File adapter @ receiver end using fieldFixedLengths

Hi ,
I am using file adapter @ receiver end using content conversion.
Using field separator as 'nl'.
When i open file in Hex mode it's showing the field separator as 2 Cariage returns(CR) & 1 line feed(LF).
But the requirement is only 1 CR n 1 LF . I tried giving like this,
Datarow.fieldFixedLengths : 15,15,15,15,10,10,10,10
Datarow.endSeparator : '0x0A' or '0x0D'
but da result is same...2 CR n 1 LF..
even if i dont give endseparator then also same thing is happening..
regards,
Kishore

Hi Kishore,
Try using fieldseparator directly, instead of working around with fixedFieldlength.
cheers,

Receiver File adapter content conversion using StrictXml2PlainBean

Hi All,
For receiver file adapter i am using the module StrictXml2PlainBean, and also i mentioned the module configuration like this
parameter name                              parameter value
recordTypes                                  Header,TransactionHeader,TransactionDetail,TransactionTrailer,FileTrailer

TransactionDetail.endSeparator   |\n
TransactionDetail.fieldSeparator |
TransactionHeader.endSeparator |\n
TransactionHeader.fieldSeparator |
TransactionTrailer.endSeparator |\n
TransactionTrailer.fieldSeparator |
But when i send the idoc, The receiver CC is throwing an error
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.modules.conversion.xml2plain.ConversionException: Invalid structure name encountered during conversion: Transaction at XML element MT_DeliveryOrder,Transaction
My actual structure is

   Header 0...1
   Transaction 0....Unbounded
      TransactionHeader 1..1
       TransactionDetail     0...unbounded
        TransactionTrailer 1...1
   FileTrailer 0...1
The module is checking for the Transaction node,but i require the rest 3.
Same configuration i have done successfully with FCC without using the module....
So can any one suggest me where i am missing... why the module is pointint towards, the Transaction cant i ignore this node . and continue with the rest???

Hi Rajesh,
The same FCC configuration was working fine with FCC and when i am using this module configuration i am getting the prob...
In the file i need the Header,TransactionHeader,TransactionDetail,TransactionTail,Filetrailer
my sample output file is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_DeliveryOrder>
<Header>
</Header>0...1
<Transaction>0...Unbounded
    <TransactionHeader> 1..1

<FileTrailer> 0...1
</FileTrailer>
Any suggestions will be great help...
I think i need to go with other options without using this module....

How to use File Adapter Receiver to write attachments

Hi,
i have a scenario, in which our own XInotes adapter sends an XIMessage from an IBM Lotus Notes database into XI. This XIMessage contains an XML document as application main document and several PDF files as additional attachments
On the receiver side, i must use a File Adapter to write both the XML documents and the PDF attachments into a directory.
The problem is i don't know how to use the file adapter receiver to write the attachments. In the Channel Monitoring, i can see that all PDF files are transferred to the file receiver. But the file adapter writes only the XML document into the directory.
I've also tried the AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean, but it can only swap one PDF file into the application payload. And the file name must be hard coded in the module configuration as swap.KeyName.
Could anyone give me any ideas?
thanks a lot in advance
Xiang

hi,
receiver file adapters do not supprt attachments.
Only File Sender adapter is capable of handling attachments not the receiver.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4b/a20c4cfea96b498b1e1af3f32f0670/frameset.htm
Configuring the sender FILE adapter
The sender file adapter is configured to pick the normal payload (file1.xml), which is specified in the File
access parameters, and the additional image file (file1.jpg) that is to be sent as an attachment is configured
under the Additional File(s) as shown in the screenshot below. The file type would still remain binary.
Since, by default, XI sends payload and attachments in XML format, we need to call two beans, namely the
MessageTransformBean and the PayloadSwapBean to help us is transforming the content to jpeg format
and also change the file extension.
The PayloadSwapBean module is used to replace the application payload of the XI message that holds the
data with another payload which is appended to the message as an attachment. In our case, the payload
would be file1.xml whereas the attachment would be file1.jpg
The swap module is denoted in our scenario with the module key swap. It has two parameters from the
MIME header.

Unable to clone File Adapter receiver channel for parallel processing

Hi Experts,
I am using variable substitution for File - RFC - File with out BPM scenario(using request response, oneway bean).
While i placed the file in the sender FTP folder, the file didnt get picked up, but in communication channel monitoring, i am getting error ' Unable to clone File Adapter receiver channel for parallel processing'.
Can anybody provide me suggestions to solve this error.
Note : without variable substitution , the interface is working good.
Is it due to, i am trying the source structure field in response file adapter?

Hi,
In your CC, do you use some additional paramaters ?
like these one of point 47/48 of [Oss note 821267 - FAQ: XI 3.0 / PI 7.0/ PI 7.1 File Adapter|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/821267]
Maybe there is conflict with a parallel connexion and the bean used to do asynch-synch bridge...

it should be:
Channel ch = (Channel) LookupManager.getInstance().getCPAObject(CPAObjectType.CHANNEL, moduleContext.getChannelID());

Did I miss anything.. any idea whats going wrong?
Thanks
Deepthi

Hi Deepthi,
Mention the occurrence of header in Recordset
You specify like this:
Recordset: Header, *
Header.fieldSeparator : u2018Field Separatoru2019
-->For FCC on Receiver side you donu2019t have to mention the field names.
-->The u2018endSeparatoru2019 parameter needs to given for substructure only

File Adapter Receiver

Hi All,
File to File (CSV)
At the receiver side i am not getting the file it is showing problem in runtime workbench: File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.
Thanks,
Satish.

<i>File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.</i>
>>>
1. check if your adapter is active
2. in case you have FCC just remove the same for the time being and check if it can pass the XML version (without FCC). this will confirm if it was a problem with your FCC parameters.
Let us know the proceedings !!!!!

File Adapter Receiver Asynchronous

Hi ,
I've read a couple of times now that a file adapter which is operated as a receiver is always asynchronous. This means he cannot be used in conjunction with a synchronous RFC.
Is that right ?
I haven't found anything about the asynchronous behavior of the file adapter in any official documentation.
Can please someone provide me with a link ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Frank

Hello,
You can use it synchronously by choosing "Best effort" in quality management of your sender file adapter.
Or if you want you can define synchronous RFC in a BPM step, independently of your sender interface.

Chris

Sender file adapter - Can I use *.xml for the file name

Hi Gurus,
I have some interfaces where I need to pick the file from a directory. The name of the file will have Data<i>time stamp</i> as the naming convention. Can I use *.xml to pick up my files from this directory?
The help.sap.com documentation says that we can use this naming convention.
<b>
● File Name
Specify the name of the file that you want to process. The name can contain placeholders (*, ? (placeholders for exactly one character)) so that you can select a list of files for processing.
</b>
I tried using *.xml for my file name in the communication channel, XI is not picking up this file.
Please let me know if you have the solution.
Thanks
Kalyan

Murthy,
Thanks for the reply.
I am using GuildFTP tool as my FTP server. In this tool, all the permissions were given for the file to pick up.
The status of the file is good.
Where in the file adapter configuration I have to select 'Read-only'?
The file adapter is working perfect with the exact name of the file.
Thanks
Kalyan
