RE: FTP Issue

Michael,

APAR SE18281 lists 3 ptfs that should apply, depending on what release
you're on.

If you don't have the PTF suggested workaround is:

CALL QSYS/QUSDRGPT PARM('EXITPOINTNOTFOUND   ' 'NOTFOUND' X'00000000')

If you have to get your work done pronto, a 'put' from the development
machine may still work, as that should serve the role of ftp client in that
case, not server.

Good luck.

 Subject: FTP Issue

I have been trying to FTP this morning from our Development Machine to
our Production Machine(to promote a program to production).   No luck.
I tried to stop and restart the FTP server.  I found that when I tried
restarting the FTP server, I got the following message in QSYSOPR----
'FTP server initialization failure'.  When I display the job log
associated with this, I discovered. This. 
Message . . . . :   Exception CPF3CDB occurred when trying to get
information  
  for exit point QIBM_QTMF_SERVER_REQ with format name VLRQ0100.

Cause . . . . . :   The QusRetrieveExitInformation API returned an
exception   
  when attempting to obtain information for exit point
QIBM_QTMF_SERVER_REQ.   
  Recovery  . . . :   Check the job log or the system operator log for
other   
  messages. Correct any errors indicated.  Start the FTP program again.


I then went ot WRKREGINF and could not find this exit point.  It is
however on our production machine.  

FTP has worked up until the last couple of days.  

Any ideas why this would be missing.  How to get it back?

Thanks
