Error getting last modified time stamp of remote file using MDTM FTP command (RA FTP v3.1.5)

[Leonard Olteanu]

I'm trying to get the last modified time stamp of a file on the remote FTPS server by running MDTM command in a RA FTP job, like this:

RA FTP solution seems to be able to retrieve Last Mod Time and to display it in Host A browser window (circled in red above), but I cannot get MDTM command to work in the Free Form Command. The job report shows the following error:

I ran MDTM command in WinSCP and it executes just fine:

Has anyone experienced anything like this? How can I get the last modified time stamp of a remote file?
We are using RA FTP v3.1.5 with AWA 10.0.3

Hi LeonardOlteanu ,

The free form command within our FTP agent does not support all "native" FTP commands. I'm quite sure that MDTM might be one of them. I can try this out and let you know afterwards. If this is not included that'll be a nice enhancement for a future release of the FTp agent.

Cheers,
Alexander

Thank you Alexander_Trenker_120! It's surprising that this feature is not available. I will surely like to see it in a future version of RA FTP!
Until then, it looks like I will have to convert a Windows agent into an FTP agent using scripting and 3rd party tools like WinSCP  :/

I just executed the mdtm command with our FTP agent FtpAgent 4.0.2+build.44 and it works.

That's great! One more reason we should upgrade our system to the latest version  :)
Thank you!

What version of java are you running?

It's not the latest version of Java 8:
