I have never found the ftp(1) program to be really useful in a batch environment. Usually a quick and dirty shell script just makes too many assumptions about what the other host is sending and unreliable operations result.
Instead of using the stock ftp(1) tool, look into the curl(1) tool for this. It can send to any system supporting the FTP protocol (or using several other protocols as well) and is much easier to use in scripting. Curl(1) is designed for use in scripts, unlike the original ftp(1) tool.

Shell Script- To FTP the latest file with the date stamp

I have a Solaris 10 based system, where it generate some application files (multiple) in XML format and the file name comprises of the current date.
File Format is as follows;
CX-FIL-20070624000000-2-8452536d-000133.xml
Where 20070624 repesents the curent date of the file
I want to FTP these files to another server (Solaris 10 based Sun Machine) by comparing the file name with the current date.
Please let me know how I can do this by using a shell script.

Assuming you want to ftp the files with today's datestamp, you could match the files you want like so:
CX-FIL-`/bin/date +"%Y%m%d"`*
Use that in your script to generate the file list to be transferred...

Ftp in unix shell script

hi.
I have the following requirement to be written as a shell script.
1. ftp to another server ( say x)
2. change the directory ( cd /data)
3. check if there exists a file with extention .csv. If it does,
3.1 get the file and copy it to a backup directory,
3.2 rename the file to test.csv
3.3 login to an oracle schema and execute a procedure.
3.4. Based on the output, echo success or error
3.5 If success delete the file
Can all this be done in one script. ?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanx

Hi ,
Hope the folllowing scipt listing will help you.
cd /u01/backup/

FTP command in shell script

Hello All,
I would like to transfer a file from one system to another system.
so i haven written shell script with ftp command as follows.
ftp -i 10.14.12.1<< END
cd C:\Temp
put $datafile
ascii
quit
But i am getting error.
Please let me know the sysntax followed by me is correct or thar remote system is down,
Many thanks,
Kumar.

The ftp(1) command is not well-suited for scripting. Instead us the curl(1) tool:
curl -T myfile ftp://ftp.some.where/down/in/this/dir/
for example.
$ man 1 curl
for more details.

Thanks for ur reply
Actually i did a mistake in the code i wrote the following piece of code below
ret_val=`ftp -n> $file.log <<E
#ret_val=`ftp -n << !
so after the tilde symbol it as again taking the '# ' as a special character so it was giving error, so i removed the second line now its working fine.

Help needed in shell script for FTPS

Hi,
Im trying to build a script to download files from a secure FTP site.
When I run the command ftps <host_address> in the unix prompt, it asks username and password, and then prompts the following question.
Do you want to trust this certificate? y(y):
From the prompt, I am able to type 'y' and then it is connecting to the FTP site without any issue.
When i run the shell script which contains the same command ftps <host_address>, it prompts the same question. And then it comes out of the program saying 'Connection aborted'.
Could anyone tell me how to avoid this prompt?
Thanks,
Vidhya

Ya. It worked for me when i typed the command ftps <host_address> in the command prompt.
When I type this command, it is asking for username,pwd and after that, it is asking 'Do you want to trust this certificate?'. For this i have typed 'y' (Yes) in the command prompt.
After i entered 'y', the connection got established properly.
I have included this command in a shell script, and ran this script.
When i execute the script, i asks 'Do you want to trust this certificate?'.
Since i will not be able to type 'y'(Yes) connection is getting aborted.
So, I want to know how to avoid this question ot how to enter 'y' while executing the script.
Thanks

Why does Linux kill my shell script after I do an ftp or lftp?

Hi,
I've written a series of shell scripts that will log into a client site using ftp or lftp, get a data file , and then log out using quit and then EOF.
The script excerpt is as follows.
echo $PROGRAM_NAME - get
lftp -u $USER,$PASSWORD $HOST <<EOF
ls
cd outbound
ls
quit
EOF
### validate FTP                                                             ###
echo $PROGRAM_NAME - validate
if [ $? != 0 ];
     then
          echo "FAILURE - $FILE_NAME_DAT has failed FTP get." | mail -s "FAILURE - $PROGRAM_NAME" [email protected]
     exit 1
fiSo from what I have, the output will show the first echo, the output from the lftp session, and then the scripts abruptly ends.
It never makes to the second echo or for that matter the rest of the script. It just ends.
The strange part is that I've compared it to scripts that are identical for what functions are being performed and yet the other scripts will continue on after the lftp.
I've even brought it into MS Word and TextPad to look for hidden characters and they don't show any difference between script files with the error and script files with out it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

OK. This is the copy of the similar script that does work.
I also added a set -vx to the other script.
As you can see it's very similar in what it does like the other script, however this script puts the
+ lftp -u datamart,vagmr6o sftp://ftp.lowtruck.com...right after the lftp portion and not at the end of the script like the other script did.
The script with out put is below.
### parameter $1 full PATH of the file to be staged                                                                                                    ###

FTP files from Unix box to Windows ( Shell script )--inplemention in Apps

Hi,
I have an requirement like need to send files generated at a particular path in the UNIX sever into Windows machine.
This should be a scheduler( can we create any shell script
) for this...
Note : files generated at Unix move into Windows box....
Please check and help on this... and let me know if any clarification required on my requirement.
Thanks,
Pavan K

This is relatively easy to do. You will need to write the shell script code and register it as a concurrent program of type "Host". Pl see the Application Developer Guide (for 11i and R12) at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html for details on how to register a shell script "Host" custom program.
ML Docs 266268.1, 147455.1, 1013907.6 and 156636.1 have some more info too.

Process Flow - Executing a shell Script

I have a simple shell script being called at the start of a process flow, up until a few days ago this worked fine across DEV, TEST and PROD.
It's now stopped working in PROD.
It executes through the command line fine as an os user and when you inspect:
select * from all_rt_audit_executions where execution_name like '%SCRIPT_ONLY%' order by updated_on desc;
The return_result is OK, but the script has not executed (it creates a simple file and I have added another one at the end of the script 'id >> whoami.txt')
I've no idea what the sysadmin has been up to so can't comment on configuration changes on the box.
Any ideas?
Edited by: RodCouncil on Mar 16, 2009 4:51 PM

First off, if the admin has upgraded or re-installed the repository, it might have reset back to the default security properties
The properties file is found in $OWB_HOME/owb/bin/admin/Runtime.properties and change the following parameters to NATIVE_JAVA :
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.FTP.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.Shell.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.SQLPlus.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
Make sure that there are no trailing spaces on the line after NATIVE_JAVA.
Also, if they have upgraded software could they have changed the detault UNIX profie so that you are no longer finding executables? Or changed around the file structure so that your script is in a different absolute location so that OWB doesn't find it anymore? Or changed up directory permissions so that the Oracle user can't see the script anymore?
Just a few thoughts on things to check for....
I'd ask your sysadmin to check the OWB security profile, and then to try running the script from the Oracle Unix account and let you know the results (assuming that you do not have access to the Oracle user).

Shell script for DB

Hi,
I have written shell script for below scenarios, can you please guide me to write this as correct way, requirment is,
1. i need to connect the database which is on unix server , but before connecting the DB some of the files needs to be removed from \tmp directory.
2. once removed the script need to connect the database and call the sql file which is in \tmp directory.
3. the output files will be stored in \tmp directory start with DB name.
4. finally csv files needs to be transferred to local windows with help of FTP. please find below the script
#!/bin/sh
rm -f /tmp/dbmon/DB1*
CONNSTRING=username/PASSWORD@service
sqlplus -s $CONNSTRING @/tmp/STATS.sql << EOF
EXIT;
EOF
HOST='xxxxx'
USER='xxxxx'
PASSWD='xxxxxx'
FILE='E:\STATS\DB1.*'

prompt
mput $FILE

EXIT;
EOF
Thanks
Edited by: ASP on Nov 18, 2011 4:45 PM

Hi ASP
It's always a good idea to write entries to timestamped log file without which you will never know where the script went wrong or failed.
This is not tested but just a small example
#!/bin/sh
export LOG_DIR=/tmp/log
export LOGFILE=$LOG_DIR/`basename $0`_${TIMESTAMP}.log
if [ ! -d $LOG_DIR ]
then
mkdir $LOG_DIR
fi
echo "Removing the temporary files from /tmp/dbmon at `date +%Y%m%d_%H:%M:%S`" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
rm -f /tmp/dbmon/DB1*
CONNSTRING=username/PASSWORD@service
echo "Run SQLPlus file" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
sqlplus -s $CONNSTRING @/tmp/STATS.sql << EOF
EXIT;
EOF
echo "Now FTP the files to windows box " | tee -a $LOG_FILE
HOST='xxxxx'
USER='xxxxx'
PASSWD='xxxxxx'
cd /tmp/dbmon
ftp -vn $HOST <<EOF
quote USER $USER
quote PASS $PASSWD
ascii
cd E:\STATS

ABAP program to execute shell script !

Hi Friends,
I have created some shell scripts and need to be executed through ABAP prog in order to automate some process. can any one tell me how to execute these scripts through ABAP program? i know that we have to setup those scripts through SM69 but i dont have clear idea about this.can some one tell me step by step how to do this. ur help will be awarded in terms of points.
Thanks

Define the scripts as commands in SM69. Test them in SM69/SM49 to see if they work.
Next, go to SE37, run FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE, and specify your command there. Does it work?
If yes, you can just code a 'CALL FUNCTION' to this FM in your ABAP program, and you are ready to invoke your script from your ABAP.
For a list of functions that work with commands (defined in SM69), do a drop-down on SXPG_COMMAND* in SE37.
A sample code may look like this
concatenate zsys_id z_infile z_extfile into parm
    separated by space.
*C_FTP_COMMAND is a script defined in SM49
    CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'

SAP XI: How To Write Shell Script And use it in File Adapter On XI Server

Hi,
I want to split file at sender side in XI using Shell Script and then after i want to do
Mapping.
Can anyone tell me what exactly it means "write a script in UNIX shell on XI SERVER"?
Regards,
Akshay.

Hi,
You can execute a Unix script running in the XI server from the File communication channel. Ie. if you want to do something which was not part of XI adapter configuation , then you can make use of external unix script and you can execute those from the XI.
For this, write a unix script and place in the XI OS level provided that path is accessible from PI Channel.
E.g
So u can use this in either Sender Channel to modify the data before it reaches into the Integration Server or in Receiver channel it is generally used to transfer the files into different location via Secure FTP
