Path of source file is : /public_html/upload/64/SomeMusic.mp3
And I want to move it to this path : /public_html/archive/2011/05/64/SomeMusic.mp3
How can i do this using FTP commands?
The FTP command to move files is "rename," in effect renaming the file path. Automate uses this same command to move a file into its new location.
All about File Transfer Protocol and FTP clients File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a network protocol for transferring copies of files from one computer to another. An FTP client is a program that allows you to move files between computers.
In FTP client:
rename /public_html/upload/64/SomeMusic.mp3 /public_html/archive/2011/05/64/SomeMusic.mp3
With FTP commands:
RNFR /public_html/upload/64/SomeMusic.mp3 RNTO /public_html/archive/2011/05/64/SomeMusic.mp3

Just in case someone else will search for a solution to move files by ftp and will not find a solution: As I encountered the same problem and even the RNFR
and RNTO
will not work like in my case: I solved this by doing the following workaround:
mget files*.ext cd /path/to/desired/folder/ mput files*.ext
This is twice the traffic (get and put) but for smaller files it is at least a solution.
