CFFTP Inconsistency
Tagged Under : CFFTP, ColdFusion
I’ve got a scheduled task running that generates a file and sends the file over to a FTP server every day. I have been expereincing some very inconsistent behaviour with the way this works.
Almost 50% of the time, the FTP connections gets opened and then when it tries to upload the file, it fails. If I just go in and re-run the scheduled task, there is a chance that it might work in the first attempt but if not, it works in the second attempt. When I try to access the FTP server via other means like command prompt or FTP clients, I never get any kind of timeouts or connection problems. I tried increasing the timout on CFFTP tag but didnt help as well.
Does anyone know if this is something to do with the CFFTP tag ? has anyone else come across this before. ?
