You can have pick activity and have separate ftp adapter for each folder, but you will be using the same jndi in all pick activity.
In that way you can have multiple ftp adapter but uses the same jndi by increasing the performance.
User will be configured to a home location, example as below.
say a ftp user "adminuser" is configured to a default folder c:/ftp_files
You can create multiple folders under the same folder like below.
c:/ftp_files/location_a
location_b
location_c
location_d
For each location have a separate ftp adatper, but all of them uses the same jndi while defining the path you have to change according to the above folder.
Let me know how this goes.

File adapter : Read poll setting is not picking the file

Hi all,
I created a soa project to read a file and load in to the database table.
File adapter to read file > Mediator > Database adapter
Is the above structure i created. While i created this my imagination is that file adapter has poll frequency to read the file i set the value to 10 seconds.
After i deploy my project i checked in enterprise manager that there is no option to test this , because test button will be disable due to file adapter and database adapter , so no inputs required here. But i feel this will automatically read the file for every 10 seconds. but its not happening.
any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sabari

You have to have cluster id property setting on composite level and deploy. This will restrict reading twice.
<activationAgents>
<activationAgent className="oracle.tip.adapter.fw.agent.jca.JCAActivationAgent" partnerLink="readCustomersFile">
<property name="portType">Read_ptt</property>
<property name="clusterGroupId">ProcessClusterID</property>
<property name="InvoiceInboundInput" type="LogicalDirectory">/path/</property>
<property name="InvoiceInboundArchive" type="LogicalArchiveDirectory">/path/</property>
<property name="rejectedMessageHandlers" >file:////path/</property>
</activationAgent>
</activationAgents>

FTP Adapter to poll multiple files (different formats)

Hi,
We have a requirement to poll and process multiple files from a given FTP location(either process all or reject all - reject if there is any failure in one of the files).
Using FTP Adapter's Get File operation(Schema Opaque), we are able to read three different file formats and can get the file name(Using header variable FileName).
And we are hoping to process the file contents based on the File Name that we get from the above step.
1) How do we convert the file contents from Opaque to specific Schema (ex: file1.csv, file2.csv and file3.csv with different formats)?
2) As the requirement is to process all the files at the same time, Can we use correlation in the poller process to route to single controller process(One instance of Controller process for all the files)?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks...

Thanks a lot for the quick answers.
I've used the Java embed to convert Base64 content to String. And using 'translateFromNative' extension, I could convert it to the desired XML content.
But I still have trouble in polling and processing all the files(file1.csv, file2.csv and file3.csv) at the same time using a single controller process.
My requirement is to process all the three files at the same time(for any failures I have to compensate any/all of inserted records).
I tried using Pick(with different OnMessage branches), but as they are polling the same location I could see only one OnMessage branch is getting fired resulting in multiple instances.
May be I didn't understand your suggestion correctly, could you please elaborate on the possibility of processing multiple files at the same time?
Thanks

Reciever File Adapter to create multiple target files

Hi All,
I have done the mapping to create multiple output messages . I would like each of the messages to be stored as a separate file in the target .
Below is the output message with 2 separate MT_CANCELOUT messages . However, both end up in one single xml file .
How do I configure the receiver file adapter to ouput 2 separate xml files ?
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>456</id>
<name>HEY</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>567</id>
<name>RAT</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
</ns0:Message1>
</ns0:Messages>

Hi,
Sorry to say you that but your post show the opposite, it shows you have only one target message !
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>______<<<<<<<
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>456</id>
<name>HEY</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>567</id>
<name>RAT</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
</ns0:Message1>______<<<<<<<
</ns0:Messages>
If you want two files, you should generate two Messages, and so to do that:
In MM, in your target (tab before "function"), you should have 1 source MT and in target MT, you should have two lines (even if you use the same target MT), after having changed the ouccurence 1->N.
do the same in your operation mapping: 1->N with two receiver service interface (even if it's the same)
because you should have something like:
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>456</id>
<name>HEY</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
</ns0:Message1> _____<<<<<<<
<ns0:Message2> _____<<<<<<<
<ns1:MT_CANCELOUT xmlns:ns1="urn://gm.com:VBVTEST">
<LineItem>
<id>567</id>
<name>RAT</name>
</LineItem>
</ns1:MT_CANCELOUT>
</ns0:Message2>
</ns0:Messages>

How to Read a file using File Adapter without polling

In My process I want to be able to read a specific file.
But without polling for files?
Can I use the File Adapter for this?
Thanks
JO

Yes you can.
Read about Synchronous File Reading Capability here download.oracle.com/otndocs/products/bpel/bpeltechadp.pdf

FTP/File adapter issue (polling one file at a time)

Hi,
I have come across an interesting scenario. I have a folder in which many files are placed at once (around 20+).
In my adapter I need such a logic that whenever file adapter polls the directory, it should only pick one file, wait for the specified time (in PollingFrequency interval or maybe some other way) and then poll the next file. Right now it polls all the files in one go.
Is there any property that I can use or any other logic that can help me achieve this?
Thanks.

Hi, You can use MaxRaiseSize property. Set its value to 1.

Sender File adapter stops polling

Hi All,
We have a strange issue. A sender File (NFS) communication channel which was working fine, suddenly stops polling.
The cache, is upto date. There are no errors in the channel monitoring. In fact the polling logs are being recorded in the RWB showing successful polling. But the channel does not pick up the file which is lying in the file location. Channel has been working fine till then.
Finally we had to create a new communication channel with the same configuration which picked up the file instantly.
Is this a known issue with File adapter and is there a solution to prevent this situation from happening.
Regards,
Sathya

In fact the polling logs are being recorded in the RWB showing successful polling. But the channel does not pick up the
file which is lying in the file location. Channel has been working fine till then
Did you checked if the adapter was locked out? Normally this is the reason....happens with FILE and JDBC....channel shows successfully processed but there is no message that is actually passed.
Needs to unlock the adapter from VA....SAP Note available mentioning this problem.

Abhishek.

Sender file adapter not polling the file

hi all,
i have configured a filexifile scenario....
but the file sender adapter is not polling the file at all....
i dont c any message either in RWB or in SXMB_MONI
i checked the adapter framework url at <i>http://<ximachine>;<port>/AdapterFramework</i>....and the status for the file adapter is green...
but the message it gives there is
<i>Sender Adapter v1014 for Party '', Service 'TASL_FILE_SENDER':
Configured at 03:07:24 2006-02-02
Up and running - no message processing until now
last poll interval started 04:01:24 2006-02-02
length 60,000 secs</i>
y is the sender adapter not polling the file..
i am using NFS as my File System....i gave the source directory as <i>d:/test_dir/</i>
is this way of specifying the source directory on a windows machine correct...
thanks
pavan

There is probably something wrong with the File Adapter. You will need to go to the RunTime Workbench >> Component Monitoring >> Display >> Click on the Adapter Engine >> More information will display and click on the button 'Adapter Monitoring' >> A new window will display and click on the arrow next to your adapter engine. This displays a list of adapters running on your system. Green light means good; Red, you have a configuration problem. Look at the error and try and resolve it.

I have tried to stop and start the channel but still no luck. This problem only happen for this particular communication channel others channel is working fine.
Please advise other solution before i need to restart the java engine since this in the production environment. The problem is some of the process was delayed because this issue. CC was delayed to pickup the file.
Thank You in advance.

Hi Abhistek,
Thank you for your correction. It was typo.
Which assumption is correct ?
1. All 3 instance running together in the same time ? or
2. Either 1 of the instance running once time manage by clustering setting.
Example :
15:01:00   ---> A
15:02:00 -
> A
15:03:00 -
> B
15:04:00   -
> B
Currently :
15:01:00   -
> A
15:01:00   -
> B (lock)
15:02:00 -
> A
15:02:00 -
> B (lock)
It seems all 3 instance lose control from clustering ?

Receiver file adapter to handle multiple structure

Hi all,
I have an issue writing file to the file server using receiver file adpater, I am using file content conversion and my file adapter.
My data type of the output file has 3 hierarchy.
header
Item
subitem
for every item ,multile subitem would occur, but i am getting error in the communication channel, the adapter takes the fixed field length of the "Item" and looks for the subitem while writing the file.
Let me know if any one has come across this issue.
thankx in advance,
Shree

Hello!
Is there really no possibility to convert a structure with a deeper hierarchy of 2?
I'm trying to convert a structure like this into a flat csv-file
<root>
<STRUCTURE1>
<value1>value</value1>
<value2>value</value2>
<value3>value</value3>
    <STRUCTURE2>
      <valuea>value</valuea>
      <valueb>value</valueb>
      <valuec>value</valuec>
        <STRUCTURE3>
          <valueZ>value</valueZ>
          <valueY>value</valueY>
          <valueX>value</valueX>
        </STRUCTURE3>
    </STRUCTURE2>
</STRUCTURE1>
</root>
I implemented that the values are printed in lines separated by ";". A new dataset is printed in a new line. I'm just missing my headerline. That won't work.
Any idea?

Hi,
Please change the File Encoding in the sender file adapter to <b>ISO-8859-1</b>.
Please look into this link,.

--> File Type.
<i>File Type
Specify the document data type.
○       Binary
○       Text
Under File Encoding, specify a code page.
The default setting is to use the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system. The file content is converted to the UTF-8 code page before it is sent.
Permitted values for the code page are the existing Charsets of the Java runtime. According to the SUN specification for the Java runtime, at least the following standard character sets must be supported:

File adapter dynamic configuration - Multiple filenames

Hi
Can anyone explaing the following.
We are using the sender file adaper to pick up files from an ftp location. The dynamic config is used to store the filename.
We are getting 1 PI message per file, but the dynamic config in SXMB_MONI is sometimes showing multiple filenames for one message.
This makes it impossible to get the correct filename and do something usefull with it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- 
- <SAP:DynamicConfiguration xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" name="FileName">xxxxxxxx1.PDF</SAP:Record>

FTP File adapter stops polling

We r using SAP PI 7.0
In File FTP adapter we had set 120 sec polling interval and timeout parameter 120 sec
I have seen 1083488 sap notes even , it shows this patch..
PI 7.0 SP12 ADAPTER FRAMEWORK CORE 7.0
Support Package 12, Patch Level 3 (SAPXIAFC12P_3.SCA)
Can anyone tell more about this error resolution...

Check whether the Adapter Engine is working fine(In RWB). check your coummunication channel in RWB channel monitoring
May be your channel is locked. See this 1083488

Problem with CSS files when placed in multiple locations.

Hi,
In our application we have a folder structure for the code files. Folder structure looks something like the one shown below:
ABC
---Scripts
---Stylesheets
DEF
Scripts
Stylesheets
Common
---Scripts
---Stylesheets
The problem is, if we create a CSS file and place it in its module specific folder (Eg: ABC) to which it belongs to and call the CSS on a page, then the styles are not getting applied to the page. But if we move the stylesheet to the Common folder, then page renders properly. In common folder, we already have a common CSS which is used across the project.
Facing similar problem with module specific and common js files.
We have to move all the module specific files to the module folders and all the common files to be placed in the Common folder.
MII Version: 11.5
Please help!
Regards,
Rajesh.

Rajesh,
Also note that, If your html is referencing to multiple css files then the last referenced CSS file style classes will override all the style class having same names in the previous css files.
for example,
say CSS1 has
.bodycolor
background-color:yellow;
.button
color:red;
h1
font-size:50pt;
and CSS2 has
.bodycolor
background-color:red;
.button
color:yellow;
And your HTML is,
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css1.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css2.css"/>
<title>CSS Test</title>
</head>
<body class="bodycolor">
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<input type="button" class="button" name="B1" id="B1" value=" Click " size="50">
</body>
</html>
In this case the classes "bodycolor" and "button" will be overridden by css2 file but h1 will be taken from css1
Hope this helps!!

Adarsh

File adapter read activity.

Hi,
is it possible to make the file adapter to look for specific files and ignore others in the same directory or do you have to write a web service for that? I want the file adapter to poll for certain files only.
Best Regards
Johan

Hi Johan,
In the Adapter Configuration Wizard its already providing the setting
You can found the setting as following
File Adapter > Operation Type (Read File) > Step 5 of 7 (File Filtering)
This step allows you to specify the file name pattern of both include and exclude files
Notice: I am using JDeveloper 10g
Wish helpful to you
Roy

I want my file adapter to poll multiple locations in soa 10g
