Files not copying

So I have a script and it runs great for the most part, there is a new issue though. I have the script run every night and finishes in 30 mins after going through 550+ GB of data. This has been running for about 3 weeks now, but lately I found the files are not being copied over. In the logs it identifies new and modified files but they are not making to the destination directory. There are no errors for reading the source or destination folder. Any ideas on what is going on?

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

The log is very large, it will be sent in 2 parts.

part 2

Sorry, but I do not know what to do with those files. The backup.zip.zip file is not a valid ZIP file. And the backup_part2.tar file also does not look like a valid TAR file.

OK, I manually split the files and created new rar files. It's in 2 parts again.

part 2

I see you have 7 synchronize commands in your scripts.

Some do not find any change to synchronize.
Some find a change and do synchronize it.
And two of them fail for different reasons:

The second error is probably because of a too long path. WinSCP does not support paths longer than 260 characters with FTP protocol:

Sorry I got busy before I had a chance to reply, the directory with the issue is "share\public reports\reports"

That's caused by the second error in my previous post.

Any plans to support longer paths than 260 with FTP? I tried with 5.13.3 and it still fails when it tries to transfer path+filename that is more than 260 characters. Does more than 260 work with SFTP?

It's implemented already. It will be included into the next major release:
https://winscp.net/tracker/1337
I can send you a pre-release build, if you register.

Does more than 260 work with SFTP?

Yes.

Hi,

thank you for your reply. Yes please, I would like to get the pre-relase!

Markus

Thank you, thank you Martin for remembering about it! May I ask for pre-realase version too?

Sent to both of you.

Hi,

I get the same error using 5.14.4 RC (Build 9136) build over FTP. I thought this bug was addressed in previous version. Am I missing something? Also, can I skip over files/directories with this error to backup the rest of my files?

Here is the WinSCP log:
