FTP JOB Failed : Control channel unexpectedly closed ('' read so far)

[5vrajasekaran]

Hi,

When I try to setup an FTPS setup to transfer files am receiving this error, I could connect to the destination server through Filezilla(port :990)

Could you please provide a solution for this?

"FTP JOB Failed : Control channel unexpectedly closed ('' read so far)" is the output of the Tidal job.

Hi 5vrajasekaran,

Are you sending files or receiving files? This could be a result from low disk space on either source / target site. Please verify.

We are trying to transfer files from our local server to the target(by FTPS), but we can transfer files through FTP from same sorce to the same target.

Could you please explain the same.

Got the same issue. I believe its something to do with certificate handling when creating the encrypted communications channel. There are some agent config options which might help but I'm still investigating myself so I don't have a definitive answer. Hopefully later today....

Are you using FTPs or SFTP?

It sounds as if the problem is not with your end of the connection but rather the other end or points in between.  If the job has been working, you haven't changed it any, and you can also connect to the counterparty manually then in my experience the problem has been on the other end.

Got what seems to be a conflict here. If I set  SSLVLDCRT=N in the agent config file then SFTP jobs work ok but FTPS stuff fails with the error above. If I set SSLVLDCRT=Y then the FTPS stuff gets further but SFTP jobs promptly fail.
