File to Printer Scenario.

Hi,
I have to make file to Printer scenario.
I have closed my previous thread.
XI will pick file from File Sender System and put file at
File Receiver System. From there file will go to printer.
There is one condition:
If printer get jammed then from receiver system folder
file will not be sent to printer.
I want to have way that XI should not send next file till receving folder is empty (means printer is up)
How to make this scenario.
Regards

Hi Richi,
U have achieve this using an adapter module at the Receiver side since i have implemented this.U can use FTP Clients to send the files to the printer.In case if the printer gets jammed the files will be placed in queue and the they will get printed once the printer is up working again.
For using FTP Clients please refer to the following package:
org.apache.commons.net.ftp
or else you can also use
javax.print.* package
Please let me know if u need any information
Thanks,
Bhargav

File to Printer .

Good Morning ,
I have scenario that is quite similar to Rich H forum.
But that forum is not completed.:(
Mine is File to Printer scenario for bank and I have somewhat same condition.
There is a file sender system -
file receiver system - (have Printers attached).
File goes from file sender system to file receiver system
Printers take file from file directory of file receiver system.
My bank client told me same condition that if Printer stop working then do not put next file in receiver system folder
as next file will overwrite the file which is already present in that folder.
Suggestion please.
Regards

Good Morning Swarup/Raj,
As the thread by Rich H was talking about different soultions
there are two ways
-- one by Mr. Ranjeet Singh (got this)
-- one by you and Mr. Raj
Both solutions are fine. If I take your solution as described by you and Raj in Rick H forum
suppose IS_RETRY_LIMIT - 1
SXMB_ADM ---> Integration Engine Configuration --> Specific Configuration -->set parameter of IS_RETRY_LIMIT with current value as 1 --ok.
it means XI try to resend the file only once. so will it affect only *this scenario or all scenario*?
*First trigger* , File picked by XI and sent to Receiving folder , Printer picked the file - *XI Job is done. -- ok*
*Second trigger*, File picked by XI and sent to Receving folder, Printer is jammed - *XI Job is done. -- ok*
*Third trigger*, File picked by XI , it couldn't able to deliver to the Receiving folder ,coz file ABC.txt (constant file name) is already there. *XI Job is not done- in process -- ok.*
XI will retry to send *Second trigger file* again after some interval it couldn't able to deliver,file is there. - *XI Job is not done- in process -- ok*
For *Second trigger file* XI set message to *FAILED* status.
XI will retry to send *Third trigger file* again after some interval it couldn't able to deliver,file is there. - *XI Job is not done- in process -- ok*
For *Third trigger file* XI set the message to *FAILED* status
*Now Printer Problem Solved*
XI gets new file and send file -- ok
Now for FAILED messages in the second and third trigger

Message error: "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File Save."

I have 2 problems creating a .ps file.
As i know, there are 2 ways of creating a Postcript file from a PDF.
The first is from the Print monitor. I go through menu File/Page Setup i give the exact dimensions from my spreaded pages and after that i go to Print and when this window opens,
i go down and left and i open the pop-up menu on"PDF" and i choose "Save PDF as Postscript"
There is where i get the above error message :
"Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."
And the second scenario, i get an equal problem.
If i go to Page setup and give the right dimensions of my spreaded document, after that i go to the File/Save as command, there is choose from the bottom pop-up menu, the option at Format: Postscript
If i do that i get the following message:
"The document could not be saved. An internal error occured."
What is wrong with all this?
Can anyone help me out?
System preferences.
Mac OS X 10.4.11
Acrobat professional 8.1.2
Thank you

"Does this occur on every PDF file? The internal error message that is ..."
Yes, it happens on every PDF

XI 3 File to IDoc scenario - Still referencing Old Logical system

Hi
Dont know if you can help. I have a file to idoc scenario using XI 3 to R/3 4.6c system.
I had the interface working from a third party system XMLHUB to SAP R/3. The Logical system name for the XMLHUB was XMLHUB01 in the SLD which I have set up as a partner profile in R/3. I have recently changed the logical system name to XMLHUBDEV01 in the SLD and created that logical system in R/3 and changed the partner profile to XMLHUBDEV01.
Unfortunately in the sender information of the IDoc the partner number is still XMLHUB01 and not XMLHUBDEV01. I don't understand where this partner is sent from to get into the control record of the IDoc.
I have cleared the SLD cache in both the Repository and the directory. Is there somewhere else I should be looking? Any help would be appreciated.

Daniel

Step by Step Guide Details for RFC to File and File to RFC scenario

Hi Guru's
Good day to you. I am tyring to develop some scenarios based on RFC adaptor. so i want to start up with basic scenarios like RFC to File scenario(Here i just want to pull some data from SAP using RFC and put it in destination folder as an text file) and FILE to RFC scenario (Here i just want to take some data from the file and update into SAP).
For doing these scenarios i would like to request you people to send me the step by step guide which explains me about the complete steps of configurations required to do the RFC to FILE scenario and FILE to RFC scenario.
I found some scenarios and i am in confused state. so i request you to please put your experience to help me out.
thanks in advance.

Hi Aaron,
I don't know your scenario and your ECC and PI versions but I learned how to use ABAP Proxy more than 1 year ago with the following tutorial:
Edit--> The forum doesn't allow me to post external link, just search "ABAP Proxy Communication Scenario" in google and visit the 1st result
The way to develop ABAP Proxys has changed a little if your PI is 7.1. In the ECC side, the transaction SPROXY looks much better too if you have a recent version of the ECC.
Edited by: Marshal on Oct 8, 2009 5:08 PM
I've found that SDN Document. Maybe the scenario is not the most simple to start with ABAP Proxy but is very well documented and is for PI 7.1. The document also handles the inbound and outbound proxys

Print to PDF - using Snow Leopard (Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose

i have a PDF form that i created that is used as a custom proposal that my company sends out to potential clients. the form in its editable state is only used internally. we recently upgraded to snow leopard, but prior to the upgrade, we were able to fill the custom proposal form out using adobe reader, and, as you well know, we weren't able to save that edited document as a PDF with the custom form fields filled out. our work around using adobe reader was to print to a pdf using the adobe pdf printer in the printer dialog. with the addition of snow leopard, however, instead of choosing the adobe pdf printer, we were to choose PDF from the bottom left corner, then Save As PDF, and it would spit out an uneditable pdf that then allowed us to email it to the potential client without them being able to edit it as well as have an internal, digital copy for our records instead of having lots of paper floating around (i know this is also doable using security that disallows the client certain editing privileges, but printing to a pdf is much quicker and more efficient, and the pdf security isn't really that secure at its best).
in any case, i came across this gem of a post here on the support forums that installs another option from the PDF drop down on the bottom left of the print dialog menu that reads Save As Adobe PDF and is supposed to do exactly what i am trying to get it to do...print to a pdf file from adobe reader.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
once i updated to acrobat 9.2 (as the link above suggests 9.1), however, the Save As Adobe PDF does appear in the print dialog menu, but it still gives me the same error that acrobat 8 - 9 gave me while using Snow Leopard — Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save — and as i've already explained, you can't save an edited pdf form in reader (as i am the only one in the office with acrobat) and still keep the fields as you've entered them in. the only work around is to print to a pdf but is apparently having some recent problems.
using acrobat, however, i know that i can save the editable pdf as a new file with the fields customized as i have left them, but it still saves it as an editable pdf and the print to a pdf option still remains the best option...that way we have digital copies internally that are uneditable that can be printed at any time or emailed to the client.
how can i do print to a pdf, based on what i've written above, using snow leopard and acrobat and reader?

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

PDF file VIEW & PRINT differences: Preview 4.2 & Acrobat 9.3

My original two-page OpenOffice document (.odt file extension) exported to PDF file format (.pdf file extension). I used Acrobat 9.3 to force the document to display both pages as continuous facing - so far, so good. I've found two issues - neither of which appear to be related to OpenOffice. The font used is Arial 10pt and larger (for headings and such).
1) PRINTING: When printing the PDF file from Preview the document size and layout is printed identically when compared to the original ODT file - GOOD! BUT when printing the PDF file from Acrobat 9.3 the margin padding is increased by 0.25 inches on all four sides. YIKES! I was able to fix this problem by getting (i.e., remove the additional padding) by resetting Acrobat's "Page Scaling" option from the default value of "Fit to Printable Area" to "None".
The good news is that saving the file within Acrobat 9.3 with the updated "Page Scaling: None" setting seems to persist - but can I be sure the proper print dimensions are preserved when this PDF file is printed from a Windows platform? Does anyone know why Acrobat increases the margin padding like this?
2) VIEW: I cannot get Preview.app to display the PDF file with continuous facing - only one page at a time is displayed even though View > PDF Display > Two Pages is selected!?! Acrobat 9.3 displays the document correctly with both pages. Any ideas why this may be and how to fix Preview to display both pages upon opening the document?
A minor sub-issue here is that Acrobat 9.3 on Mac OS X seems to use a display font that isn't truly Arial - the display of many characters' line weights are uneven and the document has decidedly Windows-ish look to it. Preview does a much better in displaying the document in true Arial. Fortunately, the true "Arial-ness" of the document in print format is not noticeable once the padding problem was resolved (see above).
I'm mostly concerned about the PRINT variance - I intend to publish/distribute this PDF document (a technical white paper) and many more like it to 1000's of clients but I have no control over which "VIEW" tool they use. Net/net: This unwanted 0.25 inch additional padding really does take away from the visual esthetics of the document - I've shown this variance to several people and we are in 100% agreement on this.
TIA ---

Glad it helped; (for any nit-pickers out there I should have typed 8.2.2, sorry).

Problem with file and printer sharing

I just installed a Linksys WRT54G to replace a D-Link wireless router and cannot reestablish my file and printer sharing since replacing the router. I had file and printer sharing working fine before installing the WRT54G. All of the computers are running either XP Pro or 2000 Pro. I have two printers attached to one of my computers that I was previously sharing with all of the other computers on our home network. One is attached via a parallel port, the other via a USB port.
Here's what I've tried so far without success.
1. The IP of the WRT54G is 192.168.1.1, and the IP's it assigns to my LAN computers begin 192.168.1.XXX. The old IP of the D-Link was 192.168.0.1 and its LAN IPs were 192.168.0.XXX, so I've gone into my firewall and changed the settings for the range of trusted computers to correspond to the WRT54G's IP addresses.
2. I've tried uninstalling the printers and reinstalling them, including reinitializing printer sharing.
3. When I try to use the Windows "Add printer" wizard to add a networked printer, it can see the computer that has the printers attached, but it does not see the printers.
4. I haven't fooled around with the file sharing settings, but they've all be lost too, so I suspect there is a common problem for both printer and file sharing.
Any suggestions would be most welcome. I don't know what would be different about the WRT54G that would cause this problem.

Try this to Enable File and Printer Sharing...Turn Off the Router Firewall...Make sure the Windows Firewall is also Off...

File and Printer Sharing problem

Message Edited by bartman_60042 on 11-13-2007 05:47 AM

Oops...somehow submitted without any text.
My set-up: Linksys Cable Modem with Linksys Wireless Router. 2 Desktop Computers (Black and Grey) and 1 Laptop. Windows XP SP2 with all current upgrades on each.
While setting up File and Printer Sharing, I have the following:
1) The Black computer can file/printer share from both the Grey computer and Laptop.
2) The Grey computer can only file/printer share from the Laptop; not from the Black computer.
3) The Laptop can only file/printer share from the Grey computer; not from the Black computer.
All 3 computers were configured the same as far as I can tell. The only difference I notice is that the Black computer boots without the XP 'login' screen (no password required), could this be causing the problem? If this is the issue, how would I change the settings to 'login' to the Black computer? Any thing else which may be wrong?

File and Printer Sharing Problem with WRT54G

I am currently having problems sharing files over my network. My setup consists of:
3 laptops (wireless)
1 desktop (wired)
WRT54G V6.0 router with firmware version 1.00.9.
All of the computers have File and Printer Sharing enabled, unique names, and are on the same workgroup. However none of the computers can see one another. When I try to view workgroup computers for my network places, the explorer window stops responding for about 30 sec. and then spits out a dialog with the error:
"Workgroup is not accessable. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.
The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available."
I think that this problem has something to do with the router, as I have been successfuly sharing files and a printer with these settings using a microsoft 802.11b router for over a year. After purchasing the linksys and swapping it out with my old router, filesharing no longer functions.
I have spent a little time browsing the forums and have seen other posts from people with simmiler problems, but was unable to find any solutions.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problems as you are, I have 2 computers on wired the other wireless the router is in between and I can't access from either side, although I can ping and remote connect but just cannot share files across the network. I have looked all over the forums too and there saying to ditch linksys and do something else.
Its not you thats caused this it is the firmware and the router that have the problems.
My Specs:
WRT-54G
v5.0
That new firmware update 1.00.9 just isn't working right. I might downgrade my fireware to fix this problem.

Print a file to printer wirelessly and without need to use CD drive to install driver?

I have a HP-P1006 printer in my conference room and sometimes my guest want to send print to my printer and I have to connect their laptop with USB cable to my printer and install printer driver thought CD Drive. I want to know if there is a way to print a file to printer wirelessly and without need to use CD drive to install driver? (I don't have a wireless network in my conference room)

Is it possible to automate Adobe Reader to load files, then set the staple property and location, then print them out? I've seen in .NET 3.0 that there is a Enumeration for Stapling in the System.Printing Namespace. I need to figure out how to automate the printing in adobe but right before it prints, have .NET assign the printer and whether it should be stapled or not.

Cannot get text file to print in jtable. Using text file as a database

Instead of doing JDBC i am using text file as database. I cant get data from text file to print into JTable when i click find button. Goal is to find a record and print that record only, but for now i am trying to print all the records. Once i get that i will change my code to search desired record and print it. when i click the find button nothing happens. Can you please take a look at my code, dbTest() method. thanks.

Nothing happens because in the actionPerformed() method you are creating a new version of GUIdirectory. You just want to execute the dbTest() method of the current instance of GUIdirectory.
The code should be:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
//GUIdirectory gui = new GUIdirectory();
//gui.dbTest();
dbTest();

Message has error status at outbound side File To Idoc Scenario

hi ,
In my File to Idoc scenario , when i go to sxmb_moni , i found that its showing red flag at Outbound Status Tab and showing message "Message has error status at outbound side".
When i go to IDX5 and and select my idoc and click on Transaction Id it shows "Password logon no longer possible - too many faile" .
Please suggest what may be the problem ?
Regards,
Rohit

1. First check the RFC destination name used in receiver Idoc adapter communication channel.
2. As i said earlier, in sm59 transaction in XI gui, u can check same rfc destination under type 3. There check the logon credentials and the username.
3. Now goto the R3 system GUI and check in su01 that same user is locked or not. If locked unlock it.
4. And if u change the password of that user, then do the similar change in XI -> sm59 -> rfc destination logon credential

Error in File to IDOC Scenario

Hi,
I have File to IDOC scenario.
I am getting error in sender file channel.
"Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Mandatory parameter 'xml.keyfieldName': no value found "
Although I have used this parameter in content conversion 'xml.keyfieldName' (for each sub structure and defined a key field).
Despite of this error in sender channel I am receiving the message in XI.
But in XI also it throws error :
"Unable to convert the sender service PG_TOM_CEEMEA_RU_SFA to an ALE logical system"
Any help on this ?

Hello Vikas,
I am getting error in sender file channel.
"Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Mandatory parameter 'xml.keyfieldName': no value found "
Although I have used this parameter in content conversion 'xml.keyfieldName' (for each sub structure and defined a key field).
Check your flat file structure whether the key field you have chosen is appropriate and also recheck the FCC details whether you have assigned the value for the key field i.e. keyFieldValue.
"Unable to convert the sender service PG_TOM_CEEMEA_RU_SFA to an ALE logical system"
regarding the above error refer this
