Unable to synchronize remote folder with constantly changing files

Hello,

I'm trying to mirror the contents of a remote SFTP folder to a local folder (I need a local copy of the remote folder). The contents of the files in the remote folder are constantly changing (although the number of files and filenames stay the same).

WinSCP seems to be generating errors when it realizes the files in the remote folder have changed while it is synchronizing.

Is it possible to synchronize a remote folder that has files that are constantly changing?

Re: Unable to synchronize remote folder with constantly changing files

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

To generate the session log file, use /log=path_to_log_file command-line argument. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you can mark the attachment as private.
