Has NO ONE ever heard of an instance where logging in to an ftp server manually (with the same credentials) allows you to see files in a directory but CFFTP won't? Scott ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Scott Brady <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Jul 1, 2005 1:19 PM Subject: FTP and file permissions To: [email protected] This is a follow-up to my posts from yesterday. One of our clients pushes a daily data feed to their FTP server, which we log in to using a scheduled task in CF and download the file and process the data feed. Since we upgraded to CF7, it appears that CF's FTP connection can't "see" that file (neither a directory listing nor a "File Exists" can seee it). If I manually log into the FTP server (using the exact same username and password), I'm able to see the file. If I then copy the file to some other name, CF can now see the new file. If I delete the original and rename the copy back to the original's name, CF can now see the file under the original name. To me, this sounds like some weird permissions issue, but why would I be able to see the file when manually FTP-ing in with the same exact credentials? Any ideas?
