how to go "mget" in psftp as part of the batch script ? . it is not working for me .

show us the relevant portion of the commands or script you are using now.  Also, run the "prompt" command before the mput or mget commands in your ftp script:

  prompt
  mget *.txt

if mget is not allowed, then you need to use get/put with a full filename

knightEknight,
I tried as u advised by "prompt" command . but it is not went though. As you as asked about log execution , pasted below  

ahoffmann,
I do have set of 50  and more files ,  my requiremment is to  pull/push all these files by the script . as this not possible by the one-by-one process , server also only support psftp rather FTP , looking the solution how to achive this .

Dear experts,
Any advice .. pull/push mltiple  multiple files in one shot in psftp .. detail log are provided  below as that I  tried .
Even  I tried to see what are the possible commands are there by > PSFTP  HELP  , there is so such mget , mput  present or  comand which will suffice my requirement.
========================================
bility@itc.it.com's password:
Remote working directory is /itc/r21dev
psftp> cd /itc/dev/interface/upload
Remote directory is now taca/dev/interface/upload/
psftp> mget *.*
psftp: unknown command "mget"
psftp> put test.txt
local: unable to open test.txt
psftp> put file.txt
local:file.txt => remote:/itc/dev/interface/upload/file.txt
psftp> get file.txt
remote:/itc/dev/interface/upload/file.txt => local:file.txt
psftp> mget file.txt
psftp: unknown command "mget"
psftp> mput file.txt
psftp: unknown command "mput"
psftp> mget *.*
psftp: unknown command "mget"
psftp> mput file.txt
psftp: unknown command "mput"
psftp> mget *.txt

----
psftp> prompt
psftp: unknown command "prompt"
psftp>
------------------------

thanks for all ..... in advance

if your ftp client is that stupid you have to feed it with a script around which uses a single get or put with each filename, I'd use expect http://expect.nist.gov/

Thanks for reacting so soon.
I spent some time on the suggested link that u  have given; It is totally new for me.  Not able to summarize what exactly and how to put it action to fit on my requirement.  I will highly appreciate If you already does it,  can u please paste resolution of the question ,atleast I will get the idea and I will take it forward for the next time.


Dear experts,
Any alternate solution on this,  please advice

# just a rough idea how it works:

spawn "/path/to/psftp" remotehost
sleep 3
puts "USER your user here\n"
expect {
  password { send "your password here"; exp_continue;}
  "remotehost-prompt#" { send "put your-filename-here"; exit; }
  timeout    { puts "connection timeout\n"; exit; }
}

# see expect man-page for detailed examples

omarfiied,
This also an excellent trick That I didn’t get before ,this  also well and good.  Hope you agree with me that some of the tricks comes with  time.

Thanks any way …
