Lightbulb Capturing failed FTP error
Hi All,

Please check the below ftp related job, which is deleting the files from remote host. Problem is it is not capturing the ftp failure error, and the exit status is still '0' eventhough the deletable files are not present in remote location OR ftp credential are incorrect.


#!/usr/bin/ksh -x

export REMOTEHOST1=10.19.5.221
export REMOTEUSER1='ganap_01'
export FTP_PASSWD='mysore001'
export OUTPUT_DIR='/export/home/ganap'

ftp -n $REMOTEHOST1 <<EOD
user "$REMOTEUSER1" "$FTP_PASSWD"
del $OUTPUT_DIR/aaa.log
del $OUTPUT_DIR/bbb.log
del $OUTPUT_DIR/ccc.log
del $OUTPUT_DIR/ddd.log
bye
EOD

# Checking the success of the FTP call
EXIT_STATUS=$?
if [ EXIT_STATUS -ne 0 ];then
echo FTP Failed
exit 1
fi


Please see the result below:

/export/home/ITC_rlok>ftp*
+ export REMOTEHOST1=10.19.5.221
+ export REMOTEUSER1=ganap_01
+ export FTP_PASSWD=mysore001
+ export OUTPUT_DIR=/export/home/ganap/
+ ftp -n 10.19.5.221
+ 0<<
user "ganap_01" "mysore001"
del /export/home/ganap/aaa.log
del /export/home/ganap/bbb.log
del /export/home/ganap/ccc.log
del /export/home/ganap/ddd.log
bye
/export/home/ganap/aaa.log: No such file or directory.
/export/home/ganap/bbb.log: No such file or directory.
/export/home/ganap/ccc.log: No such file or directory.
/export/home/ganap/ddd.log: No such file or directory.
+ EXIT_STATUS=0
+ [ EXIT_STATUS -ne 0 ]


I dont know, how to handle this. Please suggest/guide me.

With Regards,
Mysore Ganapati. Smilie
