Hi all,

Thanks for your replies..

my issue get resolved..

i used ' / ' only in the folder path.FTP admin gave the incorrect path..

path which i have given in CC is /ftphome/public/Coop_erp

when we checked the folder path by accessing from PI server it is directly showing /Public/Coop_erp.

so i removed the  " ftphome " from the path.. it worked..

Hi Bhargava,

You said the folder path is there on the server. Not sure if you remotely logged in or accessed it through file explorer.

sometimes, admin can expose the directory from where files needs to be processed as a root directory. In such case no need to give complete path and instead you can simply give a '/" so that files will be processed.

To check if that is the issue- can you try below?

Connect to that FTP server with the credentials(not a remote logon - may be you can use filezilla/ftp://) and try to locate the folder you are looking for.

If you use filezilla,it displays the target path on the right hand side and you can simply use it in your channel.

Regards,

Hareesh
