Archive files from Webdynpro

Hi All,
I have a requirement where the uploaded file has to get stored in Archive from Webdynpro. I am using the file uploader which is giving me the file name, MIME type and data but I am unable to store it in the Archive.
I am using FM 'ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_FILE' but getting the error that GUI is not supported(NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI). But the same FM is working from SAPGUI when run from SE37 and returning a document ID. When called from Webdynpro, it is going into error.
I tried using similar function modules I found in the Function Group but it seems none of them support getting called from the Webdynpro.
Is there a way to archive files from the desktop to the SAP Archive using Webdynpro ABAP?
Thanks
Shinjan

How to delete Archived files from FTP

HI,
I am looking to delete Archived files from FTP Server, Can anybody have idea about this.
Thanks,
Ram

To be frank, deletion of archived files is really a manual activity and is never in reality done by an interface
so you have two options;
1. log into the archived folder and manually delete archived files
2. run a script in your file adapter - this way everytime the interface is triggered the files will be deleted - but then y do this.. instead just dont archive any files at all

Problem in Archiving File From FTP Server to XI File Server Using FCC

Hi,
The scenario is file to IDOc. XI has to read the input file from client FTP server and archive it to XI local file server. Archiving on XI server is working fine without FCC (for xml files). But with FCC, the sender FTP adapter is archiving empty files (0 kb files).
I've checked SXMB_MONI, even there I can see the file data and the IDoc is getting posted with proper data. But, the archived file is empty. Not sure about the problem.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Joe.

Hi,
File adapter has the functionality which support the empty file handling.
Handling of Empty Files
Specify how empty files (length 0 bytes) are to be handled.
○ Do Not Create Message
No XI messages are created from empty files.
The files are processed according to the selected Processing Mode.
For example, if the processing mode is Delete, empty files are deleted in the source directory.
○ Process Empty Files
XI messages are created with an empty main payload.
The files are processed according to the selected Processing Mode.
○ Skip Empty Files
No XI messages are created from empty files.
Empty files are skipped and remain in the source directory.

How to download file from Webdynpro ABAP?

Hello,
What is the best way to download a file from ABAP Webdynpro?
I tried calling method *cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download*
from within an Action of my WDA, but it got an error 06, which is "Unknown Error" (not very helpful).
The same code works when I execute it from a regular ABAP program.
I am not using ALV. I just created a file by reading a database with WDA selection fields, then transformed it to XML using CALL TRANSFORMATION.
Thanks,
Colleen

You can't use the GUI_DOWNLOAD, because you have no GUI present, which is the reason why you are getting the error. You will want to take a look at the class/method cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response

Access SAP Data Archival file from outside SAP

Hello Everyone,
I have a requirement to archive the SAP data, dump that outside SAP in some other system like ILM or BI and build a reporting tool on top of that data.
So, basically customer want to shutdown the SAP and want to retain data for legal and audit pourpose.
I was doing some RnD and done archiving of MM_EKKO using SARA. the file got generated with extention .ARCHIVE. I donwnloaded teh file but it is encoded file with all special character in it.
My question is:
1. How can I read the archieved SAP data from outside SAP system.
2. Can we decode the .ARCHIVE file to get it in .DAT format?
3. Or Is there any other way to access the SAP data outside SAP in a report format.
Thanks,
Chintan SOni.

Hi Chintan,
1. How can I read the archieved SAP data from outside SAP system.
For this you could refer SAP Note 460620 - Migrating archive files
2. Can we decode the .ARCHIVE file to get it in .DAT format?
As per my knowledge,it's not possible to decode or move to .DAT format.
3. Or Is there any other way to access the SAP data outside SAP in a report format.
Refer my first response & the SAP note.
Hope this will help you.
Good luck !!

Where is the "Archive" file from "Archive and install"?

I did an Archive and install when I upgraded to 10.5. I also made a bootable clone (external HD) of my Tiger.
Now, I'd like to know where the Archive file is? And is it ok to delete?
Need to free space on my internal HD.
Thanks

Open the folder Previous Systems on your hard disk, go through the highest numbered or most recent folder for items you want to keep; once done, throw it away and empty the Trash.

Passing an XML file from WebDynpro app to ABAP function module

Hi all,
I'm stuck with a problem, and am hoping one of you could let me know how to proceed:
I need to pass an XML file (or at least the entire content of the XML) from my WebDynpro application to a backend ABAP function module. What I tried was this:
In my WebDynpro app, I read the XML and convert the content into one long string (using java.io.FileReader and java.io.BufferedReader). In my ABAP function module I created an import parameter of type String. I then imported the ABAP Function module into my WebDynpro app as a model. I then tried to pass the XML string to the ABAP module. What happens is this:
If the size of the string (XML) happens to be less than 255 characters, then it works. That is, the string is passed to the ABAP function module and I can see the contents. However, if the XML string happens to be greater than 255 characters, then it does not work. The string at the ABAP side is empty. Surprisingly, the ABAP module does not throw an error either. It just displays an empty string.
Could you please tell me what the problem is?
Thanks & Regards,
Biju

Hi Biju ,
Welcome to SDN.
If the import parameter is defined as type string it should work, however did you check whether your application pass it properly?
I have applications using strings as import parameters working fine. (webapplications (BSP) to RFC)

Opening a PDF File from WebDynpro

Hello Everyone,
I have a Webdynpro project and need to create a link on one of the views to display a .PDF document.
1. Where should I store the PDF document within the webdynpro project?
2. How do I open the PDF file?
I've created a link with action on the view and just need to know how to open it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Mike

Hi Mike,
You can try one of the following methods:
Method 1:
1. Create a context attribute (say pdfsource) of type binary.
2. Create a file download control
3. Attach this attribute to the data property of file download control.
4. In the init method of the view or in some other method store the content of the pdf in the context attribute. And do the following code
     IWDAttributeInfo attInfo = wdContext.currentContextElement().node().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("pdfSource");
     ISimpleTypeModifiable type = attInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
     IWDModifiableBinaryType binaryType = (IWDModifiableBinaryType) type;
     binaryType.setFileName("Test.pdf");
     binaryType.setMimeType(WDWebResourceType.PDF);
5. Now on click of File Download link, it will ask for "Open", "Save", or "Cancel" dialog box. You can choose open to open as a pdf document.
Method 2:
1. Write an action on click of the button or so.
2. In that action get the contents and store it in an byte array and open the pdf file directly as follows.
     byte[] PDFbytes = <source string>.getBytes();
     if(PDFbytes!= null) {                                IWDCachedWebResource pdffile= WDWebResource.getPublicCachedWebResource(                    PDFbytes ,                                 WDWebResourceType.PDF,                            WDScopeType.CLIENTSESSION_SCOPE,               wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getDeployableObjectPart(),
                "Some Title");                             wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(pdffile.getURL(), "Some PDF").open();
Thanks and regards

Hi,
I think the binary file conversion was not done properly( you haven't filled bin_pdfx, its the otf_data ). OR, Use CONVERT_OTF FM and pass format as PDF. Check this document for reference: Opening a Smartform in Web Dynpro ABAP
Hope this helps u,
