----- From server with Curl 7.15.1: ----- I use the command:/usr/bin/curl -k --ftp-ssl -u username:password ftp://host:port/,FILENAME,WITH,COMMAS -O
The output I see:  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed  0     9    0     9    0     0      3      0 --:--:--  0:00:02 --:--:--     0curl: (18) transfer closed with -9 bytes remaining to read
And the file is downloaded to the current directory, with the same name as the remote file

----- From server with Curl 7.19.6: ----- I use the same command
The output I see:  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:--  0:00:03 --:--:--     0
And there is no file downloaded
If I replace the commas in the file name with %2C, the outcome is no different. If it helps I can run with -v and post relevant details. Thank you for your help and prompt response

> I'm using curl to download files via FTP and some of the filenames have commas in them (not something I can control), this doesn't appear to be a problem in the 7.15.1 version but the transfer fails when using version 7.19.6. Is there a workaround for this?

A problem how? Tried using %2C in the URL instead of the comma?
