So the log file is not created at all? Or is it empty?
How do you check that "it runs with no errors"?

See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/troubleshooting#scripting

The only way I check is by entering each line of the script in a winscp command line and they actually are working. But I will check out your link for troubleshooting and thank you for it. I do have a log file, but it is always blank with nothing in it.

UPDATE: I do have this working now and the issue had to do with the -hostkey. I had -hostkey="-ssh-dss" and for some reason the -ssh was erring out. I changed it to just ssh-dss and it works.

Actually this is my second script for Winscp where another I created a month ago is working fine with a different process and server. With this one, I am just trying to put one simple file into an SSH remote server. When I run the script lines manually through a Winscp command window, it works fine. When I launch the batch file to run the Winscp script, it runs with no errors, but the file does not get "put" into the remote server folder. I have logging turned on, but nothing goes into the log.

Is there something else I need to check? Any help is welcome and I thank you for it.
