Odd issue - (EScpSkipFile) Error transferring file. Copying files to remote side failed.

2016-12-08 11:05

Hi

I have searched for similar issues and already added one improvement (timestamp preservation turned off), however I couldn't find any helpful solution.

The issue is very odd. When the transfer is run from within automated job under service account - it fails. The very same code run in console app under admin account - success. There's no firewall on the box, so this is not this kind of issue.

Attached are 2 logs: unsuccessful transfer and successful transfer.
The only difference is at the very end - one ends with (EScpSkipFile) Error transferring file, the other with successful transfer information.

Can anyone please help?

Description: failed transfer log

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the suggestion. After the upgrade to version WinSCP Version 5.9.3 (Build 7136) I am able to upload files.

However, when I try to download files I am getting the error

> 2016-12-09 11:22:41.373 Script: stat -- "test.stat"
. 2016-12-09 11:22:41.373 Listing file "test.stat".

< 2016-12-09 11:22:41.482 File /mk/test.stat not found

The weird thing is that first we retrieve list of files in the remote directory and it's successful, but then the download fails with the above error.
This is the log of directory listing

There's no "Error transferring file" in this log. Please post complete logs as in the first question, just using the latest version of WinSCP. Thanks.
