Yes, but I only found "option reconnecttime 120". Or is there another timeout I could set longer?
martin

Did you try setting a longer timeout?
Inne

Thanks a lot for your answer. I've used rapidee.exe to change the startup parameters of the cmd and it worked with the following code, because I wanted the files and not the content of the file. 

winscp.exe /console /log="C:\temp\winscp.log"  /command "option reconnecttime 120" "open ftp://user:pw@xx.xx.xxx.xxx/" "get -delete ""/IN/*"" C:\temp\" "exit"


I still have some problem with the connection: Script blocks sometimes (with the ftp startup conversation).

I suspect the problem lays with the FTP-server which isn't in my control. So I've send them an email. Did you ever encounter something like this? That the start up conversation sometimes get stuck?

Re: Script ftp connection does not work

Use winscp.com instead of winscp.exe and show us its output.

Script ftp connection does not work

The following code does not work, escpecially the Winscp.exe-command (which I excluded once to test and then the files were locally copied from tempfolder right to the myfolder).

What does work:
if I use winscp (or filezila or ...) myself and connect to the ipadress with my user and pw it does work and I can copy the files manually or syncronise them. But the instant I use scripting, it doesn't work. I tried without winscp before, same issue... Has someone a clue what it might be?
Not even the logfile give anything: empty. Even if I couldn't connect it would say something right?
Thanks a lot! 

@echo 

set TMPPATH="C:\temp\cvstemp"

mkdir "%TMPPATH%"

winscp.exe /console /log="C:\myfolder\winscp.log" /command 

    "open ftp://user:pw@ipadress/" ^

    "get -delete ""IN/*"" ""%TMPPATH%""" ^

    "exit"

for /r "%TMPPATH%" %%f in ("*.*") do move "%%f" "C:\myfolder\"

rd /s /q "%TMPPATH%"
