Once I introduce -filemask into the script, my script stops working

2021-03-15 10:31

I am trying to download only the files from the out directory that were uploaded yesterday and today, this is going to be a repetitive task to be run on windows task schedular. The script runs fin without the filemask bit but I need only yesterday and today. I have read from forums here and have made some changes and tried different solutions but none of them seem to be working

get -filemask="*>=yesterday" /Out C:\Users\bamis\Documents\Prime\macToolandScripts\Workspace

I have also tried this:

get -filemask=">=yesterday" /Out C:\Users\bamis\Documents\Prime\macToolandScripts\Workspace

and this:

get -filemask="*>=yesterday" /Out C:\Users\bamis\Documents\Prime\macToolandScripts\Workspace

and this:

get -filemask="*>=yesterday"; /Out C:\Users\bamis\Documents\Prime\macToolandScripts\Workspace

Please what am I doing wrong...Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The yesterday is a relatively new feature. So make sure you use the latest version of WinSCP. If this does not help, please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

To generate the session log file, use /log=C:\path\to\winscp.log 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.
