Trying to run a flow, on Rich Client, to FTP a file from our network (Globalscape server) to LSF (the file land on the Landmark server at all).
If I run it using an FTP node/locally - it works fine and the user for the file (on LSF) ends up being my user.
If I then try to upload the flow and run it through Rich Client - it no longer works. Our windows person told me that Landmark can't see the network and he's trying to figure out why it can't - but yet, when I run it locally, it can. It looks like when I run it through Rich Client - the user is definitely "lawson" and I'm thinking "lawson" can't see the folder/file on the network. So while the windows engineer it looking into that, I set up a SysCommand node to run a Unix script (our LSF is on Linux) that does an FTP and importdb to GLTRANSREL. I uploaded and ran the script through Rich Client and it worked perfectly - no issues at all. So the SysCommand node can be run through Rich Client (but again, the file ends up being owned by lawson/lawson and write permissions are locked down to the "lawson" user) and the FTP works fine from network to LSF - but when I try to run it through the FTP node - it fails. I've tried setting up another configuration file called "GlobalScape" and it has the network IP and the user/password that I'm using directly within the Unix script that is working and using that in my FTP node - but it still fails. I have both the inbound and outbound set to "remote" which I believe is correct because the flow is running through Rich Client (on Landmark) but the input is on the network and the output will be on LSF. I tried playing with the "remote" flag but that did nothing and I believe they both should be remote anyways.
I can certainly continue to run this through the SysCmd node permanently but I don't like that "lawson" ends up owning the file because that could be a problem down the road and also I feel like the FTP node "should" work. Any thoughts why SysCommand node works and FTP node doesn't? Any thoughts on how to change the fact that "lawson" ends up owning the file - is there a way to prevent that? Please let me know if there is other information needed that I haven't provided. Thanks so
much in advance for any advice or suggestions or assistance!! I'm fairly new to IPA so I apologize if I'm not explaining this all correctly..
