Description From Andrei Hutanu 2004-07-29 05:54:18

When transferring directories, globus-url-copy returns
strange errors regarding the files inside the directory.
For example :
error transferring gsiftp://litchi.zib.de/tmp/aa/X[97][97].tbl:
[globus_gass_copy_get_url_mode]: globus_url_parse returned error code: -8 for
url: gsiftp://litchi.zib.de/tmp/aa/X[97][97].tbl
I guess that's because when doing the directory listing, it tries
to create URL's by concatenating the file name to the directory path.
This will of course not work since URL's have different requirements
than filenames.

yes, the filenames need to be url encoded before being appended to the url.

This is fixed and committed to CVS.  An update package to 4.0.1 will be 
available at http://www.globus.org/toolkit/advisories.html shortly.
