Error -36 while copying .pkg from ftp server I obtain an error


  Some data can't be read or written (error code -36)


while copying a .pkg file from an ftp server in Finder. I have read this related question. I have contacted the owner of the ftp server about this issue. Is there anything I can do myself?
You may want to try a dedicated FTP application, they tend to do a better job (in my experience) than using Finder for FTP copy. Also if you are comfortable in the command line you can do FTP there as well.
