We are having same issue with the FTPS in our SAP PI systems.
21 is the default port for FTP(S).....but you should check with the basis/ network team which port is enabled for FTPS.
Also the ip-address of the target server should be the same as used when uploading the cert

FTP Error - 550 Unexpected reply code

Hi Guys,
I am encountering the following error in my QA Environment.
Error Attempt to process file failed with com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 Unexpected reply codeThe filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
In my receiver FTP channel, I have set the 'Temporary File Name Scheme' as '*.tmp'. I have the same setup in my Dev environment but no issue is encountered.
When I tried to removed it, the error is not occurring.
What do you think could be the issue?
Also, what should be the File Type if the temp file name scheme is *.tmp? Binary or Text?
Message Flow: IDOC -> File
Thanks and Regards,
Neil

A file name should not contain "* "
when you define the tempfilename scheme as "*.tmp" , PI is trying to create the file as *<timestamp>.tmp to place the file on FTP which is not allowed.
refer : Configuring the Receiver File Adapter - Configuring the File/FTP Adapter in Integration Directory/PCK - SAP Library
>>>Also, what should be the File Type if the temp file name scheme is *.tmp? Binary or Text?
It can be anything.

File.ftp.FTPEx: 501 Unexpected reply codeUnknown extension in database file name

Hi Folks,
I am trying to place file in the iSeries library folder and for this I am using a receiver file adapter with the following config, FYI, I am not using any FCC
Target Directory : /QSYS.LIB/XXXXX.LIB/
File Name Scheme : FILENAME.FILE
As I am doing this config for the first time I am using the following SCN discussion as my reference,
File FTP to AS400 Library folder | SCN
but i am still getting the error message at the receiver channel as below
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server 'XXXXXX:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 501 Unexpected reply codeUnknown extension in database file name.'. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
Please let me know if anyone has anymore suggestions.

Hi Kalyan,
The File Name extension that you configured is incorrect I think. Can you try to change the extension to .txt and try once.
File Name Scheme : FILENAME.FILE
Thanks,
Satish.

Receiver File adapter - FTPEx: 550 Permission denied

Hi all,
We are getting the following error from a File receiver comm. channel:
Delivery of the message to the application using connection AFW failed, due to: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 Permission denied to "inbound"..
The FTP connection is anonymous so anyone (within our network) can login on this server, folder rights are also set to all i.e. anonymous user can create, read, delete files on the target folder.
I have tested to the target folder using IE browser, I was able to logon the server, read, create and delete files.
Has anyone of you an idea why the adapter engine still cannot create a file?
Regards,
Roberto

Hi there,
As explained before; we have tested the same FTP connection (using the same anonymous account) via a DOS session and also via IE (from the XI server), both tests were successful and we were able to create/delete files without any problem.
So again, the problem is only with the File/FTP adapter which for some unexplained reason cannot get access to this folder.
Are there any special (not mentioned in the SAP documentation?) prerequisites to establish a FTP connection using the file adapter?
Any help is highly appreciated!
Thanks, Roberto
BTW; we are on SP14 and the XI server runs under a Windows Server machine.

Receiver File Adapter - FTPEx: 550 Access denied

Hi Experts,
In my receiver file adapter scenario I'm getting 550 Access denied in RWB.
I am a little confused here because I could access the FTP client from my desktop using the same User and Password informed in the Receiver CC. I also could drag and drop a file there.
Here you have Detail Display in RWB, it seems that at least the user is working fine for PI also:
Success: Connecting to FTP server "<FTP IP>"
Success: Write to FTP server "192.168.10.85", directory "\Transportadoras\10326750000101\", file "Nfe_teste.xml"

Hi Daneial,
This is an issue due to any firewall or proxy between your Xi system and the FTP.In this case the direct logon
works with same user but when XI tries to create file at runtime you get this error due to network issues.
To resolve this contact your Basis/Network guys and
1. Set the permissions to FTP User you are using as 777 rights(full access to read , write and delete)
2.If you have access to PI server, try to telnet /connect to ftp using command prompt (open ftp .....) the FTP server form there, you should see the same error there , inform this to your network guys.
3.Clear all the files places already in the ftp (take backup) and test afresh after permissions are set by basis team.

Could not process due to error: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550

Hi Experts,
We have many File to EDI scenarios wherein XI System pick up the XML and sent to customers via EDI. Recently we faced a problem so created a Back-up System (Production copy) and tested successfully. After sometime the messages were routed to this back-up system and when we notice it and then stopped the back-up system. All the messages that were routed to back-up system, we try to send the same messages from the actually Production system to our customers. Now the problem is XI system (Production system) is unable to pick these files and I check the communication monitoring and encountered the below error message.
Could not process due to error: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550.550
Can anyone let me know how to fix the issue or what needs to be done?
Your help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Faisal

Hi,
It seems to be problem with permission of files. Please ask your basis to do following:
1. Set the permissions to FTP User you are using as 777 rights(full access to read , write and delete)
2.If you have access to PI server, try to telnet /connect to ftp using command prompt (open ftp .....) the FTP server form there, you should see the same error there , inform this to your network guys.
3.Clear all the files places already in the ftp (take backup) and test afresh after permissions are set by basis team.

Com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550

Hi,
I have the below error in my sender file channel. I also read the following thread
FTP Error
Error:
An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '10.12.12.101:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 C:Inetpubftproot: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. '. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
The above thread suggests me to change the setting in the IIS. Should do that settings in the PI server or the source FTP server.
Also does anybody have any other solution to this problem.
Rgds,

HI,
If you're using an FTP server you need to know the path to the file on the FTP.
To do this I suggest to connect to the FTP using Internet Explorer and navigating the FTP folders until reaching the right one.
Then on the url bar you should got something like this: "ftp://server:21/path/to/file/". Use "/path/to/file" as value for the file adapter configuration.
Please refer below blogs:

FTPEx: 550 : Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

I am working on idoc to file scenario and PI 7.1. The idoc is split into 3 files.
In sxmb_moni , the message is successful , but in rwb( Message montoring) i am geeting the fllowing Error message.

and this error message is not displayed for all the target files , some files are getting created succesfully.
After some times , the file in error status , gets created automatically.
What may be the reason.?
Thanks in advance .
Best Regards,

There seem to be already some files in your Target Directory with the same name as your new files (which the CC is trying to place) and the CC is not able to overwrite the existing files and hence the error...check this.
Check: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/EN/44/69d7cfa4b633eae10000000a1553f6/content.htm
14. Select the File Construction Mode.
u25CB Create
The file is created. The document received last is saved in each case.
If you want the created file to be overwritten, select Overwrite Existing File. If you do not set the indicator, processing is stopped until the created file is processed.
You can only set the indicator if you select Use Temporary File under Put File below.

Error FTPEx: 550 CWD failed

Hi guys, i have a weird problem.
We write in one ftp-directory where three messages should be posted.
Two are posted, one won't!
We get following error:
com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 CWD failed.
"/SAP_Output/T_Output": directory not found.
please note that at the end of the path a slash "/" is missing, even though it is configured in CC.
As mentioned two other CCs post the files in the directory, one don't.
I have no clue what to do?!
The problem occured after we transported the Scenario from QA to PROD.
It's a Windows FTP-Server!

Got the solution - was a password error!

Failed to delete file after processing FTP

Failed to delete file after processing. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.ai i.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 Unexpected reply code *.txt: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. '. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
I got this error many times for the same interface. Not sure what is the reason for this.
Searched on internet go comments that this is because of FTP version!
Please help

It is the "Msecs to Wait Before Modification Check" in the Sender Adapter that ensures this. It works like this: PI starts processing, finds a file, then waits the number of miliseconds specified and checks the file again to see if it has changed over the waiting period. If so, then it waits again to make sure the file is written completely. Only if no changes took place over the waiting period, it starts processing the file.
And the fact that your file was successfully processed at retry only confirms that it might have been still written to by the sender system. You can try comparing file's creation timestamp (in OS level) with its processing start time in PI - this could prove me right.

Sender CC error....Please help

Hi,
I am getting the following error in my sender cc. It used to work until yesterday. But, for some reason now I am facing this error from today. lease help.
Below is the error.
An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server 'IP/Host name:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 Unexpected reply code/dev/testfolder/sender: The system cannot find the path specified. '. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
What does this mean? I am able to login thru FTP site and command prompt.
Thanks,
Nani

Hi Nani,
Did you try from command prompt
Telnet IPaddress portnumber
This will show whether the target system is up and ready to accept files.
In case you get negative response please inform target system admin to take care.
I feel this is a problem of target system.
