Moving of flat file from the application server after upload.

Hi All,
I am uploading data from a flat file placed on the application server by a BDC program.
After the BDC has created the session i want to transfer the flat file from that folder to another folder on the application server by changing the name of the flatfile.
Can any one suggest the best way of doing this particular scenario?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Satish Nair.

Here is a sample program.
report zrich_0001.
data: d1 type localfile value '/usr/sap/TST/SYS/Data1.txt',
      d2 type localfile value '/usr/sap/TST/SYS/Data2.txt'.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      rec(20) type c,
      end of itab.
data: wa(20) type c.
start-of-selection.
open dataset d1 for input in text mode.
if sy-subrc = 0.
    do.
      read dataset d1 into wa.
      if sy-subrc <> 0.
        exit.
      endif.
      itab-rec = wa.
      append itab.
    enddo.
endif.
close dataset d1.
open dataset d2 for output in text mode.
loop at itab.
    transfer itab to d2.
endloop.
close dataset d2.
delete dataset d1.

Creating a flat file in the IDOC format

Hi everybody,
Need help.....urgently. Can somebody please tell me how to create a flat file in the IDOC format? I am creating a bill of lading/Documentary payments (EDI 858) and can't figure out a way to write the data generate through the report in a flat file in IDOC format. My deadline is right around the corner and I need help.
Thanks,
M

Hi Minal,
I still don't understand your question.
So, you have a report which selects data and puts it into an internal table. This part looks fine.
You want to create a flat file? Ok, to create a flat file on the application server then use the commands OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER, and CLOSE DATASET. To create a flat file on the presentation server then use the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD (or the GUI class, I forgets its name for the moment).
In both cases you should build up an internal table which has the exact structure required for your (EDIFACT?) EDI message, and then use the appropriate method to write the file.
If the following steps are manual then there is nothing more for you to do.
I don't see any need to use Idoc technology, or make any reference to it in your solution.
I hope that helps. If not, please be more specific when asking your questions.

ABEND while creating file in the application server

Dear All,
Please provide the solution for the following.
REPORT ZMAIN.
SELECT BKORM UP TO 1000
       EXTRACT ext.
ENDSELECT
Imagine, now the extract file having 1000 Entries
Reading the above EXTRACT file
LOOP .
         submit ZSUB.
ENDLOOP.
End OF Main Program----
REPORT ZSUB.
SELECT BKORM UPTO 500
       EXTRACT ext.
ENDSELECT
Here for each submit of the ZSUB, it is creating one EXTRACT file in the application server. When it reaching to create 999, it is going for ABEND.
Can anybody provide the solution to avoid going for ABEND .
Is there any restriction to create extract files in the applciation server?
Thanks in advance.

Instead of select/endselect, try to use a loop with internal tables..
There's no limit in the extracts you can do..

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

<TOMCAT_HOME>\webapps\abc
2> Use the java archive command 'jar' to bundle up your application:
jar -cvf abc.war *

How to Rename the file in the application server?

Hi friends.
How to Rename the file in the application server? via abap program so pls kindly let me know thr any function module is there.
Thanks
With Regards
I.Muthukumar.

Dont think there is any quick fix way of doin this, however you can use the following sequence of dataset ops to get what you need:
READ DATASET - retrieve contents of current AS file
TRANSFER DATASET - create a new file on AS with the contents read in READ
DELETE DATASET - delete the original file on AS (if TRANSFER above is successful)
Hope this approach helps.
Cheers,
Aditya

How to create Default Schema from within the application

Hi friends
I am creating users using the following within my application using this syntax
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER
(:P124_USER_ID, :P124_USER_NAME,:P124_USER_FIRST_NAME,:P124_USER_LAST_NAME,' ',:P124_USER_EMAIL_ID,'xxxx');
END;
The default workspace for the user is set as blanks. I would like to set it to be the default workspace as per the current logged in user.
Can you help me with the syntax for this
thank you in advance
Laxmi

Laxmi,
The subject of the post is "How to create Default Schema from within the application".
But your question asks how to set the "default workspace" for a newly created user.
Those are different questions and not the ones I think you need answered.
Let me answer this question "How can you set the default schema for an account when creating the account and set it to the same value used for the default schema attribute of the administrator account used to authenticate to the currently running application?".
In the apex_util.create_user call use named parameter notation and fetch the information about the currently logged-in user first, e.g.,declare
l_workspace               varchar2(256);
l_user_name               varchar2(256);
l_first_name              varchar2(256);
l_last_name               varchar2(256);
l_web_password            varchar2(256);
l_email_address           varchar2(256);
l_start_date              varchar2(256);
l_end_date                varchar2(256);
l_employee_id             varchar2(256);
l_allow_access_to_schemas varchar2(256);
l_person_type             varchar2(256);
l_default_schema          varchar2(256);
l_groups                  varchar2(256);
l_developer_role          varchar2(256);
l_description             varchar2(256);
begin
apex_util.fetch_user (
p_user_id                  => apex_util.get_current_user_id,
p_workspace                => l_workspace,
p_user_name                => l_user_name,
p_first_name               => l_first_name,

apex_util.create_user(

p_user_name      => :P124_USER_NAME,
p_first_name     => :P124_USER_FIRST_NAME,

How do upload a file to the application server into a directory?

hi to all,
i want to upload file into the database..i need upload the file into the application server and save it to a directory..is there any way?where i can read about this?any information?
ashwiny

Hello,
First, we need to determine the terms we are using, in order to avoid confusion. We (including the documentation) are using "upload" to describe storing the file on the server, and "download" to pull it from the server into local machine.
You can use the "File Browse" item to upload any file you need from your local machine and into a database table. The default APEX configuration (in the dads.conf file) stored the uploaded file in a table called wwv_flow_file_objects$. In your application, you can access this table using a view called APEX_APPLICATION_FILES.
After you uploaded a file, any user can access it, using the download procedure described in the reference I gave you. The download procedure gives you an option to store the download file anywhere you need, using the "Open/Save" dialog box.
I believe this is covering everything you need. If you still having problems, please consider posting the relevant application pages on apex.oracle.com. It will be easier to understand and help you.
