A client is trying to write pdfs to a remote server from Central

A client is trying to write pdfs to a remote server from Central, they can send a dat files from the remote server to Central and they can copy files from the Central Server in Windows Explorer and from a Command prompt, the folder is set to users everyone, read, write, etc. Central gives the cannot find output device in log. Central is installed with a local user ID and local host. Any ideas I am not finding anything on this on devnet forums I am going to check JetForm Alumni next. Thanks. I think it has something to do with the Central account and password but I don't know what to do.

It sounds like the account used to run Central does not have rights to access that remote server/directory.
Try changing the Central user account to use a more privileged account - normally a network account would be used to allow access to all resources across the enterprise - printers and file shares.

Read PDF Formatted Spool and write PDF File to Application Server

Hi Experts,

Currently as you can see I have commented out GUI_DOWNLOAD Function Module, But it works perfect when I try to Download file to Local Desktop.
But when I try to pass the same Contents to Application server file and then try to open it by downloading file then it opens BLANK pdf file.
As per requirements I should be able to write the file correctly on Application server and If I dowload it from there it should open PDF file correctly.
Let me know if you require further details about the issue.

Shital

How to store and retrieve a PDF form to SQL Server from LiveCycle?

My intention is to save a complete PDF form into a database and then later on retrieve this form from DB.
To do this, SQL Server has got two datatypes, image or Varbinary(max). I am able to store a PDF using "Execute SQL Statement"(I have written an Insert statement). Some value is being written into DB as well.
But when I try to retrieve this record using "Query Single Row"(I store the result to a doc variable), the retrieved PDF is of an unknown type and cannot be opened by Adobe Reader.
I am not sure if my approach is correct. Is it possible to store/retrieve a PDF form to/from a DB through LiveCycle?
If yes, please give me some guidance.

hi
am not sure
but u can use the same concept as storing image in db and retrieve..
create a blob column
parse that pdf and store into that column.
again u retrieve the content and via file io make the same name with pdf extension..

Write to file on server from app

Am trying to write to a file on server from an application like this:
java.net.URL url = new java.net.URL("http://www.rikif.dk/test.txt");
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
conn.setUseCaches(false);
conn.setDoOutput(true);
PrintStream out =
new PrintStream(conn.getOutputStream());
out.print("sdfsdf");
out.flush();
out.close();
But nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

No exceptions.. "Unlike other output streams, a PrintStream never throws an IOException".
You can write a file through HTTP into a web server? It does not make sense really.. is the file writable in the web server?
And why be writable - anyone would be able to write it then.
You can achieve that through sockets. A java program on the remote machine (playing the role of a server) would accept data through a socket from the clients, and would write the files itself.. without need of web servers.
You can use a tomcat server, and use a servlet, again to accept data and write the files itself.
..or?

end of itab.
data: dsn(100) value '/usr/sap/xfr/FIS/testpdf',
length like sy-tabix,

call function 'GUI_UPLOAD'
exporting
filename = 'c:\temp\test.pdf'
filetype = 'BIN'
importing
filelength = length
tables
data_tab = itab.
open dataset dsn for output in binary mode.
loop at itab.
transfer itab-field to dsn.
endloop.
close dataset dsn.
clear itab.
refresh itab.
*- To crosscheck if it went well
open dataset dsn for input in binary mode.
do.
read dataset dsn into itab-field.
if sy-subrc = 0.
append itab.
else.
exit.

Or
Use the TCode
CG3Z or CG3Y
for downloading to Application Server.

Cannot connect to Oracle 10g XE Server from Client

I have tried in vain to connect to the Server from a client installation using both browser and SQLPlus. Someone help me out pls...
Glogo.

I have read the SelfStudy many times but Sheila can't help me. I have installed 10g XE Client on a different pc and tried connecting as follows to no avail:
FROM Run SQL Command line; I entered "conn glogo/*****@GServer:8080/apex" the report I always get is
ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occured
From Internet Explorer; I entered "http://GServer/127.0.0.1:8080/apex" the report I get is internet explorer cannot display the webpage
I ensured the listener is on by typing LSNRCTL STATUS on the command line of the system running the Server. The report indicates that the Listener is ready.
I am still wondering what is wrong! I have also changed network setting from DHCP to static IP without results. What next friend(s)? Do you know?

View the pdf stored in content server

Hello,
Can I open a pdf available in content server from web? This web based application is non SAP aaplication.
The content server is connected to my SAP system and by using FM ALINK_RFC_DOCUMENTS_GET I get the required link. I am not sure how can I open this link from ouside SAP system( in SAP system pfd can be open using FM OBJECT_DISPLAY_CONNECTIONS).
I have also gone through the below SAP link also but no luck.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/9b/e8c18ceaf811d195580000e82deb58/frameset.htm
Thank you,
Bhavana

Hi
I'm not sure you can use this URL outside your SAP System and open it without providing any kind of security credentials.
Anyway what you could do is use ALINK_RFC_TABLE_GET to get your PDF in binary format and compose it in your Web Application

IPhone SDK : Communication between iPhone client and a remote server

Hi,
This is w.r.t iPhone Cocoa Touch native application.
i need to populate my application 's data from a remote application server ( which in turn connects to the database) . I require some tips in the communication between client sitting on the iPhone and the remote application server. I am planning to proceed in XML transaction way.
I referred the SeismicXML sample application provided by Apple. In this sample,client reads the physically existing xml file from @"http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/catalogs/eqs7day-M2.5.xml"; and the client parses the xml file and display the content on the table view.
i have following 2 queries ,
1. I do not want to read from a physically present file,i want the data to be transferred on the go.
Means, request should be sent from the client to a application server and the server process returns the data in form of xml file ( but its not creating any physical xml file) .
Basically i am looking for request - response concept.
2. Can we call a java process(which returns xml data) running on a remote server from the cocoa touch client.? If not java process,what would be other best way...
i am going through the Apple provided frameworks. Do any of the iPhone SDK frameworks support this request? If some one has any idea on the above mentioned queries, pls help me.
any pointers will also be helpful.
It might be too early to talk about these,but i have to take some business decision related on this.
thanks in advance.

You already know how to send a string via HTTP Post? And you know how to make XML into a string? Put the two together.

Remote logon from client 001

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to remote logon from client 001 to other systems?
to be moer clear, I have a SCM system client 001 and create a RFC destination to R/3 say client 600. Will it be possible to remote logon from SM59 to R/3?
It is not happening for me. it is neither giving any error nor opening the logon screen. Or even logon. What am I missing?
Points guaranteed.
--Ragu

Hi Ragu,
It is possible to remote login from client 001 to other system clients.
While you configuring make sure that the user must be having S_RFC autorisation object.
In SM59 specify IP Adress insted of host name and check authontication test.
If it is sucess user id password is correct and make sure that you have given Dialog/service user in SM59 logon& security tab.
Thanks,
Suraj

Form base PDF served from apache\linux seems to flatten PDF

The same form pdf works fine when served from my old windows server.
I see the pdf when its serverd via linux\apache but the pdf is flattened and I can't fill out the form.
<code>
<cffile action="readbinary" file="#request.leadroot#/leadmanagement.pdf" variable="newpdf">
<cfpdfform source="newpdf" action="populate">
       <cfpdfsubform name="form1" >
            <cfpdfformparam name="action" value="New">
            <cfpdfformparam name="opendate" value="#dateformat(now(),'mm/dd/yyyy')#">
            <cfpdfformparam name="owner" value="#session.username#">
            <cfpdfformparam name="submittercontact" value="#session.userfullname# | #session.useremail# | #session.userphone#">
     </cfpdfsubform>
</cfpdfform>
<cfcontent type="application/pdf"   variable="#newpdf#" reset="yes" >
</code>
Same thing happens if I browse direct to pdf as well.
Do you need to change Apache or add some headers?
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi Hamish,

HT204365 My function to "Open in" iBooks through my email is not an option, trying to save PDF on iBooks?? Please help

My "open in" iBooks option while viewing a PDF file via email does not appear. I was trying to save PDF in iBooks as I was able to do this a few months ago but now I'm unable. Any suggestions.

Realizing this is an old post, I want to offer my knowledge for future inquiries. I read a lot of posts and found no advise to my specific question, "Why does attachment options like 'Open in iBooks' not show in mail while previewing?" I, actually, had to contact my IT department AND Apple to get this issue resolved.
This is specific, but not inclusive, to those whom access their work email (Which is normally secure. Such as Exchange servers or other VPN required sites) through their iDevice, Droid, Chrome App, etc. Exchange and other networks have implemented source coding programs targeted at keeping data secure. This can keep us from opening attachments in iBooks, Acrobat, Microsoft Office, etc. Your provider can encrypt this code into your device (s) when you request access to your section of the server (ie: your work email). You may not have been aware but a lot of apps do this.
You can, most times, circumvent this by forwarding your work email to your personal email. The only except to this (that I have found thus far), is that if the writer or publisher of the document has encrypted the actual document itself (Such as "Read Only" or "Uneditable").
This may seem like a hack or loop, but it isn't. Allowing you to email it to yourself still protects their interest (Copyright infringement lawsuits). And it can allow you to do your job (just remember that YOU, now, ARE LIABLE FOR YOUR COPY & more than likely, being monitered).

Trying to write an SQL import script

Hello All,
I am trying to write a bulk importer for data for my clients and I am just about there. However I am running into a problem updating records in a second table.
I want to do all this through the SQL Server for resource purposes.
The SQL statement will go through the entire temp table (users to be added or updated) and compare it to the main existing table. First it will compare records and determine who are exactly the same (no changes) and then delete those records out of the temp table. Now it will find the records that are in the table (by employee ID), but have changes in their profiles (name, number, etc.).
This is my problem:
When I compare the phonenumbers in a separate table, which are connected by a sub_id. Example
Main Table: (Fields) sub_id, fname, lname, address, groups, subgroups, etc.
Phonenumbers Table: sub_id, account_id, sub_user_number, active
Right now, I am performing update statements:
-- Update sub_user_number
print('Update sub_user_number');
print(' -sub_user_number3');
UPDATE WENS..SUBSCRIPTION
SET sub_user_number = i.sub_user_number3
FROM WENS_IMPORT..IMPORT_INSPIRON i INNER JOIN WENS..SUBSCRIPTION s
ON i.misc1 = s.misc1
LEFT JOIN WENS..ACCOUNT_USER_GROUPS g
ON g.sub_id = s.sub_id
WHERE s.account_id = @account_id
AND isnull(i.sub_user_number, '') <> isnull(s.sub_user_number, '')
AND g.group_id IN (@group_id)
The problem is that if I have three numbers, it updates all three numbers with the same number.
Ideally what I would like to do is completely delete the numbers and then re-enter them. For example:
Perform a DELETE of all numbers out of PHONENUMBERS table where maintable.sub_id = temptable.sub_id
LOOP through numbers found in temptable
INSERT new number into PHONENUMBERS (sub_id, account_id, active, sub_user_number)
END LOOP
Therefore at the end of the loop, we will have entered three numbers (two that were originally in there and one that is new)
Could someone help me with the SQL syntax that will work in SQL Server Query analyzer?
Thank you VERY much for anything you all can do.

LOOP through numbers found in temptable
I have only skimmed this thread, but I would say do not loop unless it is truly needed. Databases are designed to work best with "sets" of information. So it is usually more efficient to process a group of records than one record at a time.
What I usually do with imports is run a series of bulk updates on my #temp table(s) to identify which items are "new" which ones are "changed". When finished I can easily JOIN to the base tables and do a single UPDATE for changed records and INSERT for new records. Usually a lot more efficient than looping one record at a time.
I want to do all this through the SQL Server for resource
purposes.
BTW: Not to ignore your question, but database questions are usually best answered in a database forum (in your case MS SQL). Because once you get the information into the #temp table, it is strictly sql from there and any database guru could assist. They do not have to know anything about CF ;-)
