FW: [HP3000-L] I/O read error in FTP stream job

I tried Paul Christidis' suggestion and it worked great.

I also tried putting the FTP commands into a permanent file and then using
that as the STDIN, but FTP kept giving me a "Not connected. (FTPERR 8)"
error. When I put the commands into a temp file as suggested by Paul, it
worked with no problem.

Thanks to all who responded.

Jim.

I replied to James privately but Paul's reply reminded me that inline
data in jobs does not work inside a WHILE loop. Paul's solution works
best. (I would also use variables instead of JCWs just to keep the CI
in native mode.)

James,

The problem is do to the 'in-line' FTP commands. Try the following
'rearranged' stream file:

!JOB FTPRECV,EDIMGR.EDITRAN,FTPRECV;PRI=DS;OUTCLASS=LP,1
!COMMENT
**************************************************************
!COMMENT *
!COMMENT * PUT A LIST OF THE FILENAMES ON THE FTP SERVER INTO A FILE
!COMMENT *
!COMMENT
**************************************************************
!PURGE FTPFILES
!FILE FTPFILES,NEW; REC=-80,,F,ASCII; NOCCTL; TEMP
!ECHO OPEN xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx >>ftpstdin
!ECHO USER user password >>ftpstdin
!ECHO BINARY >>ftpstdin
!ECHO EXITONERROR >>ftpstdin
!ECHO CD \Customer\IN >>ftpstdin
!ECHO LS >>ftpstdin
!ECHO QUIT >>ftpstdin
!SETJCW FTPOK 0
!WHILE FTPOK = 0
! SETJCW CIERROR 0
! SETJCW JCW 0
! RUN FTP.ARPA.SYS;stdin=ftpstdin;STDLIST=*FTPFILES
! SAVE FTPFILES
! IF JCW = 0 AND CIERROR = 0 AND FTPLASTERR = 0 THEN
! SETJCW FTPOK 1
! ELSE
! SHOWVAR FTP@
! PAUSE 30
! ENDIF
!ENDWHILE

Regards
Paul Christidis
