We are testing OTM 5.5.2 and have an FTP issue that I would like to hear if any one else has seen, When we tender a load tender via FTP we are getting the following exception, OTM does cvonnect to the remote directory /204/CRFS and creates and empty file.
I can ftp fine from OTM 5.0 with the same FTP setup and also via a command prompt so this is kind of a wierd issue, not sure what is causing this exception. Any sugestions would be appriaciated.

The solution to the FTP problem
1. To solve the problem please download "Jakarta Commons Net" from:

The Jakarta Site - Commons Net Downloads

and add the following to the glog.properties file:

glog.util.ftp.client.package = org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient

The file needs to be unzipped and the commons-net-1.4.1.jar file copied to the
glog/gc3webapp/WEB-INF/lib/3rdparty directory

and finally the weblogic.conf needs to be editted to add the file to the classpath. Add the line:

wrapper.java.classpath.#=../../../glog/gc3webapp/WEB-INF/lib/3rdparty/commons-net-1.4.
1.jar

where:
# is the next number in the wrapper.java.classpath lines. (e.g. if the last line says
wrapper.java.classpath.7 then # should be

2. Restart the web and application servers.

Runi,

Thanks for the info on this! I'll add this jar file to the archive of 3rd party jars required for OTM. Once I finish reviewing and documenting all of the OSS licenses, I'll make this available to the forums -- so that everyone doesn't have to download all of these separately.

Unfortunately I this is a result of Oracle's legal issues with certain OSS licenses. When they took GC3 over, we were no longer able to distribute these jars with OTM - even though they're required for it to function
