FTP Adapter - Overwrite file

Hi All,
Quick help!
I am using dynamic FTP adapter and want to overwrite the already existing file in the destination FTP server.
I know there is an option to append, is there any option to overwrite the file , may be by using 'Before Put' to delete the file. Any idea on the exact syntax and procedure ?
thanks,
varun
Thanks, Varun

Hi Varun,
You cannot (IMHO) do this at the FTP Adapter level.
IMHO you'd have to create a custom FTP Adapter with a specific config option to check for duplicates and what to do if you find it.

How can ftp-adapter overwrite an existing file

Hi,
I have an ftp-adapter that I want to overwrite an existing file when publishing a new message. I want the receiving application to handle only the latest file (==state of an export)
now my ftp-adapter logs an error if the file it wants to put already exists.
Is there a parameter that can set this??
thanks,
Ton

You can use the file.sender_customizer_class property in the adapter.ini to hook in your implemented FileSenderCustomizer class where you can use your own logic in the GenerateFileName method. This is a possibility to create a unique file name per run.
Kind regards, hope it helps

Need help with a simple process with FTP Adapter and File Adapter

I am trying out a simple BPEL process that gets a file in opaque mode from a FTP server using a FTP adapter and writes it to the local file system using a File Adapter. However, the file written is always empty (zero bytes). I then tried out the FTPDebatching sample using the same FTP server JNDI name and this work fine surprisingly. I also verified by looking at the FTP server logs that my process actually does hit the FTP server and seems to list the files based on the filtering condition - but it does not issue any GET or RETR commands to actually get the files. I am suspecting that the problem could be in the Receive, Assign or Invoke activities, but I am not able identify what it is.
I can provide additional info such as the contents of my bpel and wsdl files if needed.
Would appreciate if someone can help me with this at the earliest.
Thanks

FTP adapter pass file name to command

I am executing a command after the reciever FTP adapter. The filename that ftp-ed has a dynamic name and I need to execute the command against that file. Is there a way I can pass that filename as a variable to the unix command. I know how the UNIX shell wants it, I just do not know how to set that name as a variable in XI.
Thanks

Go through this url where you can pass the same filename from a sender to a receiver file adapter. But you SP should be 14 and above.

Issue with FTP Adapter ListFiles files with spaces in the filename

Hi
I have an FTP adapter that does a ListFiles of all the files in a directory. It comes back and everything works fine however it removes all spaces from the filename meaning when I do the GET afterwards this fails as it is a different filename.
The filename is a0eQ0000000wJVdIAM~1~ technote316.TIF note the space between ~ and technote.
When a ListFiles is done I get the following request response in BPEL execution:
<messages>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi PG,
Is your private file in the form of Java Keystore (.jks)? I had used .ppk file and it was a success.
If it is .jks in your case, try using the same password for private key as of keystore file (.jks). I hope you're not supplying any PASSWORD in the Adapter properties.

FTP Adapter XML file with Attachments in SOA 11g.

Hi All,
I have a unique requirements where I need to generate an XML file and write it to an FTP server through SOA 11g. The content of this XML File may contain attachments like agreement copies, terms and conditions (files in *.pdf format). Now sometimes I need to add these pdfs as attachments and include them in the XML file and write them to FTP Server from SOA 11g.
Has anyone ever encountered such a scenario. Can you throw light on how this could be achieved.
Thanks,
Venkat

I am not entirely sure by what do you mean by "including attachments inside the XML" ?
Do you want to say that XML might contain the contents of the attachment, something like this -
<XML_Body>
<Attachment>content in cleartext</Attachment>
</XML_Body>
Or should it contain pointers like "href" inside the XML ?

10.1.3.4 - ESB FTP adapter not processing the files in the input directory

I created a process that reads from a logical inputDir. I migrated the ESB service to another box and created the same adapter connection etc. however nothing really happens in this new environment. In the opmn.log i see the following statements and no other info.
2008-12-16 14:03:41,994> <INFO> <collaxa> <ServerManager::loadProcesses> Done loading processes for all domains

The last message "Connection Created" keeps repeating, but no processing occurs. I tried increasing all the loggers to finest. but still nothing happens.
any idea how to troubleshoot this ? the only difference in the environment is that the new environment has 10.1.3.4 MLR2 and the first one is just plain 10.1.3.4

Make sure that you modified the oc4j-ra.xml file in the FtpAdapter directory and have put the correct hostname and username and password. The directory structure looks like this //some-directory/oc4j_soa/application-deployments/default/FtpAdapter/oc4j-ra.xml.

How to give a dynamic File Name for Receiver File/FTP Adapter.

Hi Experts,
    I have one scenario in which we are creating a flat file of IDOC which is coming from R/3 & sending it to FTP location. For this we have configured Receiver FTP adapter with File Name Scheme as "NT.out" & in File Consturction mode i have given as "Add Time Stamp".
    therfore while creating a file it is creating as NTyyyyMMdd-HHmmss-SSS.out
where as my requirement is only to to add Time & not the Date. (NThhmmss.out)
    How to do this ?
    for your info we are using ABAP Mapping.
    Pl help me
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
      Add one more field to your target structure for your file name and populate that field as per your requirement like NTyyyyMMdd.out. In receiver communication channel use Variable subtiution option and give the refrence of Payload and file construction mode set as create.
And refer the below weblogs for Variable Subtiutuion File Name Scheme

How to set file permission using Oracle FTP Adapter

Hi,
I am using Oracle SOA Suite 11.1.1.4. I am trying to put a file using Oracle FTP adapter on unix box. The file that gets written to target system has file permission as RW/R/R. But this is a legacy system, and for them to consume this file - they expect the file permission to be RW/RW/R.
They have set the .profile with the required permissions for the ftp user account that we are using. But still when my BPEL process writes a file to unix box through ftp adapter, the file permission is RW/R/R.
Is there any way to control file permissions while writing files using ftp adapter? Any help would be highly appreciated.

907597 wrote:
But these setting needs to be done on unix server. Yes, that's the way to go... There's no config for that on FtpAdapter as far as I know...
This setting will enable the same configurations for all other ftp accounts on the server, which doesnt sound correct. Any other way of doing this? Or can this be done only for one ftp account?You have to check if your ftp server is capable of having different umask for different ftp users... I believe most do not...

RENAME/COPY/DELETE a file using FTP Adapter in 11g using dynamic values

Hi All
We have a requirement to do the above for a client. I was able to find a post\blog that tells you to add the below properties in FTP adapter JCA file and it works but,
<interaction-spec className="oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.outbound.FTPIoInteractionSpec">
<property name="SourcePhysicalDirectory" value="foo1"/>
<property name="SourceFileName" value="bar1"/>
<property name="TargetIsRemote" value="false"/>
<property name="TargetPhysicalDirectory" value="foo2"/>
<property name="TargetFileName" value="bar2"/>
<property name="Type" value="COPY"/>
</interaction-spec>
The problem is that how to assign these values dynamically (from xpath or bpel variables etc). Can somebody provide me with some pointers? Its very urgent!

Use the below approach to set the directory and file names dynamically.
In BPEL source mode, specify the bpelx:inputProperty. Set the values for these variables in bpel. These can also be accessed as bpel preference values.
<invoke>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.SourceFileName" variable="SourceFileNameVar"/>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.TargetFileName" variable="TargetFileNameVar"/>
</invoke>

FTP Adapter in SOA10.1.3.4.0 MLR4 doesn't work and no errors either

Hi All:
First my env summary:
I have install SOA10.1.3.4.0 (with MLR4) on my laptop (Windows XP). Also I have install Filezilla Server on same laptop.
In Fillezilla, I have configured a ftp location to "F:\MyFTPServer" directory. F drive is a local drive on my laptop. Also I have created a user called "soa" with password "soa" to be able to access this FTP server.
Under F:\MyFTPServer directory, I have 3 sub folders:
In -- to get file
Out -- to drop the file
Archive -- to archive the file after get and drop
I have successfully accessed this ftp server from other computer using either MS-DOS FTP command or FTP software (e.g. WinSCP) as user "soa". I am able to drop file to "In" dirrectory and get file from "Out" directory.
Above confirms my FTP server is ready to be used.
Next, in SOA 10.1.3.4.0 AS console, I have create a new Connection Factory called "*eis/Ftp/myFtpServer*" (there is a seeded one called eis/Ftp/FtpAdapter and I didn't touch/configure it).
the following is the settings for eis/Ftp/myFtpServer
host: my laptop computer name
port: 21
ftpAbsolutePathBegin: /
ftpPathSeparator: /
listParserKey: WIN
username: soa
password: soa
serverType: win
for the rest settings, I leave as default.
Then, I create a simple BPEL process with following components:
One FTP Adapter called "MyFTP" with following parameters:
<jca:operation
FileType="ascii"
PhysicalDirectory="In"
ActivationSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.inbound.FTPActivationSpec"
PhysicalArchiveDirectory="Archive"
DeleteFile="true"
IncludeFiles=".*\.csv"
PollingFrequency="60"
MinimumAge="60"
FileModificationTime="FileSystem"
ModificationTimeFormat="4,18,yyyyMMddHHmmSS"
OpaqueSchema="false"
</jca:operation>
<service name="MyFTP">
<port name="GetFile_pt" binding="tns:GetFile_binding">
<jca:address location="*eis/Ftp/myFtpServer*" UIincludeWildcard="*.csv" />
</port>
</service>
I create one Receive activity to get file from "MyFTP" FTP Adapter.
Using above setting, my intention is to poll any file (*.csv) from F:\MyFTPServer\In directory and receive it into my receive activity.
I deployed my project to SOA application server and stop/restart my SOA application once.
Now, the real stuff begins:
I dropped 2 simple, very small (size < 1KB) files called sample.csv and sample2.csv to F:\MyFTPServer\In diretory.
In my domain.log file, I can see my BPEL process is starting polling every 1 minute without any error:
<2010-09-16 15:29:25,015> <INFO> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <File Adapter::Inbound> Managed Connection Created
<2010-09-16 15:29:25,015> <INFO> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <File Adapter::Inbound> Connection Created
<2010-09-16 15:30:25,016> <INFO> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <File Adapter::Inbound> Managed Connection Created
<2010-09-16 15:30:25,016> <INFO> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <File Adapter::Inbound> Connection Created
Meanwhile, I am observing Filezilla server log and it clearly said every one minute (the timestamp match to bpel domain.log 100%), user "soa" login to this FTP server and list both files (sample.csv and sample2.csv) in "In" directory. Then it quits.
However, I don't see any BPEL instance is created (In my BPEL project, I have cheched "Create Instance" when create my receive activity). And both files are still there in "In" folder. Per my configuration of "MyFTP" FTP adapter, the file should be deleted after it is polled successfully (*DeleteFile*="true")

I am bit of confused. In my case, there is no any error anywhere; however, FTP Adapter in my bpel project doesn't poll file either. It does login to FTP server every one minute; did a list command; then quit.
You may suggest I change the following 2 settings in my bpel project:
FileModificationTime="FileSystem"
ModificationTimeFormat="4,18,yyyyMMddHHmmSS"
however, I think they are set correctly, because it match to MDTM command result in my Filezilla server log (see above and below). The modificaiton time format starts at position 4 and ends with position 18 with correct mask
(000137)9/16/2010 15:30:25 PM - soa (10.1.90.187)> MDTM /In/sample2.csv
(000137)9/16/2010 15:30:25 PM - soa (10.1.90.187)> 213 *20100916184802*
Can anyone offer me some help? I am desperately want make this work so that I can show this example to others here.
Thanks in advance!

TimestampOffset in FTP Adapter activation agent properties

Hi all,
I am having an issue using the "timestampOffset" FTP Adapter activation agent property on an SOA Suite 10.1.3.4/MLR#9 (Linux) system.
I have a BPEL process that is being launched via the FTP Adapter when a particular file appears on a remote SFTP server. I am polling for this file every 5 mins, and don't want to retrieve it unless it is at least 15 minutes old. The SFTP server from which I am retrieving this file is configured with a different timezone than the SOA Suite server on which the BPEL process is running; the SOA Suite server has a timezone of MST (GMT-7) and the SFTP server has a timezone of GMT. Here is the relevant section from the WSDL for this PartnerLink:
<jca:operation
FileType="binary"
LogicalDirectory="TriggerDirectory"
ActivationSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.inbound.FTPActivationSpec"
DeleteFile="true"
IncludeFiles="external_ids_trigger\.txt"
PollingFrequency="300"
MinimumAge="900"
ModificationTimeFormatOld="43,54,MMM dd yyyy"
FileModificationTime="DirListing"
ModificationTimeFormat="43,54,MMM dd HH:mm"
OpaqueSchema="true" >
</jca:operation>
I attempted to compensate for this by adding the "timestampOffset" property to the activation agent in bpel.xml (also included in the jdev_files.zip attachment); this is detailed in the document "Oracle Application Server Adapters for Files, FTP, Databases, and Enterprise Messaging User’s Guide 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) B28994-01". Here is the activationAgents section from the bpel.xml file:
<activationAgents>
<activationAgent className="oracle.tip.adapter.fw.agent.jca.JCAActivationAgent" partnerLink="PollForTriggerFile">
<property name="TriggerDirectory" type="LogicalDirectory">/uazsa/uazsaprd/integration/output</property>
<property name="portType">Get_ptt</property>
<property name="timestampOffset">25200000</property>
</activationAgent>
</activationAgents>
When deploying this BPEL project to the server, it shows the "timestampOffset" property for the JCA adapter in the log, as follows:
<2010-01-17 11:23:39,619> <INFO> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <AdapterFramework::Inbound> JCAActivationAgent::initiateInboundJcaEndpoint - Creating and initializing inbound JCA endpoint for:
process='bpel://localhost/default/External_System_ID_Sync~1.0/'
domain='default'
WSDL location='PollForTriggerFile.wsdl'
portType='Get_ptt'
operation='Get'
activation properties={TriggerDirectory=/uazsa/uazsaprd/integration/output, timestampOffset=25200000, portType=Get_ptt}
However, this setting appears to have no effect, as when the adapter polls for the file, it finds it, but does not process it. I have turned up logging on default.collaxa.cube.activation to DEBUG, and I see the following when it polls for the file:
<2010-01-17 12:18:40,342> <DEBUG> <default.collaxa.cube.activation> <FTP Adapter::Inbound> Opening sftp channel

What needs to be done to have the timestampOffset property in bpel.xml honored by the activation agent? Any help is greatly appreciated! I have opened up an SR with Oracle on this as well, but sometimes the forums prove to be a quicker path to problem resolution. :)
Thanks,
--Gary

Thanks for the reply, Anirudh.
Can you elaborate? The last part of section A.3.3. in the URL you posted is exactly what I did...I specified the "timestampOffset" property to the activation agent properties in bpel.xml. I specified the offset as the time difference (in milliseconds): 7 hrs = 7*60*60*1000 = 25200000. The value they provide in that example is puzzling: 2592000000 would be an offset of 720 hours! Maybe I'm misunderstanding something about this property?
Thanks,
--Gary

InterConnect - FTP adapter:Message queue empty

Hi,
I have installed oracle InterConnect 9.0.4.
The send point and receive end point are configured as separate folders
ota.send.endpoint=ftp://hcsdlx01/interexample/sender/
ota.receive.endpoint=ftp://hcsdlx01/interexample/receiver
We have placed an xml file at the sender location.
And trying to retrieve at reciever end point
But we are getting a message saying message queue empty in the oailog.txt
can anyone shed the possible sources of error.
Regards
Venkat

Finally succeeded in spotting error.
The FTP adapter.ini file was not configured properly
The point is that The send point and receive points should be as per the file system.
In our case the endpoint as we see in browser say:
ftp://example/endpoint
but in the file in Unix server was
<dir1>/<dir2>/endpoint
In the adapter.ini we changed to endpoint = <dir1>/<dir2>/endpoint.
It started working properly,
Thank u marcus
