When running from command line using corecmd.exe, I attempted to upload a file that didn't exist locally. The job returned successfully, the -log file showed it uploaded a file, and there was a success entry in the -output file.
Shouldn't this be setting a return code of 30 for file not found?
Thanks,
Gary
bad return code when uploading non-existent file
On an unrelated issue, the -log file has lines ending in CR CR LF. In notepad it looks fine, but in my nicer editor, every other line is blank.
This is the log of the file not being there.

That should work, although you may want to consider using fully qualified paths (ie: c:\upload\x)
I did not try using the -FN parameter in my test, I tried that in a new test and the %errorlevel% variable was 30 again.
You should see a "x - File not found" error in your log. Unless there was a directory named "x"?

When I posted my command, I had redacted it a little. I've left more in this time.
I did further testing and was able to get a return code 30 with
corecmd.exe -s -site Bank_Test -A -O -u Z:\BNK-Bank\Bank\upload\ACH.txt -FN x380.acfhxx.w700 -log logs/log_ACH.txt -output logs/output_ACH.txt
But, when I added the -p option, it then returned a 0
-p /ch172712

Using "-p /ch172712/" still returns 0.
Using "-p /" returns 4.
In the log file it was attempting to 'CWD ' and threw an error
I tried -p // and it then did 'CWD /' and again returned a 0. For the rest of my testing I will use this option.
Finally I found something interesting. I was able to recreate this every time. Of course, I've been using the bank site (Unix). I then tried our z/OS mainframe ftp and same result of 0. I finally tried our IIS ftp server and received a 30 with the following in the log:
IIS with -p:
TYPE A
WARNING: Zero length file...200 Type set to A.
ACH.txt - File not found...
So, it appears receiving the 30 is dependent on the server that is being connected to?
After looking closer, I also noticed that the "200 Type set to A" was in a different location for several runs.
Unix without -p
TYPE A
200 Type set to A.
WARNING: Zero length file...ACHEAS.txt - File not found...
IIS without -p.
257 "/" is current directory.
WARNING: Zero length file...TYPE A

200 Type set to A.
z/OS without -p
257 "'xxxx.'" is working directory.

ACHEAS.txt - File not found...
200 Representation type is Ascii NonPrint
In the least it looks like the log is being written to by two different threads. Could it be an issue dependent on how quickly the server responds?
Let me know if there is any more info I can pass along or if there is anything else I can test.
Using "-p /" returns 4.

Sorry for the delayed response as I didn't get an email about your post.
I didn't realize server type was even an option. It is set to Auto, but when I tried to change it to Connect:Enterprise, it told me that it requires Core FTP Pro. I am only using the LE version, so I cannot check if that would make any difference.
I tried changing my z/OS setting to Unix and it then did give me the 30 as it should.
Setting the correct server type might solve the problem, but I still don't see why that would be necessary to check the existence of a local file.
