Data Sending/File Sharing Problems and
Remedies
The following describes how to resolve data sending/file sharing problems.
Unable to Send Data/Share Files (FTP)
Cause 1
: The FTP server is not set correctly.
Remedy
: Perform the following steps to check the server status. (If you are using
Windows, perform these steps from the MS-DOS prompt.)
•
Example using UNIX, where the FTP server has the IP address 192.168.1.195
U:>ftp 192.168.1.195 *Connect to server
Connected to 192.168.37.195.
220 canmfs FTP server (UNIX(r) System V Release 4.0) ready.
User (192.168.37.195:(none)): user_name *User login
331 Password required for user_name.
Password: *Enter password
230 User user_name logged in.
ftp> cd /export/share *Move to data destination directory
250 CWD command successful.
ftp> bin *Set data transfer type (binary)
200 Type set to I.
ftp> put sample.tif *Set transfer file name for verification

NOTE
•
If the above are confirmed and file sharing still does not operate normally, consult the
network administrator for the environment you are using.
Cause 2
: The machine’s address [User] setting contains one or more spaces after the
User name.
Remedy
: Ensure that the machine’s address [User] setting does not contain spaces after
the User name.
Cause 3
: The machine was turned to OFF while sending data to the FTP server, and
when the machine was turned back to ON, it attempted to resend the data.
(When a Windows NT/2000 FTP server is being used.)
Remedy
: If power to the machine is turned to OFF while data is being sent to the FTP
server, the FTP server may hold the data in a writing-in-progress state.
Therefore, this data cannot be overwritten even when the machine re-connects
