Download file from AL11 into CSV to load MD into BPC

Hi All
I have an issue in downloading file from AL11 which is in the form of CSV.
1) I have exported the masterdata for Costcenter using a Open hub.
2) The file is residing at the app server AL11 in the form of CSV.
3) I want to down load the file into CSV and upload that file into BPC NW for my costcenter diemension.
When i am downloading the file from AL11 , the total records are merged into one row, i cannot download same as it is available in AL11.
I have followed the HOW TO GUIED : HOW TO AUTOMATE MD LOADING IN BPC nw.
I m unable to get the file properly on to my PC.
could you please help me .
AK

You should open your file in AL11, then clicking 'List' then 'Save' you'll be able to download your file. There will be some header lines indeed.
You'd better use an open hub with your local client as destination if you need the file.

About "Upload and download files from ADF into blob type colum."

hi
Using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 I have tried the example available for download from this blog post by Jakub Pawlowski:
"Upload and download files from ADF into blob type colum."
at http://kuba.zilp.pl/?id=1
First a thank you to Jakub for this interesting example.
I have a question about a PDF file that I uploaded using the example.
The file has a size of 10445518 bytes.
After I upload that file, the blob column has a value with a size of 10445516 bytes, 2 bytes less.
SQL> select file_name, dbms_lob.getlength(stored_file) from blob_table;
FILE_NAME
DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(STORED_FILE)
ADF-DeveloperGuide-4GL-B25947_01.pdf
                       10445516If I download that file using the example, it has the same size as the blob value, 10445516 bytes.
If I open the downloaded file, using Adobe Reader 8.1.1, it first shows this message:
"The file is damaged but is being repaired."
After that, there is not problem using the PDF file in Adobe Reader.
I have tried this with both Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox 2.0.0.11.
I have also tried this with other (smaller) files, and those upload and download correctly.
question:
Why are those 2 bytes lost during upload?
many thanks

Hi!
I can only post you my code that works for me and as I said I had same problems but can't remember what solved them. My code:
public void fileUploaded(ValueChangeEvent event)
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    UploadedFile file = (UploadedFile) event.getNewValue();
    if (file != null && file.getLength() > 0)
      // here I have some messages written and a call to the method on AM to save the uploaded file to the DB
private BlobDomain newBlobDomainForInputStream(InputStream in)
    throws SQLException, IOException
    BlobDomain loBlob = new BlobDomain();
    OutputStream out = loBlob.getBinaryOutputStream();
    writeInputStreamToWriter(in, out);
    in.close();
    out.close();
    return loBlob;
private static void writeInputStreamToWriter(InputStream in,
                                               OutputStream out)
    throws IOException
    byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];
    int charsRead = 0;
    while ((charsRead = in.read(buffer, 0, 8192)) != -1)
      out.write(buffer, 0, charsRead);
   * Launch the upload - see fileUploaded() for actual upload handling.
   * @return null navigation event - we stay on this page
public String UploadButton_action()
    if (this.getMyInputFile().getValue() == null)
      FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
      FacesMessage message =
        new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_WARN, JSFUtils.getStringFromBundle("fileupload.emptyfielderror"),
                         null);
      context.addMessage(this.getMyInputFile().getId(), message);
    return null;
   * Setter for inputFile UI Component.
   * @param inputFile inputFile UI component
public void setMyInputFile(CoreInputFile inputFile)
    this.myInputFile = inputFile;
   * Getter for inputFile UI Component.
   * @return inputFile UI component
public CoreInputFile getMyInputFile()
    return myInputFile;
}fileUploaded is a valueChangeListener on inputFile and UploadButton_action is as the name says the action for upload button.
Hope this helps. If not, than your problem is probably not the same as mine was, although the message about file corrupted was the same.
Next thing you can check in this case is if your file exceeds max file upload size. I don't know the exact default value, but if the file is too long I think this upload logic will upload only a part of the file and save it to the DB which can also lead to the same file corrupted error.
You can set the max upload value in web.xml like this:
<context-param>

<param-name>oracle.adf.view.faces.UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY</param-name>

<param-value>5120000</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>

<param-name>oracle.adf.view.faces.UPLOAD_MAX_DISK_SPACE</param-name>

<param-value>15360000</param-value>
</context-param>

Download File from DMS into WD ABAP gives junk data

Hi Experts ,
I want to achieve following functionality in WD ABAP.
User should be able to upload and download any file ( in any fromat ) , to / form document management server.
Since user can upload / download any file so I am using a file download UI , which would open any file in a new window.
I have searched about this in SDN ([ link |https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/WDA%20Retrieve%20Data%20from%20DMS%20server]) and I have created a FM which gives me Xstring corresponding to the file in the DMS system.
then I pass this Xstring data to my context 'DATACONTENT' which is bound to file download UI (data property). But When I execute this application I am getting junk data in the new window. Please correct me where I am making a mistake.
following is the code in FM which in turn passes v_xstring ( of type xstring ) to WD ABAP . Then I bind this value to context
'DATACONTENT'.
wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATACONTENT' value = V_XSTRING ).

Thanks in advance

Hi Abhay,
I have used the belwo method to achive the same:
1) Call funtion 'CVAPI_DOC_GETDETAIL' to get the document details.This function module returns PT_FILES tables parameter
2) Loop at PT_FILES and call the 'CV120_GET_MIME_TYPE' funtion by passing DAPPL of PT_FILES to get the mime type.
3)call function 'CVAPI_DOC_CHECKOUTVIEW' by passing PT_FILES values form above retrived to the function module in this step
4)Loop at the content and convert to XSTRING using SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY
After getting the XSTRING,MIMETYPE use ATTACH_FILE_FOR_RESPONSE method of CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES to download the file

Upload and download files from ADF into blob type colum

i have a question about Kuba's example ( http://kuba.zilp.pl/?id=1# )
after you have upload the word documents, and when u click on the downoad button that document is open... i want to know if it is possibile that afer you have download the document, you make some changes on it and then to save these changes on the database? any idea if this can be done? Thanks in advance :)

If you download the entire application from that link, the create.sql file is included in the \DBModel\model\zilp\testcase\dbmodel folder
It's a rather complicated matter in my opinion. Download the app, open it in JDev and use debug-mode to go through it step by step, so you can try to understand everything that happens.
Good luck :)

Double quotes missing in CSV file but exist in text file from AL11

Hi I am sending a file to AL11 with one of the fields having double quotes Like "field value" . When i download into Text file i am seeing the quotes but not when download as CSV file from Al11. Any SAP notes for this . If i add multiple quotes ' """" ' to have in csv I am seeing more quotes in text file which is not accepted . Please reply if anyone worked on this before . Thanks Kamesh

The CSV file also has the quotes (check in notepad), but when opened in MS Excel, Excel has a feature to ignore double quotes and consider the comma inside the quotes as part of field, not as a field separator.

Issuse in Uploading a .CSV file from AL11 to Database table.

Hi All,
I have a .CSV file (UTF-8 format) which contains Chinese Characters.
I uploaded the file to AL11 and it shows that all teh data is correct in AL11.
Now i am using a program to Read file from AL11 and update a ztable but some of the characters are
modified and some are getting saved as junk characters.
Kindly let me know what can be done.
Regards,
Jose

Jose,
The issue is pretty much clear. Ask the IT team to change the regional settings for languages. Normally we don't have
access to Korean, Traditional chinese....etc.
You might be getting characters/symbols as ?? ##. Go ahead and change the regional setting.
This will solve your issue.

hi jijeesh,
   Welcome to SDN.
u can use to download file from application server to presentation server using the t/c CG3Y. in that it will ask the source file path and the target file path.
if u want to find the source file path in the application server, u can use the transaction AL11 to find that one.

Uploading and downloading files from a web app (Urgent!!)

Hi everyone:
I'm developing an application in PL/SQL to upload and download files from an HTML webpage. I congured the document table and the parameters necessary in the DAD of my application.
when I upload the file using my webpage that file info is automatically uploaded to the doc table. This is as far as I have gotten.
I need to do the following:
- Place the uploaded file into a column in another table in my database as part of a text message (think of it as an email message), and delete the file from the doc table (as this is thought to be a temp table that holds the file when uploaded from my webpage)
- Retreive the file so that it can be downloaded from another web page.
The file can be a PDF, WORD DOC, etc...
I now that I can do this with InterMedia but I haven't figured out how :(
Can anyone please point me to an example or some documentation that can guide me through the process.
DB VERSION: 8.1.7
IAS VERSION: 1.0.2.2
Thanks,
Carlos Abarca

The idea was for you to look at the code and get an idea of how to access the BLOB in the document table. IF you look at the procedure
insert_new_photo( new_description IN VARCHAR2,
new_location IN VARCHAR,
new_photo IN VARCHAR2 )
It shows how to access the blob that is stored in the document table. You can then copy this blob to your own table using the DBMS_LOB package.
Hope this helps,
Larry

How do you Place rtf files from LibreOffice into InDesign CS6

I am new to InDesign CS6. I am having a problem Placing LibreOffice rtf files into InDesign.
I am using LibreOffice 4.3.2.2, Lotus WordPro, and Windows 7. I am saving my work in rtf files. Each page has two columns.
Placing rtf files from WordPro into InDesign works with no problems, but - I wonder just how long WordPro will continue to work with Windows 7 so I would like to switch to LibreOffice.
When I Place a rtf file that has two columns from LibreOffice into InDesign, I get a loaded text cursor, but nothing loads. I can take this same file, remove the columns so there is only one column, and it loads just as it should. Further, if I load the one column file into a Master set up for two columns, the file loads into two columns with all the proper formating.
Please guide me in how to Place the LibreOffice two column rtf files into InDesign.
Thanks.
Carole

Thanks to everyone who read about my problem. I have solved it myself by using "RTF Import Options."

How do I move a downloaded file (from YouTube) to GarageBand so as to separate video from audio, then send audio to iTunes?

How do I move a downloaded file (from You Tube) to Garagband - so as to separate video from audio (which I will send to iTunes)

Create a new GarageBand "Movie" project, then import your movie into GarageBand, by dragging it from the "Movies" tab of the Media Browser into the Timeline. GarageBand will split the movie into a video channel and an audio channel. Delete the video/movie channel and use the "Share" menu to send the audio channel to iTunes (assuming you have iLife '11 GarageBand)
