IBM WebSphere Adapter for FTP: Setting the remote event directory property

Question & Answer


Question

How to set the remote event directory path if the remote event directory is not under the root folder of the FTP server or is under the root folder of the FTP server?

Answer

The path of the remote event directory must be absolute. It should start from the root directory of the system and not the root directory of the FTP server.

For example: Consider the case where the remote event directory is under the root folder of the FTP server:

If the FTP root directory is /usr/ftp_root, and the remote event directory is /usr/ftp_root/event, then the remote event directory property should not be specified as /event; rather, it should be specified as /usr/ftp_root/event.

Now consider the case where the remote event directory is not under the FTP root directory:

If the FTP root directory is /usr/ftp_root, and the remote event directory is /usr/event, then the remote event directory property should be specified as /usr/event.
