winscp hangs

2013-01-18 19:33

On windows, I call winscp from a perl script using backticks `.

However, sometimes the winscp program just hangs, my perl script completes without error, but the file never gets sent to the target host.

Should I use "system /B" command to background the call or am I missing something here?

Please attach a full log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

To generate log file, use /log=path_to_log_file command-line argument. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.
