File/FTP adapter, outbound channel, content conversion, UTF-8 (Unicode)?

We would like to send "delimited" files to another application (tab-delimited, CSV, ... - the other application does not support XML-based interfaces). Obviously we will have an outbound channel that uses the file/FTP adapter and the data will be subjected to "content conversion".
The data contains names in many languages; not all of this can be represented in ISO Latin-1, much less in US-ASCII. I suppose UTF-8 would work. The question is: how is this handled by the FTP protocol? (considering that the FTP client is part of the SAP PI file/FTP adapter and the FTP server is something on the "other" machine)

Hi Peter,
you can maintain the file encoding in the outbound adapter. See [Configuring the Receiver File/FTP Adapter|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm]
For your requirements "utf-8" sounds pretty fitting.
Regards,
Udo

Sender File/FTP Adapter - Matching Input to Message Type

Hi,
I have a sender file/ftp adapter which is using content conversion to generate an XML document from the contents of a text file. This works fine and when I go into the SXI Monitor I can see the XML document I expect:
<ns:DN_360BalanceExtract xmlns:ns="http://xxx">
<ns:RN_360BalanceExtract xmlns:ns="http://xxx">
<BalanceRecord>
   <SerialNo>xx10000780</SerialNo>

</ns:RN_360BalanceExtract>
</ns:DN_360BalanceExtract>
Having created the XML document from a text file I now wish to use the XML as input to a web service. This will of course involve mapping the XML document to a message in the inbound interface. Question is how do associate the XML generated with a Message Type in the outbound interface. Do I need to make sure the Document or Recordset names match that of a Message Type ?
Cheers,
PaulC.

Hi Paul
The content conversion will create a document like that if you insert DN_360BalanceExtract as Document name, "http://xxx" as namespace.
RN_360BalanceExtract will probably be your recordset, with its namespace.
More information about content conversion on sender file adapter:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/ae/d03341771b4c0de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
I'm not sure what you mean by bound. If you mean that PI has to execute mapping you created for that DN_360BalanceExtract message type, you need to associate DN_360BalanceExtract to a message interface and then create all configuration objects and choose that message mapping when you create the interface determination object.

Issue on file sender adapter communication channel

Hi All,
I have an issue on some of the file sender adapter communication channels .The channels are failing with the error :
(u201CAttempt to process file failed with com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: com.sap.xi.swift.ParserException: com.sap.xi.swift.ParserException: Message does not start with character '0x1f'u201D).
Please let me know the procedure to get this message processed.
Thanks & Rgards

Hi Vishu,
Find out in what encoding the file is in. for that download Notepad++ and open the file with in.
In Encoding tab you will see the encoding format.
1. If its not UTF-8 or ANSI then you should set the correct encoding in Sender File channel.
2. Check for BOM characters which will not be visible directoly.
3. Use Notepad++ to convert the content to HEX and check for hidden values. i bet there will be some Encoding BOM in the file which is creating problem while picking the file.
Since you are using SWIFT module: try to validate the XML file using Altova XML and check weather is correct.

Using relative path for in file/ftp adapter

Hi All,
How to have a relative path for file/ ftp adapter's inbound/outbound operation?
Example: Consider $ORA_HOME = /home/oracle --> This environment variable can be different on different machines
i want to drop a file in to $ORA_HOME/folder1/folder2 (Or poll for a file).
<partnerLinkBinding name="FTP">
<property name="wsdlLocation">FTP.wsdl</property>
<property name="out_dir" type="LogicalDirectory">What do i write here???</property>
<property name="retryInterval">60</property>
</partnerLinkBinding>
if i cant configure this in partner link section or in activation agent sction, how else do i achieve this?
i am using 10.1.3.* version.
Thanks in advance.
Roshan.

You can achive it using the deployment scripts if the directory is changing on the basis of the environment
If you want to change at run time than you can use the jca properties to set using the variables at runtime.

Quality of service in Receiver file/ftp adapter (SAP PI 7.1)?

Hi,
    We are building an IDoc to File scenario in SAP PI 7.1, where a single incoming idoc will create three different output files. Also files must be created in target server in a specific order.
    Our first idea to ensure that files would be created following a specific order was that Message mapping (in Java) build target payload with all three files following expected sequence.
    In addition, receiver file/ftp adapter is setup with a dynamic variable to create each file with a different filename adding also timestamp.
    Testing the scenario, we see that three files are created in target server but when we sort them by creation date, it seems they don't follow always same sequence.
    Sometimes adapter creates File1, File2, File3; next time it created File2, File1, File3 and so on.
    Our problem is that files must be created always with a specific order and we cannot use BPM. Does anyone know if a receiver file/ftp adapter can be setup to create files following specific sequence (EOIO)?
    I know that sender file/ftp adapter can be setup with a quality of service, but I didn't find anything similar for Receiver file/ftp adapter.
    Suggestions will be welcome.
Kind Regards,
Aitor

Hi,
     First, thanks all of you for your quick answers. They were helpful because we learnt a new configuration setting.
     We tried your suggestions but they didn't really fix our problem.
     Finally interface has been re-designed and we will not have to apply this logic, so no issue from our side.
     However, let me continue with this topic in case that somebody else will have the same issue, then it will be able to review this thread.
     When adapter created the files in the target directory (windows server), files had the expected timestamp in each filename. However, if we sorted windows directory contents by "Date Creation", files were sorted different that timestamp shows in the filename.
     For example, adapter created following files:
File1_20090325-115117-169
File2_20090325-115117-174
File3_20090325-115117-180
     But when we sorted windows folder contents, files were sorted as follows:
File2_20090325-115117-174
File1_20090325-115117-169
File3_20090325-115117-180
     It seems that timestamp was pre-assigned by the adapter, but when adapter created the files, it did it with a temporary name and finally assigns the filename. If a file size was bigger than other, maybe it takes more time and windows creation date is higher.
     If so, it means that adapter is not following same instructions as itu2019s indicated in "maintain order at runtime" checkbox.
     Do you know if there is any way where we can push also the order in the adapter as we did in interface determination?
Regards,
Aitor

How to assign directory path of File/FTP adapter into a variable insideBPEL

Hi,
i need to get the directory path given to file/Ftp adapter (write/PUT) into a variable while invoking, which will be later used in some other BPEL service for processing.
i am able to get the directory path easily using "jca.file.filename/jca.ftp.filename" in case of invokin Read\GET adapter but am struggling to get these details while invoking a file/Ftp adapter (write/PUT).
kindly tell me is it possible to get these properties in case of file/Ftp adapter (write/PUT) !!!!
Thanks
Siva

Dynamic file naming with File/FTP adapter

Hi all,
I have a requirement for writing files with names of the files based on a customer ID.... a dynamic name based on a value retrieved from the customer DB.
I have already tried using the dynamic file naming suggestion in the bpel dev guide, it does not work. I followed the instructions, the process fails to compile and throws "part" and "undefined variables" errors etc.
Has anyone succesfully used file/ftp adapter to write files with dynamic file names (using a varibale), not %SEQ% or %datetime% formats?
Thanks,
Hasan

You can create a header variable that will allow you to set the outbound file name inside the process. This variable is a message type. From the type chooser select:
Message Types
Partner Links
Outbound Partner Link
Outbound wsdl
Message Types
Imported WSDL
fileAdapterOutboundHeader.wsdl
OutboundHeader_msg
This variable will have a part filename.
Set this part to whatever you wish your file to be named.
Select the invoke to your outbound file/ftp partnerlink. Move to the adapters tab and select the header variable you created as the Input Header Variable.

Configuring the Receiver File/FTP Adapter !!

Hi
I am trying to configure the Receiver file adapter using the J2SE adapter engine(Please note , NOT the J2EE adapter engine).I see a prerequisite for configuring as below
"The address (HTTP port and URL) where the adapter can be contacted from the Integration Engine".
What values are to be specified and how can they be validated ?
I could see an example given in the Docs saying below,
If i specify , say for example,
"XI.httpPort=1234 and
XI.httpService=/file/Receiver, the end point address of the file/FTP adapter in the Integration Engine must be specified as follows:
http://<fileadapterhost>:1234/file/Receiver"
Can anyone explain what exactly is this endpoint address and where should it be specified/referred to ?
Thanks
Saravana

Hi,
"http://<fileadapterhost>:1234/file/Receiver"
this adress refers to an end point with the end point type "xi-connectivity" in the integration directory (ID)which refers to the settings in the file adapter (httpPort=1234 and XI.httpService=/file/Receiver)
1. you specify these adress in the file adapter (outbound)
2. you refer to these adress in the ID (Receiver System End points)
every file adapter should have an own port, because you can not specify two identical ports in two fileadapters.
hope I could help you,
michele

Performance File/FTP adapter

Hello all,
I've got the following problem.
For a lot of interfaces I use the file/ftp adapter.
One of them processes periodically a lot of files in a short time period, for example 3000 files in 20 minutes.
This interfaces consists of 6 message types. Each message type has it's own communication channel (ftp).
The messages are appended into one file (plain text) on the FTP server with a fixed file naam. One file for each message type.
The processing of a lot of these files takes a lot of time, for example 90 minutes for one message.
They are waiting a lot of time in the adapter queue (messaging system) before they are processed by the ftp adapter..
I think this is caused by the 'append step' wthin ftp.
Question (problem) is how I can increase the performance.
I already know you can change (raise) the parameter 'Maximum Concurrency' in the communication channel. For example value 2 in stead of 1. Only I'm afraid this causes locking problems because the files have to be appended one by one. But I'm not sure about this.
My questions are:
- can I use the parameter Maximum Concurrency in this case? If yes, what value should it have to increase the performance substantially?
- what other options do I have to increase the performance of the file/ftp adapter? (adding an extra server node is no option)
I hope anyone can help me with this.
Thanks
Regards,
Marco

Hi Ivan,
Sorry for my late reply I had to leave yesterday.
Thanks a lot for your help so far!!
I still have a question about the Maximum Concurrecy parameter in the communication channel.
The interface appends file to one file on the FTP server.
When I raise this parameter (1->2) to 'activate' parallel processing then I'm afraid theere will be a locking problem, because in one interface there are now two parallel FTP connections that append to the same file on the FTP server.
Is this a risk or not?
Other question: are there any guidelines on how to set the parameter Maximum Concurrency? For example technical limitations.
Regards,
Marco

Process TIFF file from FTP server using File/FTP adapter

Hi,
I have a requirement to process a scanned document TIFF file from a directory on an FTP server using the File/FTP adapter and process through XI into a Web Service via a receiver SOAP adapter.
My question is can the file/FTP adapter be used to process the TIFF file into XI from an FTP server ? Also, what settings need to be made on the file adapter to allow this file to be processed into XI ?
Thanks in advance
Colin

hi colin,
TIFF is type of image file, it can be converted to binary using java mapping
refer this pdf

In my SOA Composite, Can I use file/FTP adapter to get the EDI X12 850

Our requirement is to build a SOA Composite to dump all the details in a EDI X12 850 ( Purchase order ) document in to a database table. In my SOA Composite, Can I use file/FTP adapter to get the EDI X12 850 element details to map them to a base base columns.

Drop the File Adapter to the left lane of the composite i.e., Services lane...
Go to Step 2, give a meaningful name....
Step 3, select "define from operation and schema"
Step 4, select the operation type as "read"
Step 5, select physical path and give the folder path in the "Directory for incoming files" field.,
Step 6, select wildcards and give the expression depending on the file name it would be at run time...
Step 7, select the polling frequency as required....
Step 8, in the URL field, adjacent to that , select "browse for schema file" and select the XSD which you have exported from B2B Editor.
say next and finish, you will be good to go.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Problem with reciver file adapter in the content conversion.

I have starnge situation where the fileds in the file created after the content conversion are center aligned.
Can someone let me know how to make it right aligned?
For eg, i have a field with Char(6) in the file it looks as follows:
1.23 ->    | 1.23 |
10.23 -> |10.23 |
100.23-> |100.23|
I want it to be like this :
1.23 ->    | 1.23|
10.23 -> | 10.23|
100.23-> |100.23|
Please let me know ASAP as its a critical issue for the customer.
Warm Regards,
Nilesh Kumar

Hi Nilesh,
if You are using file content conversion on Sender Adapter, then do you java mapping between your two interfaces(sender and receiver)
use java.text methods for formatting the values according to your requirement.
first check the java API 1.4.2....
with in that check java.text.* methods
Also there will be lot of examples availble on internet on this. Check online.
Also check this link this will definitely solve issue
[http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~vaucher/Java/tutorials/Formatting.html]
Sample code on this link
   double x = 1.0 / 7;
   for (int n = 1; n<5; n++)
      System.out.println( "1/7 : " + format( x, n, -6)
                                    + format( x, n, 10));
Thanks

Root_VT(structure) is second field of Root_IS but act a a Parent Stucture for fields POY and PON,
Root_VR(structure) is a field of Root_VT but act as a Parent structure for Fields POL and SF.Means we have three structres Root_IS and under this we have Root_VT and under this we have Root_VR
__My targert strucure is as follows:__
DT_Target
>Root_IS.......................................0.to..1
Key..............................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
DC..............................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
>Root_VT....................................0..to..unbounded
Key..............................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
POY....................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
PON....................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
>Root_VR............................0..to..unbounded
Key..............................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
POL.............................0..to..1.............................xsd:string
SF----
0..to..1.............................xsd:string
>Root_ZS............................0..to..1
Key..............................................0..to..1.............................xsd:string

Here DT_Target is data type for file reciever.In which i need to configure reciever communication channel with file content conversion parameters.File needs to be generated is of fixed length.Root_IS,Root_VT,Root_ZS are sructure on same level as a first level subelements of DT_Target and Root_VR sructure is under Root_VT.
Root_IS have fileds: key,DC: Root_VT have Fields :Key,POY,PON:Root_VR have fields:Key,POL,SF and Root_ZS have Fields:Key and Counts.
I tried to Configure File Content Conversion Parameters on reciever Comm Channel but getting comm channel error as follows:----

File content parameters i used as follows:
Root_IS.fieldNames                                      : Key,DC
Root_IS.fieldFixedLengths                           :(as per length mentioned)
Root_IS.endSeparator                                 :'nl'
Root_VT.fieldNames                                   :Key,POY,PON
Root_VT.fieldFixedLengths                        :(as per length mentioned)
Root_VT.endSeparator                              :'nl'
Root_VR.fieldNames                                  :Key,POL,SF
Root_VR.fieldFixedLengths                       :(as per length mentioned)
Root_VR.endSeparator                             :'nl'
Root_ZS.fieldNames                                 :Key,Count
Root_ZS.fieldFixedLengths                      :(as per length mentioned)
Root_ZS.endSeparator                            :'nl'

File/FTP adapter, outbound channel, content conversion, UTF-8 (Unicode)?
