Syncrhonise local fails
Hello,
I'm using WinSCP 5.1.3 and this is failing. I was using 5.1.2 and it should have worked, but stopped about a month ago. I can't work out why as the remote directory has new files every 2 days.
Intention:
1) Login to the remote server
2) copy the database backups* to the local machine.
*the files are *.sql.gz files (gzipped SQL files) in dated directories (e.g. 2012-12-15/*.sql.gz)
I thought that the filemask was causing the problem, but I can't see that being a problem as removing it does *nothing* I get *no* error messages at all, and see the synchronise command taking stock of the local directories, but never downloading remote directories/files. I've checked that the files exist on the remote server.
Any thoughts?
