Conversion Agent Error - CMException

Hi ,
We are trying to map an excel file to another system using conversion Agent for transformation. We have created the transformation in the Conversion Agent Studio and deployed the service in our integration engine on XI Server(in the serviceDB folder).
But the file is not getting transformed and the message is failing in the communication channel only giving the below errors . ( Runtime WorkBench - > Communication Channel monitoring ) .
The source file is getting picked up from the respective folder where it has been placed, and also the TransformBean is being called too.
"Attempt to process file failed with com.itemfield.contentMaster.CMException".
"Transformation failed : CMException : Failure while trying to create engine log .
D:/ConversionAgent/Log/Init/Events.cme"
Please let us know what parameters we have missed out due to which we are getting this error.
Thanks
Satish

XML to EXCEL with Conversion agent error: XML to EXCEL PROCCES FAILD

Hello,
I have scenario from Oracle database to Excel.
For this scenario I use with conversion agent by itemfield to transfer data from XML to EXCEL.
The scenario not worked.
Few points:
1. I add the conversion agent module to SAP XI receiver communication channel.
2. When I change the scenario to oracle to xml (without using conversion agent) the scenario works OK.
3. When I drag the CME file to the studio I found the error message: XML to EXCEL PROCCES FAILD.
4. I use with conversion agent in other scenario (EDI to IDOC) without any problem.
5. I'm not found any clue for this problem in XI RWB.

hi Elad,
to do the conversion,you have to define a module and import it into you CC.

Hi Nateesh,
Than ks for your reply. Min eis indeed the same symptom, but not the same cause. Interestingly, I do not see a reference to the the CMTransformBean in the JNDI browser of the NetWeaver Administrator. Thsat seems like a likely cause of the problem, but why is that ?

Error in Conversion Agent Module

I have tried to set up a scenario using conversion agent to transform a PDF file to XML. I followed the instruction steps in this blog <a href="/people/william.li/blog/2006/03/17/how-to-get-started-using-conversion-agent-from-itemfield:///people/william.li/blog/2006/03/17/how-to-get-started-using-conversion-agent-from-itemfield .But the communication channel can't work properly. I check the status of communication channel in RWB, and it gives following error message:
2007-03-14 10:22:00 Success Channel InvoicePDF_Sender: Send binary file "C:SharefolderDemoinvoice.pdf". Size 14378 with QoS EO
2007-03-14 10:22:00 Success TransformationName: InvoicePDF

However I have already granted the access permission of the event folder to user "<sid>adm" and "SAPservice<sid>". Even grant full control access to everyone for the folder, the issue remains unsolved. Hope someone can help to give some advice on my case. Thank you in advance.

HI,
The module name must be localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.nw.cm.xi/CMTransformBean.
The parameter name must be TransformationName.
The parameter value must be the conversion agent project name deployed in serviceDB. In the above example, the Tutorial_3 project from the documentation in step 1 is used.
And also it was failed to update the log.See the folder access onceagain.

Conversion agent; CMException: Request IF_EXEC2 returned null

Hi all,
"CMException: Request IF_EXEC2 returned null"
I'm trying to use a conversion agent serializer to ouput a file from PI 7.1 and am getting the above message in the receiver comm. channel monitor. No idea what it means.
This is my first use of conversion agent, so I'm not sure that everything is correctly in place, but the Conversion agent console set-up test works, and I've followed all the blogs I can find so I'm reasonably happy with it.
Executing the script from the CM console gives me the transformation I want, so my serializer seems OK.
The PI configuration scenario works fine if I use a receiver channel without the CMTransform bean module (i.e I get an xml file output), so that's OK.
I get nothing in the NWA logs.
I'm running out-of-process (64 bit PI system) and the console config looks OK per the admin guide.
Any ideas folks ?
Regards,
Guy

That's an odd thing.
When I run it in studio, it completes without any obvious error, but there's no "results" file.
We had initially installed the 32 bit version (when I was on XI 3.0), and I ran the studio on the XI machine and the results file showed in studio. But now, my studio is on my PC (not the PI machine).
However, all that aside, when I execute the CM_Console with my project I get exactly the output I expect...so I'm sure that the serializer is OK.

Error in XI while using standard EDI Libraries of Conversion Agent

Hi,
We are planning to use conversion agent for EDI to XML conversion using standard libraries.
Right now working on EDI 867 and is working fine in my local system. But when we moved the contents
to XI server, we are getting the following error

andResale_Report_parsers_segments.tgp(547): is_optional is not a known profile or PT*
Can anybody help us to solve this issue?

the services related to this interface are in the ServicesDB folder,and this service used to be running before on a previous UNIX server,Any Idea what needs to be changed while deploying the same Service on a Windows Server..?

Have you used Conversion Agent Module in Sender File Adapter --> Module, properly ?
Also check this module using CM_Console <Module Name>.
& check the result of your Conversion Agent Module there.

Hi Experts,
We are working on Conversion Agent for EDI - XI - IDOC, creating Parser in Conversion Agent, when we are using the same in Communication Channel, the file is not picked up from EDI Folder.
It is giving us one error "Error: java.lang.NullPointerException".

We have read many blogs and threads on SDN, but it is not making any help in our condition.
If anybody have complete scenario with screen shot, please give us that as it is urgent.
Please help,

SAP Conversion Agent: HL7 library project could not be executed

Hi experts
I'm using SAP Conversion Agent version 4.3.0 on a PI 7.0. I'm trying to use a HL7 library project. On the Conversion Agent Studio side everythings works fine: the library project is created and a test of the service with a local HL7 file was successful. After that I make the project on the Conversion Agent Studio available and copy the project from the local \SAP\ConversionAgent\ServiceDB directory to the PI Conversion Agent ServiceDB directory.
So far so good... but when I try to execute the CA project via File Sender Adapter the following error is thrown:
"Invalid service 'TEST'. Check service name and service database"
Module Exception 'com.sap.aii.af.mp.module.ModuleException: <Status><severity>4</severity><description>Invalid service 'TEST'.

I also created another parser project, without HL7 libraries, this works also on Conversion Agent Studio and on PI side without any problems.
Do you have any ideas?

I want to run a simple File to File scenario which involves integrating conversion

But when I run my scenario I found CM_TRANSFORMATION_ERROR as the error in communication channel monitoring.
Can u please provide me the solution for correcting the above error, this would be a great help for me..

INVOIC96a to EDI-XML by Conversion Agent fails, Special Character Problem

Hi,
with your help in another thread, I recognized that the EDIFACT INVIOC96a Parser of the Itemfield Conversion Agent has a Problem with special characters.
So like described in this blog SAP XI supports EDIFACT i created a Library Project and tried to test the conversion.
It is only working when no special characters are in the EDI file. If there a special characters insight the file, conversion agent say's no error, but the xml file is corrupted. In fact you can't display it in IE or by opening it with XMLPad it says "Not well formed".
Hope that someone has an idea for this problem
Thank you
regards

Hi,
I have already faced the same problem when using Itemfield Conversion Agent.
I solved the same with change properties of the project.
In conversion agent project :
opne the menu : Project --> Properties --> Encoding --> Change the output Encoding Schema (None).
use None in that schema in place of XML.
Your problem can be solved.

Conversion Agent Environment Variables.

Hi Experts,
We are using on Conversion Agent for converting EDI file data into XML.
Using Parser for this.
The problem is related to Enviornment Variables to be loaded on XI Server.
What will be the environment variables for this purpose and what will be the value for the same.
I have loaded three Environement Variable on XI Server for Conversion Agent,
1. CLASSPATH - C:\Program Files\SAP\ConversionAgent\api\lib\CM_JavaAPI.jar
2. IFCONTENTMASTER_HOME - C:\Program Files\SAP\ConversionAgent\
3. Path - C:\Program Files\SAP\ConversionAgent\bin
Are these entries correct ? Please help.
When I am using
To use the remote support interface:
1. In Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 6.0 or higher, browse to
http://HOST:PORT/CMViewer
Selecting Event : View Initialization Events, it is giving me an
error : Event file not found!
Selecting Event : View Execution Events, it is not showing any Date in
Date field and not showing any service in Service Field and Next
Pushbutton is also disable.
What is the problem ? Please help.
Regards,

Yes it shows up after restart of BIDS .
But during design time this is a bug I hope Microsoft fixes this bug in the future releases
Mudassar
It's not really a bug. Visual Studio loads the environment variables when starting up.
In future releases you use projects and parameters instead of environment variables, so the issue goes away ;)
