Transfer Files Using FTP

Former Member — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:09:07 GMT

Hi,

When I try to run the FTP_CONNECT FM in background,

the ftp server is not connected throwing an error message ''Attempt to set up connection to <ftpserver> failed''.

I am using the RFC destination SAPFTPA and still it is not working!

My program was successfully executing in fore ground with SAPFTP.

Please help.

Thanks and Regards,

Kumar

Hi,

Check is Password getting correctly scrambled.

Use FM HTTP_SCRAMBLE

CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_SCRAMBLE'
    EXPORTING
      SOURCE      = p_user_password  "--> Pass Password
      sourcelen   = l_slen          "--> Length of the Password
      key         = '26101957'
    IMPORTING
      destination = l_password.

Hi Kumar,

We are also having same problem while connectiing to FTP server through SAP R/3.

I am using

CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_SCRAMBLE'

EXPORTING

SOURCE = c_pwd

sourcelen = dstlen

key = key

IMPORTING

DESTINATION = c_pwd

CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_CONNECT'

EXPORTING

user = c_user

password = c_pwd

host = c_host

rfc_destination = c_dest

IMPORTING

handle = hdl

EXCEPTIONS

not_connected = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

WRITE:/ 'COULD NOT CONNECT TO', c_host.

ELSE.

But i am unable to connect can you please suggest any solution...
