Error FTP on OPENVMS

EPENOY — Fri, 12 Jul 2019 12:38:53 GMT

I can't get files from Windows FTP server.

Il have the message :

$ cop /ftp Server"username password"::"/remonte/NomFichier.dat" testam.txt

%TCPIP-E-FTP_OUTPROCF, error processing output file ASTR$ROOT:[000000]TESTAM.TXT;2

-RMS-W-RTB, 64512 byte record too large for user's buffer

The file seems to be on stream_lf format

When the size of file is less than 30000 bytes, it's OK

Is there some logicals names to prevent this error ?

Thanks for your help

It does? One long (file-size) record?

I'd try adding /BINARY. You may need to fiddle with the file
attributes after the transfer.

HI,

Thanks for your answer.

I did it but the file conversion with FDL Stream_lf format doesn’t work.

I wrote a program wich analysed each character.

May you help me to convert the file without using the program ?

With my weak psychic powers, I can't see the data in the original
file, or the data in the transferred file, or what you did as your "the
file conversion".

I can't see your "a program", or what it might do, either.

Based on what information do you expect anyone to help you?
