FTP script

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a way to use FTP script from a
coldfusion or html page? I need to run a QUOTE command. I am using
version - Coldfusion MX7.
Thanks, Tim

Powershell- FTP Script to copy files only after a certain time

Hey guys,
We are currently running an FTP script that decrypts pgp and copies/moves several files to different archived and production locations. These files come in constantly throughout the day and we need to ensure a certain 8 files get moved to 4 different locations
but NOT before a certain time.
Ex: File1 and File2 are received EARLY along with 50 other files and decrypted at 9pm EST on 9/4. File1 and file2 need to WAIT to be moved until after 12:05am EST on 9/5 or it is slapped with an incorrect $date/time and not processed correctly but
every other file needs to be moved (which is currently all configured).
Right now, both file1 and file2 are being moved as the script runs (every 10 minutes) so when the files come in early from the vendor- they get the incorrect date/time stamp.
I'm fairly new to powershell so I'm not quite sure how to set this up to only move the file if it is between a certain time- say 12am-1am and no other time.

I was able to resolve this myself by doing the following:
$hourdate = get-time –uformat “%H”
#Copy-Item as long as time is in the 12:00am or 1am hour
if(($hourDate -eq "0")-or ($hourdate -eq "1"))
copy-item objects
Thanks guys

CSS ftp script

Hello,
I use a CSS to load-balance ftp server. To validate the availability of my ftp servers, I would like to write a script that logs on each ftp server and then tries to get a copy of a small file on the server (the file are not stored locally on the ftp server, so I need this to validate that the server is able to retrieve the file from my storage).
Is it technically possible or not using scripts ? (the ftp script provided by Cisco only logs on the server)
If yes, has anyone already done this ? How can I do this ?
Thanks,
Gaetan

Gaetan,
you could take the existing scripts and add more function to RETR a specific file.
However, downloading the file itself would be difficult and useless.
I would suggest to just send the RETR command and check the server response.

Hot Folder for FTP Script

I'm trying to make a folder on my Mac that is a "Hot Folder." I want this folder to have an action/script that as soon as it sees a new file added it will open Fetch and upload via mirror to an FTP folder.
I was able to make the Fetch portion of the script without issue, but making the folder "Hot" is a bit more difficult for me. I tried to use some script from the sample script "add - new item alert" but have been unsuccessful. I'm hoping some of you Applescript pros can review this and tell me how to correct. Or perhaps you know of a better way to make this work with automator.
SCRIPT:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
try
tell application "Finder"
--get the name of the folder
set the folder_name to the name of this_folder
end tell
-- find out how many new items have been placed in the folder
set the item_count to the number of items in the added_items
--create the alert string
if the item_count is greater than 1 then
tell application "Fetch"
activate
make new transfer window at beginning with properties {hostname:"ftp.hostname.here", username:"myusername", password:"mypassword", initial folder:"/pub/pao/images/"}
mirror alias "Macintosh HD:Users:Bill:Desktop:test:" to url "ftp://myusername:@ftp.hostname.here/pub/pao/images/" format Automatic without delete strays

Well, then. I thought wrongly, I haven't used those in a very long time and thought they were saved.

"Hot Folder to FTP" script review please

Thank you all!

Well, the most obvious problem is:
if the item_count is greater than 1 then
If you drop a single file into the folder, nothing will happen. That's because item_count will be 1, not greater than 1.
If you don't care about how many files were dropped (because Transmit's mirror function will just synchronize the differences, then omit this line altogether - the script won't fire unless at least one file was added.

Error in execting ftp script

Please find the below script:
#!/bin/ksh
host='gskprod.xyz.com'
USER='gsk'
PASSWORD='ahdpw1'
remote_dir='gsk_ds'
ftp -n "${host}"
user $USER $PASSWORD
binary
cd $remote_dir
mget *.txt
mdelete *.txt
bye
It does not recognizes userid and password. It executes only upto ftp -m "${host}" line. Then i shows the ftp prompt. It is not executing the following line.
I have to run all the above statements as a single script in FTP. Please let me know what i need change to execute as a single script.
TIA.
Bye.

It does not recognizes userid and password. It
executes only upto ftp -m "${host}" line. Then i
shows the ftp prompt. It is not executing the
following line. With your script, it waits for keyboard input. That's why
it hangs with "user" line.
There is a useful command "quote" for FTP. So chnage
your script to use "quote" command.
Test with script below.
==========
#!/bin/sh
host='gskprod.xyz.com'
USER='gsk'
PASSWORD='ahdpw1'
remote_dir='gsk_ds'
ftp -n "${host}" <<SCRIPT

Executing an FTP script in beehiveonline

Hi All,
Are you aware if we can run a script(possibly unix script) which can ftp some files from a server (credentials known). This script needs to be run from beehive and download the files to a directory on the beehive itself.
Regards
Eldho

Eldho,
You can't run a script from Beehive itself it does not have a shell or an ftp client. It can receive and provide files via FTPS but the copy from another location to a workspace on the system would have to be handled externally.
If you have a server that can copy from one serevr and then up into BeehoveOnline that would work

Cfexecute, batch file, and a ftp script

I have a batch file which works fine when entered in at the
command prompt;
C:/temp/mybat.bat
but when I use cfexecute it fails.
Now this may be more of a case of what I am calling than CF
itself.
here is the output:
C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\bin>"C:\Program
Files\Ipswitch\WS_FTP Professional\ftpscrpt" -f
C:\temp\poolsite.scp Processing Line 1 [CONNECT pacmed -p] Finding
Host poolsite... Address lookup of "poolsite" failed. It may be
misspelled, or your computer may not be connected to the network or
Internet. Also check that your DNS and local name servers are
properly configured and responding. Failure in command [CONNECT
poolsite-p] Processing Line 2 [ONSUCCESS SHELL C:/temp/remove.bat]
Set [ONSUCCESS] action to [SHELL C:/temp/remove.bat] Processing
Line 3 [MPUT c:/temp/apptTxfr/*.*] Not Connected Failure in command
[MPUT c:/temp/apptTxfr/*.*] C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\bin>ECHO OFF
the very odd thing, is again, when I call this from a command
line, it works fine.
are there any wrappers or special ways I need to encapsulate
this when using cfexecute?

Thank you for the suggestions. The odd thing though, is it
looks like it calling the batch file just fine. It's just that for
whatever reason, the ftp client isn't getting fed the paramters
correctly. Ie
Processing Line 1 [CONNECT poolsite-p] Finding Host
poolsite...
passing -p tells the ftp client to use a prefdefined site
profile (poolsite), instead of using the hostname poolsite.
Basically it is if for whatever reason the ftp program is not
reading it''s scp file correctly when invoked from CF.
I'll check out the permissions and report back.
thanks for the suggestion.

Sqr to run an ftp script

Hello all,
I an running an SQR under PeopleSoft
PIA (Web) that is using call system to ftp a file from NT to the FTP site.
The code works fine if I run it through SQRW, but when running it through a
PeopleSoft page, nothing happens. I don't believe I am getting a valid status
code either, as it is always 0, though from what I read in the SQR manuals,
for NT, anything less than 32 is an error.
any help would be appreciated

Jason,
I would pipe the output of the FTP command to a log file. That way you at least have something to review in the case of problems. We use SQR to perform all of our file transfers to a wide variety of servers. This method has proven quite reliable for us.
In addition, we wrote some code to spin through the log file and look for precise reasons for failure (invalid password, simply not connected, etc.).

OS Command batch script issue (FTP)

All,
I am running into a problem (i think it's simple) which I just can't seem to figure out. I have a FTP command which is in a batch script and I can run it manually (Its run in an old enviroment with Informatica) and the ftp script works just fine. When I use the OS Command to launch the bat file, it accesses the bat file but in the ftp log all I see it doing is copying the local directory into the first line of the log and then just copying the rest of the ftp script. It does nothing else!!
Does anyone have any ideas? I have copied the script and forced it into one bat file, tried running it from a local directory, running it from the server, combining everything into a single source for lcd and script, I am running out of ideas!!
- Another point is that I have to use this process as I am moving files from a server to a mainframe environment and need the ascii translate function in FTP.
Thanks,
Abhi

Update:
After some searching (and soul searching;) ) I was able to find a way to call the FTP file through an shell batch. So for instance I have a shell script that calls the FTP script. This seems to work but now the log does not create correctly (the ftp script is creating the log) it seems to copy the script from the ftp file and paste it in the log file.

How to send a file from FTP to external server

My requirement is to send a file from FTP to D3(External) server.
Now I am able to store the file in Appln server.
I want to send the file created by the program thru FTP to D3 server.
I know the username,Password,HostID,RFC destination details.
How to send the file from FTP to D3.
If u have any program,Plz send it...
I dont want the function modules name...I want the example code ....
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sumi,
You could do it so that you create a .bat or .cmd script to your server which does your ftp transfer.
To do this you must use sm69 to create a external operating system command which you can call from FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE. To SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE you the file you need to transfer as a parameter.
What happens is that your abap program passes the file to windows batch script (.bat .cmd) which will then do the transfer for you.
Here's a sample of ftp-script for windows:
echo open IP_ADDRESS_TO_YOUR_SERVER > c:zftp_transfer.ftp
echo USERNAME>> c:zftp_transfer.ftp
echo PASSWORD>> c:zftp_transfer.ftp
echo put YOUR_FILE>> c:zftp_transfer.ftp
echo quit>> c:zftp_transfer.ftp
ftp -s:c:zftp_transfer.ftp
also take a look here for more details:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=96269
Ok, this might be a bit trivial but if your server is unix/aix etc.. Instead of using batch script you must do a shell script.

Schedule job in background and ftp the data to non-sap system

Hello All,
I have a requirement where in i have to write a program(with selection screen) to download 2 files into application server(frequency: end of each day i.e daily at 23:59), and then in turn i need to put those two files into FTP server using FTP script.
i guess my flow of the code should be
1. write the program with selection screen and
2. get the data from corresponding tables and put it into internal tables.
3. then i have download the data into application server
my question is : how i will schedule the job in background to download the data into application server daily? using job_open, job_submit, job_close?
4. then how i need to move the files from application server to FTP server using FTP SCRIPT?
Also my doubt is once i execute the program ONLY, the background job is triigred (because i wrote job_open, job_submit and job_close inside my program). then how will i input the data into screen daily and download the data into application server in background automatically???? i am confused ...
Please help me to solve the above issues
thanks

So the path name and the file name are always the same? In that case you could simply create a SM49 entry with hard coded file & path name.
An easy example for the COPY command under WINDOWS OS:
Create a command in SM49 called ZCOPY with following data:
Operating System = Windows NT
OS command: cmd
Parameters for os command: /C copy "C:\tmp\my_file.txt" "z:\tmp\my_file_copy.txt"
Additional parameters allowed: (leave blank)
In this case you would call SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE by filling this 2 parameters:
 commandname = 'ZCOPY'
 operatingsystem = 'Windows NT'
In the case that the file name and the path are not fixed you would set the following in the SM49 definition:
Additional parameters allowed: X
In this case you would call SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE by filling this 3 parameters:
 commandname = 'ZCOPY'
 operatingsystem = 'Windows NT'
 additional_parameters = params "<== fill in the path and file name during run time into this variable

File adapter causes FTP process stop result 0 byte file.

Has anyone ever heard that FTP adapter can cause FTP process to stop and end up with 0 byte file transferred?
We use the normal ftp script to ftp file from external file server place file in XI inbound folder so that file adapter can pick them up from that folder.
We have encounter a few 0 byte FTPed file in our system. One suspecting is the network between XI server and file server might get some interruption. With out just blaming on the network. We would like to know if there is any possibility that it is also causes by our file adapter? Says, it try to read the file that is not yet complete transferring make FTP give up transferring??
We would like to know if FTP process is transferring the file over and file adapter try to read, what will happen? Will it read file with incomplete content and ftp still go on? Or will it stop reading and return back error as the file could not be open? Or it will force FTP process to let go the file??
Best rgds,
Thida

Hi,
>We would like to know if there is any possibility that it is also causes by our file adapter? Says, it try to read the file that is not yet complete transferring make FTP give up transferring??
have not seen the file adapter causing any such problems. So, it looks like a network issue.
>We would like to know if FTP process is transferring the file over and file adapter try to read, what will happen? Will it read file with incomplete content and ftp still go on? Or will it stop reading and return back error as the file could not be open? Or it will force FTP process to let go the file??
Am not exactly sure, but when a file is being created and the file adapter tries to read such a file, the file would be READ and WRITE Locked and so File adapter should not be able to read such a file until the creation of the file is complete.
Also, take a look at the note : 821267 , question 31 for how file adapter processes empty file.

Unable to run FTP scipt

Hi All,
I want to FTP files from windows network shared drive(Windows NT) to remote SAP system(UNIX system) via ABAP program. I wrote a FTP Scipt files in a ABAP program and executing them. Our SAP application server is running on Windows NT and central instance is running on UNIX server.
When i run the program on application server(WINDOWS NT), FTP script file (for opening connection etc) is successfully executing through program. Where as when i run this program on central instance(UNIX), am unable to connect to remote system ( 'open' command).
Can u please suggest me how to handle this...

Configure your FTP server to send it's public IP address in the PASV response and define a static PASV port range. You must then open the PASV range inbound in addition to port 990 (assuming you're using FTPS on the default port) for the clients who need to connection. If you're running FTPS on port 21, you'll need to make sure that FTP inspection is disabled.
