Core FTP - upload via SFTP site and command line script

[alidayvn]

I am uploading files from Core FTP LE 2.2 to a server via SFTP using putty compatibility. Running the GUI transfer manually works fine, but when run via a script using the site, I get an error message: /test/ already contains a file named " (no file name, just the one quote). Overwrite/resume/rename/skip etc. There is no file extant in the test directory, hidden/system or otherwise. No matter which option I choose, zero files transfer. There are 5 test files in the local directory. they are .txt and .pdf. When I set the script for just those extentions, I have the same issue. I can script downloads from the same folder with no issues.

Script is currently: "C:\Program Files\CoreFTP\coreftp.exe" -site <sitename> -u *.* -log testlog.txt

I have tried switches -RA, -OS, and -O with no change in results. I have switched off and on all reasonable options in the advance tab. I have tried using the root directory instead of test, and get the same result. Logs below. I will also be contacting Cerberus support, but have a feeling this is a Core FTP client configuration issue. Does anyone have any hints? TIA.

it sounds like the file is locked remotely (is open by another process) and can't be overwritten. Or you have another process uploading already.
