Re: FTP suddenly stopped working

That looks a lot like the FTP connection was never established. Has your remote server changed ip addresses, names, IS, etc.?

You should be able to see connection messages in your log, something like "Connected to server xxxxx", and some security messages based on your login credentials.

We have a nightly process that has been running for 10+ years and suddenly
it stropped working.
The process builds a file called AIRRES on our local ISeries and saves it
to the IFS in /QDLS/MESSAGES,
then FTP's it overseas to our Bangkok server.
The file is being successfully created on our local IFS but FTP fails.

Here is the log:
