Content conversion in sender file adapter problem

Hello,
I receive a flat file with the following structure:
HEADER;...fields;
ITEM;...fields;
ITEM;...fields...;
HEADER;...fields;
ITEM;...fields...;
...etc.
and I am converting it to xml with the same structure. The Problem by the conversion is that the result looks something like this:
HEADER;...fields;
ITEM;...fields;
ITEM;...fields;
ITEM;...fields;
HEADER;...fields
HEADER;...fields.
So, all the ITEM recordsets are ordered to one HEADER structure and the other HEADER structures have no ITEMs.
Do you have a suggestion how I can get this right?
Thanks!!
Best Regards,
Mircea

Hi,
Can you provide with the details of FCC parameters you have used ??
The problem might be there in the occurance..

My issue is, How do I set my parameter in Sender Comm channel for content conversion especially at record structure.
I have provided the value as Header,1,Content,*
But its not working.
If I do provide like
BGN_REC,,REF_REC,,DTP_REC,,N1_REC,,INS_REC,,NM1_REC,,PER_REC,,N3_REC,,N4_REC,,DMG_REC,,HD_REC,* then ,I am not getting above XML format. Please suggest or How can I modify my Data type which competes to configure in Channel
Thanks

Content Conversion Issue - sender File adapter..!!

Hi All ,
Input file:

T     7
I have 4 segments (Header,Detail,Text,Trailer) with "|" as the field separator and HD,DTL,TXT,T are the Keyfields
I need to get the xml structure like below heirarchy. Text segment has to come under Detail structure. Header,Detail and Trailer has to be in the same position.
Recordset
--Header
--Detail
Text
--Trailer
After completion of content conversion, I am getting the XML structure in the below format. All the segments are coming in the same hierarchy.
Recordset
-Header
-Detail
-Text
-Trailer
Text segment has to come under Detail segment. I used the below parameters for FCC.
Recordset Structure: Header,1,Detail,,Text,,Trailer,1
Recordset Sequence: Variable
Header.fieldSeparator
Header.keyFieldValue
Header.fieldNames
Detail.fieldSeparator
Detail.keyFieldValue
Detail.fieldNames
Text.fieldSeparator
Text.keyFieldValue
Text.fieldNames
Trailer.fieldSeparator
Trailer.keyFieldValue
Trailer.fieldNames
Kindly suggest me wat went wrong and how to solve it by content conversion.?
Thanks
Deepthi

Hi All,
Thank you for your replies.
I thought of doing it in mapping . My map is like
DTL -
> E1EDP01
TXT----
> -
EIEDPT2
According to my scenario when ever DTL comes then E1EDP01 has to come and EIEDPT2 has to repeat untill next DTL comes.
Ex: 1DTL and 4TXT segments .So the output will be..
DTL -> E1EDP01
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
DTL -> E1EDP01
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
Right now I couldn't able to generate the above target XML. Everytime I am getting all the TXT segments under one DTL segment like below.
DTL -> E1EDP01
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -

EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -
> -
EIEDPT2
TXT -

EIEDPT2
Any suggestions how we can get rid of in mapping?

Problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter

Hi All
I have a problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter.
This is my recordset structure: Header_Record,1,Claim_Record,*,Check_Rec,1
These are the content conversion parameters:
Header_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Header_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Claim_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Claim_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Check_Rec.fieldSeparator = ,
Check_Rec.endSeparator = 'nl'
In SXMB_MONI, i can see that the data is correctly extracted from proxy, and correctly mapped to receiver message, and i see a checkered flag (success).
But, Adapter status is RED with the following error message:
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter '1.fieldFixedLengths' or '1.fieldSeparator' is missing
In communication channel monitoring, i get the following error message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages
What is going wrong here? Can anyone please tell me?
Thanks

Sender File Adapter Problem when text document is a single line.

Hi All,
I have posted this question earlier too. But did not get a proper answer.
I am using File adapter to fetch data from a file system.
My input data is: AA123BB45678AA345BB78564.
It is just reading the first segment i.e.AA123 and not reading the remaining.
How can I configure my Sender File adapter to pick this pattern of data? It works fine if I have line break after each record that is if the input is as below.
AA123
BB45678
AA345
BB78564
In the above there is a Line break after each segment. So File adapter picks it fine.
I have also tried using xml.A.endSeparator equals to blank in the module configuration. But it does not work either.
Can anyone throw some light to this?

Abhi
I tried a different approach to send your file data In..
You can get each line in the source structure in separate row as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:SingleRowDT xmlns:ns="http://xxxxx.com/xi/pocs/sriram">
- <Recordset>
- <row>
<rowElt>AA123BB45678AA345BB78564</rowElt>
</row>
- <row>
<rowElt>AA123BB45678AA345BB78564AA123BB45678AA345BB78564</rowElt>
</row>
- <row>
<rowElt>AA123BB45678AA345BB78564AA123BB45678AA345BB78564AA123BB45678AA345BB78564</rowElt>
</row>
</Recordset>
Now you can use a suitable mapping logic to split the individual records into the 2 field structure as expected in the target..
Trying your way would be a limitation on file adapter I think..Let me know if this helps..I can give you the content conversion config for this model..
its simply
RecordSet - Leave it empty
RecordSet Seq - Row, *
Recordsets/msg - *
row.fieldSeparator - 'nl'
row.endSeparator - 'nl'
row.fieldNames - 'rowElt
..So each line will be pulled into a single Row in the source structure and then u can apply a specific mapping to split into 2 fields for your target

Sender file Adapter, problem with proxy authentication

HI all,
i'm having some problems with the following scenario, i need to configure a sender file adapter which connects to a FTP server. To connect this FTP server i need to set a proxy (and so a username and a password), and i don't know how to do.
From note 821267 seems that the proxy is not supported for an FTP adapter, but the are some workaround like the ones described in the following link
Re: Proxy server inFTP adapter
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=57137
They don't work in my case as i need to se two username (the one for proxy and the one for the ftp server) and i cannot force the proxy use for all XI applications.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot
Aldo

Proxy is necessary to exit the customer local intranet. It's not possible to go outside network without going through the proxy server.
I cannot set the proxy server in file adapter as it's not supported like described in SAp note, a possible workarounf is to force the proxy server in the J2ee stack but in this way all PI calls would use that proxy..

Content conversion in Sender JMS Adapter

Hi,

TRAILER(Occurance 1)
     ISOCURCD
     TRANKODE
      TRANCOUNT
According to How to use content conversion in JMS guide from SDN i have configured the content conversion parameters in the module of JMS sender adapter.
In the processing sequence given the module name as localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean and module Key as Plain2XML.
And in module configuration
Parameter Name                      Parameter Value
Transform.Class                          com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.Conversion

xml.HEADER.fieldNames           Field1,ISOCURCD,TRANKODE,IDENTIFIER,DATO,TIME
xml.HEADER.fieldSeparator                     ";"

xml.fieldSeparator                                      ";"(if i don't use this then the file is not being picked and getting an error in the CC monitoring of RWB saying xml.field separator missing.)
Similarily for Detail and Trailer records as well.
But when I run the scenario, the file is being picked up but I am not getting any payload into the inbound message.
Can you please help me where I have configured wrongly. And one more thing will this configuration help for ; separated file .
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar

Thanks in advance

There is nothing wrong in your content conversion parameters. This is pure editors interpretation for the next line character.
I would do in java program to fix this issue using '\r\n'   You might want to try and see how that helps for notepad editor.

Content conversion in Reciever File Adapter

Hi Frens,
Iam doing A FCC in Reciever file adapter. My input structure is
DT_structure
->Record
->Row
       Field1
       Field2
       Field3
I have donr the configuration as
Recordset Structure : Record,Row
Row.fieldSeparator : ,
Row.endSeparator : 'nl'
Record.fieldSeparator : 'nl'.
With this configuration Iam able to display only one record but I need to display multiple records in the file. Please do suggest me wha need to be done to achieve this.
Radhika.

First check whether your datatype has the occurrence of records unbounded or not. Then goto content conversion. If both your Record and Row tags can occur multiple times, then use
Recordset Structure : Record,*,Row,*
Or if Record occurs only once and multiple Row nodes are required, then use
Recordset Structure : Record,1,Row,*

Reg:File content conversion for Sender File Adaptor

Hi all,
            i would like to know , how the file content conversion is written for the below mentioned XML code. The flat file will have only the table name and the fieldname
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Mt_File xmlns:ns0="http:/file_to_idoc">
   <query_table>ztable1</query_table>
   <row_count/>

      <item>
         <fieldname>zempno</fieldname>
      </item>
   </Fields>
</ns0:Mt_File>

First you create the conversion rules, then you create the XML structure accordingly, not the other way.

Sender File Adapter - Problem with field separator

Hi,
I want to upload a CSV file into XI.
The file contains a text part which uses from time to time quotation marks like this:
SD,575757,383838,N/A,XYZ,"This is a text part",7676
But besides there are lines like this:
SD,575757,777722,N/A,XDE,FREETEXT,7575
Has anyone any idea how to configure the file adapter to get it recognize the quotation marks not as field separator?
I've already tried the enclosureSign parameters but that leads to an total unconverted line.
Is it maybe possible to customize two field separators like this:
Structure.fieldSeparator - ,"
Thanks for any answer,
Christina

No, it doesn't work.
I've specified now:
Structure.fieldSeparator        ,

Structure.enclosureSignEscape   ""
Every line without quotation marks is converted fine. Lines with quotation marks stay like in the original CSV file and the whole line is put into one XML tag (still comma separated).
Also the parameter fieldContentFormatting - nothing doesn't make a difference.
Other ideas?

Sender File adapter problem

Hi,
I have File to JDBC sceanrio, File is on FTP server and data is added in file in every 15 mint. while adding data to file its takes some time.
My problem : when data is being added to file, sender adapter picks the file when addition of data is not completed. so it picks incomplete file and send to target.
What can be the possible solution to be used for this problem or what configurtaion can be done in CC required.
Thanks
Laxmi Bhushan

Hi Laxmi,
is PI picking file in NFS mode or FTP mode?
With NFS mode, you can use setting wait for file modification check. Same setting is available for FTP but it doesnt not work for FTP.
Another option could be ask Source system to generate file with a temporary name & rename once file is writen completely.
