Using operating system command on file receiver comm.channel

Hi,
I pepared a XI 3.0 message generating .txt file.
I must append content of this file to the and of the file with same name but different extension(.bak extension).
I know it is achieved with copy name.bak+name.txt it appends txt file to the .bak file.
My problem is: How can i supply name of .txt file to use as name of .bak file?
How can i do that?
Thanks.

Is it possible to call operating system command after file receive?

Hi expert,
I'm trying to call operating system command after file receive comm.channel receive a txt file.
operating system command uses txt file name as parameter.
Is it possible? How?
Thanks.

Hi,
It should be possible, actually we have two options that are
1.RUN OS command before message processing
2.RUN OS command after message processing.
So you can give the commands in the RUN OS command after message processing.

Unzip file using operating system command in file/ftp receiver adapter

Hi,
I'm wonderdering how to unzip a zip-file in the receiver file/ftp adapter. I know it is possible to do it using the 'Operating system command' feature, but somehow the command I use seems to be ignored! (I'm using SP14, unix).
The command I entered is quite simple: unzip %F (also tried the %f, but i guess it doesn't really matter wich on I use).
Is it possible that I'm unzipping to another directory than the one i expect? the unzip should be performed to/in the current directory, and assumingly current directory is the one stated in the 'Target Directory', right?
Hope someone can clearify this issue for me.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
It seems to me also, that the files are being unzipped to a different location than what you are expecting. The OS command might getting executed in some default location(i am trying to fnd that out)on the server and not in the target directory of the channel(It seems logical to me)....
If you have time...pls try this out & see whether this would help...
Have a shell script written with the following commands in them
cd <path to target directory>
unzip $1(filename from the channel)
and in the OS command in the Channel give....
<absolute path to the .sh file> %F
Thanks,
Renjith.

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus . The Host OS is Linux
define report_name=PROD_${host date "+%b"}.html
The above is not working.
The output should be

of course I was talking nonsense: the problem here is the mixing of bind variables and DEFINE variables.
With the following changes the script should work (the conditions for begin_interval_time are perhaps not what you want):
variable snap1 number
variable snap2 number
variable rptname varchar2(20)
begin
SELECT min(snap_id) into :snap1 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;
SELECT max(snap_id) into :snap2 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;

Operating System Command After File Processing in Sender File Adapter

Hello guys,
actually we have different interfaces, and the client to take all the files from only one directory, for example D:/DPI.
Unitl now we had one adapter for every file with the content conversion, so we didn't have problems with that. Now we have the problem that we sould maintain an order processing files.
We thougth that an idea could be to execute one file pointing to D:/DPI and at the Operating System Command put like: copy D:/DPI/file.txt D:/DPI/outbound/file.txt, so when file is executed, we move the next file to another directory where is pointing the adapter. Doing this we have an error on the adapter giving us the message: Could not process due to error: java.lang.NullPointerException
We are using a Windows.
There is anyway to do in our way, or there is a better solution to resolve this problem?
Any other idea to do this?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Xavi.

Helo Guys,
maybe I haven't explained well.
We have one directory with different files. We have one adapter for every file( we need for the content conversion ) using NFS and all the adapters are pointing to the same directory.
The problem is that if we have files A.txt, B.txt and C.txt we need to process in an order.
And the problem we see is that for every file we have one adapter, so for example if we process file A.txt with one adapter, when this part is finished, we want to process file B.txt with another adapter, and the same for the rest of the files.
So the idea we had is to create another directories, and when A.txt has finished move file B.txt to another directory.
However this way is not running, if we log on the PI machine and execute cmd, we can do a copy of one file from one directory to another, but when we put this sentence in the adapter in OS command if we see the adapter log we see an error executing the OS command, but we don't know what is the error, there is no more information.
There is any way to do this or maybe we have to manage in a different way?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Xavi.

Error in File receiver comm channel

Hi,
In Runtime Workbench communication channel monitoring i get the following error
Unable to create new pooled resource: UnknownHostException Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool
Could you please let me know why am i getting this error
Thank you,

Hi Deepak,
This error you will get if you are giving wrong authentication details for FTP connection. Please make sure that your details are correct.
First try to open your FTP server through the IE.
Otherwise, open Command Prompt.
Type FTP-> Open your server name->
you will get the message connected to your server name.
Then give the user id and password to enter into the server.
If you are able to log in here. Then your details are correct otherwise check with the basis team for the correct user id and password.

Operating system command to zip the file

Hi Experts,
I got proxy to file scenario, i can place the text file successfully in reciever side, i want to zip the file in reciever side using operating system command option in reciever Communication Channel.
Can anyone please give me the operating system command to create the zip file in reciever side.
Kind Regards,
Praveen.

Hi Praveen,
>>Can anyone please give me the operating system command to create the zip file in reciever side.
Why OS commands and not the PayloadZipModule?
If you need OS commands check this blog of Michal /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/02/08/xipi-command-line-sample-functions
Update
You can try this command too
cmd /C "jar cMf \\<folderpath>test1.zip \\<folderpath>*.*"

Execute external operating system command

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement to run a script file with extention '.PL' on the application server using ABAP.
i have sample how to run it in XI.
XI3.0 provides a very simple way of handling this using the "Operating System Command" in the File Adapter.
I post my output file in the following folder,
/usr/sap/sapout/test/
The shell script is available in the following path,
/usr/sap/bin/convert.pl
The figure below explains as to how we call the shell script using "Operating System Command".
File Acess parameters
      Target Directory      = /usr/sap/sapout/test/
      File Name Scheme = TestOutput.txt
Processing Parameters
     File Construction Mode          = Add Time Stamp
     File Type                              = Binary
     Operating System Command = /usr/sap/bin/convert.pl %F
I have to do the same thing in ABAP as it has been done for XI as mentioned in the above example.
My operating system is UNIX.
If any one can give me a sample it would be really helpful to me.
Thanks in advance,
Arundhathi.

Hi Arundhati,
You can run operating system commands from ABAP.
e.g. If you want to change UNIX right for any file, you can use following code.
lv_ucomm = 'chmod a+rwx 123.txt'.
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD lv_ucomm.
whatever command you provide in Field parameter ( lv_ucomm in the above case ), ABAP run that command at operating system level.
In your case, you can provide command in lv_ucomm to run script at operating system level.
Hope it will help you.

Run operating system command for sender File adpter (NFS)

Hi All,
iam doing a file to RFC scenario, using 'Run operating system command' in sender file adapter to change the file name while archiving (after processing completed).
I mention OS command like this:
sample_server\scripts\Test\Rename.bat"
Rename.bat file calls a 'perl script' code.
when i run interface, could see below statement in adapter log ->
"Execute OS command "
sample_server\scripts\Test\Rename.bat"
but the script was not run and file name was not changed.
Please advice what could be the problem?
Does this mean script executed successfully?
Do i need install perl software on XI server, even perl script (.bat file) is executing on sample_server?
Thanks in advance..

Rajesh

Hi,
Just check the following URL and give it a try again :-

How to execute operation system commands by using TSQL without enabling xp_cmdshell.

Hi Experts
Looking for advise if one can use operation system commands using TSQL without enabling xp_cmdshell.
actually using xp_cmdshell requires sysadmin privs which I am unable to provide (directly or using proc) to a user but the user needs some operating system commands to execute for file manipulation from sql server session. Please share your thought.
Best Regards
khalil

>but the user needs some operating system commands to execute for file manipulation from sql server session
See article here
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2014/replace-xpcmdshell-command-line-use-with-sql-server-agent/:
"Problem
I need to run something from the command-line, but based on best practices xp_cmdshell has been disabled. The task that needs to run is an internal process that will originate from within SQL Server. Is there a way to do this without using xp_cmdshell?
Solution
The use of xp_cmdshell is generally frowned upon and is now recommended to be disabled, unless it is absolutely necessary. There is a solution that works around this restriction via the use of SQL Server Agent.
Wherever SQL Server is installed, SQL Server Agent is installed with it (except for SQL Express). SQL Server Agent has the ability to run job steps which invoke the command shell. And in the case that the job is owned by a member of the sysadmin fixed server
role, the job will execute as the service account under which the SQL Server Agent is running. "
