Ignore/Skip All Permissions or Resume Support Errors

I have a client that immediately grabs all uploaded files to their ftp site once a file handle is closed on the file. This prevents resume support and changing permissions to work. Thus, I'd like to ignore such errors or disable the action causing them, but I haven't been able to find proper documentation on how to do this from a script.

Here is the command line:
WinSCP.com /script=G:\code\Statement_Upload.txt
Here is the script:
# Automatically abort script on errors 
option batch abort
# Enable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous 
option confirm on
# Force binary mode transfer 
option transfer binary
# Establish the connection to the Statements account
open sftp://user:pass@ftp.site.com:portnumber
# Change the Local Directory
lcd "X:\statements\ToBeSent"
# Change to the correct Remote directory 
cd /
# Upload the files ending with .TXT
put -nopermissions -resumesupport=off *.TXT
# Exit
exit

After running the script I get the following output in the console:
C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP>WinSCP.com /script=G:\code\Statement_Upload.txt
batch           abort
confirm         on
transfer        binary

Re: Ignore/Skip All Permissions or Resume Support Errors

The -nopermissions and -resumesupport=off is correct. Just add -nopreservetime and you should be fine.

I need to overwrite a remote file that isn’t owned by me, but I’m member of its group. The file has write permission for group. After transfer I get a message like “Upload of file <filename> was successful, but error occurred while setting the permissions and/or timestamp”

Excellent, that worked. I'd recommend adding more text to the error displayed in this instance to suggest the use of the -nopreservetime tag. Thanks again for the quick help. You're a rock star!

resumesupport switch not working

Hello,

I've seen a few solutions to turn off transfer resume support but none of them are working for me. And yes, I have read the FAQ. I'm trying to do this using a script. I'm using version 4.2.9

Here is the script I'm using:
option batch abort
option confirm off
open "sftp://user:password@myhost.us.db.com:0000"
option transfer binary
cd /user/user/outbox/target
lcd "mylocaldirectory"
put -nopermissions -resumesupport=off -nopreservetime * 
close
exit
I get this error
Unknown switch 'resumesupport'.
What am I doing wrong? Again, I've tried to read the FAQ.

Equivalent settings in VB.net

I tried same settings in VB.NET using following code;
Dim transferOptions As New TransferOptions
transferOptions.ResumeSupport = TransferResumeSupportState.Off
but this gives error that Property is Read Only.
