         Hi All,

        I have one FTP server. my biztalk application continues upload file XML on http://FTP. Same way one third party applicaiton continues pickup those files.

        Now a days i faced one problem sometimes biztalk show me that file Upload successfully but In third party system client can not see those data

        Is this the case that before biztalk finished its task (Uploading file task) third party system pickup those files from FTP (Third party application continuesly reading application) So Third party would fail to match those XML with DTD. So Third party just move those file to garbage.

        Is that possible in FTP Transformation?

        Do we have any option in FTP Send port like File Send port (Use Temporary file while writing).

        If yes then plz guide me how do i prevent this problem.

        In advance i appreciate your suggestion. 

        Regards,

        Dhaval M.

          Try using the Temporary Folder option on the FTP adapter.  If that doesn’t work, you might try the FTP adapter from NSoftware:  http://www.nsoftware.com/products/biztalk/adapters/ftps.aspx.  You can download a free trial to see if it solves your problem.

            Dhaval,

            I guess you could try uploading the file to a different file name (say with a different extension or folder) and then add an After Put command that renames/moves the file. Like Russel’s suggestion, I also recommend looking at nsoftware’s adapter as an option; it’s pretty complete. It actually does contain an option for uploading the file with a temporary extension and automatically rename it once the upload is complete, which is pretty useful in cases like this.

                 Hi Tom/Ruselw

                First of all i am very much Thankful for your suggestion i appericiate your suggestion.

                But as such nsoftware is 3rd party tool and client has some financial issue due to we cant afford such 3rd party tool.

                Now i make one .Net application which ll rename files on FTP as per user requirements and i execute that application using expression shape after it upload file on FTP.

                Regards,

                Dhaval M.
