FTP Client DEBUG 100 Trace before Starting FTP

Troubleshooting


Problem

The process for enabling an FTP client DEBUG trace before issuing the FTP command is described in this document.

Resolving The Problem

A capability has been added to the FTP client for debugging. This function is similar to the DEBUG 100 described above. When the FTP client is started, it first checks for the existence of a data area named QTMFTPD100. You need to create the data area QTMFTPD100 in the QTEMP library. On the IBM OS/400 command line, type the following:

CRTDTAARA DTAARA(QTEMP/QTMFTPD100) TYPE(*LGL) AUT(*USE)

If the QTMFTPD100 data area exists, it will set the debug value to 100 and start an FTP client trace. The purpose of this capability is to enable FTP client debug traces to be done in those situations when an FTP client trace cannot be started by issuing the DEBUG 100 subcommand.

This will generate a spooled file for the user that has signed on to the FTP session.
