How to access a file in the network shared drive

Hi,
I have a pdf file in a netwoek share drive which opeates on windows platform. I want to access this file. the path to the file looks something like this
acddfd\sap\sapdir\myfile.pdf
I have tried gui_upload , gui_download , ws_upload and ws_download FM. But I am getting file_read error. Is therey any settings i need to made.
I can access the above path from windows menu start->run.
points guarnateed.
Thanks
sankar

GUI_UPLOAD / DOWNLOAD is the way to go. If you can access the directory/file that doesn't mean necessarily that the R/3 system can 'see' it as well. Your local frontend is connected to that share, but I would check with your basis that the application servers where R/3 is running do have access to that share as well.
Also does the R/3 user you are using have the same access right to the network as your Windows Network user?
We had a similar problem and eventually it was just an authorization issue with the R/3 user.
Hope that helps,
Michael

    Hello sirs,

  • Accessing a file over the network

    Hi ,
    I need to access a file for read/write operations. The file may exist or may not on another computer in my network. I use the File class for accessing the file. (File f = new File("\\192.23.23.23\file.txt");
    My problem is how can I know if I cannot access the file because I have network issues (e.g. The file exists but the network is down so its not accessible) or because the file really dont exist on the given address.
    Since File operations does not throw a specific exception Its hard to know the exact reason for access failure.
    Any suggestions ?
    Thanks.

    Any suggestions ?Here's a complete hack that only uses File that is completely coupled to Windows and the "\\hostname\dir\file..." syntax. This is not a universal solution and strongly urge you not to use it:
    public class NetworkFileTest {
       public static void main(String[] args) {
          File file = new File("\\\\myhostname\\tmp\\filethatexists");
          if ( file.exists() ) {
             System.out.println("File exists");
          } else {
             if ( hasPathToHost(file) ) {
                System.out.println("File doesn't exist");
             } else {
                System.out.println("No path to host");
       private static boolean hasPathToHost(File file) {
          if ( file.exists() ) {
             return true;
          } else {
             file = file.getParentFile();
             if ( file != null ) {
                return hasPathToHost(file);
             } else {
                return false;
    }This just recursively checks the parent to see if it exists. Once it gets up to the host "directory," it will return false if the network is down, or true otherwise.
    Remember that there's absolutely no way to check if a remote file exists if the network is down, short of carrier pigeons. This will just tell you if the file might exist.

  • How to access media files on home network?

    Hi there,
    How do I browse my home network files from the N900.
    On a windows computer, I am familiar with network neighbourhood or my network places and it's easy to find files on other computer.
    But with N900 and linux I don't know where to look.
    Anyone have any hints ?
    Thanks
    Fred

    Hi fhumbert
    As primarily Mac user I'm sure others will have better solution for you but you would need to install SSH Server on your N900:http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/openssh-server/
    On your Windows PC you would need to install WinSCP or FileZilla client to allow SFTP connection to your N900. You might find this link of use:http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41490&page=2

  • Network shared drive hang

    My office use a file server that host network shared drive (mapped on all workstation). The server OS is Windows Server 2008 SP 2, and all clients on Windows 7.
    For the past 6 months the network shared drive sometimes hang, but lately becoming more and more frequent.
    I cant really put my finger on it, as I checked on the server Event viewer, I can't really find anything related (or it could be I missed it).
    I notice many users work online with their office documents (excel, words), they open and save directly to the shared drive, is this also contribute to the shared drive hang?
    Help! thanks

    Hi,
    you should check using resourece monitor and perfmon whether you are running into resource depletion issues.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2008.08.pulse.aspx
    Office documents surely use resources, but a far more common culprit is storing outlook .pst and . ost files on a networkdrive. Aside for being not supported, it is a real fileserver killer. You will have events in system event log indicating issues in such
    case.
    Especially look for events regarding Srv, SMB, MrxSMB or the server service as all are closely related to fileshares.
    Also pretty common, is antivirus doing realtime scan both server as client side, possibly combined with some other filter drivers. (like described in:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822219
    there is a nice guide 'performance tuning for fileservers'  on Microsoft download.i recommend you take a look.
    MCP/MCSA/MCTS/MCITP
    ok, I will try to monitor those points you recommended. Thank you.

    There is another option if the Macbook will start up in Target Disk Mode.
    Restart the computer while holding down the T key. If you see the firewire symbol moving around on the screen you can connect this one to another one in TDM. You will need a suitable cable to connect the two Macs.

  • How to configure Mail software to store all related files on the network

    I know that Mail software stores all files in Library/Mail under my home directory. Since I have a MacBook Air (with lesser disk space than other Macs), I'm trying to see if I can get the Mail software to read/write files to a network folder instead of Library/Mail. I have done the same with iPhoto in that it looks at the library file from the network and not the local disk. Any ideas of this can be done for the Mail software? Or if this is advisable?

    you can do it but I'm not sure if it's advisable. You'd have to test and see how well it works. also, the network drive has to be mounted at all times when you are using Mail, otherwise Mail will crash.
    quit Mail. Mount the remote volume. copy the directory homedirectory/Library/Mail to the remote volume and trash the original.
    then open terminal and do the following.
    type
    ln -s
    do not press enter yet. press space and drag the copied directory from the remote volume to the terminal window. press space again and type
    ~/Library
    the result should look something like this
    ln -s /Volumes/remote-drivename/Mail ~/Library
    Press enter in terminal. This will create a symbolic link (it will look like an alias in Finder) to the new location of the Mail folder. Now when you start Mail it should behave normally. In case of problems, quit Mail, delete the symbolic link and move the folder back.

  • Accessing txt files in the App server from web application

    Hi All,
    We have a use case, where we need to access txt files from the ADF web application.
    We will display to the user the path of the file and whenever he/she clicks, it should be downloaded automatically to the users machine.
    Environments we need to develop: JDeveloper 10.1.3.4 and Oracle App Server 10.1.3.1
    And our server has credentials and only those who have access to the server can access the files.
    Point me or suggest me a good solution to this use case.
    Regards,
    Naga.

    Hi Joonas,
    i was able to download the files, thanks a lot for your guidance. i will mark your answer as correct.
    Can you let me know how to achieve the following usecase.
    1. there will be multiple text files in the server i.e., out of our web application context like in some folder
    2. And we need to give user a http link and if he clicks on the link that file should be downloaded automatically to his machine.
    and we are using oracle app server 10.1.3.4, please point me to some document or example.

  • I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I also had problem accessing my WD MyBookLive after upgrading to Maverick.
    To resolve the problem, I used  Connect To Server (Cmd K) to specify the IP address.
    Then I enter a user id and password I created in the MyBookLive.
    You can also verify that you have admin access to the MyBookLive using Safari or Chrome.
    Just enter the MyBookLive IP address as the URL.

  • How to access host files?

    how to access host files?

    Easy and not depends on your software version:
    press Shift+cmd+G while your finder window is open and active, you will get a new window with the field where you can write /etc/hosts
    Anyway to edit hosts file you should open it with the sudo command, this can be done in terminal window, not in Finder. Also easy and can be done next way:
    press Shift+Cmd+U while Finder window is open and active, then choose Terminal.app, and after it opens enter sudo nano /etc/hosts. You will be asked for password - this is the password you enter then you installing new application. You should know few commands to edit your hosts file:
    Previoius page/Next Page of the file - Ctrl+Y/Ctrl+V
    Add record - Input the text you need on the last free line of the file and then press Ctrl+O
    Delete record - put cursor on the line you want to delete and press Ctrl+K
    Undo - Ctrl+U
    Exit - Ctrl+X
    After edit your hosts file you should update DNS records - in terminal window enter the command dscacheutil -flushcache
    But if you really don't know what are you doing, my advice is do not touch your hosts file, ask for professional to do his job. Just like I'm doing usually. )))
