Shalom,

Try putting the name in double quotes.

I just tried this between 2 11i boxes and it worked without double quotes, with double quotes, but not with single quotes.
Are you going to a windoze box by any chance?

Hi:

The reported error is "Permission denied". This suggests that you do not have write permission to the directory in which you are trying to place the file.

Re: FTP is not transfering the file with file name %

Hi,

what kind of system is it, you want to ftp the files to?
May be this system does not accept a %sign as a filename character?
Try to put it under a different filename:
put CON025STATEVT-%07-%29-%9 xyz

Look for messages of this command: if it's again 'permission denied' it is really the classic reason.

Hi,
I tried on HpUX1i and it ran successfully. As alerady suggest can be a permission problem on remote host.
