Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You run an FTP command to connect to an FTP server from an FTP client that is running a multibyte language version of Windows Vista or of Windows Server 2008.
  • You redirect the FTP command output to a file. For example, you run the following command on a computer that is running a Japanese version of Windows:
    ftp 1.1.1.1 2>result.txt
  • An error occurs.
In this scenario, the FTP command prompt is returned, and errors are not logged in the file.
