ftp_connect

[Former Member]

Hello everyone i am testing a ftp_connect FM. In that i am providing the following information

User <-------ftp user name (say XYZ)

password <---FTp password

Host<---Ftp server name (say ftp-server)

rfcdest as SAPFTP.

But the function module is raising a error as:

XYZ has no access authorization for computer ftp-server.

What i am doing wrong? I have the autorization to access that ftp, it opens if i directly type in browser. Is anything wrong with user and password..

Hi Kesi,

How did you resolved this issue. I am getting the same error XYZ has no access authorization for computer ftp-server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
