IOException caught while copying on CFFTP

[iangoethert]

Hi all,

I have an application that transfers PDF files via FTP over a VPN links from different servers. Occasionally, the CFFTP will error with the message: An exception occurred when performing the FTP getfile operation. The cause of this exception was that: IOException caught while copying.

The problem occurs about 30 seconds into the transfer where it suddenly stops transferring, another 30 seconds later the error is thrown. If the file is small enough to transfer in 30 seconds or so, there is no error.

Active/passive doesn't seem to make a difference. There are no errors on the remote, nothing unusual in the IIS configuration.

CFMX7 7.0.2.142559 with Java version 1.4.2_09.

Does anyone have any thoughts on where it could be going wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Ian

I have the same problem and it started when I upgraded to 7.0.2 with Java version 1.4.2_11.

An exception occurred when performing the FTP GETFILE operation. The cause of this exception was that: IOException caught while copying..

Is there a fix for this? It only seems to happen on Gets.

I've wondered if it was something with the current version. In the error details, it looks like something going awry deep within Java. I'll try going back to a prior version and see if that fixes it. It will be next week before I can get that done but I'll post back here to let you know if it's a fix.

Thanks.

I'm going to update java to 1.4.2_12 to see if anything happens. I'll let you know.

no one else has seen this with 7.0.2?

We went back to 7.0.0.91690 and found that the problem is resolved. (Java1.4.2_05)
