  using Fetch 4.0.2
  OS X 10.1.5

  have this AS that allows me to slect an item in the finder and upload it to a sever. prob is i get an error: -30000, unexpected server response.

  the fetch transcript shows:
  250 CWD OK, "/mxm.com/screensnaps/proteus/".
  TYPE I
  200 Using MacBinary mode to transfer files.
  MACB DISABLE
  200 MacBinary mode disabled.
  PORT 24,148,54,202,111,72
  200 PORT OK, IP address 24.148.54.202 port 28488
  STOU Services_20020625.jpg
  502 Command "STOU Services_20020625.jpg" not implemented.
  ftp_store_setup: -30000 (state == RPUT_SETTING_UP)
  ABOR
  CStreamOT::Read() OTRcv() returned -3208
  200 ABOR OK.

  property destinationHost : "ftp.server.com"
  property myUserName : "user"
  property myPassword : "password"
  property destination_Dir_Final : "/files/"

  tell application "Finder" to set the item_list to selection

  with timeout of 60000 seconds

  tell application "Fetch 4.0.2"
  activate
  try
  make new transfer window at front with properties ¬
  {hostname:destinationHost, userid:myUserName, password:myPassword, initial directory:destination_Dir_Final}

  repeat with aFile in theList
  put into transfer window destinationHost item aFile as alias format Raw Data with uniquename
  end repeat

  close transfer window destinationHost

  on error errMsg number errNum
  display dialog "Fetch got an error " & errNum & return & return & errMsg
  return
  end try

  end timeout

  The script logs in ok and into the correct directory... the prob comes when uploading it.

  The server does not support the "STOU" (store unique) command; that's the command Fetch uses to upload a file while making sure that it won't overwrite an existing file with the same name. So you need to remove "with uniquename" from the line in the script that starts "put into transfer window..." -- without that qualifier Fetch will use the regular upload command (STOR) instead of STOU.

  Thanks,

  Thank you very much. This worked!
