Large ASCII Files (over 1274 line) Scramble Upon Transfer

#1 Post by gwyner » 2021-06-17 12:56

When trying to transfer large source files (c source code) over 1274 lines, the format of the files gets scrambled, with lines at the top showing up near the middle of the file. We have tried using ASCII and auto mode and also forcing max 1. connection but still get the same issue. Using SCP from the command line, we do not get this issue. Is there a known reason why this is happening and or a workaround?

Cannot reproduce.

Which version of FileZilla are you using? What operating system are you using? What happens if you transfer the file as binary file?

Thank you. Below is a copy of the information you are looking for. If I try binary the file is unreadable on the server. Keep in mind I am uploading these files to a mainframe running z/OS and the encoding is EBCDIC on that end. As mentioned, if I use SCP from the CLI no issues, only when using FileZilla.
