FM to view files in Applicatin server

Hi all,
My requirement is i want to see the list of files which are avialable on the application server in a particular folder. Like we have Directory_list_files we get the list of files in the presentation server. Similarlly is there any FM which displays the list of folders
Thanx in advance,
M.Ramana Murthy

What you want it here,
This will list all files and eill open the file when double clicked.

Viewing files on application server

Hi,
Does anyone knows any path or transaction thorough which I can view all the files on application server ?
Thanks.

Tushar.

Hi
Try this
DATA FNAME(60).
FNAME = '/tmp/myfile'.
OPEN DATASET 'myfile'.
OPEN DATASET FNAME.
This example works as long as your R/3 System is running under UNIX. The program opens the file "myfile" in the directory in which the R/3 System is running, and also opens the file "myfile" in directory "/tmp". However, you would have to change the filename for other operating systems. For example, for OpenVMS, you could write the following:
FNAME = '[TMP]myfile.BIN'
OPEN DATASET 'myfile.BIN'.
When you access sequential files on the application server using the following statements
OPEN DATASET
TRANSFER
DELETE DATASET
the system automatically checks against table SPTH. This table regulates general read and write access from ABAP to files, and whether files should be included in security procedures.
In table SPTH, you can prevent read or write access to generically-specified files, independently of the R/3 authorization concept. For all other files (that is, those for which read and write access is allowed according to table SPTH), you can use the R/3 authorization concept to check authorizations. To enable you to do this, you can specify authorization groups in table SPTH for program-independent user authorization checks.
SPTH contains the following columns for this purpose:
PATH
This column contains generic filenames. This means that the files on the application server to which an entry in this column applies, retain the attributes specified in the remaining columns of the line.
Suppose SPTH contains the following three entries in the column PATH:
/tmp
/tmp/myfile
The entries are then valid as follows:
First line: All files on the application server apart from the path /tmp
Second line: All files on the application server in the path /tmp apart from the file /tmp/myfile
Third line: The application server file /tmp/myfile
SAVEFLAG
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column are included in security procedures.
FS_NOREAD
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column may not be accessed at all from ABAP. This flag overrides all user authorizations. If you set FS_NOREAD, FS_NOWRITE is also automatically set.
If the flag is not set, it is possible to access the files from ABAP if the authorization checks are successful (see also the FSBRGRU column and Authorization Check for Particular Programs and Files).
FS_NOWRITE
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column may not be accessed for changing from ABAP. This flag overrides all user authorizations.
If the flag is not set, it is possible to change the files from ABAP if the authorization checks are successful (see also the FSBRGRU column and Authorization Check for Particular Programs and Files).
FSBRGRU
This column contains the names of authorization groups.
An authorization group corresponds to the first field (RS_BRGRU) of the authorization object S_PATH. You can use the second field of the authorization object S_PATH (ACTVT) to check whether the user has authorization to read (value 3) or change (value 2) the files in he authorization group.
Entries in FSBRGRU specify groups of files on the application server. You can control the access to files by assigning authorizations for the authorization object S_PATH.
Unlike authorization checks using the authorization object S_DATASET (see Authorization Checks for Particular Programs and Files), the authorization check against the authorization object S_PATH is independent of the ABAP program used to access the files. Furthermore, the check is not restricted to individual files. Instead, it extends to all of the generically-specified files in the PATH column.
If there is no entry in the column FSBRGRU, the files in the column PATH are not assigned to an authorization group, and there is no authorization check against the authorization object S_PATH.
If the automatic check for a file access fails, a runtime error occurs.
Suppose the table SPTH contains the following entries:
PATH
SAVEFLAG
FS_NOREAD
FS_NOWRITE
FSBRGRU
X
X
/tmp
/tmp/files
X
FILE
With these settings, ABAP programs cannot access any files on the application server apart from those in the path (/tmp).
All ABAP programs can read from and write to the files in that path.
Only users with authorizations for the authorization group FILE can use ABAP program that read from or write to files in the path /tmp/files. These files are also included in the security procedure.
With the above table entries, the following program extract would cause a runtime error for any user:
DATA: FNAME(60).
FNAME = '/system/files'.
OPEN DATASET FNAME FOR OUTPUT.
Or you can use transaction AL11

Amit.

Can't view files on remote server

I have CS3 on my primary machine and CS4 on my newer imac. I am trying to recreate my sites on the imac. I can connect to the server when testing but when I when I try to view repository I can see anything. I keep getting a prompt to set repository settings. I click on the link and enter the ip but I still can't see what's on the server. I only have to upload one file but since I can't see anything, I ended up uploading the entire site again. What info am I entering that I haven't already entered for the site. GoDaddy is the hosting company if that matters. I downloaded their cheat sheet but I don't see anything about repository settings on it.

First define your Local site settings in DW CS4.
Once the Local Site folder is defined, you should be able to log-in to your Remote server and GET files from server.
If you plan to work on the site from 2 computers, use file check-in/check-out. Ensure that you check-out each time or you won't be able to access remote files from your other computer.

Can't view files with long file names?

Hi, Im using Mac OSX 10.3.9 and I have a problem viewing files on a server that have long file names (i.e over about 20 characters) they do not show up on my mac but when viewed on a PC computer they are all there. Strange thing is though I have another mac on the same network running exactly the same operating system and version and files with long name can be viewed on that system ?? it is some simple preference does anybody know? Any help would be much appreciated. thank you.

Hi, I tried accessing a test file that I have made up with a long name through a browser and through FTP and cannot see it on either one. I can however see it on the other Mac that I have access to that is running the same OS and version etc... and also this file can been viewed on the PC's that are around me....

How to view file on server.

Hello
I am developing a small client server application.Clients post comments about the application and these are stored in a file on the server.Its a standalone app.My question is if a client wants to view the file on server,how can i do that??

Open documents/files from Application Server in forms 6i

Hello All,
Our requirement is to open files that are in Application server( We do not want to upload them into database).
Is there a way to open this files from forms 6i.
I am wondering how the "View Output" or View log button works on the concurrent program submission form. Its the doing the same thing i.e pulling the file from Application server and showing up.
Please let me know if anyone has any ideas on how to get this done.
Thanks
Sunil

I assume you are using Forms 6i in web mode here. Then it is just a URL to the file if you properly map to a directory where you store the files:
web.show_document('http://...../myfile.pdf');
But it also looks like you are using Oracle Apps, so might want to ask it in the e-Business Suite.

To access pdf files from application server using web.show_document

Hello!
If my pdf file is copied in Oracle_home/forms90/java directory.Then using web.show_document i can access the pdf file.But I can't copy all the pdf files in /forms90/java directory.We have lacs of pdf files which I want to keep in my own directory.But my requirement is if my pdf file is in /home2/docs directory in (Linux application server) ie in my own directory where I store all the pdf files.Then web.show_document does not open the pdf file.It says page cannot be displayed.For that I think we have to configure the directory /home2/docs directory as a webserver.From otn I got something like forms90.conf file in application server where we have to set virtual directory mapping etc.If the pdf is in local machine then in orion-web.xml file we have to mention real path and save the file and shutdown oc4j instance and restart it again.I tried it.But it is not working.Can u give me step by step instructions to solve this problem.I found a few links in discussion forum.But is doesn't work out.My pdf file is in /home2/docs directory in Linux application server.Please treat it as urgent.
Regards
Jayashree

Hi Sandeepmsandy,
There is no available code sample for this scenario. You may write your own.
Step 1: Get pdf URL from sqlite database. Please refer to the following MSDN blog and see a code sample.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/robertgreen/archive/2012/11/13/using-sqlite-in-windows-store-apps.aspx. Note, you need to retarget the project to 8.1 and then get two sqlite packages from NuGet before building this sample.
Step 2: Use some special classes to get file from serer.
HttpWebRequest can help download small pdf files. For more information to see
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/de96a61c-e089-4595-8349-612be5d23ee6/download-file-with-httpwebrequest?forum=winappswithcsharp. It’s easy for use, but if you want to download the larger or many files, it’s recommend to use
BackgroundTransfer namespace. The classes in this namespace provide a power way to transfer files in the background. See a code sample from MSND.

Open hub error when generating file in application server

Hi, everyone.
I'm trying to execute an open hub destination that save the result as a file in the application server.
The issue is: in production environment we have two application servers, XYZ is the database server, and A01 is the application server. When I direct the open hub to save file in A01 all is working fine. But when I change to save to XYZ I´m getting the following error:
>>> Exception in Substep Start Update...
Message detail: Could not open file "path and file" on application server
Message no. RSBO214
When I use transaction AL11, I can see the file there in XYZ filesystem (with data and time correspondent to execution), but I can´t view the content and size looks like be zero.
Possible causes I already checked: authorization, disk space, SM21 logs.
We are in SAP BW 7.31 support package 6.
Any idea what could be the issue or where to look better?
Thanks and regards.
Henrique Teodoro

Hi, there.
Posting the resolution for this issue.
SAP support give directions that solved the problem. No matter in which server (XYZ or A01) I logon or start a process chains, the DTP job always runs in A01 server, and it causes an error since the directory doesn´t exist in server XYZ.
This occurs because DTP settings for background job was left blank. I follows these steps to solve the problem:
- open DTP
- go to "Settings for Batch Manager"
- in "Server/Host/Group on Which Additional Processes Should Run" I picked the desired server
- save
After that, no matter from where I start the open hub extraction, it always runs in specified server and saves the file accordingly.
Regards.

Please suggest solution for it?
Its urgent

I am trying to run the Applet in Tomcat server,
Could you post the code where you invoke the Applet? It sounds like you're saying you're trying to run the Applet as part of your server-side code. The other interpretation is that you are simply accessing the Applet through the browser that happens to be on the machine being used as the server.
Like I say, post the code that shows how you're trying to use the Applet "on the server".

Unable to open leopard files on windows server

Hi,
We had a mac which was on Leopard and saved files to the server
The file system we use is a Windows 2008 File Server, this has worked fine with leopard for years
However I understand that Leopard splits the files into resource forks - and that Lion has dropped support for these files.
That particular mac is now on Lion as we upgraded and encountering LOTS of issues
I unable to open or edit lots of the files as i believe chunks of the files are missing.
E.g an .eps file showed as 740KB on leopard - Viewing from a windows PC it was 730kb for the .eps and 10kb for the ._ resource fork.
Now that we are on the LION upgrade, we only see the .eps file and it is only 730kb. Information missing is things such as preview (quark), Font data, type of file, version number
Is there anyways to fix this? we have hundreds! of images, files etc created with leopard and now upgraded to lion they all have become useless!
Rejoining the resource forks and files together so that they are usable on lion
Thanks

You also may want to post this in the Lion forum, someone there may have some insight.

How can I display the front panel of the dinamically loaded VI on the cliente computer, the VI dinamically loaded contains files, I want to see the files that the server machine has, in the client machine

I can successfully view and control a VI remotly. However, the remote VI dinamically loads another VI, this VI loaded dinamically is a VI that allows open others VIs, I want to see the files that contains the server machine, in the client machine, but the front panel of the dinamic VI appears only on the server and not on the client, How can I display the fron panel with the files of the server machine of the dinamically loaded VI on the client computer?

I down loaded your files but could use some instructions on what needs run.
It seems that you are so close yet so far. You need to get the data on the server machine over to the client. I generally do this by doing a call by reference (on the client machine) of a VI that is served by the server. THe VI that executes on the server should pass the data you want to diplay via one of its output terminals. You can simply wire from this terminal (back on the client again) to an indicator of your choosing.
Now theorectically, I do not think that there is anything that prevents use from getting the control refnum of the actual indicator (on the server) of the indicator that has the data, and read its "Value" using a property node. I have never tried this idea but it seems t
hat all of the parts are there. You will need to know the name of the VI that holds the data as well as the indicator's name. You will also have to serve all VI's. This is not a good idea.

Path does not exit - While trying to save file on SharPoint Server 2013 from client machine

Hi,
I have installed Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise Edition on my testing Lab environment (On VM Workstation 10) on Windows Server 2012 with SQL server 2012, I can access all files stored at SharePoint Server from any physical machine, I can share
a single file among different people to work simultaneously, but here i stuck on saving any file from client machine to directly on SharePoint Server, Attached is the snap shot, whenever I try to save any file directly It says Path Does Not Exist, If I drag
and drop any file directly to SharePoint I do not see any error message.
I read from different posts that I need to Enable Desktop Experience Feature on Server 2012, which I installed but no positive result gained :(
I will appreciate for any possible help?
