TIMW Issues in FTPAPI




Hi Scott and list.  Some time ago I spoke a bit on the mailing list about an issue we are seeing with FTPAPI when it tries to open a data connection and fails and the job hangs in a TIMW state.  The initial control connection of the FTP works well and the time-out parameter there works perfectly when we get no response.  It is on the data connections for directory listings and so forth that we see the issue.  We'll see in our log the directory list was requested, but then the log stops there and the job stays in a TIMW forever.

I believe you mentioned we'd need to do something similar to some code in HTTPAPI to allow for a time-out on the data connections.  I am willing to work on this (unless someone has already solved this), but I was hoping you could drop a few more bread crumbs for me to started on the changes.

Thanks much,
Brian
