Title: Creating file instead of folder
Post by Murder4All on Feb 11th, 2005 at 1:43pm
Hello,

I recently upgrades van 2.x to most recent 3.x version and since then a strange thing is happening.

When a new folder is created in the monitored folder a file with the same name containing what I presume to be the first file in this folder is created. This file has the name of the folder, so all subsequent file creates in the subfolder fails.
This happens in about 10% of all folder creations, apparantly random and only since my upgrade.

I'm fiddling with some options, and trying to figure if there's a pattern or a reason I can find.

If any suggestions, please let me know

Hello Kobe,

Which of the sample .bat files are you using? The WDAutoCopyFile.bat example??
Can you send me your .bat file so I can have a look, please rename it to have a TXT extension, otherwise it will most likely be blocked.

Forgot to state in my E-mail, it's based on WDAutoCopy from version 2.x. I just reused my bat files when I upgraded
