Hi,

I want to download file from sftp. If i hardcoded the filename it works. But, the file starts is random.

Can some one help me why it fails ?

Works : $data_file = "Decemeber2009_3rdParty.csv";
Fails : $data_file = "*_3rdParty.csv";
SFTP :
    my %args = (user => encode("iso-8859-1", $ftp_user) , password => 
+encode("iso-8859-1", $ftp_passwd));
        $args{ssh_args}  = [ port => encode("iso-8859-1", $ftp_port) ]
+ if $ftp_port;
        $sftp = Net::SFTP->new($ftp_url, %args);
        return 0 if (!$sftp);
        $sftp->get(encode("iso-8859-1", $ftp_file), $local_file);
        my ($statuscode, $statustext) = $sftp->status;
        $log->error("\nFile not found") if($statustext ne "No error");

FTP:
    $ftp = ($ftp_port) ? Net::FTP->new($ftp_url, Port => $ftp_port) : 
+Net::FTP->new($ftp_url);
        return 0 if (!$ftp);
        $ftp->login($ftp_user, $ftp_passwd) or return 0;
        $ftp->get($ftp_file, $local_file) or $log->error("\nFile not f
+ound");
        $ftp->quit;

Thanks
