Selection of TCP/IP Or FILE Port

Hi Experts,
I have one Doubt While We are doinng IDOC To File Scenario.
We have to Create Port In WE21 of Type TCP /IP.
If We Select the Type As FILE Means What wil Happend.
Please Explain me little bit on this.
Regards
Sesh

Hi
The Port can be a File Port (IDocs will be saved in this folder)

Ports are use to define the way data is send (or received) from another partner (e.g. other system).
- Port type Transactional RFC defines an RFC Destination.
- Port type File defines a file and directory (and a function module that does the record handling for your output file)
- Port type CPI-C defines an SAP R/2 system and transmission parameters.
- Port type Internet, allthough in the system is no longer supported (See SAP note 315083).
- Port type ABAP-PI defines a function module that will do the transmission. This is often used if you want total control over the sending (or receiving) process.
- XML defines a file and directory (and a function module) specific to XML formatted files. The XML-HTTP leaves out the file and can transmit directly to a website location

Unable To Select Markers For Bookmarked AAC Files In iTunes7

Previously if you have used ChapterTool to add index points to an .m4a to make it an .m4b, now iTunes7 considers it an audiobook only and places them under Audiobooks (renaming the file back to an m4a and reimporting places it under Music by the way) will not allow you to see or select those index points anymore. iPods still show the markers during playback. If you burn a playlist containing such a file, it will burn correctly so someone forgot to add that control to the iTunes interface. I hope Apple will fix this.
Gapless playback is going to take a while to iron out for iTunes and iPods so this is still the only true way to have gapless playback with compressed files on an iPod and being able to see and select the markers in the file in iTunes should be a given.

Hello Arvind,
There is no need to start the MDIS (Import server) if you are importing the data manually.you just open the import manager, login into the repository and select type as XML as per your case and select the remote system (it depends on your requirement) and select the port on which your xml files resides.and enter in the import manager then map you data accordingly and you can import into the repository.
when you want to automate the process for importing the data in repository then you will need to Start the import Server. In that case import server automatically pick the file from the ready port folder and also set the property in console as the processing type is Automatic.
Hope this will help you and clear your doubt.

File Port with Outbound Trigger

I am exporting idoc through a file port in we21. I have the outbound trigger set up as follows.
I have Autom. start possible selected
RFC destination SERVER_EXEC -> which points to /sapmnt/DEV/exe/rfcexec to execute a local UNIX script.
I am using a phyical directory of /tmp
and a script of zip_file.
When I execute RSEOUT00 i see the idoc file being create on the filesystem, but the UNIX script is not getting executed.
Does anyone of any ideas on why my trigger is not working?
Thanks
Skip Ford

Hi,
I don't think IDoc port can be used to trigger UNIX script other than to tell the system where to output the data.
Why don't you schedule a job with two steps (execute RSEOUT00 and trigger UNIX script) and run periodically?

File port query File transfer from SAP R/3 to Webmethods using Unix Script

SAP drops the files in the /sapio/ directory and triggers an unix script using File port partner destination.
Unix script will perform a secure copy of files to Webmethods server.
If in unix script, error occurs then an RFC function will be called to send an error notification to a person.
Queries
1) How is the unix script triggered using the File port partner destination ?
2) What is the unix command to invoke a report which sends the error notification mail ?
3) Does SCP command to copy files to webmethods work , if the unix script is placed in /sapio/ directory ? Or whether
any connection need to be established between SAP and Webmethods server ?

Hello,
Since you want to transfer Article Master, it should be a Retail System. So you should use Message Type ARTMAS. For fullbuild, you can use transaction WDBM and for changes, you can use WDBU. For changes, you can enable change pointers for required fields using BD64.
Thanks,

How to link individual picker view selections to download an individual file from a website or other location such as dropbox using Xcode?

Alright, the question I have has to deal with how to link an app to a website to download files. How, or is it even possible to link individual picker view selections to download an individual file from a website or other location such as dropbox using xcode. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but if anyone can help or can send a link to a place that can, I would greatly appreciate it!

I am not getting anywhere with deploying my application or
applet.
I have set up my bc4j project. It contains all my VO info,
links, application module. (proj a)
I then have another project with DbInfo in it(has all my rowset
info), Multiple Frames, and my Applet.java file.
Actually I have an Applet.java file and a Application.java file
because I was seeing if both/either worked. Anyway they seem the
same, except for that extra window that comes up when you run the
applet.
I follow the steps in the oracle directions (from earlier post).
And all seems ok. But at ---->
[*] Select the subdirectory under myhtml where your applet's HTML
file
is located, and enter the directory path of the 'staging'
directory you
created in step 3 above, if different from the default.</li>
[*]Select the HTML files that JDeveloper created to run your
applet.</li>
[*]Select all of the Java source files in your project that make
up the
applet.</li>
I have no HTML file associated with my applet, at least that I
know of.
So do I need to create one, or should it of been done
automatically.
Also, I trying to figure out what will be the best way to deploy
my project. Applet or stand alone application is what my first
choices have been so far. I have read that there is some issues
with applets being served from a different server than the
database. So a stand alone application was my front runner, but
I haven't gotten either way to work yet.

Using browser javascript to copy selected text from a pdf file opened in Air app.

I have posted this question on reader forum as well, but I think it is more suited here...
I am trying to create a note-taking application in air. I want to extract selected text from pdf file as a string object or to the clipboard.
Obviously, all pdfs in my local storage will not be scripted to recieve postMessages and act accordingly, and that is not practical either. So, my problem is, how can I copy the selected text in the pdf file (opened as an object in htmlloader within my Air app) to clipboard or directly in another control by say clicking a button in air application? I suppose, this is possible using javascript, however, I don't know which reader methods are exposed to the wrapper htmlloader control. In short, I want to execute app.execMenuItem("Copy") command through htmlloader javascript. Any alternate solutions are also welcome.
This is similar to passing inbuilt commands/methods/functions (of adobe reader) to pdf-reader plugin embedded in a webpage via javascript. This is possible in IE where the pdf is rendered as activex object, and hence JSObject interface of pdf document/reader is accessible to the browser javascript. I have also read that this same JSObject is accessible to VB as interface for IAC, so as the Air is Adobe's own product, I was wondering if equivalent of JSObject is accessible to htmlloader control as well.
Thanks in advance...
Mits

Thank you Thom for your reply...
from
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/javascript.html
...Through JavaScript extensions, the viewer application and its plug-ins expose much of their functionality to document authors, form designers, and plug-in developers...
As it is explicitly mentioned, that the functionality of adobe reader are exposed for plugin development, I thought someone here might have used external javascript to execute some safe methods in adobe reader. The functionality (i.e. external javascript interface-JSObject) is already available for VB programmers to develop IAC. Further, the Acrobat SDK example called "AcroPDFinHML" shows how one can embed a pdf-reader in a html page and execute some safe methods (like gotonextpage(), zooming etc.) in IE as ActiveX plugin. I have checked it myself for adobe reader 9, and it works perfectly, so there is no security issue as such to implement the same for another browser (like in my case, the htmlloader control in flex/air app).
I intend to create a note taking application in air, where it is very much required that I should be able to copy selected text from various pdf documents, that are open in my app, and subsequently paste/collect/save the collected notes and process them afterwords (offcourse, from the pdfs that allow me copying text). However, it is not happening for me here. As the pdfs are opened through adobe reader plugin, it does not register the copy command executed by my air app. It registers the system level copy command (by keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C), but my air app has no way to execute the system level copy command programmatically. So I am kind of stuck here...
Thanks again for your reply. Having known what am I intend to accomplish, any other (may be alternative) solutions will be appreciated nonetheless...

Dynamic read of file for File Port

As per our project requirement have to use File Port to pick a set of IDOC Flat files from a given directory. The File Port only allows us to pick a file with a specific given name and does not allow us to pull file with a pattern for .eg. We can pull a file abcd.txt but cannot pull something like abc.txt. Our requirement is to pull abc.txt using the File Port.
If anyone has any idea about this, or any past experience with File Port in this regard, then please respond at the earliest.
We have created the file port with follwoing parameters:
Unchecked the Unicode Format System Setting
For the Inbound File:
Function Module: EDI_PATH_CREATE_CLIENT_DOCNUM
Directory is: A valid directory path
File Name: abcd.txt

Hi,
According to me, while using the automatic syndication through ports, it is not possible to change the filename that IDOC flat file generates.

Why cannot I copy selected text from a pdf file opened in Adobe Reader XI?

Hi all,
I had a problem when I tried to copy some selected text on a pdf file([Linux.System.Programming(2nd,2013.5)].Robert.Love.文字版.pdf) , which was opened in Adobe Reader XI as below (non-English version):
The error's text could be primarily translated as "An error occured when copied to clipboard. Internal Error." I'm not sure about the reason of this. I guess it is a problem or bug related to operating system or Adobe Reader XI. I had this problem when I used other versions of Adobe Reader though I cannot remember the exact number of versions now.
The version of XI I'm using is 11.0.0. The operating system is XP SP3.
As I was writing this question, the problem disappeared and I cannot reproduce it again now.
Could anyone help explain why the error message appearred or why the problem disappearred? If there is referrence provided, that would be finer. Thank you.

"Try Selecting a Different Printer or File Type" Error - iPad2 - Officejet Pro 8600 - ePrint error

Greetings...
I just got an Officejet Pro 8600 and I've been trying to get web pages to print using HP ePrint from my iPad 2 (iOS 7.0.6). I go into the ePrint app, go to web page of choice, and then click on my printer option to print. It renders on screen and then throws out the following error:
"Try Selecting a Different Printer or File Type" "Officejet Pro 8600 [5124FC] doesn't support this file type."
I can use ePrint from the iPad to print pictures from camera roll.
This only is problematic when I try to print web pages (I tried amazon.com for test).
I have no problems doing this from my iPhone...only the iPad.
I've tried rebooting device and trying again....same thing.
Anybody know how to fix this? I really want to be able to print web pages from my iPad.
Thanks in advance...
Possie

Hello Possie,
Thank you for the update. I have to say I'm surprised and disappointed that the uninstall and reinstall did not resolve the issue, especially since you can print the page from your iPhone.
I have spent some time researching this and working with my colleagues in HP's Cloud Services and we have a couple of suggestions/questions.
Do you get the same error when you try to print the web page using Apple's AirPrint feature?
Please ensure the iPad is connect to your home wireless network and try to print again.
Please try changing the settings in the ePrint app before printing the web page. Please ensure that the paper quality is set to normal (see screen shot below) and that the paper size is set to letter (see 2nd screen shot below).
Please let us know how it goes.

How to copy/send text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port

Hi Frdns,
I am working on one design, actually my requirement as follows
I am receiving financial information document from Banks, which is in the form of BIA2 message format, it looks like text file. This information needs to be sending to SAP ECC system.
I identified some approaches to full fill the requirement
1)Using Conversion agent/or third party tools to convert BIA2 message in to XML, then using PI I will pick up the XML message, convert it in to IDoc.
2)Without any conversion I will copy the same file (original BIA2 message) in to SAP ECC file port, in this case no conversion required, calling some program I will schedule it.
I am looking forward t implement the second approach because it saves lot of money to my client.
Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
What is the best approach to copy the BIA message text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port.??
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raja,
>>Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
Yes you can do this copy, the only restriction that can happen is the file size.. If you are sure that the fiel will be of few MB at the max then you can use the Configuration part alone and copy it to ECC folder. For doing this you need the following:
1. Sender agreement (mention the sender interface as anything XYZ)
2. Sender communication channel. Pick the file in binary mode
3. Receiver determination (keep both the sender and receiver service as same)
4. Interface Detemiantion (dont specify any mapping and keep the receiver interface name as XYZ)
5. Create receiver agreement (with same service and interface)
6. Use file adapter here

How to create an XML File Port in we21

Hi firends,
Can any one help me in creating the XML FILE PORT
Its Urgent
Thanks
Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
Directory
The file is uniquely identified via the directory ("path") and their names.
For IDoc files you may also use a "logical directory", which you assign in transaction FILE dependent on operating system "physical" directories.
Outbound file
There you can specify a fixed name for the file,
Thanks

File Port Not Picking Up File

Hello All,
I'm trying to get a file sent from an external system to SAP. I created a file port. The inbound tab of the port has the full path of where the file will be after it's sent from the external system. The external system is a PC server and is sending the file to the folder no problem. However, the SAP file port is not picking up the file. This is an IDOC file I'm trying to send to SAP. In the file port I click "test connection" and I get a positive result showing "access is possible".
I went into WE16 to manually bring the file in. I use the full path as in the file port plus the file name. I also enter the port name and try to execute. An error comes back saying "error opening file".
In WE16 I use...
<pc server>\directory\filename
Any help as to why I can't get the file through the port or manually in WE16 would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

hi,
have you seen below threads :
Steps to create port in WE21?
