File is being truncated by Sender File Adapter

Hello,
My input file is very wide. It has got 175 fields and is around 4000+ char wide. When file adapter loads it, the inbound payload does not contain all the fields (i.e. it is being truncated). Any idea that how can I load this too wide file!
Thanks,

Hey Dehra,
<i>Firstly, the number of records in your file is not a problem at all. Your limitation is the length of one record. See question 3 in note 545923. It says that your transfer structure cannot be more that 1962 bytes including the system fields.
Now to calculate how many fields will fit into 1962 bytes. For this, take the first field. If the infoobject is defined as CHAR 9 then it is 9 bytes, a key-figure is 10 bytes most of the time. So add up. Remember even if in your flat file there are 2 chars but it is mapped into a char 9 field, it still counts as char 9. I don't think number of columns is a factor.
You can split your file into multiple files of 1962 bytes size but keeping the unique key of the records common across all the files. So that you can merge then in an ODS maybe. Again remember that fields like request number, date packet number, partition ID and record number has to be there in every PSA and a part of the 1962 limit.</i>

How to pick files from multiple directories via Sender File Adapter?

Hi guys,
I have a scenario File to IDOC. The Sender File Adapter has to take all files: .xml from Source directory E://Current/.
Actually directories are like
E:/Plant1/Current/
E:/Plant1/History/
E:/Plant2/Current/
E:/Plant2/History/.
Can I have one Sender File Adapter to pick all *.xml files
from
E:/Plant1/Current/ and
E:/Plant2/Current/ and how can I write it in Source Directory of Communication Channel?
Or do I have to have a Sender File Adapter for each Plant?
Any suggestion please?
Kind regards,
Danijela Zivanovic

Picking file in sequence/Queuing   in sender SFTP adapter.

Hi Experts,
I am using SFTP adapter in sender side, it has no option of quality of service ( EOIO) and queue name as we have in FTP adapter configuration .Is there any predefined module provided by Sap which i use in the modules Tab in communication channel configuration to get the functionality of queuing ? just like we use strictXMlto plain bean etc.
I have 3 files which needs to proccess in a sequence one after another in order.I CANT USE BPM or Even FTP because of Security reasons.
please share you ideas.
Regards,
Anika

Hi all,
I have tried using AF_Modules/DynamicConfigurationBean in module tab present is the sender SFTP adapter with the attribute qualityOfService.
parameter name                  Parameter value
     key.0                         insert http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Messaging qualityOfService
    value.0                        ExactlyOnceInOrder
But in Moni i dont see the 3 messages didnt go in the same queue.But when i double click and open the dynamic configuration present in the soap header section i can see the values which i given in the module parameter.
Is there any way i can change the quality of service to EOIO at runtime ? how to change the default EO to EOIO.

How to process files one by one using sender file adapter

Hi,
I have to process file one by one using my file adapter (sender), because while doing the G/R materials get locked, if the same materal exist in other files.
I have maintained QOS as "Exactly Once in Order" & processing Sequence as "by date".
Processing sequence come in which tab? What will be the Queue name?
Thanks,
krishna

It will come under Processing tab
Here you need to select the first parameter QOS as EOIO
Then QUEUE name and processing sequence will be enabled.
NOTE: This will work only for NFS protocol not for FTP.

Issue while fetching the file through *.extension by FTP sender file adapte

Hello Experts,
I am facing a issue while fetching the data through sender File adapter with ' *.file extension' .I am illustarting the scenario as below .
It is a simple scenarion of File to File inboumd scenarion.Here file is getting picked up from a third party system
through FTP sender chanel and stored in a temp folder of PI through NFS rceiver file adapter .
The problem is however I am getting, while picking the file with file name as "*.exo"(where exo is the file extension).
But while fetching the file with particular name like"abcd_10032011*.exo"(file naming has been done by combination of abcd(always same)_currentdate(change according to current date)),file picked successfully .
So here ,in the prior case file not getting picked up,but in later case it dose .
Can anyone please let me know what might be the issue?

Hi Sunit,
Connect from your PI System to 3rd Party System (where are placed the Source Files)
FTP <PartySystemHostName>
eg. FTP 10.2.3.456 (then insert Username & Password to Login)
Go to source directory
cd \<SourceDirectory>
eg. cd \donaldduck\directory\
Execute a File List command
ls -la *.<extension>
eg. ls -la *.exo
In this way you should be able to view all files with this extension (*.exo), the same action that Sap XI perform to pickup the file.
Then, try to copy that file to your Local PI System (to check if there're some permissions issue):
mget <filename>.exo
eg. mpget File1_01012011.exo

I m running JSF framework icefaces implememntation

Hi:
After some days and several test I discover the solution.
I'm using Unicodes in the messages text (like \u00e9, \u00e1) and due to a typing mistake, in just a word the sequence \u00es appears instead of \u00e9.
It seems \u00es is not a valid Unicode code and that was the cause of this particular error.
I think this kind of message error must change depending which web server is used.
As i said, i'm using the embedded oc4j server.

How to read files with codepage UTF16LE with "Sender File Adapter"

Hi everybody,
I am using a XI-Filesender-Adapter to get a (UTF-16LE encoded) file und process it in XI-Mapping.
This is my File-Content:
Cost Centre,Cost Code,Page Count (B&W),Page Count (Colour),Job Count
Unknown,Lexmark,"37,480",334,"11,968"
Unknown,Unknown,312,0,177
110000,Lexmark,128,228,43
The HEX-representation of this content is:
FF FE 43 00 6F 00 73 00 74 00 20 00 43 00 65 00
(The starting 2 Bytes FF FE represent UTF16-LE )
And this is the payload I get for mapping:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ns:MT_POM_KOSTEN xmlns:ns="http://aua.com/pom">
<POM_REC>
<COSTCENTER>uFEFFCost Centre</COSTCENTER>
<COSTCODE>Cost Code</COSTCODE>
<PAGECOUNT_BW>Page Count (B&W)</PAGECOUNT_BW>
<PAGECOUNT_COL>Page Count (Colour)</PAGECOUNT_COL>
<JOBCOUNT>Job Count</JOBCOUNT>
</POM_REC>
<POM_REC>
<COSTCENTER>Unknown</COSTCENTER>
<COSTCODE>Lexmark</COSTCODE>
<PAGECOUNT_BW>37,480</PAGECOUNT_BW>
<PAGECOUNT_COL>334</PAGECOUNT_COL>
<JOBCOUNT>11,968</JOBCOUNT>
</POM_REC>
<POM_REC>
<COSTCENTER>Unknown</COSTCENTER>
<COSTCODE>Unknown</COSTCODE>
<PAGECOUNT_BW>312</PAGECOUNT_BW>
<PAGECOUNT_COL>0</PAGECOUNT_COL>
<JOBCOUNT>177</JOBCOUNT>
</POM_REC>
<POM_REC>
<COSTCENTER>110000</COSTCENTER>
<COSTCODE>Lexmark</COSTCODE>
<PAGECOUNT_BW>128</PAGECOUNT_BW>
<PAGECOUNT_COL>228</PAGECOUNT_COL>
<JOBCOUNT>43</JOBCOUNT>
<POM_REC>
I can see the correct strings (for example Cost Centre) in payload, but the string-comparison in the user defines function cannot recognize the equality of the strings:
for (int i =0; i < a.length; i++) {
if (
(a<i>.equals("Cost Centre")) )
result.addSuppress();
else
result.addValue("");
Actually I am using UTF-8 as codepage in Fileadapter (and Text as type)
When I try to use UTF16 (or UTF-16LE) as Codepage, I am getting unreadable characters.
I also tried binary, UTF16-BE,...
The only way is to covert the file to ANSI before I use it with XI. Then my function does work correctly.
Does anybody have an idea, how I can read a UTF16-LE File and process it correctly in XI?
I am using XI 7.00 0023 and JSDK 1.4.2-34
Thanks a lot
Armin

Hello Armin,
I have gone through some SAP notes and blogs to find solution to your problem, here is what I found
1. SAP NOTE 821267
q) How do I correctly configure the File Encoding used by the File
Adapter?
Flat Files with File Content Conversion
For a File Sender channel, configure the encoding of the source
file. The file will be interpreted according to the configured
encoding and converted to XML with an UTF-8 encoding.
For a File Receiver channel, configure the encoding to match
the encoding you would like to be written to the target flat
file.
- Flat Files without File Content Conversion
Whether to configure an encoding in this case depends on if you
want to pass through the file "as is", e.g. within a File
Sender to File Receiver scenario, or if you want to convert the
file's encoding on its way through the Integration Server. For
"as is" processing, configure both the sender and the receiver
using the File Type setting "Binary".
To apply an encoding conversion, configure the respective
source and target encoding in both the sender and receiver
channel.
Important: Configuring an encoding in the receiver channel
will only lead to the expected results if the payload sent to
the receiver channel is in UTF-8 format (e.g., by having
specified an encoding conversion in the Sender channel).
So as per this note if you configure the encoding scheme of sender communication channel to UTF-16LE, adapter should be able to convert it to UTF-8 by default. But you have posted that this encoding scheme is leading to unreadable charcters
2) SAP note 880173
This speaks of use of module XMLAnonymizerBean which can be applied to XML payload to change its encoding.
3) How to guide on encoding : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/502991a2-45d9-2910-d99f-8aba5d79fb42?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
4) SAP note:960663
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/45/da2deb47812e98e10000000a155369/content.htm
TextCodePageConversion Bean details which might solve your problem.
5) Finally if nothing above works you need a java mapping code to convert to target XML structure without any File content conversion. The mapping will convert the received file to proper target XML in "UTF-8" encoding. Please let us know if you need help on the code with this final option.

Anupam

Archiving file in different folder in sender file adapter

Hi,
I have a requirement in witch i have to pick 7 different file from seven different folder.
for this I am using advance selection tab and defining all the other folder path.
but my problem is I have to archive the different file in different folder .
For exm..
/folder1/file1.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder1/file1.txt
/folder2/file2.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder2/file2.txt
/folder3/file3.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder3/file3.txt
can any one tell me that how to define the dynamic archive folder path??.
regards,
Navneet

Hi Navneet
In File Access parameters --> Target Directory
Use this type of Directory name
\XIDEV_STORES\%store%\sapoutbound
here %store% will be changed accordingly
e.g. if file will come for store 001 then this %Store% will be replaced by 001 and file will be placed in this 001 folder and if file will come for store 002 then this %Store% will be replaced by 002 and file will be placed in this 002 folder over FTP.
For to achieve this Go to Advanced tab
For Variable Substitution check mark Enable
Now speciofy the parameter values for Variable Name and Reference
Under Vriable name specify = store
Under Reference specify = payload:WP_PLU02,1,IDOC,1,EDI_DC40,1,RCVPRN,1 -
You have to give full path name here that where this store variable is located into IDOC.
Hope this example will help you

SOLVED: Some files not being picked up with File: protocol

Hello all,
I'm doing some testing of the B2B server on a laptop and seeing some weird behaviour. I have the B2B server set up much like the 850 inbound scenario for the tutorial, except that I am using AS2 over generic exchange with a FILE: transport server. I have "Shoppers" set up as the remote trading partner.
Now for the weirdness. If I put a file in the incoming directory called "ACME_850_4010_1_12345.edi" (it's the one I used for the tutorial, it is picked up fine by the B2B server; it errors out (as expected) because I don't have a trading partner called "ACME" in my setup. However, if I drop a file in the incoming directory called "Shoppers_850_4010_1_12345.edi" with the same exact content as the ACME file - the B2B server never picks up the file to process it. The other weird thing - after putting the Shoppers file in the directory, the B2B server just stops picking up files from that directory altogether until I restart the B2B server.
Any ideas?
DOH - files were not exactly the same. Missing carriage return at the end of the file. Adding it seems to have solved the issue.
Best regards,
John

Hello John,
Trading Partner identification by default is based on the Exchange protocol and in your case of Generic Exchange , it is based on name of the file or the Directory name depending on the following property.
Property:           oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.allTPInOneDirectory
Type:           boolean
Default Value:      false
Description:
If set to true, enables the identification of all files dropped into a particular directory with the trading partner name identified by the directory name: Example: E:\Partners\Acme
The default is to identity each file by prefixing the file with the Trading Partner name Example: Acme_orders.xml
To debug this issue, please enable transport trace and go through the log.

Psd files are being saved as .14 file format and I cannot open them

I have been creating a few large (100MB+) files in Adobe Photoshop CS4. I saved the files both as .psd and .jpg. When I restarted my computer the next day, I went to open the file and instead of seeing the normal Photoshop icon on the file it was just a blank page icon. After attempting to open it in CS4 it flashes an alert saying, "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document. Then when I hover my cursor over the icon the File Type says "14 File"
I then clicked the help button in CS4 to solve the problem only to be greeted with another error message of, "There was an error loading the Adobe Help Application, you may need to re-install the application and the help component" which would be all well and good if I were at home and had the original handy. Unfortunately I am out of town and unable to do so. I do not wish to buy another version of Photoshop but I need to work on these files. Please Help

I'm not sure what happened. I would suspect something with your system, hopefully not malware.
Run a Anti virus scan. Also do some disk maintenance, check disk, cleanup, and defrag.
You can rename the files with the correct extensions and see if they open.
Let's see. You don't have access to your discs, but you can download the installer:
Download CS4 products
Have your serial number ready and if CS4 was an upgrade, the qualifying serial number.
You can these under the account you registered them under with Adobe.
Usually here: https://www.adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html
If you uninstall the old CS4, use the Cleaner tool to remove any remnants.
Also checkmark "Remove Preferences" when uninstalling.
Do this all using your admin account.
