FTP Adapter - Filename of archived XML File

Hi All,
We are trying to poll Files from Remote Servers using FTP Adapter, after its polled we are keeping the archived file in a directory. Files are archived but its with other name eg: XXXXX.XML is archived as XXXXX.XML_HmuUJDA1qKj2btjp_y1JUeLmgZsJcqhyCnrdlgB6sgU=_20110112_220537_0567.
I want to archive the XML file as it is like XXXXX.XML name only.
Thanks,
Ra

Hi Vinit,
Did you look into the logs? What does it say?
How frequent it happens?
Enable detailed logs by navigating to right click soa-infra > Logs > Log Configuration > Log Levels tab > Search oracle.soa.adapter > Set Trace 32 and see if ther'es anything of interest.

File Adapter and reading all XML files from direcotry

Problem occurs on PI 7.1
I defined sender file adapter. File name mask is: "*.xml" to read all XML messages from directory.
Quality of service is: Exactly One.
Poll Interval: 30
Retry interval: 30
Processing mode: Archive with option "Add Timestamp".
Processing sequence: by name.
I though that with above configuration my File Adapter will be reading folder for all coming XML files. But somehow it is reading XMLs only when I'm activating it in Integration Builder.
Any idea what can cause such strange problem?

Hi Tomasz,
As per my understanding, you need to activate the file adapter for reading the XML files on your directory. Right?
If that is the case, then the issue might be with the Cache.
1. Clear the cache from the Integration Builder.
2. Check in SXI_CACHE whether there are any issues. Click on Delta Cache refresh to find out if there are any cache related issues.
Thanks,

FTP Adapter Configuration For End Of File

Hi Team,
i'm doing DB polling and writing that contents to on file using FTP Adapter, DB poller will poll each line @ a time and writes to remote Server
in my FTP adapter usage, after writing the whole contents which i pass from my bpel,
i need to use some hardcoded values at the end of the file
Eg.
test1|test2|test3|test4
test1|test2|test3|test4
test1|test2|test3|test4
test1|test2|test3|test4
@@Thanks@@
Like shown above after writing some contents
i need to add @@Thanks@@ then one ENTER
Thanks in advance

Ok, now I'm understanding you are using "Append existing file" option checked... The approach won't work with appending on...
If you know when it is the end of the file you can do something like this...
At the first line file will be like this...
line1|line1
Second line...
line1|line1
line2|line2
When you receive the third line and you know that's the last line you write firstly this...
line1|line1
line2|line2
line3|line3
And then you write the @@Thanks@@ at the end using a different translation schema... Possibly a different FTP Adapter writing on the same file...
line1|line1
line2|line2
line3|line3
@@Thanks@@
However, if you don't know when you are receiving the last line and/or you need the @@Thanks@@ always there it won't work with append option... You'll possibly need a sync read FTP adapter to read the file and rewrite it again at every iteration...
Cheers,
Vlad

ESB- FTP adapter unable to poll a file

I have a FTP adapter it has to poll files, with diff naming convention.(like "asd", 'wer',"jkl","AVC"). But the adapter was unable to poll a file which name start with AVC
reamining files are polled successfully.At ftp location ftp adapter will poll file and place all records into DB through ESB,for ESB we can set adapters as inbound.Plz give me any suggessions to solve this problem(10.1.3.4).Thq.

I checked the error logs and it informed it was not able to create the stage directory where as i am only creating the stage directory and providing the path to it.so i could not really understand the exact error.
Does a stage directory get created automatically anywhere else?

File(FTP) Adapter doesn't pick any file from FTP server

Hi All,
This is a strange problem. I am trying to pick all the file from a FTP server using File Name: . . But the file adapter doesn't pick any file from the directory. When I change it to a specific file name eg. ABC.txt then it picks up the file ABC.txt only.
My requirement is to pick up all files in the directory and I just do not seem to understand what is wrong. I have used this wildcard option several times earlier and it always worked fine. But in this case, this does not work.
I changed the FTP server to point to an internal FTP server and it works fine.
I have checked all my parameters and everything looks okay. Like I mentioned earlier, if you specify exact file name, it picks up the file.
Any guess as to what is going on here?

Transport Protocol: FTP
Message Protocol: File
source directory: /test or test ( either one works)
file name: * or . or *.txt nothing works
server: ftp server name
port: 21
data connection: passive
user: ******
pass: ******
connect mode: permanently
transfer mode: text
QOS: exactly once
poll: 10 secs
processing mode: archive ( changed to test and delete as well, but made no difference.)
archive dir: dir path
file type: text
adapter specific attributes:
checked: set adapter specific attributes
and file name.
status: active.

Sender File Adapter: Adapter Module to archive incoming file?

Dear experts,
I have ZIP files coming from an external system which a File Sender adapter picks up from the PI file system. I already added the PayLoadZipBean Module to unzip the file in order to be able to map the payload. It works fine.
Now in the tab "Processing" --> "Processing Mode" I have the option to choose "Archive" and give a path. That way I can archive them also on the PI file system.
But how could I choose an FTP location here? Can I or would I have to write an adapter module?
In case for an adapter module how do I access the incoming ZIP file? Any ideas?
Thank you for any help and best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
I'm afraid you are not fully right about the archiving. Choosing Processing Mode = Archive leads to the file being moved to a different directory once it is processed. According to SAP Help:
Processing Mode
○       Archive
Files that have been successfully processed are moved to an archive directory.
■       To add a time stamp to a file name, select the Add Time Stamp indicator.
The time stamp has the format yyyMMdd-hhMMss-SSS. The time stamp ensures that the archived files are not overwritten and it enables you to sort them according to the time that they were received.
■       Under Archive Directory, enter the name of the archive directory.
■       If you want to archive the files on the FTP server, set the Archive Files on FTP Server indicator. If you do not set the indicator, the files are archived in the Adapter Engine file system.
See here for further details:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/content.htm

FTP Adapter: Inbound and Outbound flat files

Having lots of trouble trying to Send messages (via Subscribe event) with my FTP adapter, with this specific error:
Thu May 12 11:39:10 MDT 2005: Bridge { agent=oracle.oai.agent.client.AgentImpl@2f48d2 application=PAGOFTPAPP partition=null active=true #d3ls=1 } cannot handle OAI message of type newFacility.
I am successfully processing my flat file messages into OAI (via Publish event) and they are being properly written to the OAI_HUB_QUEUE. The message gets all the way to the Bridge, which posts the above error. Can anyone tell me how the Bridge attempts to determine what to do with the messages?
In creating the subscribe event I specified my desired D3L file as the application view, before doing the mapping. I then tried creating mappings at both the top (struct via ObjectCopy) and granular (fields via CopyFields) levels, and always get the same error.
Under "Modify Fields" for the subscribe event I confirmed that ota.isDL3=true and ota.d3lPath points to the D3L XML file that I used to specify the application view (and incidentally is the same one used to process the files that I am processing with the Publish event). I'm trying to get up to speed with OAI and my first test is simply to read in a tab-delimited file and turn around and write it back out to the same structure (but of course to a different target directory).
Much thanks for any assistance anyone can offer! Due to some kind of administrative hiccup we seem to have lost our iTAR capability and it's taking forever to get it back (of course at the worst possible time...)
Richard

Richard,
Not sure if you have found a way around this problem yet, but it sounds like you may have a mismatch bewteen iStudio and your D3L XML that's used to define and transform the message.
In the XML, name should be set to your iStudio defined 'event name', object should be set to the 'business object' and the type should be set to related 'App Data Type'.
As an example of a subscribed event
Subscribe(GLCosts.maintain_costs)
using an ADT called CostRecord...it's a good idea to name your message the same as the type when defining the Application view using the Subscribe Wizard, i.e. don't manually change anything.
So your message header in the D3L XML would look like this:
<message name="maintain_costs" type="CostRecord" object="GLCosts">

FTP Adapter polling lowercase or uppercase files using single adapter

Hello All,
I was wondering if we can use a single FTP Adapter to poll Lowercase or Uppercase files. For example either abc*.txt or ABC*.txt.
Does the FTP adapter by default support this option, because its not working in my Case and if its supported does it depend on the FTP server settings/security.
Help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Kris

How does it decide which files to pickup ? It will pick up files with modification dates more recent than the last processed file.
sometimes it picks up all old files from FTP directoryIf it is picking up the same files, probably it is not being able to calculate the modification dates.
That can be a configuration problem, take a look at this:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_file.htm#BABECEGD
Note: We are not deleting already read files from the folderProbably, not a good thing to do. May you can archive them instead.

FTP Adapter only picking up one file

I have a FTP Adapter configured to pick files (hoping to get multiple files). The file name is set to *, which should mean any files in the directory will get processed. The data connection is Passive. No connection security. Connect Mode is per file transfer. And QOS is EO.
Only one file is being picked up every time the Adapter is run, which is set to 30 minutes. Does anyone know why only one file would be picked up at a time? Is there a setting somewhere that I can't locate?
I appreciate any help.

Hi Larry,
When you want use transport protocol FTP,
we have to specify
Adapter Type: File
1)the source directory( which is name of the shared folder you have given in ftp server: eg /Test)
2)here since you want to pick up all the files in that directory, File Name has to be given as .
3)FTP Server Name
4)Port(default 21)
5)The login name n password.
6)Connection Security: None
7)Connect Mode : Per File Transfer
8) Transfer mode : Binary
Also please go through this link

Some fields in the CSV file can have double quotes (") inside the values like:
"value1""";value2;value3";value4
When this happens, the adapter reject the file. How can i solve this issue? There is some option to set inside the XSD?
Thank you in advance.
Riccardo

Thank you for your help, but I've already tried with the quotedBy atribute and it doesn't work. The double quote character can occur multiple times inside the single value and it's not representing a delimiter: it's a part of the field value. For me it's not important, it could be ignored, but the problem is that I don't know how, since the adapter fails to read the file rejecting it.

Encore & Adaptive Streaming: Editing the .xml file

I have fms 3.5 & 4.0. using dynamic/adaptive streaming with html & smil or f4m...no problem.
I have flash projects made with encore cs5. editing the file authoredcontent.xml to change the media source on the server is easy.
But how is the media source area configured to use adaptive? ideas?

This Apple document explains the difference between the Library file and the xml file:

The xml file is actually an exported version of the Library file that iTunes automatically creates.

[wrt350n v2] FTP storage filename problems (results in file not found error)

When a file is copied to the USB storage drive which contains high range Latin1 characters (e.g. ë or ü) that file is correctly listed but it can not be downloaded, renamed or deleted.
The client receives a 451 error: File does not exist.
I was hoping anyone had a solution for this, other than connecting the drive to my PC.
Many thanks!

FTP Adapter XSD Validation

Hi All,
Oracle InterConnect 10.1.2
Oracle Adapters (AQ,FTP) using XSD
FTP Adapter on local filesystem
In the FTP Adapter, Is there anyway to validate the XML content against the XSD?
The validation is happening at the common view when i use the "Validate XML" check box while creating the event in iStudio. However this option does not appear while configuring the FTP adapter in iStudio. I would like FTP adapter to reject the XML file if the XSD validation fails and move the file to the exception folder.
Objective: XSD should perform datatype, datasize and format validations.
Thanks,
Sherry

Can anyone let me know how to enforce the XSD validation in the adapter. As of now only the structure of the message is being checked.

FTP sender adapter archives empty files

Hi.
I have a strange problem with the ftp sender adapter.
I receive my file without problems, and the scenario works as it should.
The problem is with the archiving of my processed file.
It writes the file fine to the path specified, but it is empty (user has full file permissions)
The ftp adapter uses content conversion, and I have seen threads in the forum that tells about simular errors. But I have found no solution.
Hope someone can help here.
Regards...
Peter

File Content Conversion is usually associated with Receiver File/FTP adapters
and Archiving the source file is an option at the Sender File/FTP Adapter.
No, content conversion is used both in sender and receiver file/FTP adapters.
In my case, it is in a sender adapter!
I'm not sure what you mean when you said "The ftp adapter uses content conversion,..."
The sender FTP adapter content converts a flat file to XML format!
Can you let us know the details of your scenario?
Like who / what is the sender and who/what is the receiver system?
The scenario looks like this: "FTP -> XI -> RFC", but as mentioned before, the scenario works fine, the problem is in the FTP sender adapter that fails to save the archive file.
If I try to use the file/FTP sender adapter in "file mode", with the same parameters, the archive file is written just fine!
Regards...
Peter

Can I control filenaming when archiving files using the file adapter?

Hi folks,
Is there anyway to control the filename used when the File Adapter writes out to an archive?
Second question, I also need to be able to pass a "filename" to the adapter from an "input file." Is there a way to do this in the file adapter?
Sincerely,
lpac

Hi,
I have done that with the ftp adapter. In the .xsl file I wrote the following after the <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" ....> tag:
<xsl:variable name="INFILENAME" select="ehdr:getRequestHeader('/fhdr:InboundFTPHeaderType/fhdr:fileName','fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/ftp/;')"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="OUTFILENAME"
select="ehdr:setOutboundHeader('/fhdr:OutboundFileHeaderType/fhdr:fileName', $INFILENAME, 'fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/;')"/>
<opaque:opaqueElement>
<xsl:value-of select="/opaque:opaqueElement"/>
</opaque:opaqueElement>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
To use this with the file adapter, you would have to wirte file where is written ftp.
Hope this helps,
Zaloa
