$ftp->put doesn't work

[Altan Tütek]

Hi,

i wrote a simple script by using Net::FTP to transfer a mpeg file from
/cdrom to the harddisk of my Sattelite-Reciever (which acts ay a ftp
server).
Now my problem is: Normally a 700MB file must be transferred, but when i
execute the script,it says that everything is ok. I also can see the
file on the server but it has a size of 0 byte. Can somebody help me ?

here's the part of the script:

....
$ftp->cwd("hdd/mpeg");
$ftp->type("I");
$ftp->put("/cdrom/mpeg2/avseq01.mpg");
$ftp->quit;
....

Specify 'Debug => 1' in the new() constructor and see if that tells you
anything.

# $ftp = Net::FTP->new("some.host.name", Port => 21, Timeout => 15, Passive =>1, Debug => 0)
# or die "Cannot connect to some.host.name: $@";

Specify 'Passive =>1'
