Ftp connection error

[#1]

Hello everybody,

I have a file to rfc scenario where i pick up files from a ftp server.

i also have a idoc to file and rfc to file scenario working with the same ftp.

so i have 3 CC working with the same ftp server, one picking up files and two puting files.

the ftp server has a firewall that locks you out if it detects a auspices behavior for 10 minuets,

so usualy i stop the CC for 10 minutes and than it works fine.

this are the errors i get:

"Error occurred while connecting to the FTP server "92.67.67.141:21": java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect"

and than i get an error:

"An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '92.67.67.141:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 140,10,228)'. For details, contact your FTP server vendor"

but once or twice a day the CC stops working completely with the same errors.

i think that maybe the CC that picks up the files and the 2 CC puting files are working at the same time and creating the auspices behavior.

can anybody give input on what can i check or if someone encountered the same problem ?

TX

HI,

As mentioned in your query the problem seems to be with the restricted authorization and the firewall across FTP server.

Please confirm with your FTP contact person, as XI is using the same login details and access the FTP simultaneously. This may be consider as a auspices behavior for that ID.

You need to provide the proper authoriztions and roles to allow multiple login on FTP.

Thanks
