Trouble shooting SQL 2000 cannot open file ftp file

Hello,

I am receiving the following error message

Executed as user: NACCRRA\sqlservers. C:\Windows\system32> "c\program files\winscp\winscp.com" /script=FTPOAPToKTTransfer.ftpCannot open file FTPOAPToKTTransfer.ftp. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed

We have a MS SQL 2000 job that is calling to the batch. The batch then runs the ftp file. The job is failing at step one.

We have the following environment

1. WinSCP ver 4.2.3 build 494
2. MS SQL 2000
3. Windows Server 2003 r2 sp2
4. Using SFTP
5. Using scripting/automation
6. Connecting to GlobalScape's EFT server
7. The command in the batch is
8. The commands with in the ftp file are

Solution we tried
1. gave everyone full rights to the folder that contains the batch files
2. gave everyone full rights to the folder for WinSCP

What currently works is

Microsoft ftp client on the server. MS SQL 2000's job call to the batch and the batch runs the ftp commands using Microsoft's ftp client.

The client is requesting to use SFTP to submit data.

Thank you for any assistance,

It seems that you execute WinSCP with C:\Windows\system32 as startup directory. As you do not specify path to the FTPOAPToKTTransfer.ftp script file, WinSCP looks for it in that directory. Is it there? If not, make sure you specify full path or start WinSCP from directory where the script is actually located.
