I'm using the curl command in a bash script to transfer some files from an ftp
server to a database/web server. Occasionally, the file is about 1/2 received
when the download stops and curl just keeps on counting.... sometimes for days.
Besides a --max-time 600 option to stop the runaway aspect of this how do I
start to find out what's causing it? I do know 2 things:
1. The ftp server is on a Microsoft server:
220 tftp2 Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0).
331 Password required for User.
230 User User logged in.
Remote system type is Windows_NT.
2. The day that this happens is the busiest day of the month.
My current command is:
curl --max-time 600 -n $DATAURL1 > $DATAFILE1
What good is '--no-keep-alive' anyway? Could this force a time-out if the
connection is somehow being interrupted or otherwise broken?
