Fixes a situation where not every file selected for transfer with an MGET command is transferred.
The problem presents as UFTP reporting the file being added to the remote file list, but then not being able to find the file when the transfer starts.
The problem was most often – but not exclusively -- seen when an FTP or SSH server is listening on ports other than 21 and 22, respectively.
If a local file list cannot be built as part of MPUT processing, a cURL error -504 is reported, but UFTP ends with exit code 0.
The fix for this Defect corrects the exit code processing so that UFTP will end with exit code 202.NOTE: Also included for this fix is a change to the cURL error reported for this situation. Instead of reporting:
UNV6674I cURL return code: -504
UFTP will now report:
UNV6674I cURL return code: 26
This makes the Unix implementation consistent with Windows.

B-10691 | All | UAGSRV | Add explicit FTPS (FTPES) support to UFTP. Enables transfers using TLS/SSL over connection to standard FTP port 21, provided the FTP server supports it. To request TLS/SSL from a Remote File Transfer or Remote File Monitor task, select the FTP protocol and prepend ftpes:// to the FTP server host name or IP address (e.g., ftpes://somehost). If the FTP server has enabled TLS/SSL support, the connection will proceed using encrypted communication. If TLS/SSL support is NOT enabled, a plain text session/transfer is done. The UFTP ENABLE_SSL configuration option (default:no) is provided to always request a TLS/SSL session, eliminating the need to specify the ftpes:// prefix. The UFTP AUTHENTICATE_PEER configuration option (default: no) is provided to control FTP server certificate authentication. When set to “yes”, the UFTP CA_CERTIFICATES configuration option must specify a CA certificate that can authenticate the FTP server’s certificate. |
