Hello ,
I have developed the code for transferring the file to FTP server and send notification and the script is working fine in my local system but if i am executing the same script on server it is throwing error: 

$SFTPServer = "test.ftp.com"  
$SFTPUser = "user"  
$Pass = "password"  
$SourceFilelocation = "\\SourceServer\Script\FTPTest\Output_Files\"

$RemoteLocation = "//destinationDirectory/"  
$todaysdate=Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMdd"  
$logfilepath = "\\SourceServer\Script\FTPTest\"+$todaysdate+"Powershell.log"  
  
  
  
$getDate = Get-Date -Format "MMddyyyy"  
$FileName = "GreatwestMasterfile.txt"

$BakupFileName = "GreatwestMasterfile_"+$getdate+".txt"  
$BakupFileLocation1 = $BakupFileLocation+$BakupFileName  
$RemoteLocation1 = "ftp://"+$SFTPServer+$RemoteLocation+"/"+ $FileName  
$EmailSubject = "FTP-greatwest -" + $datetime

    Shouldn't you be converting the $pass value into a secure string and using the secure string in the "New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential($SFTPUser, $pass)"???
