File Logical Path Issue
Hello Experts,
I'm trying to use the following FM to check the Application Server Path but always get error 'No Path Found'. Can you please somebody have a quick look at the following code tell me my mistake.
Data: File_path(100),
File(100),
FileName(50),
FileNameWithPath(255) TYPE C.
File_path = '/usr/sap/EC1/DVEBMGS00/work'.
FileName = 'ZZAD_DS_MATERIAL_UPLOAD'.

PARAMETER_2 = ' '
PARAMETER_3 = ' '
USE_BUFFER = ' '
FILE_NAME = FileName
USE_PRESENTATION_SERVER = ' '
ELEMINATE_BLANKS = 'X'
IMPORTING
FILE_NAME_WITH_PATH = FileNameWithPath
EXCEPTIONS
PATH_NOT_FOUND = 1
MISSING_PARAMETER = 2
OPERATING_SYSTEM_NOT_FOUND = 3
FILE_SYSTEM_NOT_FOUND = 4
OTHERS = 5
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
message e000 with SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
exit.
ENDIF.
open dataset FileNameWithPath for appending in text mode encoding default.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Well your logical file looks more like a physical one. In any event, the documentation for th eFM saus that "The file name must be in upper case letters, since the logical file names are stored in upper case in the Customizing tables for the platform-independent file names."
Maybe you should be filling in the parameter FILE_NAME_WITH_PATH instead.

Transaction code to see the archive file logical path
Hello,
Some data is archived.
In which transaction we can get the archive file logical path.
( Just like transaction al11 for sap directories )
Thanks..
VijayHi Vijay,
Check transaction FILE or use FM FILE_GET_NAME_USING_PATH or FILE_GET_NAME_AND_LOGICAL_PATH
to retrieve the path.
Also check program RSFILENA and table PATH.
Thanks

Cl_gui_frontend_services= gui_download and logical path issue
Hi all!!
I'm downloading a table with this class/method, and when i have worked with a LOCAL folder, it worked fine, but now, i need to put the file into a server folder. So i get the logical path in this way:
10.20.xx.xx
but when i pass the filename to the method: v_filename = '
10.20.xx.xx\file.txt' the file is not generated into this folder.. and i have permission to access and modify this folder..
Thanks for your feedbak!If you need transfer each record of the table (I suppose itab with header line):
LOOP AT itab.
TRANSFER itab TO file_path
ENDLOOP.
Note: All of fields in itab must be character-type if the file was opened as a text file.
Other example:
OPEN DATASET '/usr/sap/tmp/ztest.txt' FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
TRANSFER zdepmentt TO '/usr/sap/tmp/ztest.txt'.
ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET '/usr/sap/tmp/ztest.txt'.
Here the content of the data object (flat structure) "zdepmentt" is transferred to the application server file '/usr/sap/tmp/ztest.txt'.
Note: The file ztest.txt is automaticaly created. -
BPEL File Adapter Logical Path Issue
I am trying to write the BPEL Error Messages using a file adapter. But I could not parameterize the logical directory. I need a solution of changing it in the BPEL console after deploying it
I am Invoking a FileAdapter Web service using logical direcotry, in the FileService partnerlink I set the file_loc property with type"LogicalDirectory" and set the value to " D:/BPEL_Errors" etc. This is working fine but except in the BPEL Console I could not edit it, All the Partner Link properties seems to be read only and not editable. I tried creating a user property for the BPEL process which can be editable but How do I refer this user property in partner link since I cannot use XPATH expression there?.
I guess this should be a very generic problem all I am looking for is parameterizing the File Location. Any Ideas?
Thanks,
ChitraThanks James. It would be really nice if the first option works, do you have any idea why its not editable. I am having the following in bpel.xml
<partnerLinkBinding name="FileService">
<property name="wsdlLocation">FileService.wsdl</property>
<property name="BPEL_LOG">D:\JDeveloper\jdev\mywork\BPEL_LOG</property>
When I deploy the above, In the console I see BPEL_LOG as non editable field. Is am doing anything wrong?.
Regarding the second option , I guess you are talking about modifying the Outbound message header by adding a new property called directory, as mentioned in the following link.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28994/adptr_file.htm#CACFFAHI
Since there are many bpel processes which use the fileservice, I need to edit the fileAdapterOutboundHeader.wsdl in multiple places. Please let me know whether I can make the first option to work -
LSMW - Logical Path/File - No logical path has been specified
Hello,
I am trying to create a LSMW with the RM06EEI0 direct input program for ME21N transaction.
At the SpecifyFiles step I get the error message "No logical path has been specified".
My dilemmas are:
1. How can I solve this error? Is the FILE transaction only solution? If yes, where and how I must define the logical path/file?
2. Why in the case of the Batch Input Recording LSMW Method this files are created automatically? (I can see them in the AL11 transaction and I didn't define them by myself).
3. Why on other system this error is just an warning message? If you look at this tutorial http://****************/Tutorials/LSMW/PO/Page4.htm at Step7.g. you can see that there is no need of defining the file/path in FILE transaction.
More info about the system I am working in:
SAP ECC 6.0.
LSMW 4.0.0. Version.
Thank you.
DanielaHi
Refer the oss note 753511 released for this kind of error you face in LSMW, I am pasting the content of the note below,
******************Note Content,
Symptom
The system issues an error message for the logical path or file when you perform the "Specify files" step in the Legacy System Migration Workbench (transaction LSMW) although you have made the correct assignment in transaction FILE.
The error messages are as follows:
The logical path <PATH> does not point to the physical directory.
The logical file <FILE> is not assigned to the physical file.
or
A logical path was not specified.
Other terms
Logical path, logical file, transaction FILE, LSM Workbench
Reason and Prerequisites
Some import interfaces that you can also use with transaction LSMW work with logical path and file names.
Transaction LSMW itself, however, works with physical file names. To be able to transfer the LSMW file with the converted data to the import program, you must specify a logical file name for the file with the converted data in addition to the physical file name. In this case, the system displays additional fields in the 'Specify files' step in which you must enter the logical path and file name.
Solution
The error messages may be due to several causes. Check the following:
Have you maintained the logical path and logical file name and have you assigned them to the physical file specified in the "File" input field of transaction LSMW?
These settings are maintained in transaction FILE.
When you use logical file and path names, you must specify the name of the physical file with its path. If you have not specified any directory, you cannot assign any directory to the logical path in transaction FILE. In this case, the system uses the SAP Home directory on the application server by default. Bear in mind that the file name must not exceed the maximum length of 45 characters, including the path.
Up to LSMW version 1.7.2 (*):
If the logical file name specified does not point to the physical file (although it should do), the system adjusts the logical file name, that is, the information in transaction FILE is changed to the entries made in transaction LSMW. This may lead to unwanted side effects if the logical file is also used somewhere else. Therefore, SAP recommend that you always use separate logical paths and file names for transaction LSMW (the problem is corrected as of LSMW version 1.8.0, see below). If the logical file does not exist yet, it will be created upon request.
As of LSMW version 1.8.0 (*):
The settings of the logical file are checked but no longer adjusted automatically as in version 1.7.2 (see above). If there are inconsistencies, the system issues an error message. If the user is authorized to maintain logical paths and file names (as for transaction FILE: "Maintenance authorization for cross-client tables"), transaction LSMW can create the logical path, the file name and the file. Due to this automatic generation, the user no longer needs to make adjustments in transaction FILE. Therefore, we especially recommend this procedure.
To display the version of transaction LSMW, select "Extras" --> "Display LSMW version" in the main menu of the initial screen.
You should also bear in mind that as of Basis Release 6.20, that is, as of LSMW version 4.0, transaction LSMW is no longer an add-on but is delivered with the standard system.
Hope this helps,

I tried to maintain the parameters and entries in transaction FILE also.

LSMW -Specify files -No logical path specified
HI,
While i specify a file in lsmw in specify files from pc front end in legacy data and i try to save. It says " no logical path specified " in the message bar.
kindly help me in this issue.
i am unable to go further as I cant specify files.
Thank in advanceHi Srivasta
You just put any, not used logical file name in your file definition step. LSMW will create this logical file byself und will use when is needed, but you just forget about it in future. Don't forget to recreate this file, when you move your LSMW to test and production systems, it is not created automaticaly there.
The way you enter logical path and logical name is,
Within the LSMW option 'Specify Files', Double click on
'Converted Data' and a popup box will allow you enter
file name , logical path and logical file.
cheers

LSMW: Error concerning the logical path in Specify Files step
Hi,
I am trying on an ECC 6.0 EHP6 system to upload (open) POs from an existing SAP ERP system. Since I faced some complications in batch input recording method, I decided to go with the standard batch/direct input method.
I selected object 0085 (Purchase Order) and method 0001 (Purchase Order). The program that is used is RM06EEI0. I followed all the usual steps, but in the "Specify Files" step I get the message:
'****.lsmw.conv' does not exist; edit the logical path using transaction FILE
Being aware of both the FILE and SF01 transactions, I created the logical path and file (through the FILE transaction). However, after the modification, I get the message:
Logical file '****' is not assigned to physical file '****.lsmw.conv'
There is also the related SAP Note 753511 (Logical and physical path and file name in transaction LSMW) that refers to this case.Hi,
Click on specify file radio button>Legacy data-on the PC Front end
where input file location like C:\mydocument\desktop\test.txt
and give input in Name field: mydocument
in delimiter section > select Tabular
File structure section> tick on Field order matches source structure definition
File type: Record end marker(Text file)
then press enter key and other steps as same.
Second thing you said that you have used Batch input recording
after creation and recording finish , scroll the page below on recording and put a cursor unwanted field and remove unwanted input field.
I hope your problem will resolve. you can find the steps pdf on Google search try now.
Thanks

Logical path for getting a Flat file from application server
Hi All,
We have loaded some .csv files to application server, what is the logical path we have to mention in the infopackage scheduler screen? please guide me how to give the path for getting a flat file from application server.
Thanks,
Sairam.Hi Sairam,
I hope you know which location you have saved in the Application server.
Now if you go to the Infopackage and click on the "External Data" tab, there you will see Radio Buttons for
1) Client Workstation
2) Application Server
Choose the second radio button, then in the Field "Name of the File" you will be able to use the F4 help and browse AL11 transaction through this option. You can then choose the File.
Hope this helps

Logical File creation in Logical path
Hi all,
I am after an info, how to create different logical file name in the same physical path.
Suppose I have physical path: X/claims/interface/outbound which is assigned to logical path LP
Now under this path I want to store some logical file say 1, 2, and 3
What would be the naming convention? & how to do it?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Kironmoy Banerjee.Hi,
Use FM u2018FILE_GET_NAMEu2019 to assign the physical file name using a logical file name.
Remember you need to create u2018logical file nameu2019 using transaction u2013 FILE.
R/3 applications run on various platforms with various file systems. Hence we use platform-independent logical file names in our application programs.
Function module u2018FILE_GET_NAMEu2019 converts a logical file name to the corresponding physical file name and path for the hardware platform concerned.
For this conversion to work for different platforms, the definition of a logical file name must include a logical file path, which in turn is converted to different physical file paths, depending on the particular platform. The platform-specific file name returned by the function module is composed of the physical file path for the current platform and the physical file name associated with the logical file name. Placeholders in physical file and path names are substituted at runtime by the corresponding current values.
Example
logical file name: MONTHLY_SALES_FILE
physical file name: VALUES<PARAM_1>
logical path: SALES_DATA_PATH
physical path (UNIX): /usr/<SYSID>/<FILENAME>
physical path (Windows): C:\SALES\<FILENAME>.

LSMW by BI : Unable to specify file in step 7; logical Path not assigned
Hi,
I'm trying to uplaod HR DATA using object 0555 and method 0000 for Program RPDUSTD00 using LSMW Batch Input Method.
In step 7 when i specify file which tab delimited text file at front end pc(at my pc) let say c:\test.txt and save I got error message 'Logical path not assigned'.
Please suggest what I'm missing and what i need to do to get it correct.
Thanks,
Anshuman.Hi,
There are other files specified in the screen for imported and converted data. These files must be accessible on SAP application server. If the logical file names are not created use physical ones lik /tmp/blabla.lsmw.read etc.
Make sure you use different files for different objects.
Kind regards

LSMW accept file from logical path?
Dear All,
Can LSMW designs for conversions accept file from logical path?
The requirement is during actual conversion execution -the conversion team can store files anywhere they want, configure logical file names/paths and use our LSMWs without needing program modifications.
Kindly let me know.
Thanks in Advance
