Error: HOST RAISING NOT_CONNECTED

[Former Member]

Hey All Gurus,

I have a question for all the FTP Experts! I am using FM: FTP_CONNECT and am getting the error - HOST RAISING NOT_CONNECTED. Any clues why this would be happening, has anyone encountered this in the past?

As always, greatly appreciate your help!

Thanks Nina.

MI_PWD_LEN TYPE I,

MI_HANDLE TYPE I.

START-OF-SELECTION.

*-- Your SAP-UNIX FTP password (case sensitive)

MC_PASSWORD = 'password'.

HI,

is ur ftp port 21 or something else.

please refere to this if its not port 21...

Please refer to note 633391

Say the ftp server is ftp.com and port is 22, then set the host parameter

'ftp.com 22'

I changed the IP address and now it says USER HOST RAISING NOT_CONNECTED. Any clues?

[Former Member]

Is the host and rfc correct.?

do one thing try to connect to that FTP from your desktop using IE and see if you could able to connect.

Thanks

Mahesh
