpg files.

I think it is a bug.

PS can anyone tell me how to save the synchronization sesion settings and run it automated daily?

Thank you,

Can you give me more information? Is there some regularity in occurences? ...

Save your settings on login dialog and then use it from script.
