Hi

I'm new on this forum, but I'm using SCPFTP client for a while...
There was no problems since recently. I'm receiving message "Connection failed".

With connecting to SFTP servers, I do not have any problems.
But with FTP I have specific problem, that I couldn't find a resolution.

When I connect to the server from GUI it works. When I run manualy script it works.
But when I want to automate (with SSIS, or Task Sheduler) it won't work. It constantly returning error message. If I restart the server I run the SCPFTP it works for a day or two, but then just stops working. After restart, automated tasks works again for a while...

= This is my transfer.CMD file:
set isodate=%date:~10,4%%date:~7,2%%date:~4,2%
rem echo %isodate%
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /script=C:\tmpScripts\SOA2ADM9800.txt /log="\\v-orion-ftp\FTP_Data\_FTPlogs\SOA2ADM-9800-%isodate%.txt"

= This is the FTP script file:
option batch off
option confirm off
open ftp://user:pass@mobilemd1:21
option transfer ascii
put -delete -nopreservetime \\v-orion-ftp\FTP_Data\Log\Provisioning\FTP\SOA2ADM\9800-SOAadmMediation-??????????????.
mv *. *.TXT
close
exit

Do you have any suggestions?

How frequently are you running the task?

Once per minute per target server: 4 times FTP connection, 2 times SFTP connection.
Always sequentially from SQL job.

While the symptoms are somewhat different, it's possible that you are a victim of this bug:

Try to upgrade to the latest beta version.

Thanks for the help...

However, over the weekend I moved scripts for FTP conn only to another server.
I'm going to wait and see if the problem repeats (now I sheduled FTP transfers once per 5 minute). If it does, I will install the newest beta (5.2.6) and then hope for the best.

Thank you again
