Answers: windows 7 - File upload batch

MChan

I am trying to write a batch file that will Upload and update a specific set of file on my desktop to an FTP account, so I wrote this batch:

@ftp -i -s:"%~f0"&GOTO:EOF
open DomainName.com
USERNAME
PASSWORD
binary
cd  httpdocs/myfiles
lcd F:\Test\Folder1
mput *.bmp
close
quit

by testing the above batch, everything work good until it reaches the line:

mput *.bmp

once this line is reached, connection freeze and the only way to resume after that is by restarting the router

So can someone please help me by telling me what exactly I am doing wrong here?

Update: 1. FTP server I am trying to upload to is Linux based (CentOS) 2. I am using a Windows XP - SP1 machine to execute this batch file 3. I've tried clicking CTRL+C to terminate the batch but still, even though the batch is terminated the connection remain freezed until I restart the router

Update 2: Here is the exact output of the commands I enter:

ftp
open domainname.com
220 ProFTPD 1.3.4a Server <ProFTPD> [IP ADDRESS of our server]
User <domainname.com:<none>>: USERNAME
331 Password required for USERNAME
Password: PASSWORD
230 User USERNAME logged in
ftp> binary
200 Type set to I
ftp> cd httpdocs/myfiles
250 CWD command successful
ftp> lcd F:\Test\Folder1
Local directory now F:\Test\Folder1
ftp> mkdir MyTest1
257 "/httpdocs/myfiles/MyTest1" - Directory successfully created
ftp> put test.bmp

Freeze connection and router

After

lcd F:\Test\Folder1

try

lcd F:\Test\Folder1
mkdir MyTest

Check that MyTest was created properly. I suspect that your router can't find the directory but isn't throwing an error. When the transfer begins is when it is caught.

I don't see anything wrong with

mput *.bmp

FTP script won't transfer remote files to local computer

ftp script batch

This is a follow up to FTP BAT file - Windows Scheduled Task.

I copied the FTP script, but I can't transfer the files to my local computer.

All I get is this (server address omitted):

331 Password required for ftpdemo.

230 User ftpdemo logged in.
ftp> lcd C:\Temp\Test
Local directory now C:\Temp\Test.
ftp> mget ErrorLog\*.*
200 Type set to A.
mget LogViewer.asp? quit
ftp>

Here's the actual script:

open ftp.myserver.com
ftpdemo
pass
lcd C:\Temp\Test
mget ErrorLog\*.*
quit

What do I need to fix?

UPDATE:

used PROMPT, now it loops through all the files, but keeps saying the following:

200 port command successful
550 "file_name_here": no such file

and same goes for every file in the directory ... it lists all the files, so they ARE there, I have no idea what's wrong. Also, I use the same account that I use for GUI ftp, and permissions should not be an issue.

Any ideas?

UPDATE 2:

here's how i got it to work (thanks to dave lozinski's site):

open ftp.myserver.com
ftpdemo
pass
lcd C:\Temp\Test
cd /ErrorLog
prompt
mget *.*
quit

basically I just had to change the directory on the server.
