    Okay folks, one of my developers is having some FTP issues. He has some
    scripts that he has placed in oracle's cronttab. His procedure works fine
    when he runs things from the command line, but when he places them in cron,
    it doesn't work. For the life of me, I can't figure out what is happening.

    any help is appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    Here are the scripts: (btw, x.x.x.x represents the ip address we are
    connecting to, and username and password represents the username and
    password of the user)

    runftp script:
    rm -f /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log
    date > /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log
    sh /u/wynncommupdates/ftpscript.sh >> /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log
    #sleep 10
    #mailx -s "Wynncomm FTP Update Log" markpr2@walkerassoc.com <
    /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log
    mailx -s "Wynncomm FTP Update Log" dba@walkerassoc.com <
    /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log
    mailx -s "FTP Log" jimla@walkerassoc.com <
    /u/wynncommupdates/wynncomupdate.log

    ftpscript.sh script:
    #!/bin/sh
    #
    ##########################################################
    # #
    # This script is updating wynncomm through FTP. It #
    # puts the following files on ftp server x.x.x.x #
    # #
    # /u/wynncommupdates/RedZone.csv #
    # /u/wynncommupdates/ItemFam.csv #
    # /u/wynncommupdates/ItemGroup.csv #
    # #
    ##########################################################

    ftp -n -i << EOF
    verbose
    open x.x.x.x
    user username password
    put RedZone.csv
    put ItemFam.csv
    put ItemGroup.csv
    bye
    EOF

    Here is the output that is given when it is run from the command line:
