Sir, I want to know if sftp connection fails and we want to this error message in log file. How can I get this? I have tried using below script but it wouldn't work:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/expect spawn sftp $PCMSu@$FTP_LOC 2>> log_error_file expect "password:" send "$PCMSp\n" expect "sftp>" send "cd /batchfiles/aspect/\n" expect "sftp>" send "put /$PCMS_OUT/qsdaily.dta\n" expect "sftp>" send "exit\n" interact

Please share how can I check if sftp connection is done successfully or not? is there any way by using that I can check for error if connection lost or not established?

As per my understanding, a batchfile (-b option) is used to send the long file using sftp. Please correct me if I am wrong?
