MVS no Data Sets Found (General questions)

by Brian, Monday, July 14, 2008, 18:40 (5975 days ago)

We have a single client that uses MVS for its FTP. We use a database driven solution that uses WOD FTPDLX.Net (1.4.0.122).

When i use the Simple VB example I am able to connect and put a file but I can not ListDir. Even if I set the DirFormat to MVS.

The ListDir is built into our code base and is causing an error.

How do I work around this ListDir issue?

here is the output from the debug session I ran.

FTPD1 IBM FTP CS V1R8 at e-server.ddci.net, 16:03:28 on 2008-07-14.
Connection will close if idle for more than 10 minutes.
USER X88899 Send password please.
PASS ###### X88899 is logged on. Working directory is X88899. .
FEAT Extensions supported
AUTH TLS
PBSZ
PROT
End
PWD 'X88899.' is working directory.
TYPE A Representation type is Ascii NonPrint
PASV Entering Passive Mode (199,34,66,35,7,51)
LIST -al No data sets found.


the code for the ListDir button from SampleVB.net

Private Sub button4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button4.Click
Ftp1.DirFormat = WeOnlyDo.Client.DirFormats.MVS

Ftp1.ListDir(textBox6.Text)
End Sub

Thanks in advance for your support

Hi Brian,


Most probably you aren't able to receive response form server because LIST command is send with -al argument.

Can you please try this:
[code]dlx1.ListParams =
dlx1.Connect[/code]
In this case LIST command will be send to server without argument. This is needed for some Servers.

More help for ListParams Property you can find here:

Let us know how it goes.


Regards,
Drazen

Can I change that parameter after I connect? Is that a standard MVS FTP issue? If so can I determine I am MVS after connecting?

Our FTP is built into a service and I need to find the best way to treat all FTP servers consistently where possible.

thanks

Ogedei,


Yes, you can add it when you are connected to server but before you execute ListDir Method.

I only want to change the listparam property if the file system is MVS.

How can I determine the filesytem after I connect? The DirFormat is always returning 0.

Is there a property i can get the filesystem data from?

Ogedei,


You can find reply from server using FtpReply Event and adding this code:
[code]Debug.Print(Command & & ReplyText)[/code]

Most probably you should receive there server type.
