Getting remote file using FTP Server Issue in OSB

Hi Guys,
I have configured a FTP server on my local system and I created a proxy service to get file from ftp location to some other location but it fails . I used ftp protocol for getting file
and my ftp location is D:\host\ftp and it has another folder called osb . I used ftp as protocol and EndPointURI is ftp://localhost/. It fails to get files and shows error message like
com.bea.wli.sb.transports.TransportException: <user:osb>Unable to list files for
directory: .
at com.bea.wli.sb.transports.ftp.connector.FTPWorkPartitioningAgent.exec
ute(FTPWorkPartitioningAgent.java:218)
In case of Business Service, writing a file to ftp location (i.e ftp://localhost/ means D:\host\ftp\osb) working.
I used service account for both proxy,BS to connect . osb is username and same as password.
Can Any one please suggest me How to solve this issue?
Thanks,
Srinivas.

Hi Vijay Thank you,
Can we do the pooling directly using FTP protocol like JMS protocol in OSB with out using FTP JCA Adapter.I did in such a way but it fails. For pooling files the mentioned endpoint uri is as ftp://localhost/ and it actual path is D:\host\ftp and ftp has another folder called osb here i have to get the files from this osb Can any one suggest me if there is any problem with the ftp protocol end point.
Thank You,
Srinivas.

  • How to get file from FTP Server using File Control

    Hi,
    Any one did getting file from FTP Server?
    Please let me know any one help me.
    I would need to get file from FTP Server.
    Thanks,
    Madhu

    Yes I have done that. But In FTP Server I cannt read file, because no previliges. Only I need to copy file from FTP Server to local server then only I can read that file.
    I tried all options using FileConrol(getFiles(),read()).
    getFiles() - It wont copy the file, it give information about file.
    read() - I dont have previliges to read the file.
    Please tell me any other procedure would be there for getting file from FTPServer.
    Thanks,
    Madhu

  • Empty files are getting created at receiver FTP server

    Hi Experts,
    I have an Idoc to File scenario where I am sending an XML file to receiver FTP server.
    Scenario is working fine but sometimes an empty file is getting generated at receiver FTP server.
    I have already selected ignore empty file at receiver channel so issue is not within PI system configuration.
    When I checked the message log I can see that almost all the files are getting created successfully without any issues, but
    for some files/messages I can see that there are below error logs.
    "Transmitting the message to endpoint <local> using connection IDoc_AAE_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections"
    "Exception caught by adapter framework: Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections."
    And after there is again success message log in the same message and it creating a file successfully during that time stamp.
    but the third party is sometime receiving empty file which I am not able to find in any trace or log (my file name is SD_timestamp.xml).
    Can you please let me know what is the solution and what adjustments FTP server need to do in order to resolve this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Rahul Kulkarni

    The error you are getting that says "Could not get FTP connection from connection pool (1 connections) within 5,000 milliseconds; increase the number of available connections" has probably nothing to do with the empty files problem.
    I second Hareesh Gampa that you first should try "temporary file creation". You might also need to tell the FTP owner that he should only pick up files with that are written completely and that do comply with a negotiated file name schema. The temp file should have another schema of course then. He should not pick up just every file that is written. See here for details

  • Urzent: Delete files in FTP server using FTP receiver adapter

    Hi Experts,
    We are doing 2 asyncronous scenarios. frst scenario should delete existing file and place the request file. Second scenario should pick(delete) response file and delete request file it placed also.
    Scenario 1 : File(NFS) to FTP  (Asynchronous)
    Scenario 2: FTP to NFS  (Asynchronous)
    Scenario 1: (Receiver FTP Adapter )
    step-1: PI has to delete all existing files in FTP server
    step-2: PI has to place Request file in FTP
    Scenario-2: ( Sender FTP Adapter)
    step-1: PI has to Delete request file i FTP server
    Step-2: PI has to pick and delete response file in FTP server
    Doubts:
    How can we do above steps in PI
    Thanks,
    Murali

    Hi Krish - For scenario -1 You have to make use of the OS commands to delete the files on FTP server before placing the request file.
              -> write some script which wil connect to the FTP server and delete the files.
              -> call that script from the file adapter "using execute OS commands" option
    For scenario -2 :
    pick both the files(request and response) and set the processing mode to delete..
    during the receiver determination, process only request files(based on filename/content)

  • Not able to send file Using FTP in SSIS 2005

    I am using SSIS 2005
    I am trying to send file to ftp server using FTP task in SSIS but i am getting following error.
    Error Message-:An error occurred in the requested FTP operation.
    Detailed Description-:550 /FileName.txt: Access is denied.
    RemotefilePath is /
    I need a advice.
    Thanks in advance.

    I got this error recently from the FTP task in SSIS:
         Unable to send files using "FTP".
    I had everything correct, by the book.  I was trying to send a file, but I got the same error when trying to receive a file. 
    I already verified that I could send the file via command line FTP, so the FTP was not "secure FTP" (which wouldda required FileZilla or WinSCP or something similar) and my credentials were fine. 
    But I still got the above error.  Heck, I was beginning to thing that the FTP task in SQL Server 2008 was broken and just couldn't send files.
    Well, this issue is now resolved.  The problem was in the
    destination folder.  I was assuming that the root folder for my FTP account held the files. 
    So I entered the destination folder as this:   
    /data_in/
    But... the FTP task sees the root folder as one up from that. 
    So I had to use my account name in the path... meaning I had to change the destination folder to this:    
        /myaccountname/data_in/
        (where "myaccountname" was my login to the FTP site.)
    I hope this post helps someone else.

  • No Data in PDF file in FTP server

    Hi All,
    I am trying to place a PDF file in FTP server.
    Used
    CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert spool to PDF

    FTP_R3_TO_SERVER to transfer data to FTP.
    I am able to see PDF file in FTP and no of pages matches with that of R/3 but there is no data in PDF file.

    To get pdf file , you need to set the itcpo-tdgetotf = 'X' and need to pass in the exporting parameter (options in open_form  function module ).Then in close_form function module take all the data of otfdata table into an internal table . Then use SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_OTF_PDF function module to convert it to pdf.
    I will show with an  example.
    tables itcpo.

    Hi, if you really retrieve an excel file, you can not see the data in ABAP. You may see them in Excel. For this you may use
    CALL METHOD document->open_document_from_table
    of the interface i_oi_document_proxy for OLE objects. You can access the data with reference to the interface i_oi_spreadsheet.
    Please check [Desktop Office Integration (BC-CI)|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCCIOFFI/BCCIOFFI.pdf] for details.
    But, who knows, perhaps you want "And Now For Something Completely Different".

  • Reading a file from ftp server

    Hi
    I am able to put file on ftp server using ftp adapter.But same settings are not working while polling file on ftp.
    Do i need to do some settings for get operation??

    Hi,
    Check the file permissions and for testing give all read/write/execute permissions to the file to be read from FTP. Also check the file modification date of the file.
    Check for the logs at 2 places for any error messages:
    - SOA server diagnostics logs
    - FTP server logs
    You can also enable the FINEST level of Adapter logs for adapters and see for the detailed errors in the diagnostic logs.
