How to configure File Adapter (Read)..?

Hi all,
While configuring the Read Adapter in BPEL 11g i am getting not reading any data from given location. But my location are correct.. So please how to configure File Read adapter and give any URL for this ... Thank you

Hi all,
The file adapter it consists many operations like
1: Read
2:Write
3:Synchronous Read
4:ListFiles
So you are asking about Read operation
First you take one File Adapter-->Select Read Operation--->Give Incomming file Location ( In local system you can give like C:/temp/NewDir Or Unix Envornment like you can give /temp/NewDir)
After that you can give file Name like wich format it's incomming file name like CSV.txt or CSV.xml after you give Polling Intervels second or Mintued or Hour.You can select Native format or Define service Later once configure all those things the file adapter configration is done . If you have any doubts in file configrigation please go for the below link...........

  • How to configure File Adapter along with OS command option

    Hello,
    I want to configure a scenario using File Adapter with OS command option.
    How to use that option in channel configuration of File Adapter.
    What is the default path where it is actually runs this OS command?
    Thanks,

    There are two ways to use the Os command in the file adapter.
    Lets talk about the sender File Adapter.
    First: Run operative system Before Message Processing
    Whenever any operation needs to be performed uppon the source file Just before XI picks it up.
    e.g. Calculate any hash code, backup the file to a given location, create a log at os level, etc...
    ... After Message Processing
    After Xi has processed the message, you can trigger a new os level command:
    e.g. Trigger a mail, check if the archiving was successful, etc.
    > What is the default path where it is actually runs this OS command?
    >
    Theres no default path, you assign the desired path in the Comm Channel configuration.

  • How to configure SFTP Adapter in XI?

    Hi All,
    How to configure SFTP adapter in XI?, It would be great if anyone sends a step-by-step documentation on the same.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    About SFTP .
    1) SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)
    "SSH File Transfer Protocol" or SFTP is a network protocol that provides file transfer and manipulation functionality over any reliable data stream. It is typically used with the SSH-2 protocol to provide secure file transfer. SFTP encrypts the session, preventing the casual detection of username, password or anything that is being transmitted. One key benefit to SFTP is its ability to handle multiple secure file transfers over a single encrypted pipe. By using a single encrypted pipe, there are fewer holes in the corporate firewall.
    SFTP:
    As per the latest SAP PI/XI support pack, it does not support SFTP via File Adapter.
    So alternative approach to cater this requirement from XI is to make use of Unix Script at OS level to transfer the files from/to third-party systems.
    Inbound Interface - i.e. third-party system ->XI->SAP: 
    File is transferred to a folder in SAP XI landscape from the third-party legacy system using UNIX Script with secured protocol. Once the file is ready in the XI landscape, File Adapter will poll this directory and file is picked up by NFS protocol.
    Outbound Interface – i.e. SAP->XI->third-party system: 
    XI is responsible for writing a file into a folder in the XI landscape. These files are transferred to the third-party system by executing UNIX scripts with secured protocol i.e. via sFTP.
    Pre-Requisites: 
    Public key should be exchanged between external systems and the PI system.
    UNIX shell script has to be developed and scheduled.
    Advantages: 
    Highly Secured.
    Ability to handle multiple secure file transfers over a single encrypted pipe .By using a single encrypted pipe, there are fewer holes in the corporate firewall.
    Disadvantages:
    Two-Step process i.e. XI>Temporary folder>External System and vice-versa
    Files have to be temporarily stored in XI server.
    Multiple failure points i.e. XI and Unix script execution
    Maintenance of an external UNIX script.
    Difficulty in monitoring the execution of the shell script as it cannot be monitored thru XI.
    Need to generate keys and install it in the SFTP site as a pre-requisite i.e. SFTP clients must install keys on the server.
    SFTP uses keys rather than certificates. This means that it can't take advantage of the "chains of trust" paradigm facilitated through Certificate Authorities.
    Files from the XI server should be deleted/archived in a periodic manner to increase the disc space so that it will increase the performance.
    Note: UNIX shell Script can be executed as a background job ‘or' can be triggered from SAP XI through OS command at File adapter level.

    Kishore

    Hey Kishore,
    In order to create a structure you need to use the file with convertion mode on the sending communication channel of the file adapter.
    check the link for the needed configuration paramters.
    If the structure is more complexed you can use the Contetnt master(CM) from itemfield which allows to ceate XML file from complex flat files and more.

  • File Adapter : read XML file with data validation and file rejection ?

    Hello,
    In order to read a XML file with the file adapter, I have defined a XSD that I have imported to my project.
    Now the File Adapter reads the file correctly but it does not give an error when:
    - the data types are not valid. Ex: dateTime is expected in a node and a string is provided
    - the XML file has invalid attributes.
    How can I manage error handling for XML files ?
    Should I write my own Java XPath function to validate the file after is processed ? (here is an example for doing this : http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/XML/Q_21058568.html)
    Thanks.

    one option is to specify validateXML on the partnerlink (that describes the file adapter endpoint) such as shown here
    <partnerLinkBinding name="StarLoanService">
    <property name="wsdlLocation"> http://<hostname>:9700/orabpel/default/StarLoan/StarLoan?wsdl</property>
    <property name="validateXML">true</property>
    </partnerLinkBinding>

  • [File-Adapter] Reading not finished files

    Hey,
    my sender file adapter reading files which are not finished yet.
    The files are created by an ABAP programm. The creation could
    take some seconds. If the file adapter polls while creation is not
    finished, we have a problem.
    The flag "Process Read-Only Files" is not set, so the ABAP programm
    doesn't seem to set the file to read only.
    Is there a way to check (e.g. with an operating system command) if the
    file is processed completly?
    For example I could check if the date of creation is higher than 10 minutes
    or something like this.
    Any other ideas?
    thanks
    chris

    What is the file adapter option you are using?
    If NFS, you have the option "Milliseconds check before modification" that will prevent the file from being picked up till they are completly written.
    If FTP, then when the file is being written to the ftp folder you should have the option to use temporary files option

  • How to configure Seeburger adapter

    Hi All,
              Can you pls guide me on how to configure adapter? and also why do we need mercerator and converstion agent tools along with see burger adapter?

    Can someone pls put light on the messageflow when seeburger and these converstion agents are used?
    Regards,
    Ashish

    Hi Ashish,
    It is similar like other adapters once it is supplied. But take care about security/firewalls settings.
    and also why do we need mercerator and converstion agent tools along with see burger adapter?
    >>>Not a mandatory to use along with seeburger.
    Can someone pls put light on the messageflow when seeburger and these converstion agents are used?Can't find any doc on how to configure seeburger adapter!!!
    >>>Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.
    These transformed EDI-XML messages are then converted to EDI specific format using the Seeburger's BIC(Business Integration Converter)adapter. In addition, Seeburger provides adapters like AS2,FTP(EDI specific) and so on to route these EDI messages to external EDI Partners.
    Seeburger EDI Adapter leverages SAP XI's Adapter Framework. This Adapter is used to perform conversion between EDI and XML format. It also provides some canned EDI layouts and the ability to build your own. It is used to transfer the EDI message via HTTP or AS2 protocols.
    The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to do the following:
    1. define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
    2. using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
    3. create a one to one mapping between input en output.
    4. export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
    5. generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.

  • How to make BPEL File Adapter read only new files?

    Hello
    we have BPEL processes that define to run from bpel component - file adatper-
    when a file come into location that it is path on the linux server . the bpel start run when "File Adapter" bpel component recognize that new file come to the location. its PollingFrequency define to 5. property name="DeleteFile" value="false" so the files remaine there.
    we want to migrate the bpel to new SOA version so we did export and deploy to new SOA Domain.
    the location of the file adapter is the same.
    but when the BPEL processes deployed its start to run for all the files that are in this location- that the file adapter define on .
    even the original soa tooks those files and start the BPEL processes for each one of them. also the new SOA that we did deploy to the BPEL processes take those files even if they are very old.
    we want the file adatper we take only new files . the start point is the time when we do deploy to the process so if we do deploy in 10:00 am we dont want this bpel will take files from 9:00 or earlier time
    Please help , how we can do this?
    Thanks

    thank you

  • How to: Sender File Adapter to dinamically read all subfolders of a folder

    Here is the scenario:
    -Interface:  A file to file interface.
    -Objective: The idea is to move files from a file server to another file server.
    -Master Source Folder: ...\OUTPUT\
    -Master Destination Folder: .....\INPUT\
    Interface example
    -Source Folder: ...\OUTPUT\INTERFACE1
    -Destination Folder: .....\INPUT\INTERFACE1
    The idea is that the PI interface must read all the subfolders inside ..\OUTPUT\ and then move the files found to the corresponding folder in the target.
    What we want to achive is to be able to add a new source folder i.e ...\OUTPUT\INTERFACE2 without having to modify the sender File adapter.
    Actual status: Dynamic determination of the destination folder is already done, but source folders are statically defined in the sender file adapter.
    Can this be done? Perhaps using a Bean Module or something?
    Regards.
    Mariano Billinghurst.

    This is great! In the off chance anyone else is trying to do this, this is also useful if you have Papers and you want to switch to Mendeley. Papers keeps PDFs all organized by year and then author so the PDFs are all nested in subfolders. If you option-click the triangle next to the Papers folder, it will then show all the PDFs. Select All and then drag over the whole thing into Mendeley. I just imported my entire collection in under a minute. Glad I looked this up!

  • How to get file name from file adapter (Read Operation)

    Hi All,
    I am reading files from local location, in jca file i gave filename property =*.* ( which reads all files), and now I want to read the incoming file name inside bpel and I want to copy the file name to some variable. Is this possible?

    Yes, its possible.
    In your receive activity,set below property in its properties tab:
    <bpelx:property name="jca.file.FileName" variable="FileName"/>
    Before that make sure to create a variable "FileName" of string type.
    Whatever file your file adapter will read,its name will be stored in this variable.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to use File Adapter Receiver to write attachments

    Hi,
    i have a scenario, in which our own XInotes adapter sends an XIMessage from an IBM Lotus Notes database into XI. This XIMessage contains an XML document as application main document and several PDF files as additional attachments 
    On the receiver side, i must use a File Adapter to write both the XML documents and the PDF attachments into a directory.
    The problem is i don't know how to use the file adapter receiver to write the attachments. In the Channel Monitoring, i can see that all PDF files are transferred to the file receiver. But the file adapter writes only the XML document into the directory.
    I've also tried the AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean, but it can only swap one PDF file into the application payload. And the file name must be hard coded in the module configuration as swap.KeyName.
    Could anyone give me any ideas?
    thanks a lot in advance

    hi,
    receiver file adapters do not supprt attachments.
    Only File Sender adapter is capable of handling attachments not the receiver.

    Configuring the sender FILE adapter
    The sender file adapter is configured to pick the normal payload (file1.xml), which is specified in the File
    access parameters, and the additional image file (file1.jpg) that is to be sent as an attachment is configured
    under the Additional File(s) as shown in the screenshot below. The file type would still remain binary.
    Since, by default, XI sends payload and attachments in XML format, we need to call two beans, namely the
    MessageTransformBean and the PayloadSwapBean to help us is transforming the content to jpeg format
    and also change the file extension.
    The PayloadSwapBean module is used to replace the application payload of the XI message that holds the
    data with another payload which is appended to the message as an attachment. In our case, the payload
    would be file1.xml whereas the attachment would be file1.jpg
    The swap module is denoted in our scenario with the module key ‘swap’. It has two parameters from the
    MIME header.
