Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Capturing failed FTP error Post 302114883 by matrixmadhan on Thursday 19th of April 2007 05:40:48 AM

thats the return status of the ftp session established,
since it had completed successfully, the return status is 0

ftp session return status overrides the return status of the commands executed within the ftp session.

To acheive that, possible way could be redirect the ftp logs ( commands issued, output received from the ftp server )
once the ftp session is done,
parse the log,
to identify the operation was successfull or not
ftp return codes are available and with that it should be easier to identify the status of the operation
