As you can see, WinSCP returned exit code 1:

. 2019-02-20 00:07:21.687 Script: Exit code: 1

So it behaves correctly.
It must be your batch file that incorrectly processes the exit code.
But you didn't post your complete batch file, so I cannot tell why.

I've had to exclude some links but this is the base of the Winscp log that shows an error but did not send out an error email. I've turned off partial file transfers for now to help with this.

It should not behave this way.
Please post your full script as well as WinSCP session log file.

Thanks for the reply, I was able to get this going by just plugging in

\\Generic\Generic\sendmail.exe -t < \\Generic\Generic\\Fail.txt

into the Generated code of a file transfer in winscp after the error script. This worked a lot better and was easier to understand than what the tutorial was trying to explain. Now that it works and sends an email on a fail. Is there a way to make explicit error emails?
Example right now, if 1 file upload fails out of 20, it still considers it a successful upload. I would like even 1 failure of an uploaded file to send an email alert.

Right now I'm using.

set WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%

Can you post a screenshot of your "." is not a command line error?

Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Using example script:

\\Generic\Generic\winscp.com /ini=nul /script=F:\Generic\Generic\Generic\WinSCP.log
if %ERRORLEVEL% neq 0 goto error

echo Success
\\Generic\Generic\sendmail.exe -t < \\Generic\Generic\\Success.txt
:exit /b 0

:error
echo Error!
\\Generic\Generic\sendmail.exe -t < \\Generic\Generic\\Fail.txt
:exit /b 1

pause



I get the error "." is not a command line. I have WinSCP and sendmail.exe in the same folder.
If I remove the winscp.com path and just leave it as is, I get a "winscp.com" is not a recognized command windows error. What is this code supposed to look like exactly, the website does not explain this. I have the : in place on the exits so I can see what is causing an error for testing.

Is it possible to have a WinSCP batch file script send an email? If for instance a file fails to upload? I currently upload multiple files, but I want an alert if even 1 fails or an error occurs. Is this possible? Thanks in advance.
