Hi Everybody,

When downloading the file into shared folder using FTP server in background mode,

I am getting the error "FTP subcommand: Server reports error" in FM FTP_R3_TO_SERVER.

Please guide me to resolve this error.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello,

I do not know the exact reason for that but you can find out by checking these points in your program.

First of all, are you setting the 'handle' import parameter with the same value that is exported from the FM 'FTP_CONNECT' ?

If so, is the folder (the path that you want to put that file in) really exist on the FTP server? Can you look it up on using FileZilla or any other FTP client program that you are using?

And also you should set character_mode parameter as 'X' in most cases. Have you done that?

I hope one of these questions will help you.

Regards,

Arman.

Hi Arman,

Thanks for your valuable reply.

In FM "FTP_R3_TO_SERVER" fot parameter Path, whether we need to pass the path of Shared folder or path in FTP server?

If Path in FTP server, then please let me know how to write the file from FTP server into shared folder.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Thangamani,

Does it happen to you to be downloading files to local station? If yes, it's not possible to do this in background mode but only by downloading to application server.
