FTPClient (commons net) Upload problem

Question

I use the following piece of code to upload a photo to a ftp host. But the photo seems to be corrupted after being uploaded: There are narrow gray lines at the bottom of the photo.

The size of gray lines could be decreased by decreasing the Buffer Size of the FTPClient object.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTP;
import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPReply;
import sun.misc.Cleaner;

public class FtpConnectDemo1 {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    FTPClient client = new FTPClient();

    try {
      client.connect("ftp.ftpsite.com");

      //
      // When login success the login method returns true.
      //
      boolean login = client.login("[email protected]", "pass");

      if (login) {
        System.out.println("Login success...");

        int replay = client.getReplyCode();

        if (FTPReply.isPositiveCompletion(replay)) {
          File file = new File("C:\\Users\\e.behravesh\\Pictures\\me2_rect.jpg");
          FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream(file);
          client.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);

          if (!client.storeFile(file.getName(), input)) {
            System.out.println("upload failed!");
          }          

          input.close();
        }
        //
        // When logout success the logout method returns true.
        //
        boolean logout = client.logout();
        if (logout) {
          System.out.println("Logout from FTP server...");
        }
      } else {
        System.out.println("Login fail...");
      }

    } catch (Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
      try {
        //
        // Closes the connection to the FTP server
        //
        client.disconnect();
      } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
      }
    }
  }
}

Never ever heard of corruption of that type, but: are you uploading from behind a firewall? Try doing client.enterLocalPassiveMode(); before calling storeFile.
