Get file on demand with file adapter?

Hi all.
I need to get a file on demand (System A ask for a file to FTP server system) with FTP adapter. My problem is that FTP receiver adapter allows just uploading but not getting files. And sender file adapter is not valid for "on demand" scenario.
Thanks,
Gari.

Hey
as even u said ,on demand is not available for File,i guess starting from PI 7.1 they are gonna add some enhancements to File adapter to support this,but till then i dont think there is a direct way.
one way around which i think of is u might wanna write a Unix shell script,which will catch this demand and trigger the file to be placed in the specific directory.
u can have two scenario,the first scenario simply sends the demnad for file which will trigger the unix script(use the OS commands option in file adapter for this) and the second scenario will pick this file and send it
thanx

Xml file without namespace with file adapter

Hi,
Please can you assist. We will be receiving a XML file from an application without the namespace in the file.
As I tested thusfar PI requires a namespace as part of the xml file.
How would it be possible to you handle this with the file adapter.
Ex.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<applicatrion>
     <orders>
          <order>
               <action>I</action>
               <orderId>4261A92485</orderId>
          </order>
     </orders>
</application>
Regards
Willie Hugo

Hi Hugo,
Please see if this link could clear some doubts http://www.w3schools.com/XML/xml_namespaces.asp
We generally get an idoc xml in the below format without any issues:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ORDERS05>
- <IDOC BEGIN="1">
- <EDI_DC40 SEGMENT="1">
<TABNAM>EDI_DC40</TABNAM>

Zero byte files not transferred with FTP Adapter

All,
I am seeing that zero byte files are not being transferred using FTP Adapter (SFTP type). Is there a known bug around this? Please respond if anybody have seen this behavior and resolved this issue. I am using 10.1.3.3.0
Thanks,
Dipal

Thanks Marc,
I still have doubt if that is the case. When I tested the same from 10.1.3.3.1 windows platform and FTP being windows OS zero bytes files transferred OK. Do you think this is to do with OS or SOA version?
Thanks,
Dipal

Can't get past gray screen with file icon on it

When i turn on my computer the power light goes out but the gray screen stays on. After two or three minutes an icon of a file with a question mark appears. I cannot get past this screen. I have removed my battery and tried again. I have also tried the other processes for a computer that won't turn on. In my case the computer does turn on just never gets past this gray screen. Please someone help me

The question mark on the file tells you that your MacBook wants to start up but can't find a viable OS to start from. Can you start up from the DVD that came with your Mac? If so, go to Disk Utility and see if you can repair the internal hard drive. If you can't see the hard drive from within DU, your drive may have failed, and you may need to replace it. Good luck.

Cannot get HDR to work with files from Canon 40D

Hello,
I have read various tutorials and the forum and there seem to be a number of things that have to be just right to get the Automate Merge to HDR Pro to work.
I obtain the images on a tripod using a timer and auto expose a stop bracket. I understand white balance setting may be a problem...
But no matter what I do I get a merged file with very bight colors essentially all over.
I have trief JPEG and TIFF conversions from RAW.
Any ideas/checklist? THis is CS5, completely updated.
Thanks

How to Get Windows Dir info with file dates

I need to get the directory contents (file Name) and date of each file in the directory. If I ask file by file to get the date, it takes a very long time. I am checking about 28,000 files in about 4 directories.
Because the PC has so many files in each directory, accessing the file names / dates is slow. It takes about 30min. to get the information currently.
Does anyone know about a single VI that will get the dates and the names at the same time?
Thanks,
CH

I had this vi laying around (LabVIEW 6.02) for a project that never went anywhere. It's a simple search for file name and last modified time.
Warning: This is to give you an idea of how to solve the problem. It is not tested! It returns time values in LV seconds (since 1905, easy to convert). It has any number of warts (memory usage, listing llb contents, etc), but might be a start for you.
Good luck.

Opening file using JFileChooser with File filtering

ok guys I am trying set a file filter object to my file chooser it compile but i have a run time error, the error says:

Can some one please tell me whats wrong? and if possible how to fix it? Thank you guys

A couple of things might help:
It's a good idea to post the entire stack trace (even though it may appear a bit long). Specifically it helps to know which line in your code triggered the runtime error. You read the stack trace down from the top and the first line you find belonging to your code is a good place to begin looking hard at.
Another debugging technique is the SSCCE. The idea with this is that you come up with a really brief example illustrating your problem. (ie it compiles, runs and spits out the runtime error). It can be made brief by getting rid of anything extraneous to the problem. A bare button in a frame which when clicked sets up and displays the file chooser should be enough. I describe this as a debugging technique because in the course of constructing such things I often find I isolate - and therefore can see and fix - an error.
Anyway, sorry this is so general. Maybe someone will come along with a "missing semicolon in line 3"-type solution but, if not, it may be useful.

How to delete all files and folders (with files) in IsolatedStorage.

Hi awesome programmer:-) The code I have to clean up the local folder doesn't work properly so I won't even bother posting it here. I basically want to have a "master reset" option to remove all new created files and folder in the local folder.
Can you give me simple code to remove all files/folder so the app goes back to the state it was when the user installed it for the first time? Thanks in advance. ps I were able to delete a directory(-ies) with this method:
private async void DeleteDirectory(string directoryName)
try
var folder = await Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFolderAsync(directoryName);
if (folder != null)
await folder.DeleteAsync();
this.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(delegate()
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Folder < " + directoryName + " > deleted.";
catch (Exception ex)
this.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(delegate()
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Delete Directory << " + directoryName + " >> Error: " + ex.GetBaseException().Message.ToString();
It seems to work, I have not tested with all conditions though. Anyway let me put up the code so you can see I have been trying: This is to delete everything but not all files are deleted:
private void WipeAllData(bool bln)
try
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Removing files...";
if (bln)
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Removing folders...";
//Delete videos directory
DeleteDirectory("videos");
//Delete pictures directory
DeleteDirectory("pictures");
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Folders removed.";
//Delete the rest of the files
var iso = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
foreach (string name in iso.GetFileNames())
iso.DeleteFile(name);
BtnWipeAllData.Content = "Wipe All Data";
VideoCameraPowerValue = "on";
BtnVideoCameraPower.Content = "Video Camera: ON";
PhotoCameraPowerValue = "on";
BtnPhotoCameraPower.Content = "Photo Camera: ON";
txtUpdateFeed.Text = "Files removed successfully.";
catch (Exception ex)
MessageBox.Show("Wipe All Data Error:\n" + ex.Message.ToString());
Why isn't all files being deleted?

Hi Clint William Theron,
Based on your descriptions, I know that when you run the above code, it does not delete all the files, then have you checked that which kinds of files or in which folder the files can not been deleted?
Besides, if you want to let the app go back to the state it was when the user installed it for the first time, then an easy way is to uninstall and reinstall it.

Photoshop CS6 file permissions issue with file created with Photoshop CC

In our studio we have several capture stations and work stations all connected to one file server. An issue occurs when a user of CC creates a file and saves it to the server and a user of CS6 opens the file. The CS6 user cannot save the changes he just made to the file that was created in CC. The CS6 user can do a Save As with no issue. There is also NO problem if the file that was created in CC is transferred to a new drive using the Finder in Mac OS X.
Has anyone else had a similar issue or know of a solution?
Here is a screen cap of the error:

We have solved our issue.
After running Adobe updates on machine that uses CS6 and then re-starting that machine, our issue seems to have disappeared.
Hope this helps others.
Best of luck.

Operating System Command After File Processing in Sender File Adapter

Hello guys,
actually we have different interfaces, and the client to take all the files from only one directory, for example D:/DPI.
Unitl now we had one adapter for every file with the content conversion, so we didn't have problems with that. Now we have the problem that we sould maintain an order processing files.
We thougth that an idea could be to execute one file pointing to D:/DPI and at the Operating System Command put like: copy D:/DPI/file.txt D:/DPI/outbound/file.txt, so when file is executed, we move the next file to another directory where is pointing the adapter. Doing this we have an error on the adapter giving us the message: Could not process due to error: java.lang.NullPointerException
We are using a Windows.
There is anyway to do in our way, or there is a better solution to resolve this problem?
Any other idea to do this?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Xavi.

Helo Guys,
maybe I haven't explained well.
We have one directory with different files. We have one adapter for every file( we need for the content conversion ) using NFS and all the adapters are pointing to the same directory.
The problem is that if we have files A.txt, B.txt and C.txt we need to process in an order.
And the problem we see is that for every file we have one adapter, so for example if we process file A.txt with one adapter, when this part is finished, we want to process file B.txt with another adapter, and the same for the rest of the files.
So the idea we had is to create another directories, and when A.txt has finished move file B.txt to another directory.
However this way is not running, if we log on the PI machine and execute cmd, we can do a copy of one file from one directory to another, but when we put this sentence in the adapter in OS command if we see the adapter log we see an error executing the OS command, but we don't know what is the error, there is no more information.
There is any way to do this or maybe we have to manage in a different way?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Xavi.

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
Jay
