Tcode SM69 - External OS Command

Hi guys,
I need help for tcode SM69
How do we access a BAT file from a directory path for example
C:\Program Files\Software_ABC\Deeper_folder\genxy.bat
Operating System = windows nt
Type = Customer
But I have no idea how to go about for the Operating System Command.
I'm supposed to run it like
C:\Program Files\Software_ABC\Deeper_folder\genxy.bat "E:\usr\sap\EWD\DVEBMGS00\data\File_20110107114455.xml"
Any advice? Appreciate it

you create external command and pass command name in FM
CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
or u can use following way
CONSTANTS: c_extcom    TYPE sxpgcolist-name VALUE 'ZTEST',
           c_oper      TYPE syopsys VALUE 'Windows NT'.
DATA: v_dir_input      TYPE sxpgcolist-parameters. " Input Directory
DATA: t_result         TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF btcxpm.
v_dir_input = 'cmd /c C:\Program Files\Software_ABC\Deeper_folder\genxy.bat'.
CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
EXPORTING
    commandname                   = c_extcom
    additional_parameters         = v_dir_input
    operatingsystem               = c_oper
TABLES
    exec_protocol                 = t_result
EXCEPTIONS
    no_permission                 = 1
    command_not_found             = 2
    parameters_too_long           = 3

External System command is not working

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to copy some files (K&R ) from one directory to another directory on my application server. For that I made one external operating systems command through Tcode sm69.
I took operating system as "DOS" and put the operating system command
"copy d:\usr\sap\e70-trans\data\r900425.e70 d:\usr\sap\trans\test"
and left the "Parameters for operating system command" blank. I executed it by FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE., it gives me an error message
Can't exec external program (No such file or directory)
WaitForSingleObject failedwith %d (No such device or address)
the above DOS command is working fine when i am running it directly from dos prompt.
I didn't give any RFC in above FM. and changed the operating system to DOS by default it comes as Windows NT, gave the command name. Remaining things were defaulted.
My application server is on Windows Server 2003.
Can you please let me know what I am missing?
Thanks
Yogesh Gupta

Hi,
Since you ave tried it from command prompt, simplest would be create a batch file & include your copy command in that & in SM69 define a new command say ZCOPY, give operating system command as batch file name along with full path. Test the above via SM49. If it works then just use:
CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
         EXPORTING
            commandname            = 'zcopy'
          additional_parameters = w_additional_parameters
            status                              = statusline
         TABLES
            exec_protocol                       = t_copy
         EXCEPTIONS
            no_permission                       = 1
            command_not_found                   = 2
            parameters_too_long                 = 3
            security_risk                       = 4
            wrong_check_call_interface          = 5
            program_start_error                 = 6
            program_termination_error           = 7
            x_error                             = 8
            parameter_expected                  = 9
            too_many_parameters                 = 10
            illegal_command                     = 11
            wrong_asynchronous_parameters       = 12
            cant_enq_tbtco_entry                = 13
            jobcount_generation_error           = 14
        OTHERS                              = 15
I hope this helps,

External OS Command SM49

Hi All,
Is it possible to run External OS Command created in Tcode SM49 by File Adapter.
We are running SAP PI IBM OS i5 and need to call RPG program from File Adapter, if i create custom OS command in SM49 and able to execute the same command from File adapter then my problem has been fix.
In out BI environment we are doing the same but i never use it PI.
With Regards
Sunil

Sunil,
You mentioned if i create custom OS command in SM49 and able to execute the same command from File adapter:
I dont see any difference in calling this script from the file adapter. Put all the commands in the script and you can call the script directly from the file adapter. What ever you can achieve from sm49 you can achieve the same from file adapter also. I didnot work this practically, but I dont see you should run into any issues.

"Open with External Editor" command bug?

Seems to be a bug with "open with external editor" command. If I try it just after Aperture has been opened, it usually works (sometimes not). And then after a couple of photos being edited in photoshop, it sometimes stops working. When I try it, it simply gives me SBBOD for a few seconds (which it does when it's working as well), and then nothing happens. No new master created in Aperture, and nothing in Photoshop. If I restart the program, it usually takes care of the problem, and it will work again for a bit. Sometimes restarting the program doesn't even work, and I have to reboot. Very strange.
Any one else getting this? Any ideas?
I'm using 1.1.1 and Photoshop CS2.
powerbook G4 1.5 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6) 2 GB RAM, ATI Radeon 9700 (64MB VRAM), 80 GB ATA HD (5400rpm)

Anyone out there? No one else experiencig this "bug"?
Help, please.

Edit with external editor command in iPhoto

I know there is a way to set IPhoto so you can use both iPhoto and PS Elements editors to edit photos. I have seen the "*Edit with external editor*" command within the Edit header within iPhoto but can't figure out how to do this. I found the below and tried it but it doesn't allow me to set two editors within Preferences. What am I doing wrong?
+"If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and select "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds"+
Thanks,
Scott

FIRST set external editor to PSE
THEN change the selection back (NOT TWO selections - just this one) edit in main window leaving PSE as the external editor
once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".
+You are working VERY hard to make this dificult - *it is simple*+
Set PSE as the external editor THEN select edit in main window as the default without changing PSE being the external editor - One selection - EDIT IN MAIL WINDOW
NOW double clicking will edit in iPhoto -- Right clicking (or control clicking) will give you a contextual menu allowing you to choose PSE as the editor

SM69 - external command

Hi,
My developer is asking for a unix "mv" command to move files from one location to another (after successful processing of that file). The "mv" command will be coded in the ABAP.
I'm using SM69 to create a "ZMV" external command so that it can be called within ABAP.
Now, I would like to control the location of where the files are moved to.
Does anyone know how I can use the "Parameters for operating system command" & "Additional parameters" fields in SM69 to control the location?
Or is there another approach to tackle this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Sisab,
It is simple. Keep parameters blank if you don't want any special parameters lie <i> etc. However addtional parameters is important.
Basically the syntax of move command would be
mv <original path> <new path>.
This part <original path> <new path> needs to be specified into addtional parameters.
However you to give complete path.
This would do the job for you.
With Regards.
Ruchit.

External OS command script in file adapter - return value check possible?

Is it possible to check return value of external OS script execution which is called in the file adapter? We want to see the result in the adapter monitoring. The documentation says: "Message processing is independent of any errors that occur during the execution of a configured operating system command."

Hi Sanjay ,
Seems possible : Try this :

External system commands in java application

I'm trying to run a molscript command in Unix, in a java application. I want to view a molscript graphic via the application. I have been using the following command
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("molscript -opengl < " + file);
Is this possible? Ihave ben able to run simple Unix commands such as 'ls' or 'dir' through the application but when I try a molscript command the error says
java.io.IOException: molscript: not found
Perhaps somebody could help me on this subject?

The standard input redirection in:
molscript -opengl <filenameis handled by the command interpreter, that is, one of the shells.
"sh","-c","molscript -opengl <filename"

Its is better you write the code in the batch file (.bat) and call the batch file at runtime rather than using .exe file

Execute external java command line in Java

But I can not get any result ( It does not create file test.svg) . the code is as follow
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java -jar c:/XSLT/saxon7.jar ../webapps/wfscontroller/gml.xml ../webapps/wfscontroller/SVG.xsl > ../webapps/wfscontroller/test.svg");
If I execute "java -jar c:/XSLT/saxon7.jar ../webapps/wfscontroller/gml.xml ../webapps/wfscontroller/SVG.xsl > ../webapps/wfscontroller/test.svg" in DOS command. it works.
Anybody knows what happened?
Many thanks in advance.

The > is interpreted by the shell. When you use Runtime.exec, you don't go through the shell, you exec the executable directory. So when you exec that command, you're passing ">" as an argument to "java -jar c:/...", and chances are the main() method in that doesn't interpret ">".
So the upshot is you can't use ">", "|", "<", etc., that you can in a shell, with Runtime.exec().
Other options are to run a batch file which invokes that command line.
Or, you can get the standard output from the exec'ed process, and save it to a new file yourself.

Netctl, systemd and 'external' vpn command

I am trying to use netctl to connect to a vpn (a microsoft vpn). The `pon` command works, but I would like to use netctl to set up routing, dns, et cetera. I am confused about how netctl and systemd should work together, and I have not found any documentation where this is explained in a way that I can follow.
What I did gather, is that netctl delegates vpn connections to systemd. This is the contents of /etc/systemd/system/myvpn.service:
[Unit]
Description=myvpn connection
[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pon
PIDFile=/var/run/ppp0.pid
Unclear to me is how I should set up an additional netctl file, and how that one should make use of, or, being used by, the systemd-file.
Pointers are very much appreciated!

Could very well be possible that I've been on the wrong track
But I cannot make the pppoe-configuration to work.
* Where would I put the `pon`-command? I have grepped the files of netctl, but the pon-command is not built in...
* Why would I need to put in username and password? That is already handled by my chaps-secret file, that is pointed to via the OptionsFile...
* And what should I choose for the Interface? If I give it the name ppp0 (what is being used by pon), netctl complains as follows:
Interface 'ppp0' does not exist
Anyway, here is my current config:
$ grep -vE '^(#|$)' /etc/netctl/myvpn
Description='Example PPPoE connection'
Interface=ppp0
Connection=pppoe
User='myuser'
Password='mypassword'
PPUnit=0
OptionsFile=/etc/ppp/peers/myvpn
IP=dhcp
ConnectionMode='persist'
DefaultRoute=false
UsePeerDNS=false
$ cat /etc/ppp/peers/myvpn
pty "pptp <ip-address> --nolaunchpppd"
name myvpn
remotename FW-ROADWAR
require-mppe-128

Auto-Reaction Method - External Operating System Command

Hello ,
I am trying to run a script (test.cmd) on a monitored java system out of solution manager via ccms auto-reaction method, but without success.
I have created a RFC Connection to the java system in transaction sm59, defined an external operation command in transaction sm69 (/usr/sap/test.cmd) and an auto-reaction method using that command. But when I test the command in transaction sm49 with the RFC connection as target destination, the command is executed on the local CEN system (SolutionManager system) instead of the monitored java system. I have no clue where's the problem???
Thanks for any help (points, points, points)
