    <p>I am trying to retrieve files (.csv) from an ftp site and save them all locally in the same folder. My code looks like this:</p> <pre><code>#! /usr/bin/ruby require 'logger' require 'fileutils' require 'net/ftp' require 'rubygems' require 'mysql2' require 'roo' require 'date' # logging setup log = Logger.new("/path_to_logs/ftp_log.log", 10, 1024000) log.level = Logger::INFO export_ftp_path = '/Receive/results/' export_work_path ='/Users/pierce/results_exports/' Net::FTP.open('host', 'username', 'password') do |ftp| log.info("Logged into FTP") ftp.passive = true ftp.chdir("#{export_ftp_path}") ftp.list.each do |file| log.info("Found file #{file}") new_file = file[56..115] #take part of the file name and remove spaces and periods new_file = new_file.gsub(/[.]+/, "") new_file = new_file.gsub(/\s/, "0") ftp.gettextfile(file,"#{new_file}") log.info("Downloaded file #{new_file}") end end </code></pre> <p>And here is the error I receive:</p> <pre><code>/Users/pierce/.rbenv/versions/1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/ftp.rb:560:in `initialize': No such file or directory - (Errno::ENOENT) from /Users/pierce/.rbenv/versions/1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/ftp.rb:560:in `open' from /Users/pierce/.rbenv/versions/1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/ftp.rb:560:in `gettextfile' from ftp_test.rb:44:in `block (2 levels) in &lt;main&gt;' from ftp_test.rb:33:in `each' from ftp_test.rb:33:in `block in &lt;main&gt;' from /Users/pierce/.rbenv/versions/1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/ftp.rb:116:in `open' </code></pre> <p>As suggested, here are the values I have for puts file and puts new_file.</p> <pre><code>file = -rwxr-xr-x 1 1130419 114727 9546 May 17 08:11 results_Wed. 16 May 2012.csv new_file = results_Wed0230May02012csv </code></pre> <p>Any suggestions on what to change in gettextfile or within my script to get the files saved correctly?</p>

    1. COYou need to at least start by fixing the file you are downloading. It should be `ftp.gettextfile("#{file}","#{new_file}")`. You can't have `new_file` as the source name.

    2. COThanks for the suggestion. I made that change and got the same error as the first error message above. Any other suggestions.

    3. COHow about just `ftp.gettextfile(file, "testfile")`. Also you should debug (print out) what `new_file` is before you use it.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
