SITE & ChangeWorkingDirectory Errors

Question

Hi,

I downloaded the latest version and trying to implement it now.. This is the way I am doing:

ftpConnection1.ServerAddress = "XXXXXXXX";
ftpConnection1.UserName = "XXXXX";
ftpConnection1.Password = "XXXX";
ftpConnection1.Connect();
ftpConnection1.Site = "lrecl=66 blksize=27984 recfm=fb";
ftpConnection1.ChangeWorkingDirectory("C:\\bn");
ftpConnection1.UploadFile(@"C:\EIS_FTP\OUTBOX\amfm.catslocn.cen",@"TUE0FZZ7");
ftpConnection1.Close();

I am getting this run time error for ChangeWorkingDirectory:

An unhandled exception of type 'EnterpriseDT.Net.Ftp.FTPException' occurred in edtftpnet.dll Additional information: A qualifier in "C:\bn" contains an invalid character

Also getting this compilation error for Site:

Cannot implicitly convert type

Answer 1

ChangeWorkingDirectory is a directory on the server so C:\\bin doesn't exist.

As for site, I think you are looking for InvokeSiteCommand.

Answer 2

Thanks for quick response...It's working fine.

Answer 3

One more help Bruce. I want to set Connection Type(Active/PASV) from my coding. I can't use ftpConnection1.ConnectMode as this is not meant for that and I am not able to get any more option also... Please help to write this also.

Many Thanks,
Lita

Answer 4

If I give it like this:

ftpConnection1.ConnectMode ="PASV";
I am getting the following error:

Cannot implicitly convert type

Answer 5

Try this:

ftpConnection1.ConnectMode = FTPConnectMode.PASV

Answer 7

Also all the files are using same type of connection, same server, same user id ...everything same. And files are all data files and I am using ASCII mode to FTP. But, it's giving this error only for one file which I am able to FTP successfully from my command prompt, but not through my application.
Note: I am sending these files to a mainframe m/c.

Quick reply will be highly appreciated.........there is a long vacation from today and if I get the answer now then I can leave ontime else I will be here all alone working. :)

Many Thanks.........

Lita

Answer 8

You'll need to post a small section of the log file (no more than 10 lines) which shows the problem.

Answer 9

Sorry Bruce, but I don't have any idea about the log file you are talking about. Can you please guide me to get this?

Answer 10

see the Dev Guide or try

using EnterpriseDT.Util.Debug;

Logger.CurrentLevel = Level.DEBUG;
Logger.AddAppender(new FileAppender("myfile"));
