Error while opening PDF in mail attachment

Hi All,
In smartform i am sending a mail with attachemnt as PDF file,there is one more option like preview of smartform .
issue is like i am able to see the preview of the same record but when it is sent in mail attachement,and while opening PDF its showing error that file can not be open it is corrupted.
Please help.
Mona Singh.

Dear Sandra
That was my problem: binary data was incorrectly converted (often because of Unicode systems).
I returned
        bin_filesize          = v_len_in
        bin_file              = l_binfile
from the function module CONVERT_OTF, then converted the xstring data (l_binfile) into an internal table (t_objbin) to send to the mail send function with the following function module:
    CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
      EXPORTING
        buffer        = l_binfile
      IMPORTING
        output_length = v_lines_bin
      TABLES
        binary_tab    = t_objbin.
Many thanks for your help.
Best regards
Patricia

  • Error while Opening PDF attachment from Mail

    Hi,
    We two Output Types created ZNEU and ZAUF. Two Smartforms are created for the same Output Types. The Issue now is, When ZNEU triggers and send a mail the document is properly decoded and gets opened but for ZAUF it doesn't. It says File damaged.
    This is the code we have used for sending mail.

  • Getting error while opening pdf on server

    Dear All,
    I am working on jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0.
    I have a use case where on click of link , generating a dynamic pdf. The pdf i am arranging with the help of itext through backing bean. It is generating as well downloading the pdf.I have used filedownloadlistner to call the generate and download pdf methods.
    On integrated weblogic server the pdf is working fine, but when i deploy on server while opening pdf getting error :
    *"Adobe Reader could not open 'test.pdf' beacause it is either not a supported file type*
    *or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and*
    *wasn't correctly decoded)."*
    I am not able to get the root cause for the problem. The sample code to generate and download pdf is :
    // Generate PDF
    private void generatePDFFile(FacesContext facesContext,
    java.io.OutputStream outputStream) {
    try {
    System.out.println("In Generate PDF................");

    PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(FILE));
    document.open();
    addMetaData(document);
    addTitlePage(document);
    document.close();
    System.out.println("End of PDF......................");
    facesContext = facesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ServletContext context = (ServletContext)facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext();
    System.out.println(context.getRealPath("/"));
    String FILE = "test.pdf";
    File file = new File(FILE);
    FileInputStream fdownload;
    //BufferedInputStream bis;
    byte[] b;
    System.out.println(file.getCanonicalPath());
    System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath());
    fdownload = new FileInputStream(file);
    int n;
    while ((n = fdownload.available()) > 0) {
    b = new byte[n];
    int result = fdownload.read(b);
    outputStream.write(b, 0, b.length);
    if (result == -1)
    break;
    outputStream.flush();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    Download PDF
    private void downloadPDF(FacesContext facesContext, java.io.OutputStream outputStream) {
    try {
    facesContext = facesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ServletContext context = (ServletContext)facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext();
    ExternalContext ctx = facesContext.getExternalContext();
    HttpServletResponse res = (HttpServletResponse)ctx.getResponse();
    res.setContentType("application/pdf");
    outputStream = res.getOutputStream();
    System.out.println(context.getRealPath("/"));
    File file = new File(FILE); // FILE = 'test.pdf'
    FileInputStream fdownload;

    byte[] b;
    fdownload = new FileInputStream(file);
    //bis = new BufferedInputStream (new FileInputStream(file));

    break;
    outputStream.flush();
    outputStream.close();
    fdownload.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    If the pdf file don't open on the server where you created them, they won't open on the client side either.
    The code you are using should be refactored to use different file names for the generated files. In a multi user environment (which every web application is) you overwrite the file generated with each new request, even before the file is loaded by a client. This will corrupt the file a client is loading and you get the error you see.
    Next I would look into org.apache.commons.io package (http://commons.apache.org/io/) which has utility classes which allows easy handling of streams without looping over the data.

  • Error while opening PDF attachment sent via mail

    Hi,
    I am attaching PDF file to PO in me22n and sending the same file as attachment in the mail to the vendor using class CL_BCS.
    The mail is sent to the vendor successfully and they are able to successfully open the PDF attachment. But in some cases the mail is successfully received but while opening the attachment it is giving the error as file is corrupted.
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Thanks and regards,
    Jayashree

    Hi,
    I would like to know what font type, you are using in the forms.
    Ideally it should be HELVETICA .
    If you are using any other font in your style/form,try changing it to HELVETICA & Test.
    Also Check the OTF data at the call of gen. FM,before converting it to PDF.

  • Error While Opening PDF File in SAP Inbox

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing a weird error in SAP Inbox while opening a PDF files (both created by custom ABAP programs as well as the one attached to a new SAP Inbox message from my desktop & sent to my Inbox as a test).
    The error states that "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel.".
    I checked TCode DC30 also & found an appropriate program is already maintained for PDF.
    I couldn't make out more out of this error message. Any inputs in this regard will be highly appreciable.
    Regards,
    Shaurya

    Hi,
      Find out the FM that's generating the actual error through de-bug and analyze the same by looking in OSS and or SDN.

  • Strange error while opening pdf in Firefox

    Hi there,
    I have a strange problem with Acrobat 9 on Windows 7 64bit. When I click on a PDF file on websites, a white site opens and I get an Acrobat message, which is totally empty.
    In the error box there is just a question mark on a blue circle, an "OK"-button and the title line says "Adobe Acrobat". The PDF files won't open.
    That is something I have never had yet! When I choose "repair installation" from the Acrobat help menu - it works and I can open PDF files n the Firefox 3.5.5 browser - but about half an hour later I get the same error message again.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    Header 1
    Header 2
    Problem is on my end … I’m running on windows 2008r2 server  which has a computability problem with Acrobat Reader on client side ..Adobe is working out a fix….i wuill be switch back to the old server late today which should cure the problem If you wish to see the tech side of it Here's the official word on what the problem is, from MS tech support: In IIS7.5 we have implemented an optimization code that handles especially byte-ranges request whose result is a single range as follows. When a client makes a request of byte-ranges whose result is a single range, IIS 7.5 does not include the media type in the response! This seems to break Adobe-reader add-on in IE. In IIS7 and below we treated byte-ranges requests whose result is a single range the same manner as byte-ranges requests whose result is NOT a single range meaning that we all the time sent a media type in the response header. Example: The below request: Command: GET   + URI: /test.pdf   ProtocolVersion: HTTP/1.1   Accept:  */*   Range: bytes=153572-186237, 748935-750373, 748238-748934, 186238-411153, 750374-750792, 411154-486125, 486126-748237 … … Is equivalent to making a request to range 153572 - 750792 IIS7 will respond with - Http: Response, HTTP/1.1, Status Code = 206, URL: /test.pdf   ProtocolVersion: HTTP/1.1   StatusCode: 206, Partial content   Reason: Partial Content   ContentType: multipart/byteranges; boundary= … … IIS 7.5 will respond with   ProtocolVersion: HTTP/1.1   StatusCode: 206, Partial content   Reason: Partial Content   ContentType: application/pdf … … So in the case of IIS7.5, it is just like we are responding to a single range request “153572 - 750792 “  in which the HTTP RFC says that you should NOT send a media type in the response header! The IIS 7 and IIS7.5 behavior are both HTTP RFC compliant   A response to a request for a single range MUST NOT be sent using the   multipart/byteranges media type.  A response to a request for   multiple ranges, whose result is a single range, MAY be sent as a   multipart/byteranges media type with one part. A client that cannot   decode a multipart/byteranges message MUST NOT ask for multiple   byte-ranges in a single request. Adobe was finally able to recreate the problem on Friday, and they are supposed to be working on it.  (I don't know what their issue was with not being able to recreate it, but I did find out over the weekend that the behavior is different if the client you are using to browse the website is in a remote desktop session - everything seems to work fine.) Not sure what IIS Core team is doing, if anything.  Even if Adobe provides a patch, I'm not too sure about using 2008 r2 as public web server if it requires the client to have the latest and greatest plugin.  Microsoft may have the letter of the law on their side regards the RFC, but sometimes being right just isn't enough.

  • Rusty Solomon : Adobe Reader Error while opening pdf files

    Hello everyone,
    I have a systematic error opening PDF files with Adobe Reader X (10.1.1)
    "Adobe Reader has encountered a problem and needs to close. Please excuse us for the inconvenience."
    By waiting I installed Foxit but I would understand.
    I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled but it's still the same.
    Thank you for your answers in advance
    Rusty Solomon

    First I would try to update to 11.1.8.
    If that does not fix it, tell us your operating system.

  • Strange question mark error while opening pdf files in adobereader from SAP

    Hi Gurus
    We are having a strange intermittent problem with Adobe Reader. When we try to open PDF files from SAP Frontend we get an error pop-up. The pop-up does not have any text. The title of the pop-up has "Adobe Reader". There is a blue question mark and an OK button.
    This issue occurs few times a day
    This issue does not occur in Windows XP.
    Since past few weeks, we have been trying to find some error/warning/atleast some text in log files of SAP, OS, Adobe Reader, Registry entries, Event Viewer. So far, we have not found anything.
    SAP is not able to help as this issue occurs intermittently and said when they tried, the issue did not occur. They made two attempts and in each attempt they tried 10 times to reproduce the issue. This issue occurs intermittently.
    Environment
    SAP R/3 4.7 EE SAP_Basis 620 Support Package 61
    Windows Vista Enterprise
    Adobe Reader 9.0 and Adobe Reader 9.1 (tried with both versions)
    SAPGUI 710 Patch 12 (latest patch). It also occured in Patch 11. 
    Please suggest
    Thank you
    Pavan

    Thank you for the quick reply.
    We tried many notes from Service Market Place. Also, Windows Team is in contact with Adobe.
    As per Adobe's suggestions, we tried changing preferences of Adobe Reader. We think it might be a problem with SAP Frontend.
    Present status - Issue still exists. nothing works.
    Thank you

  • Error while opening PDF file downloaded  from database Blob column

    Hi All,
    I am working on jdev 11.1.1.4.0.
    In my use-case I am using filedownload Actionlistner on a link to get the PDF file stored in the database in blob field. These files are being uploaded from other use-case in adf only.
    After getting the dialog box to open/save/cancel for the PDF file when i click on open then i am getting an error *'Adobe Reader could not open 'abc.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type*
    or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly docoded)' for some files , and to my surprise I am able to open some files.
    When I open these PDF files separately from desktop I am able to view the content of each and every file in adobe reader.
    I dont know where the problem exactly lies , while uploading/downloading the file . Any ideas/thoughts to resolve this issue?
    Thanks
    Kanika

    Thanks a lot Timo...!!!
    I checked the PDF file downloaded directly from the blob column in DB, there only it is corrupted so must be the problem in uploading the file. I am checking the code line by line,, but no problem in setting the file content type,size etc.
    Here is the code snippet ..
    byte[] buff;
    buff = new byte[(int)length]; -- Length is the file size
    int bytesRead = is.read(buff);
    for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
    // int b = is.read();
    int b = is.read();
    if (b == -1)
    break;
    buff[i] = (byte)b;
    BlobDomain blobDomian = new BlobDomain((buff));
    TestVORow = (TestVORow Impl)TestVO.createRow();
    if(blobDomian != null) {
    TestVORow.setAttachment(blobDomian);
    am.getTransaction().commit();
    This seems to be Ok to me..the same issue, file is still corrupting.
    Any thoughts from your side ???
    Thanks
    Kanika
    The problem is resolved.
    Changes made are instead of
    InputStream is;
    used ... BufferedInputStream bis ;
    and after
    for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
    // int b = bis.read();
    int b = bis.read();
    if (b == -1)
    break;
    buff[i] = (byte)b;
    bis.close(); // use this close bufferedInput Stream.
    Able to open each and every file now..Thanks for your suggestions Timo and Frank.
