Please use rsync to synchronize files. It is much more efficient than FTP. You can use the download scripts in the source tree directory src/product/scripts/
Is your FTP client a 32 bit application ? --Hiram ----- Original Message ----- From: "B.Kumar" <[email protected]> To: [email protected], "B.Kumar" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, March 5, 2011 12:05:46 PM Subject: [Genome] ftp from ucsc site hangs Hi! I am trying to download some 2bit files from the ucsc goldenPaths area, using Java FTP client packages. For relatively small files (such as tetNig2.2bit), the transfer goes smoothly. For larger files (such as hg18.2bit), the transfer does seem to download the entire file, but then hangs at the end. This has happened with 2 client packages (org.apache.commons.net.2.1 and Calvin Tai's FtpBean) - so it does not seem to be a client software problem. It could be a setup problem on my end - I am using passive mode and binary transfers. Has this problem been reported by anyone else? Is there a ftp client mode/setting/procedure that you would recommend I should use? Thanks in advance for your reply.
