FTP Error

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have configured the FTP in my local desktop and I am trying to pull a file from there. I have given all the permissions to that folder and also installed the IIS component of windows.

The communication channel throws the below error Please help.

An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '20.198.94.177:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 c:\inetpub\ftproot: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. '. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.

The ftp server address is the ip address of the desktop... Firstly, is this possible ?? if yes, please help me with the error.

HI Yashwanth,

Please cross check the folder path in your communication channel and give the correct path so that your issue will be solved.

Cheers!!!!

Thanks to all.. The error is solved now. There are two modifications that I did :

1) mention only the directory in the FTP properties in the IIS settings.

2) do not mention the directory in the Communication channel... i.e. i gave only the folder name... and the file got picked.

Thank you

"//ftproot"

Hi Yashwanth,

the only thing you need to check that you have configured your File sender communication rightly and provided parameters

like File name , Directory in right format..

also make sure that the file which you are try to pull is with the same name by looking at the error it looks like there is problem in communication channel and you have not provided details in right format.. check values for each parameter you provided against actual FTP details..

the problem is in communication channel .. provide right values and right details in right format...its simple scenario check for SDN with File scenario and File sender adapter configuration you will get many links..

Thanks,

Bhupesh

Hi Yash

Can you please give me the details of your Sender File Adapter Configuration in ID. Also let me know what FTP server you are using for this scenario.

[Former Member]

looks that for directory you've used c:\inetpub\ftproot please remove it

[Former Member]

Hi,

Yes, this scenario is very much possible.

The directory name is not correct; check the directory name you have configured in Communication channel.

Remove the path of the root directory from the directory name you have configured.

Hi Supriya,

thank you for the reply. Do you mean that I should create another folder and then make it the root directory while installing FTP..

Please clarify..

[Former Member]

ur target directory should be something like this:

/ftproot

[baskar_gopalakrishnan2]

You get FTP 550 error.

550 Requested action not taken. File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).

Try with different path and place file over there and see what you get. Looks like FTP server not able to access this directory due to permission not given or the path given is wrong or syntax error or file is not placed. So try different path and see how it behaves.
