Timeout CoreFTP when download hangs

Post by Ky »

Hi,
I am running CoreFTP through DOS batch (W2K Server scheduler) every 15 minutes to download a file and upload a file.

I always make good login connection, but every so often it will error with 550 Transaction Failed ... Service Unavailable or rejected when it trys to get a file; then it hangs indefinitely. I understand this is a server issue but I have no control over the server.

I have gone through all the timeouts and search the forum without avail.

Is there a way to timeout and exit CoreFTP? Since my FTPs last less than one minute, I would like to timeout CoreFTP after 5 minutes and be ready for the next run.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Thanks for the quick response CP.

CoreFTP PRO
Version 1.3, build 1420.02

I will attach the log next time it fails... It is intermittent and can be annoying when it happens.
