Blocking "Host ist not communicating for more than 15 ..."

This behavior does not make sense to me:

The Warning "Host ist not communicating for more than 15 seconds. Still waiting..."
Warning: Aborting this message will close connection!

If I press "Abort" the connection will be closed and reastablished.

Would like to have this automatically and none blocking, especially if I leave my PC allone uploading large files.

regards,
Thomas

This behavior prevents unattended uploads. It is really annoying.

As you can see in the tracker, this got resolved in 5.0.3 beta. You are using 4.3.7. Try upgrading. Let me know.

Yes it's working with this release but is somewhat unstable. I get messages like: "Invalid access to memory" and invalid drive access messages.

Can you send me an email, so I can send you back a debug version of WinSCP to track the problem? Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have sent the email. Thanks.

*done*

I did not see this error again since I use version 5.1.2.
This is the first version for me which really does support unattended up-/downloads.
Thank you.
Thomas
