Do you need exclusive read lock on those files? When the files is being dropped into that FTP folder are they already done? For example write to a temp folder and then move the file (atomic OS operation)
If so you can use readLock=none. Its generally best to have a strategy where the producer does that in a temp folder, or as temp files (eg like .inprogress) or something. And then rename/move the file afterwards (which would be atomic OS operation). Camel allows you to build you custom read lock strategy in case you want to do something custom. Some just download the files and check the content is complete, eg if its a xml file that the end tag is there. -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/FTP-Polling-exclusive-read-lock-problem-tp3228159p3228266.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
