Dear readers,
A colleague of mine is trying to extract data from an FTP server.
Using FME for this process would be beneficial to a large part of our organization, since it would enable us to create ETL processes for FTP-data.
My colleague encounters the following problem:
FTP/FTPS/SFTP transfer error: Timeout was reached
The settings he uses are:
URL: <url links correctly to a .csv on the FTP server starting with FTPS://FTP>
Transfer type: Download to a File
Target File: <.csv on OneDrive that does not exist yet>
File Path Attribute: _downloaded_file_path
Connection Mode: Passive / Active tried
Transfer Mode: Binary
Verify SSL Certificates (ftps/ftpes only): Yes
Authentication Type: Password
< username and password correctly set>
Proxy Type: Use FME Network Proxy Settings
My colleague received the following error:
FTP/FTPS/SFTP transfer error: FTP: command PORT failed
We guess that this is a question for our FME functional manager, but any thoughts on how to solve this problem are welcome!
