File adapter polling stops after reboot of third party system
Hi,
We noticed that whenever we reboot our third party system, XI File Adapter is losing it's connection to that third party system and polling stops. As a result File Adapter is not processing any files from that particular server.
To fix this problem, we either reboot XI Server or refresh communication channel (Go to change mode and save it).
File adapter is configured to use FTP to transfer the files between Windows Server and Unix Server.
Is there a better way to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Chandu
Hi,
Make the connect mode as PER FILE TRANSFER in the file adapter.
<i>Connect Mode
Permanently
An existing connection to the FTP server is used permanently.
The connection is reestablished automatically if it is closed by the server.
Per File Transfer
A new connection to the FTP server is established for each file transfer.</i>

Secure the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system
Hi All,,
I would like to use to "secure" SSH on OS Level the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system Run OS Command before processing and OS command After processing. right now my XI server installed on iSeries OS.
with ISeries we can't call the Unix commands hope we need to go for AS400 (CL) Programming. If we created the AS400 programm how i can call that in XI.
If any one have idea pls let me know weather it will work or not.
Thanks in adavance.
VenkatHi,
Thanks for your reply.
I have red some blogs like /people/krishna.moorthyp/blog/2007/07/31/sftp-vs-ftps-in-sap-pi to call the Unix Shell script in XI.
But as i know in iSeries OS we can write the shell script we need to go for AS400 programe. If we go with AS400 how we need to call that programe and it will work or not i am not sure there i need some help please.
Thanks,

File Adapter polls all the files from the directory when deployed again
Hi,
File Adapter polls all the files from the inbound directory irrespective of the timestamp when deployed again.
For ex. when the BPEL process with file adapter is deployed, it starts polling the directory based on the timestamp as and when the directory is written with the files. I did not opt for deleting the files after read by the File Adapter.
But, when BPEL process is modified and deployed again, this time, the file adapter picks up all the files in the inbound directory and doesn't consider the timestamp.
My guess is that it should not pick all the files but based on timestamp only.
I guess I can observe the same behavior if I bounce the Application Server also
Do I have an option to achieve this?
Thanks,
Sasi Bhushan.try this:
1- create a File object for the directory. (look at isDirectory() )
2- create a File[] that represents the files in that directory. (.listFiles())
3- if (file[x].isDirectory()) {recursive method call;}
4- else {
process file;
If you want more help--do some work on it, and come back with specific questions relating to specific lines in your code and specific error messages you've been receiving. -
File Adapter and Third party system
Hi,
I am new to XI and implementing a simple scenario.
In SLD- I have 3rd paty software component and product.
3rd party technical system: using my pc - For host name I am using my machine name.
Scenario: Using file adapter transform csv file to xml.
File resides on my machine. I have configured file adapter inbound and outbound. Integration Dir & Rep objects are all activated.
But nothing happens, cannot see any message in Messgae monitoring..
Any help would be great.. Is my technical system setup wrong?
thankschk whether the folder in your m/c where the CSV file resides is shared and has appropriate access. Also you need to specify your m/c IP with fwd slashes, e.g) //<Ipaddress>/foldername
configuring your m/c as a Third Party system in SLD is fine.
If you think ur SLD settings are not correct, you can define your file adapter commn. channel in a Business Service(which does not require an SLD entry) and check whether it works.
Thanks

XI and Third party systems are on diff OS which affects File adapter
Hello,
I hav ea sceanrio where XI is on Unix and third party system is on Windows.
We are using a file adapter to give data to third party.on third party system os level script reads this file.
When ever XI is file adapter is writing file that time only sometimes script tries to read the file and I guess here unix file lock mechanism is not understandable by script which read these files in third party.
At the same time third party is writing data and file adapter of XI reads that file, here also file lock mechanism is not recognised.
This is causing bad data read in XI and as well third party level.
Pl can you suggest how to resolve this.
thanks,
SharadaHI Sharada
You need to use FTP. XI server's file adapter can access only files placed on its local directory.
In your case install a FTP server on your desktop and make file adapter connnnect to it .

IDoc-to-File with ext. Partner ... How to define the third-party system
Hi all,
I want to make an IDoc-to-File scenario with an external partner. the xml-file generated by the integration server should be forwarded with the file/ftp-Adapter to a ftp-server in New York (our XI-System is in Germany).
Is it right that I have to create a technical system and a business system for the ftp-server in New York? I want to create it as a third-party system. But how? Is it enough to give only a name for the third-party technical system?
What I have to put in "Host name" or can I leave this gap empty? And have I to choose Products or is it not nessesary?
Thanks for your answers
best regards

Yes it is the correct way to do this.

> gap empty?
Dont remember exactly. But I think HostName is mandatory. You can give any value that you want here. Does not matter at all.
Ideal way is to give the HostName of the FTP server here. if unknown give any value.
And have I to choose Products or is it not
> nessesary?
>
Not necessary. But ideal would be to assign the products which you have created in the SLD for your XI content so that the SWCV is also associated with this Tech System

Adobe After Effects CS4 Third Party Content only installed on one of two computers
Hello,
I installed Adobe Creative Suite CS4 MC on two systems. One system lists "Adobe After Effects CS4 Third Party Content" in Add/Remove Programs. This left me a bit baffled as to what this content is and why it only installed on one machine (i.e., assuming I did not erroneously selected or deselected it during the default install). I thought it would be reasonable to install the missing content on the second machine but I cannot find an installer listing "Adobe After Effects CS4 Third Party Content" in the CS4 default or custom installer.
Could someone please tell me what this content is used for and how I can install it on the second machine?
Thank you...> It should by no means be shown separately in the install database
That's not true for one case.
If you install After Effects in trial mode, the third party content won't be installed. But it leaves the third party content installer on your machine so that when you add a serial number the plug-ins can be added. This causes a new installer to run, so it will be registered (and need to be uninstalled) separately from the main installer.
Frederick- Verify that both machines have the third party plug-ins that Mylenium listed. If it's not on the second machine you probably have it in trial mode and need to serialize. (If not, try uninstalling and reinstalling After Effects from the Master Collection package.) -
IDoc Scenario SAP ERP - PI(Receiver IDoc Adapter) - IDoc to Third-Party system
Dear All,
I have created a scenario to send IDocs via PI system (PI 7.1) to a third party system.
There is no message mapping involved(Only ID part)
I have imported Idoc Metadata from the source ERP system.
Created an RFC destination(BC_ERP_SEA) in the PI system of type TCP/IP with registered Server Program to third party system.(Tested success)
Created a port in IDX1 BC_ERP_SEA with above TCP/IP destination.
Receiver communication channel of type IDoc is created with the following parameters:
RFC Destination: BC_ERP_SEA
Segment Version: 640
Interface Version: SAP release 4.0 or Higher
Port: BC_ERP_SEA
SAP Release: 640
Now when I execute the scenario, I get the following error in SM58 of PI system.
Bena IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS not found on host.
Request your help for this issue.
Thanks,
JishiHi,
Check below steps..it may resolve your issue
1. It is mandatory to specify Ack Destination value in IDoc_AAE sender channel. The value should be an RFC destination name which is connecting to your SAP ECC system.
2. In inboundRA resource adapter, the value for the property "local" should be set to "true".

How to configure https to send wsdl file to third party systems
Hi Experts,
instead of using http, i need to use https. so for this in xi system what steps do i need to follow to send wsdl file to any third party systems. here iam using pi 7.1 as a xi system.
please help me in this.
thanks
jas>> to send wsdl file to any third party
In no communication you send wsdl to third party. You always send related http message.
For HTTPS, in the receiver channel, use HTTP Destination.
Goto sm59 in PI and create RFC destination type G. There under "Logon & Security", set SSL as Active.
For this to work, certificates should be imported on ABAP stack using STRUST.

Commitment Interface from SAP to the third party system!
When we created Purchase Requisition or Purchase Order, the commitment will be created. The third party system needs to track the commitment. So SAP needs to send the commitment to the third party system by this interface.
But when the Goods have been delivered, the commitment will be zero out and the actual will be posted to SAP. SAP needs to send the offsetting records to the third party system. In this way, the third party systems knows that how much commitments have been reduced.
My problem is that I cannot find the right table to record the offsetting entry. In the table COSP, I can identify the commitment by the Business Transaction -- RMBA and RMBE. But it did not record the offsetting entry. It just becomes zero when the goods have been delivered. But I have nothing from that table to send to the third party system.
Does anyone meet this problem before? Can you share some experience on this?
ThanksHello All,
The issue is resolved now. In the EAI seebeyond at the time of writing the file to be sent after reading the IDOC the format is changed. Initially the file is written in the ASCII format now we have changed the formatting to ISO to resolve the same.
Thanks,

Accessing BW Query from Third Party System
Hi,
We have a requirement by which user can do the following through the third party system.
1. User will enter the Parameters in the third party system.
2. User will then call the BW Query with the above parameters from the third party system.
3. BW query should get execute based on the parameters (variables) and output to be displayed.
3. After displaying the output, the same should get passed into the db tables or the flat file to the third party system.
Ideal steps will be :
1. Enter the parameters in the third party system
2. Calling the query from third party system with the
parameters
3. Executing the BW query
4 Displaying the output and
5. Sending the output back to the third party system
Kindly advise how can we handle this scenario.
Regards
Ramesh Ganjihi,
you can use third party etl tools. I used XtractIS for microsoft analysis services.

Hi
i have a scenario like transfer data from SAP Ztable to the third party system with platform /os/db as mainframe/DB2 .. which adapter i have to use ( file or any other ) and which protocol i have to use..
generally what kind of questions i have to ask network enginner for using the FTP protocol..
venkatHi ,
As pointed ...above you can for a file to file scenario you can create just the Business service in integration Directory and create two file communication channels for sender and reciever under it.
However if it was file to idoc or file to rfc ..
then you need create ts web as abap ..identifying your R/3 system
System Name: <you can give a 3 character id here of r/3 system ...i.e like IDS>
System Home : <can be found in status of R/3 system>
Installtion Number : In transaction Slicense in R/3
Host Name : Same as System home can be specified.
Message Server: <3600+instance Number can be found in the log pad to the r/3 system itself >
associate a bussiness system with this ...create a product and a software component version ...In swcv in respository ..develop your object under it ...
Import this business system in Configuration ..and create your communication chanel under it.

Hi All;
Is it possible to monitor following using solution manager.
1. Third party system (non-SAP i.e. non-ABAP n non-JAVA system)
2. Application Running on third party system.
3. files/logs generated and database update by an application on third party system.
If yes then please let me know how we can achieve this.
Thanks in advance.
