Image provided in server cache does not appear in Excel download

Hello WD Experts!
I have a Web Dynpo (ABAP) ALV table with material master data. One column contains the image of the product or a "sorry, no picture" image, if no specific material image exists.
The images are not available as MIME objects, hence I load the images from an external source and push them into the server cache using the method cl_http_server=>server_cache_upload( ... ). The lifetime for the cache is defined with 600. The "sorry, no picture" -image is a MIME object.
All works fine... except for the download to Excel. Only the "sorry, no picture" -image appears. The others gets replaced by a placeholder icon which looks similar to those frequently seen in emails or slow web pages.
Why don't the cached images get downloaded to Excel???
Best Regards

I would imagine this is a limitation of the Excel converter functionality within the ALV. It is probably designed to only download images that come directly from the MIME repository.  The logic between the two approaches would be very different.  Images in the MIME repository can be read from the database using the MIME APIs. To read the images from the Server Cache, the ABAP program would have to make an HTTP request to the cache (using CL_HTTP_CLIENT).  I'm guessing the convert logic simply doesn't do this.
The other option is - is your lifetime high enough? 600 seconds seems like it would be long enough - at least for a test - there is no guarentee that in a real application the user might not display the data for more than 10 minutes before downloading. Probably not your problem, but something you might still consider if you get this working.
My only suggestion is that you would have to create your own excel conversion instead of using the ALV one.

    Has to be programmed manually because WD ALV does not read from server cache

  • "Hyperion" menu item does not appear in Excel after SmartView Installation

    Hi to all! When I first installed SmartView, everything was ok - "Hyperion" menu item appeared in Excel and I successfully established connection to Planning and worked with data in Excel. Then, once upon a time I happened to select all data through Ctrl+A in the data form open in Excel and tried to copy it to another worksheet in the same workbook, Excel threw out a message about some serious error and informed me that the Hyperion Add-on would be removed. So it was removed in fact. When I was reinstalling Smart-View, all the installation went smoothly but the "Hyperion" menu item did not appear in Excel again. I tried to reinstall both Excel and SmartView and rebooted the system several times but the Hyperion menu item still does not appear in Excel. Can anyone hint me on how to solve this? Thanks a lot in advance!

    Hi, John! Thanks a lot! Your link led me to the thread in which the last post had the link Re: Smart View errors in Excel?! containing the "low-tech" 's instructions. It was these instructions that pulled me from underwater! Thank you so much and to that guy too! :)

  • Lightroom 5 does not appear in my Download Assistant

    Hi.
    I have LR 4 and my MacBook Pro runs on OSX 10.8.5
    I've just joined CC as part of the PS CC and LR 5 deal. I had PS CC installed anyhow as a trial and it's working fine. However, Lightroom 5 is not listed in the Download Assistant anywhere as an option. I cannot see how to resolve this.
    Help! Thanks.

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/lightroom-5-ddl-comparison-vs-lr4.html
    and activate with your adobeID.
    if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).  so, your browser must also accept cookies to enable these downloads.

  • When I open my video inspector, the box for image stabilization and shutter roll does not appear.  How do I get it to appear?

    When I open my video inspector and I click the Video button, no options for stabilization and rolling shutter appear.  Is there any way that I can get them to appear, so that I might use these tools?

    Tom,
    Many thanks for replying so soon.  Actually, I think I've solved my little conundrum.  I was selecting all of my clips in the timeline with the hope of running both functions.  I found that when I only selected one clip at a time, that the two options would appear and that I could select them.
    Again, Tom, thank you.
    Cheers,

  • When I download a file, particularly PDF's, the file does not appear in the download box. Why?

    The file will appear in the location that I set for downloads, but this is not convenient to constantly return to the computers main window and extract the file.

    Hi Stephen,
    What version of MS Office are you using?
    Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
    Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other". The "Add Webmail Account" dialog presents. You'll fill out the dialog's fields with Outlook.com settings. (don't forget the "Advance Settings" button)
    From a look-see on the web it appears that the following are the needed settings. BUT, you'll be wanting to validate.
    The Outlook.com SMTP server settings for sending outgoing messages from an email program on desktop, cell phone or mobile device are:
    • Outlook.com SMTP server address: smtp.live.com
    • Outlook.com SMTP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
    • Outlook.com SMTP password': Your Outlook.com password
    • Outlook.com SMTP port: 587
    • Outlook.com SMTP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
    For incoming messages from an Outlook.com account to an email program using POP, use the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 server settings.
    The Outlook.com POP server settings for downloading new incoming messages to email program, cell phone or mobile device are:
    • Outlook.com POP server address: pop3.live.com
    • Outlook.com POP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
    • Outlook.com POP password: Your Outlook.com password
    • Outlook.com POP port: 995

  • Camera icon does not appear when use Google Image Search

    Hello,
    I am working on a much older macbook pro (2006) running OS 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10.
    Just the other day I reinstalled Safari, as some things appeared to not be working properly. However, there was nothing wrong with Google. SInce then, when I try to search by Google Image, the camera icon does not appear in the search bar. I have tried reinstalling Safari twice, but nothing changes. I have checked in Firefox and it shows up as expected.
    I have cleared the cache, deleted cookies, and cleared browser history. None of these steps have produced any changes.
    Also, I seem to have reverted to some earlier version of Google, since the search tools now appear on the top left, as show below.
    Can you please assist me in sorting this out so that Safari and Google perform as expected.
    Thank you very much.

    I posted that work around on the google forums and it actually came from the Apple forums from users 'Society Girl' and refined by 'spiza' from this thread.
    Google Reverted to Old Layout
    I called a friend at a tech magazine and he *cough* unofficially* cough* said via contacts it was a very deliberate move by Google... nothing to do with their upgrades or a hack coincidentally not working as a by product with old browsers.
    oh boy...
    'Google flushes out users of old browsers by serving up CLUNKY, AGED version of search'
    'Ad giant: Yeah, we did that deliberately'
    In a separate thread, as spotted by a Reg reader who brought this sorry affair to our attention, user MadFranko008 was able to show that even modern browsers - including the current version of Chrome - were apparently spitting out glitches on Apple Mac computers.
    Google then appeared to have resolved the search "bug" spotted in Chrome.

    and on the BBC website...
    Google 'discourages' users of old browsers
    Google has started showing old versions of its search page to people using out-of-date versions of some web browsers.
    The problem was most pronounced among those using variants of Safari 5.1 and Opera 12.
    A Google message posted to the forum said the change was made to "encourage" people to upgrade their browser

  • Image does not appear in applet.

    I am reading the book, Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days.
    There is an example in Ch.11 that shows how to load an image into the applet.
    I have tried to use the code provided as is along with an image as defined in the code. I have also uploaded the html, class and image to a folder on the web. Unfortunately, the image does not appear in the applet. The image does have an image that I created using ms paint.
    Here is the code I am currently using from the book:
    import java.awt.Graphics;
    import java.awt.Image;
    public class LadyBug2 extends java.applet.Applet {
         Image bugimg;
         public void init() {
             bugimg = getImage(getCodeBase(),
                 "ladybug.gif");
         public void paint(Graphics g) {
             int iwidth = bugimg.getWidth(this);
             int iheight = bugimg.getHeight(this);
             int xpos = 10;
             // 25 %
            g.drawImage(bugimg, xpos, 10,
                iwidth / 4, iheight / 4, this);
             // 50 %
             xpos += (iwidth / 4) + 10;
             g.drawImage(bugimg, xpos , 10,
                  iwidth / 2, iheight / 2, this);
             // 100%
             xpos += (iwidth / 2) + 10;
             g.drawImage(bugimg, xpos, 10, this);
             // 150% x, 25% y
             g.drawImage(bugimg, 10, iheight + 30,
                 (int)(iwidth * 1.5), iheight / 4, this);
    }I tried placing the image in an images folder and I also tried changing the code to getImage(getDocumentBase(), "ladybug.gif")
    as well as tried getImage(getCodeBase(), "ladybug.gif") in order to try and grab the image from the same directory as the class file and the html file.
    The image file's name is: ladybug.gif
    The code in the html file:
    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Lady Bug</TITLE>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <P>
    <APPLET CODE="LadyBug2.class" WIDTH=1024 HEIGHT=500>
    </APPLET>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    I have gotten previous applet examples from the book to work. One of them did have an error in the author's code which I fortunately was able to overcome. This time, I am afraid, the error eludes me.
    Thanks in advance.
    I do see that there is no start/stop/run in this version, but I believe this should still work because of the init. I am guessing that maybe the problem lies somewhere in there.

    According to the javadoc:
    getImage
    public Image getImage(URL url,
    String name)Returns an Image object that can then be painted on the screen. The url argument must specify an absolute URL. The name argument is a specifier that is relative to the url argument.
    This method always returns immediately, whether or not the image exists. When this applet attempts to draw the image on the screen, the data will be loaded. The graphics primitives that draw the image will incrementally paint on the screen.
    Parameters:
    url - an absolute URL giving the base location of the image.
    name - the location of the image, relative to the url argument.
    Returns:
    the image at the specified URL.
    I am confused as to how to use the name after the url.
    Should it read something like:
    bugimg = getImage("http://g.jtrusty.com/JavaApplet/", "LadyBug.gif");
    EDIT: I still get the same error, cannot find symbol at getImage.

  • LR 4 - image does not appear in Preview and will not print`

    The selected image appears on the main/center panel but not in the preview screen.  Printing results in a white sheet of paper with no image at all.  The image has been updated to LR 4 - but made no difference.  I've served help and the forums (where i saw mention of similar problems, but no comments or guidance on the problem).  What am I doing wrong?

    The problem began with the installation of LR4. I print directly from LR4 to my HPZ3100. I routinely select "print preview" in the print dialogue box. Now the first print I see the preview and then it prints. If I select a second print job and use the "print preview" the print preview screen comes up blank and never loads. If I try to delete the print job, it just never responds (resolves) so I have to turn off the computer and the printer and restart to clear the print job. if I don't use the print preview, it prints just fine (except that I'm not able to check what's about to be printed). Thanks for any thoughts you have on this.

    Bill, if this is only happening some of the time, then we are probably looking at a resource issue. Any pattern in when things won't print? e.g. Certain file type won't but others will? Or is it more of a timing/order thing? e.g. First file prints fine, second does not? VStromee, do no files print for you? Or is it like Bill and sometimes the print and other times they do not? Did you install any new software recently or have any updates to the OS or any application that has printing capabilities?

    person contact image does not appear while on a call,why?

    when you say "Re-upload the image", do you mean reinsert it, or re-link it?
    Neither.
    Re-upload it to the web server from your local hard drive. In DW, click on the image file in the Files panel then click the Up arrow to Put the image to the server.
    If that does not work, do as Nancy suggests and re-create the image in your image editor then re-upload.
