Sender File adapter not picking the file ABCD.PRN extension file

Hi
Am doing File to Abap Proxy scenario. My source will be in text format of fixed length of fileds 7.
My souce file will be generated by a third party machine with the extension EEE150809.PRN. In my scenario my file adapter should pick the file and update the same in ECC via a Proxy.
I have configured the Sender File adapter with Message Protocol - Content Conversion but file adapter is not picking the file. I have checked the Communication channel and status is fine. But the same Communication Channel works for .XML file.
What are the parameters that I have to consider with the file extension .PRN using File adapter?
Thanks.
S.

Hi Swarna,
You dont need to worry about the extension when picking the file. You can try using EEE* so that is picks all the files starting with EEE. If you have the fixed name then you can try giving EEE150809.*. Also EEE150809.PRN should not have any issue. Try to see in sender commu ication cahnnel for anyerrors. Probably there might be some network issues or authorisation issues. If you are reading with NFS then ask them to give necessary permissions. If you are reading through FTP check the user id and pwd you are using.

File Adapter not picking the file

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create a Legacy-XI-R/3 scenario. I am using a file adapter as the sender communication channel and a ABAP proxy at the receiver end. I have given the path of my input file in the legacy system, but the file is not picked up by the adapter. Can any one tell me where I might have gone wrong?

Hi,
Just want to add one more suggestion.
Check the Host name, where the File is kept and try to use the directory path as
<HostName>\<DirName>.
Hope this help.

File Adapter Not picking the files

Hi All,
We have a process wherein the file adapter picks up the file from a particular location and it processed thereafter. We get the files once every month. We noticed that if the files that are being dazzled are of the same, i.e if the same nomenclature is there for the file that was dazzled the previous month, the adapter does not pick up the file. Only after renaming the file, it picks the file and processed them.
Any idea why the files that are dazzled with the same name are not being picked up.
Thanks in Advance...!!

Hi,
While configuring file adapter to pick up the files cross verify with file name putting in the directory location against the
"Includes files with name pattern" "Excludes file with name pattern" file name..
let say if u kept .*txt if picks the files txt with any name and one more think once after picking up the file from particular location are u enabling (delete file once read) option in configuration(It all depends on ur req)..
cross check the schema element of the file pattern.

Production issue - Sender File adapter not picking up the files from folder

Hi Guys,
Ever since the upgrade from XI 3.0 to PI 7.1, we have come acrossinstances of weird error.
Thsi time again - now the 3rd time - tandom basis, in our production PI server, we have teh file slying in the source directory folder in the server.
I can see the files lying there in AL11.
However, it looks like that the file polling has just stopped and the channel is going blank in channel monitoring.
I have checked in SXMB_MONI and there are no messages since the morning.
I have tried craeting a replica of the current channel but it is not working.
This is teh production server and thsi has alraedy created production issues.
I ahve checked in the SDN forum but am not able to find the details.
Plaese help me.
I am anyway going to raise the issue with SAP now.
Regards,
Archana

Hi Prateek,
I have trying all sorts since the morning and then just checked teh file permissions.
The file permissions were incorrect as compared ot the other files that were processed successfully today.
Somehow the permissions were changed on the server and the interface channel was not able to poll the files.
I got teh permissions changed back to 666 and all the files were pikced up in a minute.
I got the folder checked and it seems like that the permissions were changed somewhere very early in the morning and we are trying to find out how it happened and who did that.
However, another question i had - this sender file adapter was polling the source directory and deleting the files from there.
I would have expected that if the channel had issues with the file permission because of which it was not able to access the file, it would have thrown an error something like the file permissions error.
But there was not a single error in the channel monitoring.
How can we configure it in a beter way so that we at least soem kind of error indication?
Please advice.

Archana

Sender file adapter not polling the file

hi all,
i have configured a filexifile scenario....
but the file sender adapter is not polling the file at all....
i dont c any message either in RWB or in SXMB_MONI
i checked the adapter framework url at http://<ximachine>;<port>/AdapterFramework....and the status for the file adapter is green...
but the message it gives there is
Sender Adapter v1014 for Party '', Service 'TASL_FILE_SENDER':
Configured at 03:07:24 2006-02-02
Up and running - no message processing until now
last poll interval started 04:01:24 2006-02-02
length 60,000 secs
y is the sender adapter not polling the file..
i am using NFS as my File System....i gave the source directory as d:/test_dir/
is this way of specifying the source directory on a windows machine correct...
thanks

There is probably something wrong with the File Adapter. You will need to go to the RunTime Workbench >> Component Monitoring >> Display >> Click on the Adapter Engine >> More information will display and click on the button 'Adapter Monitoring' >> A new window will display and click on the arrow next to your adapter engine. This displays a list of adapters running on your system. Green light means good; Red, you have a configuration problem. Look at the error and try and resolve it.

Sender File Adapter not picking up the file

Hello Experts,
I have configured a sender file (FTP) adapter. All the configurations are right. The name of the file is given exactly as it is. The processing mode is Delete.
The scenario was running fine till today. I only made changes to the path from which it has to pick the file. I have checked the path numerously and it is correct.
But the file is not being picked up.
Monitoring the communication channel shows no errors. It has the green indicator. No idea what is happening.
Please Help,
Regards,
Merrilly

Hi
try to make some changes anf then again save and cativte the adapter. may be the adapter is not being activated.
also check whether the cache is refreshed or not.
or u can also check in the communication channel monitoring the channel is start or stop. if stop then start the channel and then try again.
if u still face the problem please reply me back.
Thanks

Sender File Adapter Not Picking Any File

Dear Expert,
I am newbie in PI. Just tried to create File Content Conversion Scenario. Details as follow :
1. Source Directory ..\file\log\test_q.txt
2. Target Directory ..\file\log\xml\test_q.xml
Transport Protocol : NFS
Message Protocol : File Content Conversion
Adapter Engine : Integration Engine
I have completed all the design and configuration in IR and ID. However, when I produce the log file in the directory, nothing happen.
Hacing checked in the RWB as well, I could not find any clue. simply nothing happen.
Would you please advise me on how to trigger the interface? As per my understanding, sender file adapter will be activated directly once the file is created.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best Regards,
Y

Hi Yonisiwa,
Things you should check here are:
1) If the sender file adapter is active or not.
2) If the source directory is correctly spelt or not. (Check if you are using the correct slash \ or /)
3) The file name/mask is correct or not.
4) The polling interval is too long.
Alternatively, you can check the message monitoring in RWB at the adapter level and go into the audit log if the message.
There you can see the reason for the file not being picked up.
Also check the Communication Channel status in the Component Monitoring link in RWB.

Hi,
Whether the Driver file has been mentioned in Provider XML file and check the messages are in the right sender Queue.
Check the Port and Protocol are right one.

Sender File adapter not deleting the source file after reading

Hi everyone,
In the sender Communication channel i have choosen the "Delete" option after reading the source file. But it is reading the file, but it is not deleting the file. I have checked the file status. it is with full persmission.
can anyone give solution to this.
Thanx
Bala

Hi,
1. set the mode to delete
2. make sure the file is "deletable"
3. check xiserver:port/MessagingSystem/monitor log to see what happens with the file
(chec both audit and log in that link)

File adapter not writing the file correctly

Hi,
I am facing an issue where the file created on the destination is not with the correct data. eventhough the payload that was sent out from XI to the adapter is correct.
Issue was with a mltiple element which was written once eventhough the payload shows multiple existance.
we had changed the occurance of that element from 1 to unbounded.
If anyone has any idea do let me know

I tried to redo the config objects but still the same issue is there. anyone has any idea

Sender JDBC adapter not picking up data

Hi,
I'm using an adpater to poll dta from two tables using the below query:
SELECT TPartOrderMaster., (the editor convert the star to bold),   TPartOrderDetail.    FROM TPartOrderMaster INNER JOIN TPartOrderDetail ON TPartOrderMaster.OdrNo = TPartOrderDetail.OdrNo WHERE (((TPartOrderMaster.DocStatusCode)='OA'))
UPDATE TPartOrderMaster SET LastUpdatedDate= GETDATE(), DocStatusCode='OP' WHERE DocStatusCode ='OA'
However, the adapter doesn't pick any data and gives the below log continuously.
11/13/09 5:35:50 PM 7c2bb696-0832-423d-2d59-8e955a3d6e6e Processing finished successfully
11/13/09 5:35:30 PM                                                                         Processing started
11/13/09 5:33:50 PM 7c2bb696-0832-423d-2d59-8e955a3d6e6e   Polling interval started. Length: 120.0 seconds
I have tried running th equery in the SQL server and it works properly.
I even tried restarting the adapter, inactivating and activating it, restarted the adapter in Visual admin. There are no locks for the jdbc adapter in the Visual admin.
Can anyone please suggest what other measures can I take to solve this issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Merrilly

I doubt whether this works with Jdbc adapter even though the query fetches data when executed on database. The query selects two tables (TPartOrderMaster and TPartOrderDetail) which could be problamatic. Instead can you list out the resultant table(after join) fields in Select query instead of table names?

Avi file does not have the same resolution as image file?

I'm using LabView with an IEEE-1394 camera and I set up the camera to record at a resolution of 1280 x 960 and can snap images and save them at that resolution from Measurement and Automation Explorer, but when I record avis using LabView, they have a resolution of 720 x 480 even though the images being written to the avi are 1280 x 960. I have had this same problem trying to make new videos from the original in which I extract a part of the image and write it to a new avi file... even though the extracted image is something like 620 x 300, when I play the avi (or get avi info), it says the avi has resolution of 720 x 480. I've tried creating an IMAQ, then using the set image size sub-VI to set the image to the size I want and the image shows up with the right resolution but the resulting avi has the wrong resolution, so my sub-videos are distorted. Is there some way to set the resolution of the avi other than by writing an image of that resolution? I'm using the compression filter DV Video Encoder... would that make any difference?
Thanks!
Kelly

Hey Kelly,
As far as the different codecs that are available, it all depends on what type of filter you want to use. They vary so widely that it is hard to say that one is better than another. Also, it depends on what type of compression that you want to use will also determine which codec you will want. Some use lossy compression and some use lossless compression. With lossy, you will lose some data when it compresses, but lossless will not. Lossless on the other hand will produce large data files, as it can only compress a certain amount without losing data.
One thing that you might want to consider is using some of the Vision functions to track changes in pixel values from one image to the next. There are a lot of different processing that you can do on your images before you store them to file by using the NI Vision functions. Other than that, you might have to just play around with the different codecs to find which one will work best for you.
Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thanks, and have a great day.

DJ L.

File adapter should pick a single file at a time

Hi,
I have File to RFC scenario.. in my source directory I'm getting bunch of files with the same name. at a time.. but i want to pick the one by one only. that means.. my file adapater poll interval is 30 seconds.. every 30 seconds it will pick the one file.. even though there are multiple files.. but my file adapter should pick a single file ata time..
but at present my file adapater was picking all the files ata time.. but i want to make my file adapter should pick single file ata time..
for this.. any special configuration we need to do.. or any ideas or suggestion .. will be.. appriciated..
regards
Babu

>>any special configuration we need to do..
there is no default configuration to achieve this functionality.
I speculate that any of this should work.
1. Post the files to a intermediate directory and use a SCRIPT/Batch program to move only one file at a time frame to the source directory.
2. Uncheck the option Process Read only files in the sender CC to prevent the file adapter to pick the read only files. Use a script that changes the permission of one file at a time so that the file adapter will pick that file alone.
In both the cases the script needs to be scheduled at the OS level to run every 30 seconds.
Thanks

File Adapter as Sender not picking the files

We configured the File Adapter as Sender, Transport Protocol =NSF and message protocol as FCC.
In OS we have folder to read the file, but SAP XI unable to read the file.
To trouble shoot this issue we copied that file into another location and reverted back to the same location then XI File adaptor is able to read the file.
Now we have compared the Attributes of the path
the only difference in file attributes
Coded character set ID . . . . . . . . :   819
CCSID 819 (decimal)
0333 (hex)
Name ISO 8859-1 ASCII
Description ISO 8859-1: Latin Alphabet Number 1Latin-1 countries and regions
Notes Related CCSID with euro is 923
able to read the file attributes:
Coded character set ID . . . . . . . . :   1252
CCSID 1252 (decimal)
04E4 (hex)
Name MS-WIN LATIN-1
SC Co-existence/Migration
FMS Subset
Registration Date
Description MS Windows, Latin-1
Notes CCSID for this code page with euro is 5348
We have tried to chage the File type as Text and File Encoding with ISO-8859-1even then its not picking the files.
Please suggest me where i am doing wrong here
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi,
Check the file path & file name , Check the processing mode parameter which you have set?
Check the folder properties & provide all the permission ...
Finally check the communication channel status in RWB, If the problem persist try to stop & start the communication channel again..
Hope it helps...
