I'm trying to create a folder on an FTP server by creating a dummy file and then deleting it. This works, but in some cases the server times out. If I make a subsequent attempt, I get the �Error Previous request not completed�. message. The problem is that the previous request was cancelled out due to timing out, so the pipeline is never re-opened to accept new commands. Is there a way around this problem?
How are you determining that the server has timed out? Does the url command return an error in the result, or are you just guessing this is the case because nothing has happened for a long time? The reason I'm asking is that the message "Previous request not completed" shouldn't occur if the previous request has already returned a result. If you're getting this message after the previous request has completed, then it looks like a bug in libUrl.
For example, if your script is something like this:
put "dummy data" into url "ftp://someserver/...../newfolder/dummy.txt"; if the result is not empty then answer ("stage 1" & return & the result) else delete url "ftp://someserver/...../newfolder/dummy.txt"; if the result is not empty then answer ("stage 2" & return & the result) else answer "all went well" end if end if
Are you getting a timeout message at "stage 1" or "stage 2"?
Where are you getting the "Previous message not completed" error, at stage 1 or stage 2?
Try logging the activity with the libUrlSetLogField command:
libUrlSetLogfield the long id of field "myLog"
If the log results are very long, you can post them to me privately instead of the list.
It would also be useful to see the script you are using to do this.
