OK, so your client is the z/OS ftp client. I assume (ouch!) that you're running PGM=FTP. OOPS - looked at your original message and you're running ftp in TSO batch. Why? Example JCL without TSO in batch would be: //STEP1 EXEC PGM=FTP, // REGION=0M, // PARM='(EXIT' //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //OUTPUT DD SYSOUT=* //INPUT DD * ipaddress-of-remote userid-to-use password-to-use cd "/ps/cs90ftp/conversion_files/CC/extract/Files for Production" put 'UMSDEV.QA06.CCITFULL.D090714' citizen_D090714.dat /* I wonder if TSO is stripping off the quote marks?!? > > >How about trying something like: > > > >cd /ps/cs90ftp/convesion_files/CC/extract > >dir > > That's a better way to test, without creating the file in the wrong > place.

Can you post the entire output of your batch ftp job? It might help us discover what the server software is. And that might help with debugging. Munge as little of the output as possible (just things like IP address, userids and passwords, if possible). -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
