File Adapter Append issue

Hi Iam trying to write a write a file in append mode using a file adapter(on a file which already exits)...but it says...file already exists...What might be the issue...?
Thanks in advance!
Larry

Hi Guys,
I shall explain the issue Iam having...Iam using the File Content Parameters..and the output is a plaint text file(Flat File).We are using Dynamic file configuration to populate the file name as per our requirements.When I dont use the dynamic config...(giving the name in the communication channel) the file is created @ the first time and its getting appended the next time..But when I use the Dynamic Configuration the file is not getting appended and it leaves an error saying the file is already there and cannot be overwritten...
Please advise!
Thanks in advance!

File adapter - APPEND not working

Hi Everyone,
I want to append a text file on the target side. I am using FCC on the receiver side and the file construction mode is "APPEND" and file type is "TEXT". When i test my scenario, the file gets created for the first time and for the next time onwards, I get an error : "Target file already exists and must not be overwritten".
Kindly help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Laawanya

Check the below thread for the same:
Have you checked overwrite box?
It should be checked as well, and also check for necessary authorizations for this.

File Adapter Archiving Issue

Hi,
THe file adapter archives the file, it doesn't save the entire contents of the file in the archive folder, but saves the first recordset (row) only in XML format. Did any body face similar issue, and what's the resolution to archive the contents of the file, the way it was sent.
Thanks

File Adapter: FTP issue

Hello,
There is a problem with the file adapter of the XI30 SP14:
It is set to get a file from a server X using a FTP protocol.
INT_001_V01_COM_CTDCLNT600_FILE_SENDER
Sender Adapter v2300 for Party '', Service 'CTDCLNT600':

It seems everything is working fine, but the in the SXMB_MONI transaction, no message appears.
I have accessed the FTP manually and I have downloaded the file, so the connectivity issue is descarted.
Any suggestion.
Jesus Barba Lobaton

Hello all,
The current configuration of the Sender file adapter is:
Transfer protocol: FTP
Message protocol: File Content Conversion
Adapter Engine: Integration Server
Source Directory: /out
File: D_P.DAT
In FTP: the file D_P.DAT is placed under /out directory
Server: Server Internal IP
Port: 21
Connection security: None
User: userX
Pass: FTPuserX
Quality of Service: Exactly once
Poll Intervals: 60
Processing mode: Delete
File Type: Binary
How can I verify a log of the processing process? as the SXMB_MONI transaction does not show anything.
The most frustrating of all, is no error message appears. I have verified the XI, APPS and default trace logs with log viewer but there is nothing.
I have also checked this thread but none of the solution provide solved the issue

Socket connection time Out - Sender File adapter (Intermittent Issue )

Dear FrIends,
In our sender file adapter i am getting the following issue:
I have already places timout : 120 secs.
This isssue is occuring intermittently.
Error occurred while connecting to the FTP server "100.142.131.30:21": java.net.ConnectException: Socket connection timed out: 100.142.131.30:21

Hi Renu,
You need to increase the timeout Seconds and check.
Run the report RSFTP002.
and check whether the connection to FTP works. Provide the below parameters:
user = <your ftp user>
pwd = <your ftp pwd>
host= <your ftp host/ip>
command1 = <ls>
RFC Dest = SAPFTP
Compress = N
If the issue still exists, then check with your BASIS Team.

File adapter Deployment issue

Hi,
I have a process that use a file adapter which polles a certain directory.
I am developing on windows XP and I am deploying to a Linux
I can't leave the path of this directory as it is since it will not be recognized in the linux server
How do I solve this issue?
Amit

You can specify the Logical Name of the directory from which you want to read the file from. In the BPEL partner link of the bpel.xml file, you then provide the physical parameter value for the Logical Name. This resolves the mapping between the logical directory name and actual physical directory name.
For example you can specify Logical Name as InputFileDir and in the bpel.xml specify the physical value against the partner link for that file adapter, as following :
<property name="InputFileDir">C:/ora_home/integration/bpm/samples/tutorials/
121.FileAdapter/ComplexStructure/InputDir/</property>
So while development, you can specify the physical directory as in your Windows system, and at deployment you can specify the directory as in your linux system.

how can i solve this problem?can i predeploy some parameter? Is there some critical value of File size for the processing of File Adapter ?

Hi,
There is no specific parameters to specify the maximum file size to be read in. It is just limited by the heap size of the JVM running the BPEL engine.
If you have enough RAM on your machine you can change the current heap size from 512Mbyte to 1Go by editing the startorabpel.bat file
and modifying the line :
set MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx512m -Xmn300m -XX:MaxPermSize=80m
to
set MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -Xmn300m -XX:MaxPermSize=80m
But only do it if you have at least 1.5 Gb of RAM on your machine, otherwise ot will keep spawing and you will have very bad performance.
Speaking about performance, do you really need to have a BPEL payload of 4 to 12 Mb ?
Will the BPEL process really need to access it ? if so, the best solution would be using batching techniques to cut you file in pieces and process it piece by peice.

File Adapter Format Issue:.csv target

Hello
When i am trying to write information from DB to a file as a CSV format it is always writing into xml format, though it is named with .csv extension.
When you want to write the File as html target i need to do a html encoding but how to do it in another format like .csv?
Appreciate your help on this

you can refer this..
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28994/nfb.htm#CCGEGFDB
You need to create "JCA File Adapter with NXSD format definition" as mentioned in above link.

File adapter - Archive issue with adapter module

Hi All,
I have 2 issues here. We are currently using PI 7.11 EHp1 SP02.
1. Arhival with "add time stamp" wont work. It just gives us an error message saying simpledate format exception.
I have gone through the OSS note 1265534 and thought this will resolve the issue. But our BASIS team believes this note is only applicable for PI 7.1 SP01. Can you one using PI 7.11 SP02 comment on this?
Note: Archive option with out add time stamp works fine.
2. When I use adapter module in my sender file configuration, the archive option itself does not work. Read the official SAP help which says "To archive source files where a permanent error occurred during processing, set the indicator.
A permanent error occurs either during the conversion of the file content, or in a module in the module processor."
So the question here is, how do we make the error permanent? The only way to throw error from adapter module is using the ModuleException. It has 4 different constructors. I have used both
ModuleException me = new ModuleException ("My error Msg"); and
Module Exception me1 = new ModuleException ("Error String", new Throwable("My error Msg");
In both the cases, the archival wont happen.
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks
Jai

Hi,
I am using NFS protocol here not FTP. Sorry I dint mention that earlier.

Kindly let me know how to maintain a single <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> so that this file contents may be appended to my dtabase.
Thanks,

Hi,
To have the data to be appended we should have File content conversion at the receiver.Otherwise there will be a conflict with the nodes.

Receiver File Adapter - Encoding issue.

Hi Everybody,
The file format (encoding) is different to the format generally we used to get.
Currently we are get the flat files in DOS format.The current file when we are downloading it we are getting it in the UNIX or other format.
For eg: 20 has been changed to 0D in the file.
Can somebody help me on the same.
Thanks,
Zabiulla

Hi,
Check on this for file adapters
Text
Under File Encoding, specify a code page.
The default setting is to use the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system. The file content is converted to the UTF-8 code page before it is sent.
Permitted values for the code page are the existing Charsets of the Java runtime. According to the SUN specification for the Java runtime, at least the following standard character sets must be supported:
■       US-ASCII
Seven-bit ASCII, also known as ISO646-US, or Basic Latin block of the Unicode character set
■       ISO-8859-1
ISO character set for Western European languages (Latin Alphabet No. 1), also known as ISO-LATIN-1
■       UTF-8
8-bit Unicode character format
■       UTF-16BE
16-bit Unicode character format, big-endian byte order
■       UTF-16LE
16-bit Unicode character format, little-endian byte order
■       UTF-16

TargetFilename in the Outbound File Adapter

Hi all,
I have created an interface that sends projects form SAP PS (by tRFC) to a file directory (using an outbound file adapter). Each project is created as a individual file. All this works well, but the filenames created for the files are not very intuitive for the users looking at the files at the receiver point since there are quite a lot of similar files only distinguished from each other by a timestamp (usualy only separated by milliseconds).
Is there a way to make the file adapter append data from one XML tag in the file name? I.e:
file.TargetFilename='<project></project>'.txt
file.writeMode=addTimeStamp
giving i.e a file '1234567_timestamp.txt'
This way I can include i.e. the project number + timestamp as filename making it user friendly for the people using the files.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Best Regards
Odd Hilt

HI
Read the file without using key field. Just define the FCC parameters Header and Items PI will pick the file.
DT_Source
   Record
     Header 0..1
       PO_Number String 0..1
     Items 0..unbounded
       Items String 0..1
Do the FCC
Header.fieldnames PO_Number
other config for Header
Items.fieldnames Items
other config for items

Base64Binary OSB and File Adapter Issue

Hi all,
I am converting an xml to flat file after that i want to write the flatfile to a file using File Adapter in OSB.
So using java callout we converted the binary content to base64 string and we are able to write the data using file adapter .
But the file contains as extra line in between each line which my legacy system wont accept.
I printed the base64 string in the output file and when i decode that file using the website as safe decode as text i am able to get the correct file.
So where is the problem ? File Adapter ? Why i am getting extrace line in between each line . How to write safely using file adapter.
If i use file transport of OSB i am able to write without any issues but i want to write dynamic location so i am looking for file transport of OSB.
Thanks
Phani

Hi Anju,
Thanks for the response . If i decode the base64 binary data using this website if i use Notepad++ i cant see an extra line in the notepad++ it showing as below
Its a fixed length file 1 to 513 then next line so for the file transport it showing as below
ISA ............................
1 to 513 CRLF
For file adapter it is showing as below in the same notepad++ editor
ISA..........................
1 to 513 CR
CRLF
an extra CR so an extra line .
I used MFL and converted the xml to non-xml ( flat file fixed length file) for file transport i am i created another proxy message type Text .It is working fine
Added to the above problem i have another few questions on the file transport
How can append to an exiting file using File transport ?
How to change the File directory dynamically ?

File adapter issue in Linux enviornment
