ITs not a problem per se. The Finder dosent support FTP upload/modification. You will need to use and FTP client for full functionality. Some recommends:
Fetch
CyberDuck
Transmit
You can also always use the command line client. in terminal use the the command
ftp open siteaddress
where site address is the IP or domain name of the ftp site.

Removing from an FTP server

Hey Guys,
Say you have an image or file you want to remove from an FTP server, what method would you use in the FTPClient? the deleteFile(String arg)?
Thanks,

If you are using Apache Commons net API the answer is yes.
Provided the login which you have used has respective permissions to do that.

Extracting .xls file from an FTP site

Hi there,
I'm trying to run a DI solution that is extracting a file from a FTP site. DI can see the file but it gives me an error saying that:
FTP could not transfer file <FTP site/myfile.xls> from host <IP Address>: <>. Please ensure that the FTP relative path for the SAP R/3 working directory is set correctly such that the data file is accessible to the FTP
Can someone please help with this.
Thank you.

Hi,
thats SP1 for DS XI 3.2
I think there is no delta from XI 3.2 to XO 3.2 SP1 what means you have to do a fresh install and upgrade repo.
But you better doublecheck before but i think there is no delta.

Extract .xls file from an FTP site

Hi everyone,
Can anyone assist with this, I'm trying to extract an .xls file from a FTP site. The system I'm currently working on has no SAP application installed, we are using Microsoft SQL server as the target database and there is an FTP site which contains the .xls/.csv files and Data services as a ETL tool. The error I'm getting is 'FTP could not transfer file </DI_TEST/DATA_TO_IMPORT_1.xls> from host <www.servername.com>: <T>. Please ensure that the FTP relative path for the SAP server working directory is set correctly such that the data file is accessible to the FTP program. Also, ensure that the target path, where the transferred file is written to, is correct.'
Do I need to have SAP installed to use this functionality?
Currently to make this work, I wrote a .CMD file to do the GET ftp code and I then call this with a DI script and it works perfectly. Isn't there a way I can do this independant of the .CMD?
I'm sorry for bring this up again, I know I had a similar thread before. The reason why I closed it is that I did it using .CMD, I would prefer if I can do it with DI without using .CMD.
Thank all for your help.
Kind regards,

Sender from multiple ftp sites

Is it possible to configure a sender file communication channel where the file is picked up from any of three ftp locations? For example, if the client has say 3 factory locations and they want to maintain local ftp site to drop their files but if we were to process the files from a common interface, would it be possible to either
1) Configure multiple ftp sites as the sender location in one communication channel, so that the file is picked up regardless of which ftp it is placed on?
OR
2) Have one sender agreement where multiple sender communication channels can be specified so that the interface is triggered whenever the file is placed in any of the ftp locations (and hence any communication channel receives the message)

hi yea it is possible to provide multiple location from where a file could be picked up.
go to ur Sender communication channel and select the check box "advance selection for source file" and enter multiple location for ur file
so u requrie on one sender agreement for it
please have a look at this link

Cannot download chud 3.5.2 from apples ftp site

Is anyone able to still download chud 3.5.2 from Apple's ftp site?
ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/ToolChest/Testing_-_Debugging/Performancetools/
If not, does anyone have a downloadable copy of chud 3.5.2?
Thanks

Hello maccheesy, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Works fine here also, but very slow, are you on iChat or anything?

I cannot update a file by downloading revised version from my ftp site.

I write Access database programs for a couple of non-profit groups. When I make a change, I upload the changed program to an ftp site, alert them to download again, and off they go with the new version. Been doing this for several years. Fast
forward to today: husband just bought new Win 8.1 computer. I installed the Access 2010 Runtime, then downloaded the database. It worked. I then made a couple of changes to the program on my development computer necessitated by the wide screen
display on the new computer, uploaded the changed program to the ftp site, proceeded to download the update to the win 8 computer and it won't update to the new version until and unless I reboot. What am I doing wrong? My users should not have
to close everything and reboot before updating the program--I will surely soon have several using Win 8.

I have updated the file in question on my development computer. I then saved it to a network drive. I then uploaded it to the ftp. Next, I went back to the Win 8.1 machine. I opened the ftp and copied the file. I then pasted
it to the desktop. I then opened the file and verified that it was not updated. I then accessed the network drive and copied the file, then pasted on the desktop. Voila! It was updated. Conclusion: Cannot copy and paste from ftp
(unless it had never been present) but can update from other source.
On the Win 8.1: Next, I reopened the ftp, copied the file. Returned to the desktop (which now contained the identical updated version copied from network drive). Pasted. Opened the file. Alas, it had reverted to the version
prior to copying from the network file. I next deleted the file, then downloaded from ftp again. The previous version reappeared! Conclusion: Anytime an update is attempted from ftp, the version reverts to something it finds in a cache somewhere.
I did try rebooting at this point, but the previous version was still there.
After a reboot of the Win 8.1 machine, I could copy and paste successfully from ftp to desktop.
You asked about the former system edition: Windows 7 on my development computer. I don't have an installation log, but I am not sure exactly to what you refer. Office 2010 Professional is the source software; MS Access 2010 Runtime is
the program used on the 8.1 computer. Note that this all works on users using Win 7 and the same Runtime.

Getting only latest packages from archlinux ftp site

I want to only download the latest package versions from the archlinux ftp site. So when doing a listing I get something like:
xfsprogs-2.6.25-1.pkg.tar.gz
xfsprogs-2.6.36-1.pkg.tar.gz
xfsprogs-2.6.36-2.pkg.tar.gz
xine-lib-1.0-1.pkg.tar.gz
xine-lib-1.0.1-1.pkg.tar.gz
xine-lib-1.1.0-1.pkg.tar.gz
xine-lib-1.1.0-3.pkg.tar.gz
xine-ui-0.99.3-2.pkg.tar.gz
xine-ui-0.99.4-1.pkg.tar.gz
I only want to dowload the single latest version of each above package. Any idea on how to do this?

This short perl-script should do what you want and store the packages in /var/cache/pacman/ so don't forget to clean the cache beforehand.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my @all = `pacman -Sl`;
#print @all;
my $packages = "";
foreach my $string (@all) {
$string =~ /d*s(S*)s/;
$packages = $packages."$1 ";
system "pacman -Sdw $packages";

Files not getting picked from the FTP site

Dear All,
We are having one File-XI-RFC scenario running in XI-PRD Server. Sometimes what happens is that files available in the FTP site are not getting picked by the File adapter. I have checked in the adapter monitoring and communication channel is active there. Also, there are no errors regarding this in SXMB_MONI. I have configured alerts also but for this case no alerts are getting trigerred. And also when I am reactivating that particular communication channel then that file is getting picked instantaneously.
Can anybody please guide me on what might be the real cause for this as this error is happening randomly.
regards,
N.Jain.

HI,
Have you used per File transfer parameter in FTP Communication channel.
It makes the FTP adapter inactive in ideal time.
So add the poll interval may be for every 30 mins or something like it. It will forcefully activate the FTP port after every 30 mins. You may have the poll interval for every 1 min. Only the files to be picked up are getting logged in in XI monitoring.
So there will be no garbage collection of unwanted messages in Monitoring.
Thanks
Swarup

Virus Message from a web site

Greetings,
This evening I went to the Huffington Post web site and got this error message,
"Warning!!! Your computer contains various signs of viruses and malware programs presence.
Your system requires immediate anti viruses check! Antivirus 360 will perform a quick and free scanning of your PC for viruses and malicious programs."
I copied and pasted the message then I clicked the cancel button. I restarted my computer. Should I be worried?

HI Susan,
Don't worry, it's a scan as QTKirk said. There are no known Mac virus. They are trying to sell you anti-virus software.
No worries!

Where is Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for Windows 7 and why was it removed from the support site?

When Rescue and Recovery 4.51 was released a few weeks ago, all references to the previous version were replaced. Unfortunately, the new release is not supported on the R series machines nor on the earlier T series machines, so for those machines, the only version of Rescue and Recovery for Windows 7 that is available is version 4.30.0027 which was released in September 2009.
This makes no sense.
Please re-instate the documentation and download links for Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for all machines which were supported on that release but are not on version 4.51.
ThinkPad R61 8932-CTO T8300 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP
ThinkPad R500 2714-CTO P8600 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP; Two ThinkPad R500's 2714-CTO T9600 2.80 Ghz 4GB RAM Win 7

ThinkCenter A63 5237-CTO 3GB Ram Win XP; A21m and a pair of 380XD's

Thank you for your response.
The R61 and the R500 that I own, that are currently running Windows XP are staying there until Microsoft stops supporting Windows XP, at which point I will decide what to do with them, so trying 4.51 on them is not currently an option.
As an IT professional, I tend to be the support guy for all the Lenovo computers in my family. My son also has an R500, which was purchased used, and it came with Windows 7. When I set it up for him, I installed Rescue and Recovery 4.5 over 4.3 before taking the original full system image backups. He would loose the capability to use those backups if I were to try to downgrade that machine to Rescue and recovery 4.3. My own R500 came with Rescue and Recovery 4.30.0025, (for which there is no documentation nor download links available, to my knowledge), and I have never upgraded it, because I am concerned that all my backups would become unreadable if I did. I don’t think it is worth the effort to make all the external bootable backups that upgrading the software would require. I would upgrade if I was assured that version 4.30.0027 could read the backups taken by version 4.30.0025.
There were 2 more versions of Rescue and Recovery. There was version 4.31.007 released on 2010/09/28 and version 4.31.011 released on 2011/03/04. The document ID’s for release 4.51 are the same as those for the 4.31 releases, so I should assume that Lenovo considers the 4.31 releases a major advance over the 4.30 release, and thus not a valid fallback option but why not?

Error in picking files from FTP Site

Dear All,
I m using one communication channel of type FILE to pick the files from a FTP Site. Yesterday, the communication channel stopped picking the files from the FTP site. I checked the adapter in the Adapter Monitoring and it was green and was showing success messages in SXMB_MONI. I then just reactivated the complete scenario and the communication channel started picking the files again.
Is there a way to find out the trace or log in the server for the adapter or communication channel? Or how can I find out what went wrong.
Warm Regards,
N.Jain

Hello Nishant,
That is a problem which happens frequently( atleast i faced the same ) .
The issue is realted to timeout in your FTP Adapter (Connection Issue). Just check out the mode of connection in your file adapter is it permanant or reconnect after a certain time.
What you can possibly do is contact the team which maintains the FTP server...
Regards,
Sumit

Cant open ftp site on ipad

Hello. I have to figure out a way to allow ipad users to open a specific ftp folder from our ftp site on their ipads. so far when i attempt to open the ftp url safari tells me i have no permission. if i try it at my computer it works properly and prompts me for a password. the only option i have found is to give these people access to the whole ftp site via one of the many ftp apps out there. the problem with that is they may end up deleting something they shouldnt or seeing something they are not supposed to have access to.
ftp://[email protected]/CEB%20Joint%20meeting%20October%2017 is the url

Try to reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.
