Can file adapter be used to write to remote server

Hi, can file adpater be used to write to a remote server(say from linux to windows) or we have to run an ftp server and use the ftp adapter only.
Thanks
Manish

Hi Manish,
As mentioned by Hisaak, File adapter should be used to write files locally and FTP adapter should be used to write files on remote servers. Still if you want to use file adapter then you have to mount/map the network drive (drive at remote server) to your local machine and then you may use File adapter, provided proper permissions are there.

(261936172) Q general How can I access an EJB hosted on a remote server?

Q<general> How can I access an EJB hosted on a remote server?
A<general> The ability to add EJB control files enables you to access an EJB that
is deployed to the server on which your web service is running. When you select
"add EJB control" you need to supply the home and remote interfaces for the EJB
as well as the JNDI name. This does not provide you with the capability for creating
a control for a remotely hosted EJB. To use a EJB hosted on another server you
will have to provide the appropriate code within your web service itself. You
will have to programmatically gain to access the JNDI for the remote server, lookup
up the home stub and use it to create the remote stub for the EJB. Of course,
to make this work you must have the necessary client interfaces in you classpath
(home and remote interfaces) which can easliy be achieved by adding the EJB client.jar
file to the lib directory in the webservice WEB-INF folder.

just define the different server path in the description xml file
<jndi-name>jnp://serverA(B)/....</jndi-name>

How to get the File name that File Adapter is giong to write to a directory

Hi,
I am really stuck at one pint while working with File Adapter/FTP Adapter.
My requirement is I need to read a message from the Queue and write it to a directory as a physical file using a File/FTP adapter and the name that adapter will give to the file at runtime need to find and inset into the database for audit.
Is any body could help me to know the file name at run time that generated by the adapter?
Thanks,
--Khaleel

Hi,
I got the answer, I am posint this reply here that someone get the answer for this.
I have tested like this...
Create an empty BPEL process
Create two File Adapters (one for Read, one fro Write) operations.
Create a variable of type OutboundHeader_msg ( this message is chosen from the fileAdapterOutboundHeader.wsdl).
Create a receive active and link it to the read operation then create a variable. Make sure this is the first activity so you check the create instance checkbox.
Create invoke activity and link it to write adapter link.
Place the assign activity in between the receive and invoke.
In the assign activity create a copy operation and give your own name to the file name element inside the variable you created above.
Now double click on invoke activity go to the adapter tab and choose the above variable as the Input Header Variable.
This will generate the your own named file in the output file directory.
Thanks,
Khaleel

Hi,
In your case, to write any data to a file, you need to define/use a schema when you are using a file adapter.

Can File Adapter Select Based on File Age?

Is there a way to configure a File Sender communication channel to only pick up files that are at least 10 minutes old (been in the sending directory for that long)?
I want to avoid anything requiring an external process (ie. temp directory or outside scheduler moving files).
Thanks,
Keith

Hi Keith,
Do you mean, if the input file is still being written by some applications the File adapter is supposed to wait for the application before processing?
If so, you have the option Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check
Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check
Enter the number of milliseconds that the adapter must wait before it checks whether the files have been changed.
This parameter is not available if you have selected File Content Conversion as the Message Protocol and then made an entry under Recordsets per Message that splits an input file into several messages.
From SAP Help.

Jaishankar

Can Time Machine be used to back up my server?

I've got 10.6 Server running on an Xserve. I was told that Time Machine can't be used on a Server, but I do have the TM icon on my dock. Does TM work with server or not - are its backups flawed in some way for Server?

Michael
Whoever told you that you can't use Time Machine on OSX Server was not wholly wrong or wholly correct. As ever it all depends on what roles you want your Server to perform. It is not recommended to use Time Machine to back up OSX Server if it's an OD Master and/or a Mail Server and/or running a SQL Database. This is because those databases are more likely to be constantly changing - think about it. Most people would say the 'sensible' thing to do is to stop the Services - or curtail in some way access to those databases during the backup - effect the backup and then re-start the Services or allow access to the databases again. This is something Time Machine does not know how to do. As ever it's not so much backing up that's the problem. The problem generally arises if you have to recover data after a Server or Drive failure. More often than the recovered databases exhibit all sorts of problems and corruption. Probably because the databases were 'mangled' by Time Machine when they were backed up.
If all you want from your server is simple file sharing, iCal, iChat and Web Services then you can use Time Machine and safely recover from the backups. In my experience this works for me consistently well. As ever YMMV.

Can port 25 be used for SSL-enable SMTP server ?

Hi,
Our customer is using port 25 for a SSL-enabled SMTP server without certificate. When our email client tried to connect to it, the following exception thrown:
DEBUG SMTP: exception reading response: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?
Since we don't want to ask our customer to change their port configuration unless absolutely necessary, we did some tests with our own SSL-enabled SMTP server that uses certificate. Here is what I got:
1) with port 25, got the same exception as above;
2) with port 465, worked fine;
3) with any other randomly pick up valid port, worked fine.
This made me wonder if 25 is for non SSL SMTP server ONLY. By the way, I'm using Javamail 1.3.4 and JSDK 1.4.2_02. My question is whether we can configure javamail so that port 25 can be used by SSL-enabled SMTP server?
Your help will be appreciated.

Yes, port 25 is intended for non-SSL servers only, although that doesn't
prevent a client from making a plain text connection and then using the
STARTTLS command to switch the connection to SSL/TLS. JavaMail 1.4
supports that usage.
You can configure JavaMail to use port 25 for SSL connections if you
really want to. JavaMail 1.3.x requires you configure an appropriate
socket factory to get SSL connections; you can configure whatever port
you want for use with that socket factory.

Windows 2008 Server crashed - How to find location of remote shared files that they used to access on remote web app?

We have a client that was running windows 2008 server. A previous IT person had setup their system, so we were walking into a situation where there were many unknowns. Server was mainly handling emails only, and we were able to get their exchange
database off and export PSTs to hosted exchange via microsoft.
Everything went fine with that, however one user said that he used to access files on the server via the remote web app as he described. He would go to the following url:
https://mail.theirdomain.com/remote/menu.aspx#
and he would use his login and then he would see several links to folders. He could then click on those and see his desired files.
We were able to get the server booted again, however we could not find any of the files he described on it at all, leaving me to suspect that perhaps this remote link was accessing another PC.
We have the old server up and running, however the link above is no longer active because we have pointed the domain to the new hosted exchange server. As I am still learning and my boss wanted me to research this on my own and figure out how to find
out where these files are located. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Just as a note I did try access mail.localhost.com/remote/menu.aspx# on the server but this did not work. Is there any way in the IIS 7 management console to figure out where this was pointing to?

I figured it out - The server was using sharepoint to host these files. I browsed localhost:987 and opened the sharepoint site locally on the server. They had several documents to be exported, however when clicking on Open in Explorer it was
giving an error that local client was not configured. I installed Desktop Experience and after that was able to open it in Windows Explorer and copy all files off.

How can i build application using Jdeveloper 10g for Weblogic server 10.3

Hi,
We have a requirement where in we want to build an SOA application using Jdeveloper 10g for Weblogic Server 10.3.
Is there any way to make a connection to Weblogic Server 10.3 from JDeveloper 10g? If there is any way please share it with me.
Thanks,
Amit Kumar

Amit,
SOA Suite is not yet certified for WLS 10.3. You have to wait for the certification of it.
At the moment you can't install the SOA Suite on WLS 10.3 nor connect from JDev 10.1.3 to it.

Can time capsule be used for wireless backup without serving as a router?

can time capsule be set and used for wireless backup without serving as a router?

Not if you want it to work.
If you do want stand alone .. ie a TC sitting all on its lonesome with no internet connection.. then reset to factory and start over..
The TC has to be in router mode so it can handle dhcp and addressing.
Ignore all the problems.
BUT then you can connect your computer to TC for backup
OR
you can connect to main wireless router for internet..
You cannot do both.. at the same time.
UNLESS you have ethernet connection.. to either main modem or TC.. if you have two networks and two different network clients, then you can do both at once but the setup is tricky.

Can I edit a WordPress theme on a remote server with DW CS5?

I'm sure this isn't that difficult, but I'm going nuts trying to figure it out.
How do I tell DW CS5 to open my WordPress theme on a remote server so I can edit it using all the great new features? I'm not using my "real" blog/site for this.
I have gone through the tutorials to set up a local testing server, but I'd really like to be able to edit on my host too. It's got to be possible, but I'm just not finding the answer. Please help!

I use Dreamweaver CS4 to work on remote WordPress themes/sites all the time and it works very well.
I never bother setting up a testserver on my local machine since I work from different locations, so I work directly on the remote server from wherever I am.
I will try to give you step by step directions:
(I am on CS4 so it may be a little different for you but the basics will be the same),
Set up your site with site/manage sites/advanced
For the Local root folder you give the folder on your hard drive where you keep your files
Set links relative to document.
For Remote info set access to FTP
FTP host will be ftp.yoursite.com
Host directory is the path to your theme folder, in my case that is httpdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/mytheme/
Then give your login and password and check "use passive FTP"
check "maintain synchronization information" and "automatically upload files to server on save".
For testing server check "none"
For version control click "none"
(it could be a good idea to use version control through subversion but for a one-man operation it may be a little overkill, we leave that for now to keep things simple)
For cloaking check "enable cloaking", check "cloak files ending with" and give the file extensions of the files you keep in your local folder for building your website but don't want to be uploaded to your remote server, like .fla .psd .set .rtf .doc etcetera.
Now you are ready to start working on your theme.
In your files panel you can switch from local view to remote view. You can use the "get" and "put" commands (the arrows) to move files from local to remote and vice versa. I always work with child themes*. So in my theme folder there will be only a style.css file, a functions.php file, maybe some template files and an images folder. I use my local style.css file to make changes. On save, they are automatically uploaded and Dreamweaver also handles the "dependent" files, like images. No need to bother about that, really easy. Use the browsers on your machine to check your site.
The downside of working on a remote server is off course that if you make a mistake you will mess up your site. Luckily, in this setup you can just use "undo", save the file and you are back to were you were, as long as you work on your local files (and let DW upload those automatically after you save)
For safety and convenience, I keep all my local files in a Dropbox** folder. Everytime I save the file, a version is saved. So I can always go back to versions I made hours, days or weeks ago. If you're on a mac you could also use timemachine for this, but timemachine only backups every hour, where Dropbox keeps every copy you save(as long as you have enough free space in your Dropbox that is)
To sum it up:
• Setup your site with Site/manage sites
• work locally and let DW automatically upload the files you edited to the remote server
• setup your local machine so that versions are kept with Dropbox
• work on child themes instead of making changes to the original theme
• use a browser to view your work
* child themes are the easy and clever way of working with themes.
see: Working with Child Themes
** Dropbox is a free backup, file sync and filesharing utility.

Running a report using rwcli60 on a remote server

hi
I have a concurrent program which runs a 6i report. The output of this report is a PDF file which is then faxed to a set of users.
The report srever is not on the same unix box as the unix shell script which is the executable of the concurrent program. I am aware that rwcli60 can be used to run reports for non web based results.
I am not sure how to do this on a remote server. i.e how do I run teh report on the report server from the concurrent manager server?
Any ideas? please help.
thanks
