It should probably be:

"get /ElecMediaOUT/*.zip -filemask>=2H H:\FTP-Blackwell\" ^

Though your log file does not actually match the script, so it's hard to help you.

Hello,

I'm trying to use below WinSCP script in a MSDOS batch file to automatically download the ZIP files from FTP server. I need to automatically download files every 2 hours from the FTP server.




I get error as below

. 2017-07-20 12:16:16.578 Retrieving file information successful
< 2017-07-20 12:16:16.578 Script: Can't get attributes of file '/ElecMediaOUT/'.

=============================

Pls let me know the correct syntax to be used for "get" with "filemask" script in a batch file.

I have attached log file for your quick ref

Thanks

I know its really old post , but I had similar requirement, and what worked for me is : get /out/abc.z*>16h %LOCAL_PATH% where abc.zip was my exact file name in out folder. It got me only abc.zip.

my command currently reads "get //ftp05155/FTP*.* <1d"

There should be NO space between *.* and the time constraint + It should be >, not <.
Are you sure the path should start with two slashes?

Btw, it would be nice, if you accept the answer you got on stackoverflow.com.

Hi All... Please please can somebody help me - I'm struggling my ╤╚♦ off :-)
I have files - 6 of them sitting on a remote site, every day a new is placed, I need to download only the newest one, the file name changes every day to I'm aiming at using the "latest date" - needless to say my scripting knowledge is void - I've tied using the >1d - WinSCP does all sorts of weird things and gives me a file called %3C1d - what the hell is that??

my command currently reads "get //ftp05155/FTP*.* <1d"

Please can someby please assist with the correct syntax that would allow me to automate the download of the latest file between 6 others from the SFTP please - connectivity is working, just the download seems to be problematic....

thanks a Huge load for your efforts, much appreciated!
Andre

Your duplicate question on stackoverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/q/22388746/850848

You cannot do this on command-line only. If it was possible, the solution in WinSCP documentation would show it instead of the use of wrapper script.

The closest you can get with command-line only is using file mask with time constraint. For example, if you know that one file per day is added only, you can use *>1D mask to select files (one file actually) created within the last 24 hours.

How do i achieve this using winscp command line automation commands?
