Wrong file time for some files

2022-04-01 09:58

Hi, I don't know why, but for some transferred file from local to remote, either manually and by sync script, the file time changes, and some other times the seconds are added, but most of the times not. The strange fact is that this happens only for some file, really few, and working with synchronization by date and size, this means that some file are always transferred.
I've added a screenshot, so you can see this, and as you can see, it happens only for few files (every time the same files).

Thanks

Please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP). Give us a name of one file for each behavior.

To generate the session log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. 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 can mark the attachment as private.

Thanks. Though I was asking for "one file for each behavior". You gave me loads of names, presumably for the "Wrong file time" behavior only.

Though actually I do not see same behavior for these. Randomly picking EW0240_2.jpg and TW1943_2.jpg, the first is not synchronized while the latter is.

Taking a look in more details at the synchronization of TW1943_2.jpg: Imo, WinSCP behaves correctly. To debug this further, I'd probably need a log for the consecutive synchronization. In which, if I understand the problem correctly, the file is synchronized again, despite being synchronized before already.

Hi and thanks.
I've repeated 2 times the sync with only the file TW1943_2.jpg in the mask, and it has been syncd both times. You can find the two logs attached, i've cleaned everyting in them but the rows related to TW1943_2.jpg.
I hope it can be useful.
