While I try to FTP a file using FTP enterprise stage from the specified path to my server, the job aborts giving an error that the file name does not exist. But If I create a file in the root directory of the remote server with the same name of the file [not required to be of the same format] and I try to FTP, my job runs successfully and fetches all the records from the remote path specified. Is there any specific setting that has to done?

The URI property is documented as follows.
Type: Pathname
Name of the URI to get or put the file from or to.It can be more than one occurence. Supports limited wild carding. The expected syntax is ftp://hostname[:port]/URIpath
You need to make sure that the URI path points to where your file actually is. If you simply include the file name, it will expect to find the file in the FTP root directory.

I have set the URI followed by the open command where I have specified the remote path.
In the URI I have set the property as below:
ftp://<RemoteServername>/<Filename>
In the open command I have specified the remote path where the file resides as shown below:
cd /<RemotePath>
Do we have to have a file with the same name in the root directory of the remote server for us to ftp the file from the remote server path to our local server?

It should not be necessary. The cd command should suffice.

But it is not working if I remove the file from the root directory.Is it like some kind of bug or is it a mistake with the settings that i have done

I have used direct path in the location property and it works (cant access DS right now hence cant tell u the exact name of the property). In my case i put a path like /home/<name>/<folder>

FTP Enterprise stage?
