I am trying to FTP some apple DMG files, if we do it by hand through Safari or IE it ends up at the destination just fine and uncorrupted. However, if I use a freeware FTP client that we had been using with great success for zip's and exe's or if I use a Powershell script I finished off (adapted from another stackover flow's question's answer) then I lose about a 1/2 Mb on a 10.5 Mb file and the dmg is corrupted. Does anyone have anyclues what could be going wrong? Things I could do to prevent it? So far all I have tried is gzipping the dmg before sending and that accomplished nothing. Again, anything but a dmg gets transmitted just fine.
FYI I am using binary mode transfers, so that is not it..thx though
Just so everyone knows. It must have been the client I was using had the exact same issue as my PowerShell script. I was using StreamReader to get the bytes for transfer and it was assuming an encoding which was not correct. I switched to a BinaryReader which does not, and it now works.
