Attempts to open an excluded file - causes abort in script
So, I'm trying to use a script with WinSCP.com, to back up my files to my server. The script looks something like this
Note that exclude "*.ncb". The problem is that WinSCP tries to open this file, even though it's not going to copy it. It fails to access the file when it's in use (it's in use by MSVC). The output looks like this
Of course Abort means all the other files are not transferred (things work fine when I don't have MSVC open - all files are transferred).
So, I think this is a kind-of bug.
But, I will now go and investigate if there's a work-round, but changing the option confirm to use skip. Or something.
option batch on option confirm off option exclude "*.ncb" open tim@server put K:\Development\projects.* /backup/ftp/Test/* close exit
