FTPException: Command not implemented on UNIX (Tru 64)

Question

Hi,

I am currently evaluating ftpj for a ftps solution.
However there is a strange thing, on my dev machine (a windows xp) i could connect and change directory without any problem.

However, the same code on a UNIX Tru64 machine throws an exception:
com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPException: Command not implemented

Any idea what went wrong?

Thx.

Answer 1

The log file (see the manual) will tell you more, but it looks like that server doesn't support FTPS, only FTP.

Answer 2

like i said before, the server support ftps, i could connect from my pc (windows xp) to ftpssl server and change directory.

ftpj@windows xp ---> ftpssl = ok

now, since it is a java code, i copy all the class + the library to a tru64 unix machine and run it with the same jvm 1.3
however ftpssl server rejects the request from unix.

ftpj@tru64 unix --> ftpssl = rejected

i think there is a bug in ftp.auth method, because the way of unix threating CR LF is different with windows

this is the method i use

ftp.auth(SSLFTPClient.AUTH_SSL);

or 

ftp.auth("SSL");

Answer 3

I think the best way to solve this is for us to view the logs of identical tests from the Windows machine and the UNIX machine. So if possible, please run your test app on the UNIX machine with the debugging level set to ALL, then run the same application on the Windows machine, then e-mail both logs to us at support@enterprisedt.com.
