FT automation error

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   In trying to automate file transfer processes, I have written a small program that creates a script, writes it to VOC and executes the script. When running the program, I get a "FT requires AccuTerm to run!" error and "ACCUTERM/WN32" is not in your VOC.

If I exit the program and run the script from TCL, it runs just fine. Any suggestions?

I am using AccuTerm 2k2 with UV on Redhat and have loaded the new BP libraries.

The script in question: 

SELECTed record name = "TESTFT16157".

8 lines long.

----: P

0001: PA

0002: FT

0003: DATA S

0004: DATA K

0005: DATA VOC

0006: DATA FTPICK.SCRIPT.LOAD.TESTJOB_20111127

0007: DATA C:\DATA\FTPICK\TESTJOB_20111127

0008: DATA FTPICK.SCRIPT.LOAD.TESTJOB_20111127.txt

Bottom at line 8.

----:

Thanks!

	Hi Jeff - When you are running the script from within the program, could there be something in the EXECUTE environment that is preventing output from the host to AccuTerm, like a CAPTURING clause, or maybe a PRINTER ON that is in effect? Also, take a look at the FTSEND subroutine which you can call directly from your program using CALL instead of EXECUTE. Thanks, Pete
