Script FTP maintain error handling
Hi,
I have ftp script like below
Quote:
#!bin/sh
#***** Set local working directory *****
cd /path/to/script/and/files
#***** Set ftp server, credentials, and file(s) to search for *****
HOST='SERVERADDRESS'
USER='FTPUSERNAME'
PASSWD='FTPPASSWORD'
FILE='FTP_*.dat'
#***** Send files to FTP server *****
ftp -vn $HOST <<END_SCRIPT
quote USER $USER
quote PASS $PASSWD
prompt n
mput $FILE
quit
END_SCRIPT
How to insert an error handling, If the transfer failed then send mail to me.
Actually, I just need the script to send an email if the FTP failed. How to put the email script within FTP script?
Thank You
Edy

simpleftp
SIMPLEFTP(1) General Commands Manual SIMPLEFTP(1)
NAME
simpleftp - rudimentary ftp client
SYNOPSIS
simpleftp ftp://... [ ... ]
DESCRIPTION
simpleftp is a perl script that provides basic support for fetching files with FTP in a batch oriented fashion. It takes one or more ftp
URLS on the command line. The file(s) will be retrieved from the remote server and placed in the current directory with the same basename
as on the remote; i.e., ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/active.gz is stored as active.gz in the current directory.
BUGS
simpleftp is an extremely poor substitute for more complete programs like the freely available wget or ncftp utilities. It was written
only to provide elementary support in INN for non-interactive fetching of the files in ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/ without requir-
ing administrators to install yet another package. Its shortcomings as a general purpose program are too numerous to mention, but one that
stands out is that simpleftp does not understand the complete syntax of URLs, only the hostname and pathname parts -- it will not under-
stand username, password, port or parameter strings.
