Call a web service on the production machine that checks the files existance...

Just a thought...

Subject: [ cf-dev ] CFFTP


Hi

I'm writing an application that FTP's images to the live server. If I don't get any 
error from CFFTP can I be sure that the image has arrived safely and it's entirity?

At the moment after each image is FTP'd I then do another FTP to get the directory 
contents, loop through this to get the size of the remote image and compare it to the 
local copy. if they are the same it updates the DB to say the image has been FTP'd, if 
not it tries again.

As there are 8,000 images in some of these directories this takes a while, if I have 
500 images to FTp it will take ages.

If I can't rely on CFFTP delivering the image and it doesn't give me an error if it 
doesn't work does anyone have a better way of checking that the file has arrived? As 
far as I am aware you can't get just one file record using FTP, you have to get the 
entire directory.

Thanks Again

Giles
