EOIO service on Receiver FTP/File Adapter

Hi,
I have a scenario where I would like the sender adapter to be quality of service, EO (Exactly Once), and the receiver ftp/file adapter to be of quality of service, EOIO (Exactly Once in Order). Is there a way to change the quality of service on the receiver adapter only so that it differs from the sender adapter?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Unfortunately changing the QoS in the adapter module does not solve the issue. The message appears to be put into the queue prior to the module being called. Below is the audit log.
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success Using connection AFW. Trying to put the message into the receive queue.
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success Message successfully put into the queue.
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success The message was successfully retrieved from the receive queue.
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success The message status set to DLNG.
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success Delivering to channel: XXXXXXX
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success ChangeQoS: Module called
2007-10-26 09:58:30 Success File adapter receiver: processing started; QoS required: ExactlyOnceInOrder
As you can see the QoS has been changed to EOIO from the adapter module, but the message is still in Qos EO.
Am I missing something or is there another way this can be achieved? Can we do this in the mapping somehow before it ever gets to the AFW?
Thanks in advance.

Dynamic file name in receive FTP file adapter

Hi, All,
I have a ABAP proxy -> FTP scenorio. The sender side MT is like this:
<Sender_MT>
<FileName>abc.txt</FileName>
<Record>
      <TEXT>.......</TEXT>
      <TEXT>.......</TEXT>
     <TEXT> ......</TEXT>
</Record>
</Sender_MT>
I would like to output the data which are the values of the tags <TEXT> to a flat file with the file name of the value of <FileName>
I tried to use Variable Substitution in FTP CC. I set a val1 = payload:Sender_MT:1,FileName,1 . But I got an error says "Unknown structure 'ns0:Sender_MT' found in document'. I looked at the message monitoring. It shows payload <n0:Sender_MT>. not <ns0:Sender_MT>. I think that is why I got the error. Then I tried to use XSLT mapping. I set
<Receiver_MT>
<Record>
     <xsl:value-of select="ns0:Sender_MT/Record"/>
</Record>
</Receiver_MT>
But I get an error says "XMLParser: No data allowed here: (hex) 32, 64, 66(:main:, row:1, col:3): ".
Could anybody help me out? Thanks!
Jack
Edited by: Jack Mathew on Jun 4, 2009 6:22 PM

Dude this looks purely like a variable reference error. Have you mapped the the Filename field in the target too? UR XSLT mapping dosent seem to indicate that... run ur mapping test to check that..
Second ... if ur source structure is hierarchcially similar then var 1 should be -
payload:Receiver_MT:1,FileName,1

I also tried ftp directly fron the XI server using command line and also using winftp utility. In both cases I was successful to ftp the file. The ftp server says we need to run in only active connection mode.
I wonder if any one experienced same problem and how was it resolved? I appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Balaji

Srini,
Thank you for the reposne. THe Q.26 is as follows.
Q: I have configured a File Adapter channel to connect to an FTP server, but receive one of the following error messages in the adapter monitor:
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': SocketException: Connection reset
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': SocketException: Connection refused
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': ConnectException: Connection timed out
A: This problem is either caused by incorrect firewall / packet filter settings or an incorrect configuration of the FTP server. Also make sure that you have correctly specified the host name / IP address and port of the FTP server.
Changing the connection type from 'active' to 'passive' (or vice versa) might additionally help to work around the incorrect firewall configuration.
I was successful in transmitting file via ftp from XI box without any issues. If there are fire wall issues,command line ftp shall fail. I also verified that the file size is good after transmission. I have tried with both active and passive mode without any success.
By the way I have about 6 other ftp communication channels configured and working correctly from the XI box. Please let me know if you want me know.
Thank you,
Balaji

How to Create a Flat File using FTP/File Adapter

Can any body done workaround on creating the Flat file using FTP/File Adapter?.
I need to create a simple FlatFile either using of delimiter/Fixed length. using the above said adapters we can create XML file, i tried concatinating all the values into a single String and writing into a file, but it does not have proper structure
Can any body help me out on this..
Thanks

You can create a text schema while creating a File Adapter. If schema is specified for File Adapter, it takes care of converting XML into fixed length or delimited format.

Encoding in Receiver side file adapter

Hi All,
I have special characters in message structure. While writing the message to output file the special characters are not getting printed(getting replaced by '?'); I have tried using UTF8, ISO-8859-1 and other code pages related to latin characters; Still facing an issue. I have tried using Binary mode also.
I tried using similar encoding formats in sender adapter. It was working fine and all the special characters are visible.
Is this problem in receiver side file adapter? Any inputs on the same will be a lot more help ful.
Thanks in advance
Nik

Hi
I have é, à and some other characters in my source message structure. The same characters are visible in message monitoring. While writing to file, they are being replaced by ?
This type of character are generated using UTF-8
use the same for receiver
The default setting for code page is the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system.The content of the message needs to be converted to the corresponding code page before the message is saved as a file.
You should use this conversion only for plain text and not for XML documents. If you want to change the encoding of an XML document, then select the File Type as Binary and apply XMLAnonymizerBean as an additional module in the Module tab page.
Thanks

How to know file name in FTP/file Adapter

Iam new to FTP/file Adapter,
when ever we use ftp/file adpter,
afrter pick file from remote server/local system.
how can i fine filename,?
how can handling a fault,if file picked,but data is wrong ?
How we know the picked date, time of that picked file ?
please give me solution

Check this : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25178_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_propertys.htm#CHDJBDHC
Search for this topic : Table A-5 JCA Properties for Oracle File Adapter: Normalized Properties.
After the file has been picked up, you can easily fetch the file details using "jca.file.FileName" etc (see above).
Rest should be dealt by you, depending upon the scenario you have.

Problem With Receiver Communication (File Adapter)

Hi,
My SAP XI Version is 3.0 with Service Pack 7,I have a strange problem,
I have a flat file coming from Unix system,I need to convert this into XML and put a copy in the Archive mode and send the XML file,getting it converted into flat file format send it to the receiver.Here I have to do the content Conversion,So,I have done content conversion while configuring Sender and Receiver Communication Channel.
I am using NFS as Transport Proctocol.So, everthing was fine when i run the scenario,after activating.The Sender communication Channel is Archiving the files.But I am unable to see any file with receiver communication channel.
So,for this I have checked up with Adapter monitoring in Runtime Workbench. In my File Adapter My Sender as well as Receiver Communication Channels are in Green.They are mentioning that Sender Communction is sucessful and
RECEIVER COMMUNICATION IS Sucessful but no messages processed.
Can any one suggest what to do now.Everything is fine with Content conversion and Unix System.But my receiver is not receiving any messages.
Should any OSS notice or patch work needs to be applied.
Thank You,
KishoreJ.

Hi Kishore,
I Guess you should first see if the file is being picked......for that do the following.
While configuring your Sender File Adapter, let the mode be DELETE. This way, we will know if the file is being picked by the File adapter. The file will be deleted and you can be sure that it has been picked up.
Next, look into the RWB--> FILE ADAPTER and see the log of the file adapter
and also, you can see the flow of your message in the integration engine in SXMB_MONI.
Ans still if your message is not showing up in SXMB_MONI, please do as explained below.
Increase logging and trace level in:
SXMB_ADM -> Integration Engine Configuration -> Specific Configuration
Also create entries as follows in it:
LOGGING = 1
LOGGING_SYNC = 1
TRACE_LEVEL = 3
TRACE_LEVEL_PROPAGATION = 1
Also refer XI: I cannot see some of my messages in the SXMB_MONI

Dynamic configuration of Receiver FTP File channel

Hi,
The scenario is sending an IDOC from an R/3 system (using IDOC adapter) to a FTP file system. I want to dynamically configure the filename and the target directory in the following cases
1. With filename and the target directory coming as a part of the source IDOC
    structure
2. There is mapping involved (pass thru) and the file name and target directory are
    NOT a part of the source IDOC structure.
I have seen blogs which explains the situation using mapping for File-To-File scenario (Not IDOC-To-File scenario) and some blogs explaining for Http adapter and email adapter, but not for the above scenarios for IDOC-To-File Scenarion.
Your input is highly appreciated.
Regards
Ganesh

hi
use Varable susbtituion in receiver file adapter
you set the Enable indicator, you can enter variables for the Target Directory and File Name Scheme. Enter the names of the variables and references in the table.
●      Enter each variable that you reference in the Target Directory and File Name Scheme fields without the surrounding percentage sign under Name of Variables in the table.
The variables can refer to attributes of the message header or elements of the message payload.
○       If the variables are to refer to an attribute of the message header, add the prefix message: to the name of the variable under Reference. You can specify the following attributes of the message header:
sender_party, sender_service, receiver_party, receiver_service, interface_name, interface_namespace,
message_id (message ID with hyphens, for example 9fbe1ff1-9a0d-11d9-8665-cbf10a126331)
message_id_hex (message ID in hexadecimal format, for example 9fbe1ff19a0d11d98665cbf10a126331)
For example, if you want to specify the interface name from the message header in the target directory or in the file name scheme, enter message:interface_name as the reference.

How to transform data received from file adapter

hi',
I am reading the data from XML file using file adapter, now I want to write the same contents which I have read from this file to a different/new XML file, the issue is I am unable to perform a transform here, when I use a transform with source element as the output of the file read and target as the input to the new file it is writing an empty file,
I have checked the audit trail which showsme that the transform is empty.
please tell me how can I transform the element which I have received from one file to make them as input to next file
thanks

I am reading XML file, I will describe my process.
1.) File adapter>read operation ---> receive activity
2.) Transform > source(receive input variable) <--->target(Invoke input variable)
3.) File adapter > write operation ---> invoke activity
Now when I am deploying this process it is sucessfully completing and able to read the file.
when I check the audit trail receive activity shows XML data but when I check the transform it
shows empty as below, however the write activity is performed which creates a xml file but no values in the elements
transform in audit trail

FTPS file adapter setup fields not visible after SP13 install

After installation of SP13, I was looking for file adapter FTPS setup (fields described in SP13 release notes). I could not see any. It's just like the old adapter.
Java cryptolib is installed, and we checked it is there.
we recycled the whole thing.
Any idea what could be missing ?

Solved. We had applied SP12 file.
Note that this originates from the SP stack download tool.
We had followed the generic download process and it did not contain the SP13 tpz file.
I tried again this morning, when selecting source sp11 target sp13, The selection of packages selects
SAPBASIS12_0-10002900.zip... and not the SP13 one.
Watch out if you move two SP up !
Detailed solution :
Downloaded the SP13 zip file. the following way.
service.sap.com download/entry by app grp/sap content
process integration (XI content)/ XI_CONTENT_SAP_BASIS/ XI_CONTENT_SAP_BASIS_6.40/DB independant/ selected sp13 from the list
Unzipped, and put the tpz file in the import directory
of the repository. file name is XI3_0_SAP_BASIS_6.40_13_02.tpz
Imported it
And it works now
Thanks a lot for your help.

Problems in FTPS file adapter

Hi,
I have configured a sender file adapter to use FTPS.When I lookinto the adapter monitor the corresponding communication channel has a red symbol saying 'Error: Error connecting to ftp server 'dev-db1':
FTPEx: Please login with USER and PASS'.
I have deployed SAP Java Cryptographic Toolkit.
I have added the CA certificate to the key storage.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hi Suneel,
Looks like in your CC configuration you still have "Connection Security" as none.
You should select one of the 2 FTPS options. Then verify the "Command Order" and check if X.509 is used for client authentication.
Pls check the following for details:

FTP/File adapter issue (polling one file at a time)

Hi,
I have come across an interesting scenario. I have a folder in which many files are placed at once (around 20+).
In my adapter I need such a logic that whenever file adapter polls the directory, it should only pick one file, wait for the specified time (in PollingFrequency interval or maybe some other way) and then poll the next file. Right now it polls all the files in one go.
Is there any property that I can use or any other logic that can help me achieve this?
Thanks.

Hi, You can use MaxRaiseSize property. Set its value to 1.

Problem in Receiver side File Adapter using FTPS mode

Hello,

Can anyone help me out in solving this issue ASAP?
I am using Per file transfer mode ni the reciever channel.
Thanks in advance,

Soorya

HI Surya,
First check wether server started or not and then check you are connecting to FTP server by
go to run -> cmd and write ping and ipaddress which is used and see whether u r getting reponse from teh FTP server.
Try to login to the ftp server which you have mentioned in CC using the user name and pwd, to chk whether you have the permissions to login to the server.
Also the check whether the folder you are trying to access is having permission for delete/read/write.
Restart the FTP server and try it again.
