2 ftps in script, second won't go to output file
I'm running this on both solaris and hp boxes, ftping from windows, then ftping to an aix machine.
If I run the ftpReportFile by itself, I get info in the ftp_rpt_log. If I run just the 2 ftps together, I also get output. However, if I run the entire shell script, I don't get output from ftpReportFile. And ftpReportFile is failing saying it can't find the file. Please help.

Code:
ftpEngine() {
ftp -inv ${FTP_SERVER} << EOF_FTP >> ${FTP_LOG}
user ${FTP_USER} ${FTP_PSWD}
cd ${FTP_DIR1}
cd ${FTP_dir2}
bin
mget ${FTP_FILE}
quit
EOF_FTP
mv engine.tar.Z $HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$test_type"/engine.tar.Z
}

ftpReportFile() {
ftp -inv ${FTP_REPORT_SERVER} << EOF_FTP > ${FTP_RPT_LOG} 2>&1
user ${FTP_USER} ${FTP_REPORT_PSWD}
cd ${FTP_REPORT_DIR}
pwd
bin
put ${REPORT_FILE}
quit
EOF_FTP
}

error when I do get output:

Instead of listing the full path to the file in $REPORT_FILE you may want to
Code:
REPORT_FILE=SUN_50_Report.txt
LOCAL_DIR=/export/home/qainst01/50

ftpReportFile() {
ftp -inv ${FTP_REPORT_SERVER} << EOF_FTP > ${FTP_RPT_LOG} 2>&1
user ${FTP_USER} ${FTP_REPORT_PSWD}
cd ${FTP_REPORT_DIR}
pwd
bin
lcd ${LOCAL_DIR}
put ${REPORT_FILE}
quit
EOF_FTP
}

The reason I had the whole path is to make the script as maintainable as possible. I have to use it in like 16 different places. Here's the declarations.

Code:
PLATFORM="SUN"
CURRENT_VERSION="50"
VERSION_FOLDER="TEMP_ZOOROPIA"
LOG_FILE="/$HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$PLATFORM"_"$CURRENT_VERSION"_log.txt"
PREVIOUS_LOG_FILE="/$HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$PLATFORM"_"$CURRENT_VERSION"_previous_log.txt"
#REPORT_FILE="/$HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$PLATFORM"_"$CURRENT_VERSION"_Report.txt"
REPORT_FILE="$HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$PLATFORM"_"$CURRENT_VERSION"_Report.txt"
PREVIOUS_REPORT_FILE="/$HOME/"$CURRENT_VERSION"/"$PLATFORM"_"$CURRENT_VERSION"_Previous_Report.txt"
DAT_FILE="SUNpdfmg.dat"
DBCS_DAT_FILE="SUNafpengmg.dat"

I'll be handing this off to another group that doesn't do any scripting in Unix and they need to just change the first few values and run it. If you know how to make it less confusing, let me know.
