Sometimes several events will occur within 1/1000 of a second. There’s the date/time stamp, which is provided to the thousandth of a second. DEBUG FtpService.processData() - Starting.

Looking in the ftpclient.log file itself, the first information in it will be from the FTP Client Begin Session Service. All of these can have useful information which can be compared with the ftpclient.log to find even more information. The lines which have “info” buttons under Status Report, Document and Instance Data. There will be no useful information in the ftpclient.log for any other nodes. All of the FTP steps will execute on the same node. On a clustered environment, this information will tell which node was used to execute each line. The date/time stamp for the beginning and end of each step of the business process.

I’m not going to discuss all of them, but let’s look at some of them.įrom this, you can note a few things that will be useful when we look at the log: When I turned the logging level to “Yes”, and ran the same process, 1572 lines were added to my ftpclient.log! With the ftpclient.log set to “Logging Level” of “No”, or error-only mode, nothing was added to the log, because there weren’t any errors. It does an FTP Client List Service, then it disconnects. It has an FTP Client Begin Session Service which logs in to “oxnard” using port “4299”, userid “admin” and password “password”. I ran a very simple FTP business process. The logging for it is kept in the ftpclient.log. In Sterling B2B Integrator, if you are initiating a connection with FTP, you are using the FTP Client Adapter. This blog has two sections “Successful FTP Client Connection:” and “Unsuccessful FTP Client Connection:” There are a lot of options and parameters in an FTP transfer. (There are others, too…) It also has passive and binary options for how SSL/TLS security is handled. For example, the type option itself has two common parameters, ASCII or type A, BINARY or type B. It has dozens of command options, and several places where different types of data are specified.

This protocol is one of the oldest ways in the computer industry for transferring data between two systems. Let’s talk about the logs that are used for FTP. This blog is part of a series in which I am conducting swimming lessons to help Sterling B2B Integrator users to make use of the sea of information that is stored in some of our logs.
