FTP std return code 07550, Error code = 00002

Hi,

My mainframe job is trying to FTP a file onto a wintel server. Here are the steps it is trying to do.

1) Login
2) Put a file with a name FileX
3) Check if a file with name File1 exists (LS File1)
4) If not exists (if RC is 70), rename filex to file1

Thats all. Here are the JCL steps I used

Step1 FTP commands
<server name>
id
password
pwd
CD fnp03\sp
locsite fwf

Step 2 FTP commands
put 'dataset' filex

Step3 FTP commands
LS filex

Ste4 FTP commands - This will execute based on step 3 return code
rename filex file1

But while doing the change directory CD fnp03\sp, I am getting the following error message. This is a production job and it has been running fine all these days and no changes were made in the recent past. The only thing wintel team said was there was a patch installation done, and then later they have re booted the server. All my other FTP jobs which access the same server (but different location) are working fine except this.

Thanks for your prompt reply. My job uses some kind of logical name instead of actual physical server name and then changes directory.

Ex - if ABCDEFGH is the physical server name and the folder where i need to place my file in ABCDEFGH is EKK\DKK

But my job logging into PQRSTUV and then changing directory to EFGH\DKK.

Note the last 4 chars of m physical server name and the fiest folder of my change directory are same and then It is skipping EKK. But all these days, it has been like this and the files are properly FTPd onto the server location properly.

I looked at the link given, but I don't think that is my case here. Because I submitted a job now without any changes under my ID and it went fine.

Not sure what is going on with the server.

There is something different between the jobs that are running and the one that failed. You need to identify what that is so your site support group can help get it fixed. This is not something that can be fixed on a forum -- someone working at your site will have to figure out the issue.

Sure. I am checking with my support group as well. I will surely post the solution after I find one.

Thanks for all the responses till now.
