Our product uses java ftp libraries to connect to (s)ftp servers. Here is the conversation I see in our logs:

 ---> SYST
215 MVS z/OS 011300 is the operating system for Connect:
...
200 PORT command successful.
LIST
150 Opening data connection.
Validating the server certificate when connecting to 'ftp.abc.com'.
Successfully validated the SSL server certificate when connecting to 'ftp.abc.com'
226 List complete. Closing data connection. 1 batches listed.
No input files found on server.


However our customer is sure that they indeed have a file on the server and they can see it.

Any ideas why the server says "1 batches listed" and yet immediately says "No input files found."
Thank you.

No, I haven't seen those messages before.

Things to try:
  • Connect with an FTP client application such as FileZilla
  • Google the exact messages that the server is returning, such as "batches listed"
  • Find out what the server is and check server documentation
  • Ask the server administrator to check the server log to see if there's anything logged that gives a clue to why it's doing this.
