PLSQL FTP Update

Though not published online yet, I have made the promised updates to the FTP code that will introduce the following :

  • MPUT
  • MGET
  • LOB enhancement to expedite data transfers
  • Enhanced Debugging
  • XML Formatting of NLST
  • Obscuration of Username/Password for Oracle Apps environments
  • Zero Byte File Allowed by Default with optional enforcement of non-zero byte rule


I have some fine tuning that I have to perform. One discovery that I found in this version and even the current one available for download… Microsoft 2010 documents do not transfer correctly, whereas previous versions work just fine. Not clear as to what the difference is though. The workaround is to make sure the file is zipped up first as zip files work just fine.

If you have the time, maybe you can find the answer to the issue and email me at bsc7080-at-yahoo-dot-com with your solution. I am very puzzled right now.
