Hi Alia,
Check this Function module also
    call function 'SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST'
         exporting
              dirname      = p_reqdir
              filenm       = ' '
         tables
              file_list    = t_reqfile_list
         exceptions
              access_error = 1
              others       = 2.
This FM returns the list of all files in the path specified.

How to create pdf files in UNIX directory from oracle reports

I would like to know how to create pdf files in UNIX directory from oracle reports.
Thanks,

Please make your question more clear . Also mention the reports version.
1) If you are runnning reports in Unix, you can give
.... destype=file desformat=pdf desname=<filename>
in command line
Please refer docs below.
2) If by your question you mean
"My reports server is running in Windows but I want to ftp my files to Unix after creating it"
then the answer is that you can use pluggable destination "ftp"
.... destype=ftp desformat=pdf desname=<ftp url>

Information Broadcast Email File - Where is the file in Unix directory?

Hi,
I am using Information Broadcasting to email the BI report. We use Unix as the application server.
In transaction SOSV, I can get detailed information on the file (attachment) and the send status. There is a requirement to encrypt the file in Unix server. Does anyone know where the file resides in Unix when the report is generated from Information Broadcasting? What's the Unix directory?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I added the path of the servlet.jar to the CLASSPATH. Now my modified
file content is as follows:

Sample code to read a text file from UNIX directory.

I am using 9i Developer Suite, application server is 9.0.4. I want some help on how to read a flat file from UNIX environment. A sample code could be very helpful.
In windows, i use this kind of code:-
I declare an object & then write to a file using these sample staements:-
file_handle text_io.file_type;
filename := 'd:\ran\egs\uninvoiced.txt';
file_handle:=text_io.fopen(filename,'w');
text_io.put_line(file_handle, 'MOBILE NO '||'COUPON NO ' || 'DATE');
I hope, my question is clear. Please help in solving the doubt.
Regards.

filename := 'd:\ran\egs\uninvoiced.txt';This is a Windows directory, so it won't work on Unix.
For the rest of the code: see examples in the Forms Builder Online Help.

CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE - Error when reading from file in unix directory

Hi
We have a custom report which reads data from a file put in the unix directory. This report has been running for good 3 years now without any code changes.
For a few days the report is dumping with the following error
CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
Short text
    Character set conversion is not possible.
What happened?
    When converting a text from code page '4110' to code page '4102',
    the system either
    - encountered a character which cannot be represented in one of
      the two code pages; or
    - found that this type of conversion is not supported.
The code where the dump occurs is:
load the file from the given path
OPEN DATASET p_p_lfdata FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT WITH SMART LINEFEED.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    DO.
>>>>>>>>      READ DATASET p_p_lfdata INTO l_rec. " Dump occurs here
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
I understand this error is thrown in the OPEN DATASET statements in case of non-unicode compliance, but this statement does not throw an error while the READ DATASET statement does..... Any particular reason why the READ statement is failing even though OPEN is successful???

Hi,
you open the according file in DEFAULT mode. I assume you do this on a Unicode system.
Then the program assumes that the file is encoded in UTF-8 (SAP number 4110).
Now it seems that the file contains some characters, which are not encoded in UTF-8.
I would propose to investigate the code page, on which the file is created.
Ideally this should be UTF-8. If this is not the case, try to change it.
If this is not possible, then adapt the ABAP program (e.g. use Non-Unicode mode).
Best regards,
Nils Buerckel

How to check files in the directory using JSP?.

Hi,
How can i check the file is directory or file and readable or writable and file size and type of file(Ex. jpg, txt, doc., etc). i want to list the specific type of file in the particular directroy.. please help me..
Regards
CHinna

With the File class, using the methods isFile(), isDirectory(), canRead(), canWrite(), length() and getName()
With File.listFiles() you can get a directory listing. If you want to limit the amount of files returned, you can pass your own FileFilter to it.

How to write a file into UNIX!

Hi Group!
I am trying to write an error file into UNIX directory using 'OPEN DATASET ERRFILE FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT'. But unfortunately i am getting a dump as it is giving the subrc 8 and dumping with CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE.
The path looks like /sap/DE1/batch/data/SCM_YM/partfiles/HGMEH011.20071001150344
Is there any special command or way to write the file into UNIX?
Quick response would be of great help.
Suresh

The detailed error is
The file '&FILENAME&' was not opened, or was opened in the wrong mode.
Can you please try to create a new file that does not exist.
then we can check whether you have authorization or not.
OPEN DATASET to a file already opened - in the same internal mode - triggers the exception.
THtas why you just create a file with some rough name ( may be ur name) intially and then check.

How to check whether a file is present in the UNIX directory of app. server

Hi,
        I am creating files in the UNIX directory in the application server using :
                   CONCATENATE '/sapmnt/RD1/interfaces/client670/'
                   p_fname '.CSV' INTO w_filename.
           OPEN DATASET w_filename FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
          LOOP AT t_output1.
                  TRANSFER t_output1 TO w_filename.
          ENDLOOP.
         CLOSE DATASET w_filename.
I am unable to check whether a file with the same name exists or not. How to check the duplicate state of the file.

You can use the following fm
RZL_READ_FILE
or
use OPEN DATASET FOR INPUT.

Create XML file on application server (unix directory) from internal table

Hallo everybody,
I have got the following problem:
I am working with <u><b>release 4.6C</b></u> and have got to create XML files from HR master data and organizational data respectively.
This takes place in 3 steps:
1.     Collect the data in an internal table
2.     Convert the data to XML format using the function module 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
3.     Download the data
If I download the converted data, which are in an internal table, to the presentation server via the function module WS_DOWNLOAD and open it with the Internet Explorer, everything is ok.
If I download the converted data to the application server, i.e. into a unix directory via
open dataset, loop at internal table, transfer working area to file, close dataset
and then try to open it, this is not possible, because after the last tag some unreadable characters, e.g. a square, appear that arent supposed to be there. Thats what my colleagues told me, for I havent got access to the server.
I have no idea where these characters come from and how I can get rid of them. I guess that either I have to modify (how?) the table with the converted data before the download or I have to use another way to convert the data. For the second way I would probably have to work with an XML class or an XML interface. Unfortunately II am not an expert in working with classes so sample coding would have to be rather detailed.
Heres some more information about how I work with the conversion function module:
call function 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
       exporting
            i_field_seperator    = lv_field_seperator
           i_line_header        = lv_line_header
           i_filename           = lv_xml_file
           i_appl_keep          = ' '
            i_xml_doc_name       = lv_xml_doc_name
       importing
            pe_bin_filesize      = lv_result
       tables
            i_tab_sap_data       = gt_data
       changing
            i_tab_converted_data = lt_tab_converted_data
       exceptions
            conversion_failed    = 1
            others               = 2.
lv_field_seperator = X.
lv_xml_doc_name = Personalstammdaten Publikation
lv_result: type i
gt_data: fields: PERNR, PERSG, PERSK etc.
types:
begin of truxs_xml_line,
    data(256) type x,
end of truxs_xml_line.
types:
truxs_xml_table type table of truxs_xml_line.
data:
lv_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_line,
lt_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_table
open dataset lv_xml_file for output in binary mode.
loop at lt_tab_converted_data into lv_tab_converted_data.
transfer lv_tab_converted_data to lv_xml_file.
endloop.
close dataset lv_xml_file
lv_xml_file: /usr/users/.../.../Personendaten_2004-11-02.xml
Hope the information is detailed enough! Otherwise let me know. Thank you in advance.

Hi Raja,
tried the "TEXT" mode, but that didn't help.
There are still characters after the last tag, that are not supposed to be there including a date that is not
the creation date of the file.
Thank you for your help.

Johannes
