Welcom to the VMS forum!

Would You mind to tell us, what does not work, how doesn't it work, which VMS version, which TCPIP software and version ?

Here on my ancient VMS 7.3-1 with TCPIP 5.4 it looks like:

sftp avmp01
Connecting to avmp01...
sftp> cd scratch/tmp
sftp> mput fw*.zip
Uploading fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip to /DISK$HUBER/HUBER/SCRATCH/tmp/fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip
fwAtlas-2.0.2.zip 100% 22KB 21.6KB/s 00:00
Uploading fwFSMAtlas-3.2.0.zip to /DISK$HUBER/HUBER/SCRATCH/tmp/fwFSMAtlas-3.2.0.zip
fwFSMAtlas-3.2.0.zip 100% 353KB 352.9KB/s 00:01

The VMS version i'm using is VMS 8.3-1H1

sftp2 id@apsp.com

sftp>cd /conv/Extracts
sftp> mput fm*_0035.txt
sftp> mput fmp_0035.txt
fmp_0035.txt | 1.3MB | 656.0 kB/s | ETA: 00:01:04 | 3%

can anyone help me on this

[marsh_1]

hi,

you have'nt said or shown exactly what did'nt work, can you post up any failure messages you got or retry with -v to get the verbose output.

[652]

problem is it is not ftp the file to unix box if you give * in the middle of file

[Joseph Huber_1]

So Your problem is:
a wildcard "*" mput is doing nothing, but mput with a single file is working ?
I can't reproduce the problem, it works VMS yo VMS and also Linux to VMS.

What are Your systems? both source and destination VMS ?

[652]

source is VMS and the destination is UNIX

[Jan van den Ende]

652,

>>>
source is VMS and the destination is UNIX
<<<

WHICH unix (and version)

Unix <> Unix <> Unix.

There are MANY Unixes, with similarities, differences, AND incompatibilities...

Proost.

Have one on me.

jpe

Ah yes, now I see it:
mput wildcard from VMS to Linux does not work, without any message from the linux side.
same with a wildcard mget from the linux side.

It works if You specify the VMS filename including version like
"mput f*.txt;*"

Probably this behaviour is a result of the SSH shell command issued from sftp.

(sftp,scp) are crooks ;-)
