FTP error

An update to this post.
I bumped up the trace level and am waiting for this error to re-occur (Hopefully it does not).
I will be better equipped to debug, if it happens again.
It has been running without any problems for now. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Narasimha,

Just out of interest, when you bumped up the trace level did you also change the Data Connection Mode to "Passive"?

hi,
a good thing about datastage is that you can use whenever oracle functions, unix functions, universe functions

then in before job or after job, as you like, you can use a system function, like rcp if you're in unix platform. if telnet is ok, I think rcp will be ok too

bkerebel,

That's a rather confusing post. Did you post that message into the correct thread? Narasimha's issue is related to FTP and has nothing to do with Runtime Column Propogation.

I just wanted to say than in "after job" you can use something doing the same job

and if ftp in telnet works, the "after job" function would manage where ftp stage is sporadic

I maintained the Data Connection Mode as "Active" as we did not have any firewall issues.
I wanted to keep the "Passive" for later. I will give that a shot if the problem re-occurs.
Thanks!

Bertrand, if I inderstood you correctly, you are talking about scripting the ftp and calling it as an "After job" right?(saving that for last)
