Hello everyone,

I'm trying to connect to a FTP Server. Below is the code

myFTP = ftp('host','user','pass');

cd(myFTP,'CUCM_CDR');

mget(myFTP,'vez.txt','C:\Users\vez\Desktop\CIS');

The connection is succesfull but the mget fails. The file is copied to the target folder but it's empty. The error I get is

Error using ftp/mget (line 109) FTP error: 500.

It looks like a bug to me. I finally used "urlwrite" function and it works fine for me. I'm using MATLAB R2017a.

Something like this:

LocalFilePath = urlwrite('ftp://someaddress.org:8811/dong/retrograde/image.tif', 'image.tif');
