Hi I can just unclick or uncheck this options, some configuration copy or inadvertently click when binary transfer is desired this cannot be ON or clicked just unclick.
The SAVE bottom if is PCOM is in the TOP not down when receiving instead this above have sure you put DEFAULT or 80 in the box for RECORD length -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Phil Smith III Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2025 11:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: File transfer question A customer just had a problem uploading some service we'd released. It was an XMIT file, and they did transfer it as binary F 80, but TSO RECEIVE was failing. After some tinkering and comparing screenshots of the file, they eventually found that they had "the CR/LF option" checked in their emulator, which they called "the Rocket emulator" (I suspect that is/was BlueZone). They sent a screenshot that shows the file transfer options: Binary vs. text, plus checkboxes for Append and CR/LF. My question is: Can you devise a scenario where a binary transfer "with CR/LF" makes sense? I can't even think how it would decide where to put them in--it's just a byte stream! The only linends are whatever the native platform uses, but if it's binary those wouldn't seem to me to be meaningful. And of course a binary file could well have those bytes in the data. Maybe I'm missing something obvious [as usual]? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
