File Adapter - File Name with umlaut

Hi,
does anyone know if XI is able to process files
which names contain an umlaut e.g. "täst.xml" or "töst.xml"?
In our scenario the file adpater always polls on the specified directory but files with an umlaut in their name
are not processed. In the communication channel we specified the filename with a wildcard (*.xml).
In the adapter monitor the files are shown as processed even though no messages are shown for example in sxmb_moni.
As further information: Files without an umlaut in their name are processed correctly.
Thanks for any help.
Holger Wehage

Hi Holger,
as you wish
file channel:
*.xml
Send binary file "öööö.xml" from FTP server "ftp.server.com.pl:/pub/change/nozabs/", size 246 bytes with QoS EO
I can see it in sxmb_moni so it works
hope this helps
but at least you know that it works with umlaut
Regards,
michal

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

When i tested the scenario and monitored it using MDT in CC monitoring tool its giving me below mentioned error.
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
XML document must have a top level element. Error processing resource 'http://myurlname/mdt/me...
However if i change the occurence of DATA as some specific value for eg 4 instead of * it works fine.
Kindly help me in solving this problem.

File and directory names with Danish characters

I have installed the Novell Client v2.0 for Linux on my Open Suse 10.3. The Client is connecting to my Netware servers (6.0 & 6.5) without any problems...
There is one problem... Filenames and directory names with the Danish , & (ae, oe & aa), e.g the filename bger.doc (bger = books) is shown as b. and when clicking the file the file disappears from the file list. It seems to be the same problem with the German (umlaub).
What to do?

As far as I know, the Novell Client for Linux expects that file and
directory names use the UTF-8 encoding and does not support a traditional
8-bit encoding like ISO 8859-1. Try changing the encoding of file and
directory names to UTF-8 as described in
SDB:Converting Files or File Names to UTF-8 Encoding - openSUSE
HTH,
Ray Dassen
Technical Support Engineer, EMEA Services Center, Novell Technical Services
Novell, Inc. Software for the Open Enterprise Software for the Open Enterprise
Seems a good hint. When I create a folder or file from within SUSE using an "Umlaut" everything is OK and NCL 2.0 displays them correctly as they are UTF-8 formatted.
The proposed tool is no solution: one cannot convert folders or files that one cannot see (does it work for folders at all?). Maybe a windows tool would work because one could search for all files or folders with "Umlaute" and convert them. Other options?

Sender File Adapter : File Name Determination

Hi All,
My Scenario :
1) Im my scenario i need only the "FileName" of the File when picked up by the Sender File Adapter.
2) Rest Content of the File need not be in the XML file format.
Now what i did was developed "File Adapter Module " to get the "FileName" when picked up by the Sender File Adapter.
Outcome : When i put the developed module at first and put the file in specified folder allowint the Sender file Adapter to pick up. Now Everything is fine working when one kind of File is placed as per my Content Coversion paramaters.
Actual : My Client would place file of any kind (.jpeg -> Mostly , gif ) i need to get only the file name in the Outbound interface , which i would split it further to my Target Interface.
How could i achieve this , when i took away this content conversion , in sxmb_moni it shows error.I need only the filename in the Outbound not the Content , moreover the hit is i donot know what could be content of my file as it could be different and varing , so i could not set particular content conversion paramters:
Second Question:
Now my outbound XML interface looks as below when i test with a file , with proper content conversion paramerters:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <MT_DMS_FINAL>
- <Record>
- <Row>
<FirstName>2323_eer_rtr</FirstName>
</Row>
</Record>
<FileName>d:\mdmtest\srinivaS\padusrini.txt</FileName>
</MT_DMS_FINAL>
Well i have designed in my MI only FirstName , how to capture this element "FileName" which i can use it in mapping , if i have to write any UDF to capture it ,please guide me.
thx in advance for u r help
with regards
Srini

Hi Guys ,
Can i use File Content Conversion for .pdf document , my pdf doc content is not known, means it"s a complete info doc.I may get .jpeg any picture or drawing.
I thought i can use below file content conversion paramters:
Document Name : MT_DMS_FINAL
RecordSet Name : Record
RecordSet Structure : Row,*
Row.fieldNames - FirstName
Row.fieldSeparator - ;
Row.processFieldNames - fromConfiguration
Row.additionalLastFields - ignore
Row.missingLastfields - ignore
Now i put a pdf doc of unknown content , and my assumption was some set of charater would be dumped in XML and rest would be ingonered which is least bothered part in my scenario , unless i get the filename from runtime ot Adapter module developed
But in RWB CC monitoring i see below error :Error: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Illegal XML character: .
Any views on this , can any one help me out with the above requirment. Hope u guys got wat am trying to put out here
thx in advance for u r help

Sender file adapter, file existence check in archive folder if exists rename the same and proceed with current file

Dear SAP Gurus
Interface flow:
File --> File and RFC.
We have a requirment where PI needs to check the file existency in archive folder and if there is a file already exists with same name we need to rename that file and archive the current file as is...
Note* Customer don't want to add time stamp!!!!
For ex today first message processed with file name "UBMO_delta20140626.xml" and archived as is- UBMO_delta20140626.xml
and customer sends a second file on the same day with same name(UBMO_delta20140626.xml) in this case before archiving PI needs to check whether there is a file exists already in archive folder or not if there is, then it should rename the same like(UBMO_delta20140626_1.xml) and proceed with current message processing and archive the same name(UBMO_delta20140626.xml).
Many Thanks in advance...

Hi Nagesh,
I think you can use the feature of run operating system command before message processing. you can refer the below wiki for information.

Sender File adapter File Conversion with key fields

Please help me guys, I already spent way too much time on this!
I checked a couple of BLOGs and I think I'm doing the right thing except I'm not getting the result I would expect.
I'm trying to create an IDoc using the from a flat file.
I get the following error:
During the application mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_TEST_ a com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException was thrown: RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformatio~
The Source file is this:
H
L0015
The file adapter does create the XML below (looks fine):
<ns:MT_SINGLE xmlns:ns="http://PPSC_TO_BO_INVOICE">
<HEADER>
     <ID>H</ID>
</HEADER>
<LINE>
     <ID>L</ID>
     <SITE>0015</SITE>
</LINE>
</ns:MT_SINGLE>
When I test the map in IR, with the XML that this file adapter created (above) it works fine!
Also if I take away the HEADER from the source structure everything works fine and I can create the IDoc, therefore I think something must be wrong in the file conversion, the mapping is so simple there is nothing to fail there.
The file conversion parameters that I have:
Document Name: MT_SINGLE
Document Namespace: http://PPSC_TO_BO_INVOICE
Document Offset:
Recordset Name:
Recordset Namespace:
Recordset Structure: HEADER,1,LINE,*
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
Recordset per Message:
Key Field name: ID
Key Field Type: String (Case-Sensitive)
LINE.fieldNames: ID,SITE
LINE.fieldFixedLengths: 1,4
LINE.keyFieldValue: L
HEADER.fieldNames: ID
HEADER.fieldFixedLengths: 1
HEADER.keyFieldValue: H
What am I doing wrong???
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Viktor Varga

Hi Viktor,
Basic rules:
1. Down load XML payload(output From Adapter) and test it in IR mapping program. If it is working there is no reason why it will fail in Runtime. Also Check Cache is up to date.
Generally the problem lies with namespace.
Hope this helps

File Adapter: File name when using event

I'm using the Bea file adapter 7.0 to retrieve ascii files from the file system
and this triggers a business process in WLI. Is there any way that you can get
the name of the file when doing this? And is there a way to dynamically name a
file when you write it to the file system using the file adapter?

Dear Prakasu,
In reply to your help
"Select the Time out tag.
Fill the require time limit.Like if you want to process a file with in 10 min then maintain 10 min.
If the file is not transfered with in 10 min then adapter consider an error and through the error.Use alert for adapter errors and send the alert."
I didn't find Time Out in sender Adapter,Time Out Flag is visible in OS CMDS..
Can you explain me in more details..
Thanks

Remove "header" related attributes from the "schema" tag.
===================================
nxsd:hasHeader="true"
            nxsd:headerLines="1"
            nxsd:headerLinesTerminatedBy="${eol}"

And then, define another element like "Record" to read the header data.

Hi,
Please change the File Encoding in the sender file adapter to <b>ISO-8859-1</b>.
Please look into this link,.

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:

File adapter: file processing in correct sequence

Hello All
We have inbound file scenario.
File will be picked up and processed by XI and sent to SAP system.
All the files have to be processed in the same sequence.
Once the file is picked and processed in XI, data will be sent to receiving SAP system thru proxy call.
But, if there is an error in processing received data in the receiving system (because of duplicate data or any other application related error, which is specific to receiving application), how can we stop XI from picking and processing the next file?
Second file should be picked and processed by XI only after 1st file is successfully processed by the receiving system.
How can i ensure this?
Please let me know...
Many Thanks
Chandra

Hi Chandra
If you are on NFS then you can enable Processing Sequence by Name or Date in sender file adapter. With this you need to implement EOIO this allows messages to be picked in sequence and process in queue. If one of the file failed the queue will error.
To avoid more than one thread processing you can use additional parameter "clusterSyncMode" refer Note 801926.
With the above other solution can be creating a SYNC or interface that can act as an ACK from the system then you process the next message. BPM can also be useful if you use Fault messages and capture them for errors for processing of next message.
Hope above info can be used to come to a final approach for you
Thanks

File Adapter - File Content Conversion to XML last element missing

I'm using the SAP File Adapter with File Content Conversion to convert | (pipe) delimited records into XML.
When the last field is blank, I would expect that an empty node gets created, however, the node doesn't get created at all.
For example given these settings...
Record.fieldSeparator = |
Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Record.fieldNames = FIELD1,FIELD2,FIELD3
Using this three record file as my data...
|123|XYZ
ABC||XYZ
ABC|123|
When converted to XML, this is what the recordset XML structure looks like...
<Recordset>
<Record>
<FIELD1 />
<FIELD2>123</FIELD2>
<FIELD3>XYZ</FIELD3>
</Record>
<Record>
<FIELD1>ABC</FIELD1>
<FIELD2 />
<FIELD3>XYZ</FIELD3>
</Record>
<Record>
<FIELD1>ABC</FIELD1>
<FIELD2>123</FIELD2>
</Record>
</Recordset>
Notice that the last record is missing the "FIELD3" element.

That did the trick. It was a typo. Thanks Giuseppe.
I'm willing to bet that this parameter was added to fix the parsing bug without breaking existing users that had already worked around the original bug. You shouldn't really have to special case the last field.

Sender File Adapter - File Content Conversion

Hello,
i do have a problem with the file content conversion at the sender file adapter.
I have configured the file content conversion with key field defined
keyfield: key
recordsetstructure is set as head,1,item,*
head.fieldSeparator |
head.beginSeparator |
head.endSeparator |
head.keyFieldValue H
head.fieldNames key,....
item.fieldSeparator |
item.beginSeparator |
item.endSeparator |
item.keyFieldValue I
item.fieldNames key,....
When i run it like this it will not read since it has a problem to identify the key fields.
When ever i change the whole logic to be not based on fieldseparator but on fixed length, everything is working perfectly fine.
but this unfortuantly doesn't help as i have no fixed structure for the rest of the fields.
also when i change the recordsetstructure to head,1,item,1 my file is also processed correctly, of corse only for the first line, it at least tells me that the file structure is correctly defined.
Can anyone help why the identification for the keyfields doesn't work with field names and separator but in the same set up with fixed lengths ?
thanks a lot

Hello All,
thanks for the helpful answers.
So i tried Jayan tip and removed the begin Separter.
Unfortuantly my file is really looking like this |H|...|...| for the header record
and for the item record |I|...|...| ( this was an" I" like in Item ...
In my opinion this means i really do have a begin seperator which is the same like the field separator.
When i removed it from both the file and the config it started to work.
So i wrote an java function which will trow away the first digit in this case and integrated it in my szenario.
So that when this file is read there is no | as a begin flag anymore.
And the whole thing starts to work, this sounds more like a bug then a feature but anyway i am happy.
so thanks a lot

File Adapter - file naming convention

We are on SP11.
Is is possible to have customer defined file name. I would like to create text file with timestamp but with my own date time format.
Thank you,
Parimala

Michal,
We just got on SP12.
I'm now trying to enter variable data for the file adapter. In the file name, I have %var1%
I selected active flag in Adapter status, as per help.sap, I need to see a table so I can enter var1 with ref field (from payload).
I don't see any table for that. I do see Adavance Mode and when I select this I see additional parameters. Is it here?
SAP help ref - Variable Substitution
If you set the Active indicator, you can enter variables for the Target Directory and File Name Schema. Enter the variable names and references in the table.
Can you tell me where can I find Active indicator. We are SP12. Thanks, Parimala
