Session session = new Session()
session.DisableVersioncheck = true;
session.Open(sessionOptions);
I have capture all the Exeception in C# and it fails at session.OPEN(). It says "cannot initialize external console".
at WinSCP.ElementLogReader.Read(LogReadFlags flags)
at WinSCP.CustomLogReader.TryWaitForNonEmptyElement(string localName, LogReadFlags flags)
at WinSCP.CustomLogReader.WaitForNonEmptyElement(string localName, LogReadFlags flags)
at winSCP.CustomLogReader.WaitForGroupAndCreateLogReader()
at WinSCP.Session.Open(SessionOtpions sessionOptions)
NOTE: Same code it works on my local machine with a VS2010...
I have build a simple Console app when i run on the hosted server it works fine as well.
