session.SynchronizeDirectories: e.touch is Nothing

Hello,

I'm kind of troubled concerning the SynchronizeDirectories method.

I've copied your entire code example (VB.NET) using a 'remote' sync (local ==> remote), and when running the piece of code
, on the FileTransferred event, I keep getting the symptom that "e.tocuch remains Nothing".

(while your comments in this piece of code is rather explicit on this one: (...) This should never happen with Session.SynchronizeDirectories (...))


Of course, with this situation, timestamps on the remote server remain the same (untouched) and pretty soon, syncing becomes a slow and lengthy proces (certainly with a lot of files + issues of system clock that is 2 hours later then on my remote machine etc..)


Any idea what might be causing this? I've included a logfile....

Thanks for any form of insight in this troublesome matter.

Grtz,

Arthur

Can you set Session.DebugLogPath and email me the debug log too? Also can you break the code before disposing the Session instance and email me also the XML log? You will find the path at the beginning of the session log:

From the log it looks like they are actually updated, but you have a timezone issue there:
