FTP Adapter on OSB - how to specify logical directory path

I am using the ftp adapter on osb 11g (Oracle Service Bus Version: [Oracle Service Bus Server Side Dependencies 11.1 Thu Aug 19 02:10:08 PDT 2010 ] Oracle Weblogic Server Version: [WebLogic Server 10.3.4.0 Fri Dec 17 20:47:33 PST 2010 1384255 ])
I defined the ftp adapter using jdev and imported the jca artifacts into osb.
I created a business service using jca adapter to put the file to the ftp server.
The problem is the write directory on the ftp server is different for each environment - DEV, QA, PROD.
I used a physical directory specification when defining the adapter in JDEV because it wasn't clear from the help how i would override a logical directory during deployment to osb (it is clear if deploying to soa suite).
Is there a way to override this dynamically override this directory at runtime. Or even better a way to override during deployment time?

You do it either way....
Import the SBConfig jar into the sbconsole and change the value in the JCA file

FTP Adapter in OSB

Hi Guys,
I have used an FTP adapter in OSB and it is working fine. What I want to do is to override the Delete File setting for the adapter.
I don't want to delete(or archive) the file/s (scenario e.g. is that I have to send the same file over and over again).
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can overide the Delete File setting by using a logical name instead of a physical path to the folder.
When you use logical names for the file read and archive locations, two properties are added to the service/reference binding with the name you have given them in the wizard.
The value between the tags can be overwritten. Initials they''re blank/empty.
<property name="fileDelLoc" type="xs:string" many="false" override="may">c:\temp\out</property>
<property name="fileLoc" type="xs:string" many="false" override="may">c:\temp\in</property>
These properties can be changed on deployment time with a configuration plan or on runtime via the EM in the settings page of the service binding.
<service name="ReadFileService">
<property name="fileDelLoc">
     <replace></replace>
   </property>
   <property name="fileLoc">
     <replace></replace>
   </property>
   <binding type="jca"/>
</service>

How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system

Hi Firends,
How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system , whenevr i will click on browse button.
Please give reply for this one , if anybody knows.
Thanks,
Anderson.

Hi Anderson,
if you're using flash.filesystem.FileReference - then it is run in black box - except of filename, size and creation data (and few other properties available after some operation succeeded). This is part of security features in Flash runtime (described in header section):
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/FileReference .html
This for example implies that user can download a content to local machine - but that content cannot be loaded back into Flash runtime. For this you would need either Air runtime flash.filesystem.File:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filesystem/File.h tml
(so you would created Air runtime based application: desktop or mobile but not web, even as standalone project) or you would need one of 3rd party tools that add file access/file information features to standard Flash runtime applications converted to standalone native applications.
hth,
kind regards,
Peter

Passing Streaming Content to a JCA FTP adapter in OSB

Hi,
Is there any way to pass streaming content represented by e.g.<con:binary-content ref="cid:1b6ff6d0:1416f7a74ab:-1d8a" xmlns:con="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/context"/> to JCA FTP(business service) adapter?
My binary content already represents base64Binary format. Content is around 250Mb so there is no possibility to put it to memory(java.lang.OutOfMemoryError).

How to specify source directory in File sender adpate using (NFS)?

Hello experts,
I am doing File-PI-Proxy scenario.
Input file is available on machine which is within the Network area and FTP is not available on that machine.
For this reason I am using the NFS Transport Protocol.
In ID File sender I have specified Source Directory:-
IP Address\Directory
I am geeting the Error in RWB as 'Configured source directory '
IP Address\Directory' does not exist'.
Please suggest how to specify the Source Directory path.
Regards,
Jagesh

Hi,
If you want to use NFS protocol, then the file needs to be within the a folder in the XI server and not outside it, In your case if you need to use the file in a different machine which is on a network then try to use the FTP protocol.
Refer this blog:
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/08/01/along-came-a-file-adapter-mr-ftp-and-rest-of-the-gang which shows the details of how you can install a local FTP and use it

FTP Adapter to read multiple files from a directory. Not through polling.

Dear Friends,
I would like to know is it possible to configure the FTP adapter in Oracle BPEL 10.1.3.4 to read multiple files (different names, same structure) from a given directory. I do not want the BPEL to do a polling. Instead when I submit the BPEL process it should read all files from the directory.
I was looking at the option of Synchronous read but I am not able to specify wild card in the file name field. I do not know the file names at the time of reading.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
While you read the file, you can configure an adapter property in 'Receive'. This will store the filename, this filename can be used for sync read as the input parameter.
1. Create a message type variable called 'fileheader'. This should be of type Inboundheader_msg (whatever relevant Receive activity).
2. This variable will contain three parts - filename, FTPhost, FTPPort
3. Copy this fileheader to 'Syncheader'.
4. syncheader can be passed as an adapter proerty during sync read of the file.
During Receive and Invoke, you need to navigate to 'Adapter' tab to choose the created message type variable.
Let me know if you have further questions.
regards,

How to specify the directory in which we want to store the uploaded files

Hello !!
I am using apache commonfile upload for uploading my files.I followed the user guide and tried to run a program,but my problem is I am not able to understand as to how to mention the directory in which the uploaded file will be saved..My code is given below :

                              System.out.println(value);

                               fileName = FilenameUtils.getName(fileName);
                                System.out.println(fileName);

          catch (Exception e) { }
     public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)throws ServletException,IOException
             doGet(request,response);
The problem is that the control doesn't reach the try statement and I get " File not written" on the console because it enters catch everytime..Please tell me how the path to the directory should be given...Rest of the code is working fine

No, the problem is that when an Exception is thrown, you ignore it completely and throw away all the information associated with it. That leaves you to guess at what the problem is. So instead of answering your guess at a good question, I'm going to suggest that in all of your catch blocks you put this code:e.printStackTrace();Then you can look at the output in the log file and see what the problem is. Start from there.

How to specify the directory of a file created by FileOutputStream?

I created a file name registry.reg. Can I specify the directory of the file so that it would be located in certain directory. For example I want to put registry in C:\Desktop
FileOutputStream fileStream = new FileOutputStream ("registry.reg");

Well, just provide the complete path as file name parameter. On Windows, remember to escape those backslashes:
FileOutputStream fileStream = new FileOutputStream ("C:\\Desktop\\registry.reg");

FTPs connection error:When using Variable substitution for Directory path

Hi
I am transferring data from BI to xml file via PI: Here a Client proxy from BI sends the data to PI and the PI FTPs the XML file to a remote location. For FTP I am using FTPs SSL connection.
It was working fine untill I used Variable susbstitution to determine Directory path dynamically. I am using this because different xml files are intended to goto the different locations.
I did the variable substitution like this:
Target Message Structure:
---> Target Directory: %var1%
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
<Header>
<Directory>/Customer</Directory>
</Header>
<Detail>
</Detail>
</MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
And in the variable substitution I am doing it this way
payload:MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE,1,Header,1,Directory,1
And the error I am getting is:
Attempt to process file failed with Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: iaik.security.ssl.SSLException: Peer sent alert: Alert Fatal: handshake failure

Does anybody have some Idea of this ??

Naina

Hi,
I guess the problem is not with Variable Substitution..
Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool:
So its a connection problem..
Also check the option Disable Security check and try again...
Try to check again if the interface is executing properly without Variable substitution and let us know..

How to get absolute directory path of a resource?

Hi,
I wished to retrieve the absolute directory path of a resource, for example, "demo.test" in the folder of "/document/personal". How to I get the value "/document/personal", is there any IPropertyName i could use?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
first, the accessRID is the RID which was used at creation time, maybe containing links; these are resolved, so you will get the "physical" place where the file is stored by <i>getRID</i>.
Second, to determine the path without the name of the file, there are at least three possibilities without looping (resource, the file, is an instance of IResource):
1.) String path = resource.getParentCollection().getRID().toString();
2.) String path = resource.getRID().toString().substring(0, resource.getRID()().toString().lastIndexOf('/'));
3.) String path = resource.getRID()().toString().substring(0, resource.getRID()().toString().length() - resource.getName().length());
Solution 1 seems to be very intuitive (you ask for the folder path, where the file is in), 2 & 3 are shorter than a loop, but not intuitive and in general dangerous (when using substring, you have to take care of exceptions caused by strange parameters).
Hope it helps

Passing file name dynamically in Synchronous read operation of FTP adapter in OSB

Hi,
We are implementing the integration in OSB 11g and using FTP JCA adapters to check if the file exists in the FTP location or not. We are using Synchronous read operation of FTP adapters. We need to pass the file name dynamically at run time. In the JCA file we can hard code the file name. How that file name can be taken dynamically using OSB.
Regards,
Sharmistha

Hi Sandeep,
This is possible.
For creating filenames dynamically for your sender, you will have to crate a variable name ( eg: %VAR%) as you file name and then you will have to give the name of your file under variable substitution. Just check this link for more info,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/14/80243b4a66ae0ce10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
In the case of receiver file adapaters, you have 5 options for file creation like,
1.Create
2.Append
3. Add time stamp
4.Add Counter
5. Add Message ID
You can choose any of these options or you can do it dynamically from you payload. Just check out this help link for more info,

How to specify a file path in java code to run on Unix machine?

Hi
I have a problem when running my project Swing on Unix machine.
In my code, the user will press a button and then the program will look for the file "ReadMe" in the folder "Documentation" , and reads the content of this file. My code is "Documentation\\ReadMe" and it works well on PC. (The folder "Documentation" is in the same directory with my Java code).
But when I try on Unix, the program can not read the file. It can only read the file "ReadMe" if I take this file and put it in the same directory with my Java code ( this means not through another folder). So how can we make it read the file in a folder ? It seems that "Documentation\\ReadMe" does not work in Unix, or the symbol "\\" does not work.
I would be thankful if anybody can help me with this.
Thank you very much

You really shouldn't use any path method, as neither are very consistant or platform independent. The JVM provides a way to grab resources from the classpath. These resources can be any data at all, in fact, it's how java itself locates classes. Here's an example how you would do this in a non-static method.
public URL getReadMe() {
// In this context the forward slash is universal
String docDirectory = "Documentation/"
// We have to use the classloader to grab the resource
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
// Next we get the resource
URL readMeURL = cl.getResource(docDirectory + "ReadMe");
return readMeURL;
}The URL can be used in whatever way you need to get the information out of the resource. If it was an image you might use the "Toolkit" to make an image object out of it. The great thing about this method is it will work even if your loading the program out of a Jar file. The resource paths start at the top of the classpath, just like classes.

How to specify the saving path pdf by a "saveas" button in Javascript?

Hello,
Firstly, I use LiveCycle ES3 designer on PC. I created a form with a button executing a Java script that opens a dialog box "save as ..." like this:
\ \ Script save-as \ \
app.execMenuItem ("SaveAs");
I would like to predefine a file path to open the dialog box that opens by default on the current location of the file "C: \ export \" for example.
Could someone help me telling me the code and nomenclature to be used for this?
I know Livecycle use XFA language and can use the "myDoc.saveAs ();" but I do not know how :-/
I found this post in this forum but I don't understand how to use this code directly with a click event on a button
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/685920
There is also a tutorial here but I can not seem to apply
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-save-pdf-acrobat-javascript
Thank you in advance for your help :-)

Try putting this script in the click event of the button
Hidden_Text_Field_Path.rawValue=this.somExpression;
This ought to work using either FormCalc or JavaScript. I'm not sure from your description whether you will need to use the full path name for the hidden text field or use a relative one, but that's not too hard to deal with.

Just remove the c:\ and it will be looked for in the current directory.
If you want the script how get the script path and remove the file name or use the shell
currentFolder = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").CurrentDirectory
