Cannot login

Hi
I have a problem with WinSCP in script mode.
I want the script will login without password. I have the code,
Winscp.exe /console /command "option batch on" "open scp://username:@ip-adress:22 -privatekey=rsa.ppk" "exit"

I got the error messages --> Unable to use the key file rsa.ppk (unable to open file)

The DOS prompt is waiting for a typing the password.. The key (rsa.ppk) doesen't contain a password and I want a automatic login without password.

Please help me !!

As you can see in the error message, WinSCP was not able to open the rsa.ppk file. Are you sure it is located in the same directory, where WinSCP is started from? Try to use full path instead.

Hei .. The log files

In the script you seem to use SCP, while in GUI you use SFTP.

// sokoban :lol:

This command should do:
winscp.exe /console /command "option batch on" "open sftp://xxxxx:@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:22 -privatekey=W:\BBS\rsa.ppk" "put -nopreservetime -nopermissions Z:\Til_BBS \Inbound" "exit"

No it dosen't works.. It works with *****_BBS \Inbound"" exit
Add a quotation mark and you have to delete the quotation mark around the exit

Thanks for you help !! :)
