Hi group,
i don t know what i am doing wrong. I just want to configure a ftp receive
and send port.
receive port :
folder : /receive
folder log : c:/log
username : server/Admin
Port : 21
Server : server
Mask : *.txt

send port :
folder : /send
username : server/Admin
Port : 21
Server : server
target : %MessageID%.xml

I start the orchestration and i drop a text file in receive ftp folder but
any message appears in the activity tracking and in the log folder.

1 : How can i debug if there is any message in the activity tracking
2 : Do you have a sample project with a ftp orchestration ?

THANK YOU

I recommend taking step by step approach.

1. Configure your Orchestration to use FILE Adapter, (RECEIVE and SEND) make
sure your Orchestration is Working
2. Change the RECEIVE side to use FTP Adapter.
Things to check
a. Is the file been picked up by FTP Adapter, YES/NO
b. If NO, check the settings in FTP adapter
c. Once the file is picked up, can you see the file on the SEND side (still
FILE Adapter) YES/NO
d. If NO, Open BizTalk admin console and Eventviewer to check for errors.
3. Change the SEND side to use FTP adapter.

HI Saravana,
Thank you for your help. I am trying what you said. Effectively the receive
file adapter works well and pick up the files but when i change the file
adapter by ftp, the files are not picked up. I checked the ftp setting, i
tried many setting combinaisons without success...
I would like just to say that i use a custom receive pipeline, i don t know
if there is a special way to work with ftp but it works with file adaper...
I have some doubts concerning the file adapter setting, particularly on the
username and and password setting... Theres is a way to check that the user
credentials are correct ?

Thank you again,

Clearly the problem is in your FTP adapter configuration. Here are the key
setting you need to configure in your FTP adapter

Important settings
FTP:
Server : ex: SKW2003
Folder : ex: Supplier/TradingPartner
Log: ex: c:\ftpadp.log
User Name: skftp
Password :
Port : 21

Polling:
Interval : some reasonable interval

rest of the stuff is optional.

You can also try to connect to your FTP site with a FTP client like WS-FTP
(http://www.ipswitch.com/_download/wsftppro.asp) to make sure you got the
correct connection details (like server, username, password etc).


Custom Pipeline:
Don't worry about the custom pipeline at the moment, it not the cause for
the issue now.

Thank you, i found the mistake. My ftp server permitted anonymous connections
and it appears that does not work with the biztalk process.
I just unchecked the allow anonymous connections...

Thanks a lot Saravana
