Task in scheduler doesn't work properly

2018-08-28 08:27

Hello,
my task in Windows Task scheduler (Windows Version 1803) doesn't cannot connect to the server in the first try but works fine afterwards.
In both cases the task is executed by a service account and none of the settings are changed. In the first try I get the error
" Connection has been unexpectedly closed. Server sent command exit status 0. Authentication log (see session log for details): Using username "USERNAME". Further authentication required
Authentication failed."
I already created two log files (one for the fail, one for the working run) and attached them (marked as private). Unfortunately I don't have access to the server.

I'm using this code in powershell:

# Setup session options
                $sessionOptions = New-Object WinSCP.SessionOptions -Property @{
                    Protocol = [WinSCP.Protocol]::Sftp
                    HostName = $customer.FTPSettings.server;
                    Portnumber = $customer.FTPSettings.portnumber;
                    UserName = $customer.FTPSettings.user;
                    SecurePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString $customer.FTPSettings.password -Key $key;
                    SshHostKeyFingerprint = $customer.FTPSettings.SSHKey;}
 
                $session = New-Object WinSCP.Session

                try
                {


                # Connect
                $session.Open($sessionOptions)

                $transferOptions = New-Object WinSCP.TransferOptions
                $transferOptions.TransferMode = [WinSCP.TransferMode]::Automatic;
                $transferOptions.PreserveTimestamp = $false;
        
                $sychronisationResult = $session.GetFiles(
                    $downloadpath,
                    $repositorydirProgress,
                    $false,
                    $transferOptions
                );

Thanks for your help.[/code]
