Files not getting picked from the FTP site

Dear All,
We are having one File-XI-RFC scenario running in XI-PRD Server. Sometimes what happens is that files available in the FTP site are not getting picked by the File adapter. I have checked in the adapter monitoring and communication channel is active there. Also, there are no errors regarding this in SXMB_MONI. I have configured alerts also but for this case no alerts are getting trigerred. And also when I am reactivating that particular communication channel then that file is getting picked instantaneously.
Can anybody please guide me on what might be the real cause for this as this error is happening randomly.
regards,
N.Jain.

HI,
Have you used per File transfer parameter in FTP Communication channel.
It makes the FTP adapter inactive in ideal time.
So add the poll interval may be for every 30 mins or something like it. It will forcefully activate the FTP port after every 30 mins. You may have the poll interval for every 1 min. Only the files to be picked up are getting logged in in XI monitoring.
So there will be no garbage collection of unwanted messages in Monitoring.
Thanks
Swarup

File not getting created at the Reciever

Hi All,
I have implemented a simeple file to file scenario. The file is getting deleted from the source directory but is not getting created in the target directory. It shows a checkered flag in SXMB_MONI . When i do Communication Channel monitoring for the reciever Comm. Channel, it shows no messsages .
I have refreshed the Cache in Integration directory. it is still not working.
I tried using a different Communication channel with the Mail adapter that is working fine.
I cant figure out what the problem is please help.
Many Thanks,
Neha

Hi! Neha,
Here i want to add some points :
Even I faced same problem in project....... then I followed this procedure...
My scenario is FILE TO RFC via FTP Server in file adapter.
Here issue is file is picking from FTP and showing success in MONI but data is not reaching to BW system..
Most of the times I checked and I did successfully.
Main issue are due to:::
1. Check Queues in Inbound queue SMq2
2. Trace teh step by step in message flow in message monitoring that means check whether message flows
from a) Intergration Engine
b) Adapter Engine..
3. Check and trace the flow in Message monitoring in Run Time work Bench
4. Check Status of Receiver communication Channel in Communication channel Monitoring
5) Check whether Business Services are Scheduled in Availability Time planning or not
6 Also Check in Visual admin whether the services are released or not if any others are might using the same servivcees and cahnnels and suppose if they are scheduled or not
7. Do Cache Refresh mainly SXI CACHE, ADAPTER ENGINE CACHE
8 Finally if still not resolved J2EE ENgine SOFT Restart..instead of doing restarting entire XIengine server.
Once the Server is started then defintely all the messages if suppose if 40 messages are picked from source directory and not reached to Target then all those definetely 100% become success and reached
Note:: All above needs to check only if development part is correctly configured.
Also check the Receiver target and sender directory Permissions in FTP Server i.e., rwx permissions okay

Hi,
If you have using thec orrect file name and extesnsion in the comms channel and still the file is not getting picked up then Could you check the file permission/authorizatios for the XI user you are using in XI to pick up the file from the source directory ?
The file should at least have the permissions to Read/Write.

Excise rate and value is not getting defaulted from the purchase order

Hi all,
While capturing excise invoice , the excise rate and value is not getting defaulted from the purchase order and in Excise Item Tab BED,AED,ECS is Zero at both header as well as item level for only one material in STO process and if we are doing same process taking other material all things are coming perfectly and We are maintaining condition with respect to vendor,plant and material combination.Any input related to this will be helpfull and rewarded.
Regards
Vishal

Hi,
Follow STO Process for this;
1.Create a vendor for the company code of receiving plant, using account group: 0007 using T-Code XK01.
2. Assign this vendor to Delivering plant
Go to XK02 >Purchasing view>Extras>Add. Purchasing data>Plant
3. Create internal customer with the sales area of the vendor. Go To XD01
4. In pricing procedure determination relevant to STO, assign document Pricing Procedure and customer pricing procedure appropriate for STO to get the pricing in the invoice.
5. Maintain condition records for the relevant pricing condition.
6. Some more setting for STO: Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > define shipping data for plants > Go to Receiving plant >assign customer here & Supplying SA (for billing) to Receiving plant here
7. Go to MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > define shipping data for plants > Go to Supplying plant and assign the sales area of receiving plant.
8. Go to MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > assign delivery Type & Checking rule
Assign the delivery type to document type. In this case, Delivery type NLCC is assigned to Document type NB
9. Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > Assign document Type, One step Procedure, Under delivery tolerance
Assign the document type NB to supplying plant and receiving plant
10. After all settings, Create the STO using T-Code: ME21N and maintain pricing conditions of freight and Save.
11. In supplying plant Maintain condition record in sales using VK11 the same will flow in receiving plant when referring the OBD no during MIGO.
10. Create Delivery: VL10G
12. Picking, PGI: VL02N
13. Billing: VF01
Save the document and its done
14. J1IIN - Outgoing Excise Invoice
15. MIGO - Goods Receipt against outbound Delivery
16. J1IEX - Capture & Post Excise Invoice

File not getting picked with Sender Adapter

Hello Experts,
i have configured file sender adapter which is polling configured directory every 60 sec. But i could see file not getting picked up. when looked into Communication channel monitoring i could see following error:
Putting message into send queue failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DuplicateMessageException : Message ID aa2ec9a0-44b3-11dc-9c5b-0003baa19669(OUTBOUND) already exists in database: com.sap.sql.DuplicateKeyException: ORA-00001: unique constraint (SAPDX1DB.SYS_C00120924) violated.
is this due to adapter cache. we are on SP20.
has anybody faced this problem earlier?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Rajeev

Hello
actually there was small problem in file generation and hence it was failing in message mapping which is resolved. but still that problem is there when it is attempting to delete the file. hence it is not able to delete that file.
can we manually clear the send queues or should we refresh CPA cache?
Thanks

File not getting picked.

If a file is not getting picked
where can be issue...what is the first thing we should do....
what is the exact location we should go...
Harsha

Hi Harsha,
As your FTP is not picking up the file , you can please try out the following.
1. Kindly check whether you are able to ping your server.
2. Check whether you have correctly entered the name of your source folder in the sender communication channel.
3. Also confirm the name of the file you are trying to send is same as mentioned in the sender channel.
4. Check the user credentils ,i.e. you have entered the correct id and password in the sender communication channel.
5. Please check the permissions of the the source folder i.e. they should be "write / read " with read atleast.
If you are still facing the same problem ,kindly revert.
Kindly reward the points if you find this reply has helped you solve / analyzed your problem.

File not getting picked up JMS sender communication chnanel in EOIO mode

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario to process the messages in sequence via JMS sender comm channel. We changed the jms channel to EOIO, after the change, the channel is in green but no message arrives to the Adapter engine.
We are working on a newly installed PI 7.11 system.
When i change the jms to EO the files are getting picked and processed by the channel from the JMS MQ client.
Is there any setting that needs to be checked or changed?
Are any drivers issue?
Thanks.

Did you create the Queue to be used for the EOIO messages ?
For EO it would used any of existing Queues to process the messages for EOIO you have to mention specific Queue name which has to hold the messages in EOIO fasion.
pls share the config details of JMS Sender Processing Tab. I'm sure once you setup the Queue it should work.
Thanks

File not getting picked up by the FTP Adapter.............URGENT

Hi Experts,
I have created simple File to File scenario to archive a xml file of size 640 MB with in a FTP server.
I monitored the channel for 2 hrs, it started but didn't picked the source file.

Files not getting picked up using Sender Communication Channel frm MDM sy

Hi Experts,
XI sender communication channel is configured to pick up any files coming from MDM system from the following path
/XXX/XXX/mdm/mds/XXX/XXX/Material_Master/Outbound/P33/P33_R3_PORT/Ready
Earlier we had the scenario working properly that created idocs in R3 system.(MDM>XI>R3)
Currently i tried to test the scenario again but i don't see an entry in the sxmb_moni or tried checking whether the sender communication channel is working properly it showed polling correctly in RWB.The files are already sitting in the the above path.XI should be picking it up but don't know what the problem is?
I also tried a test in RWB>Integration Engine>Test Message put the payload and it was able to create idocs in R3.So i concluded there is an error in picking up message from MDM.
Is there any log available for the commmunication channel where i can see error info of whether any files picked up or not.
Please suggest me what all can be done to to ensure the CC is picking up the files.
Earlier responses highly appreciated.
B'Rgds,
Sudhansu

Hi,
In addition to the RWB channel check suggested by Aamir, you should also check if the channel is
1) Active in ID
2) Channel is not locked in VA, if it is locked then your status in RWB will show processing started but the files wont be picked up...for more details check the unlocking procedure mentioned in this thread:
JDBC Sender Adapter - NOT FETCHING RECORDS -PROCESSING STARTED
The unlocking procedure is the same for FILE and JDBC....

Hi joel,
From this thread
Shared Files - problems after upgrading APEX 3.0 to 3.1
i have taken your words,
In my development of the browser cache support for static files, I did notice some unexplainable behavior with IE and Firefox. When uploading static files and then testing them, it almost seemed like the browser would request the resource only some of the time (and then get the HTTP 304). If an Expires tag is not computed, I know Firefox will compute one itself.
As per my understanding, Is it cache_expire should be calculated?
I could not get that line.Could you please explain me.
Thanks in advance.

In oracle B2B multiple files are getting picked from SFTP location for one file in custer environment

Flow is like :
REST ENDPOINT->OSB PROXYSERVICE->BUSINESS SERVICE->B2B SFTP LOCATION->B2B->SOA JMS Queue->SOA COMPOSITE-
Due to cluster environment, there is issue when B2B picks the file from SFTP location for Custom protocol using sftp listening channel. Sometimes B2B picks multiple files from SFTP location for just one copy of file. It is happening because of cluster environment 4 instances of server is looking into the SFTP location for picking the file and sometime 2 or more instances of server are reading same file and sending the copy to B2B.
Please let me know , how can I stop this behavior

All QFE's have been applied we are building the image so we have some control.
I have build an image which used the debug DLL's of the FATFS and I have enabled all of the DebugZones. The problem is still happening. From the timings in the debug logs and the timestamps in the data which corrupts the test file I have been able
to see that the file is corrupted AFTER the write is complete. Or at least that's how it seems.
We finished writing the file and closed the handle. Then more data is written to other files. When we get around to verifying the file it now contains data from the files that were subsequently written.
What I think I need to do is figure out in detail how the two files were "laid down" onto the SDCard. If the system used the same cluster to write the 2 files then that would explain the issue.
