Error during FTP connection

[former_member216353]

Dear all,

We are trying to FTP some files, to a remote FTP server using XI.

The required details are configured in FTP receiver channel.

The below error is shown in the FTP receiver channel.

"Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: ConnectException: Connection timed out (errno:238)"

Did anyone face a similar error. Kindly drop in your comments and resolutions to fix this issue.

Thanks in advance,

Younus

Hi,

I think it is due to some technical problem better to check with network people it will sort out easily.

Hello,

Generally there is a network firewall which prevents sending files to outside FTP locations & the network team needs to open up a port for you to communicate to other FTP locations.

Hi Mohammed,

Check whether your FTP is up and running.

Its quite possible that the number of connections is more than the max connection possible for you FTP. If thats the case, you have to check with your FTD admin to increase the possible connections limit.

Also make sure that you have provided the correct credentials in your file CC.

Have a look at the below old threads:

Hi!

1. Go to Run -> CMD and write Ping and IP Address which is used and see whether you r getting reponse from the FTP server.

Try to login to the ftp server which you have mentioned in CC using the user name and pwd, to chk whether you have the permissions to login to the server.

Also the check whether the folder you are trying to access is having permission for delete/read/write.

Restart the FTP server and try it again.

2. Go through this weblog to check ur FTP setting :

3. Also check once agin the authentification details given in the sender file CC..

Give ip --> Your XI IP.

Id -- > Username@FTPserverIP

Pwd -> FTPServer Password

Port -> default ftp port

4. Please check from the FTP owner regarding the read & write permissions and also regarding theFTP server status regarding UP or not and finally the max no of connections are fulled or not ? if not please ask him to increase the connections..
