I am trying to ftp a large file (310406 blocks
) from Open VMS to a HP UX server
But I am getting the following error message
"-RMS-F-IRC, illegal record encountered; VBN or record number = 248924"
Any help welcome
Thanks

Re: FTP Problem
have you run an anal/rms against the file to check for any corruption in the file.

Re: FTP Problem
What format is the file? Is the transfer being done for archiving, or some other purpose?
HP UX (and other *IX) systems generally only support binary or text files. If this is a keyed or other RMS supported format, it will need to be converted.
If the file is simply being archived, I generally suggest that clients use OpenVMS BACKUP to create a saveset, and then use the OpenVMS version of ZIP (with the "-V" switch to preserve file attributes) before transfer using FTP. It prevents file formats from being corrupted.
ZIP archives should, of course, be transfered as binary files.

Re: FTP Problem
this file is a MUMPS database file, right ? Not sure, whether this can be correctly copied via FTP to a non-VMS system. Can the file still be opened from MUMPS (or Cache as it is called now) ?
If you want to copy the file for archiving purposes, create a BACKUP saveset first, then copy the backup saveset.

Re: FTP Problem
if your search in Google Groups for FTP RMS-F-IRC, you'll find some entries, which describe similar problems when trying to FTP mumps database files and using the TCPWARE TCP/IP product.
