Multiple FTP in the same job doen't work correctly

[punky]

Hi everyone

Example to illustrate my problem
In the same aft job I try to transfer 3 differents ( I cannot use *)files from the same share, 1st ftp correct but the 2nd = ko and the 3rd forget !
they use Control M6.3. They use too Control M6.1.3 and there are no problem with this kind ob job.
It is transfert between 2 windows servers, with unix

I check the box 'continue on failure' but nothing change
I check the box 'rerun from point of failure' but noting change too.

Any ideas ?

the second transfert doesn't work because the source file as you ask for, has been deleted, the third because the second is KO

Suite

I have 3 files on the same share
toto
tata
titi

the job transfer the first without pbs, but when he try the second transfer from the same share he reply
ftp reply --->550 : The system cannot find the path specified.
but it is the same that the first one but for an other file

[LordOfAfford]

Seems your problem is linked to the fact when the second transfer starts the FTP is repositioned to another directory then the root on the unix server then you would expect.

For each subdirectory you enter you have to go back out of it in the subsequent transfer.

This means for you the following

In transfer 1 you do a transfer _var/aftuser2/data/toto
In transfer 2 you do a transfer ..\..\..\_var/aftuser2/data/tata
In transfer 3 you do a transfer ..\..\..\_var/aftuser2/data/titi

The ..\..\..\ is meant for going back 3 subfolders to your root and then start of your new transfer otherwise your transfer thinks it needs to search the other file in _var/aftuser2/data/_var/aftuser2/data/
which is off course wrong since that does not exist.

Hope I explained it well.

[punky]

I understand what you explain.
But in this case the directory is on windows server, how could I say to go back and restart from beginning ?
Here in this place they use virtual directory ( for me it's new)
ex : virtual directory toto = C$\DATA\OUTPUT

They I have the same job (FT) on control M 6.1.3 and there are no problem You can have 4 FT in the same job = OK

[LordOfAfford]

I'm guessing here but try

first transfer to \toto\ virtual dir
second to ..\tata\ virutal dir
third to ..\titi\ virtual dir

ftp reply --->550 ..\_TransfertINTG\Operations-IT\FA-Profolio: The system cannot find the path specified.
Unable to enter source directory '..\_TransfertINTG\Operations-IT\FA-Profolio\[/list][/list]

for the second FT it's impossible with .. or without
and the directory exist

[LordOfAfford]

The source directory can never be a relative path on the server, therefore virtual directories can never be put in the source directory (left panel), they can only reside in the target directory on the right transfer panel.

[punky]

The log I get:

the first ft is ok ( virtual directory to virtual directory)
and the second is KO ( with .. or not)

How could it be possible to cannot do this kind of ft with 6.3 and with 6.13 it's possible ?
