Invalid Adapter Name

Hello Experts,
I found some posts on this but they did not serve the purpose.
We had a newly installed ECC5.0 system with XI,
We uploaded JDBC drivers through SDM tool.
We are trying for a IDOC2JDBC Scenario and it is the first
In the communication channel definition, when we select adapter other than IDOC,HTTP
there is no entry in the Adapter engine, which is mandatory.
once the sceanrio definition is completed, the IDOC status in SXMB_MONI says "ADAPTER_NAME_INVALID" ...(JDBC)
Some body crossed this problem ..already, help me ...
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Sai.k.k

Hi Michal,
1)
<u>Problem</u> : The problem entry could not found for Adapter engine=integration server in communication channel definition is solved.
<u>solution</u> :
a) At first we could not get any adapters list, for which our guys uploaded some files for "JPR" with which the JPR turned green from red.
b) Later we came to know that the technical system created for JPR is not mentioned as "integration server" once we changed, it worked fine.
Thus with (a) we could get adapters list & with (b) we could get entry in adapter engine field.
we uploaded sql drivers (3 .jar) files packed as .sda through SDM tool then it said drivers already exist with same or version higher than this,  but when we run the scenario it says SAPClassNotFoundException:
after several attempts, we used ODBCDriver (Created DSN at XI host) and it is sucessful.
can you tell me where exactly the problem with the SQL drivers uploaded ...
Thanks & Regards,
Sai.k.k

  • Invalid adapter name"c/CVI Flexible Prototype Adapter" Error code:-17336.

    Hi,
    After replacing the mainboard of the test computer and activating Windows, test station shows "Invalid adapter name"c/CVI Flexible Prototype Adapter" . Invalid adapter name. Error code:-17336"  when we try to run TestStand Sequence(4.2.1.83). Could you help to guide. Thanks!

    Hi Daniel, 
    I would agree with Doug regarding checking the licensing in the License Manager, deactivating if it is activated and then reactivating. It is possible that the MAC address changed when you switched out the motherboard and this would cause the computer ID to change and render your current licensing invalid. If this does not solve the situation, could you specify when this error occurs? Is this when you open Teststand or when you try to run a particular program? Do you have a base or debug deployment Teststand license? 
    I look forward to your response and hope that you have a great day!

    OK, I figured it out myself. :)
    Turns out when I define the queue name in the AQ Adapter definition, I was specifying "<Default Schema>" as the schema name. When I changed this to my actual schema name (eg: "SCOTT"), it worked. Nice little bug there!
    The reason it broke with the example program is because I was changing the schema name before I deployed it. As I didn't have a SCOTT schema.
    So the moral of the story here is, don't use "<Default Schema>"!
    I was running on 10.1.2.0.0 [build #1787 ]. In case anyone wants to fix this.

  • INSERT INTO with SELECT invalid column name error

    I have a problem where I wish to update a table with only records that have changed or insert into a table with only new records. The Source table is queried using OPENQUERY as we have no staging db for this.
    I have the following code (adapted from a working example):
    INSERT INTO dbo.Contact
    SELECT contactID, lastUpdatedDateTime
    FROM
    MERGE INTO dbo.Contact AS DT
    USING (SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(LINKED_SERVER,'SELECT contactID, lastUpdatedDateTime FROM Contact')) AS DS
    ON (DT.ContactID = DS.ContactID)
    WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
    INSERT VALUES (DS.contactID, DS.lastUpdatedDateTime)
    WHEN MATCHED AND (DT.lastUpdatedDateTime <> DS.lastUpdatedDateTime) THEN
    UPDATE SET DT.contactID = DS.contactID, DT.lastUpdatedDateTime = DS.lastUpdatedDateTime
    OUTPUT $Action Action_Out
    AS MERGE_OUT
    WHERE MERGE_OUT.Action_Out = 'UPDATE';
    GO
    When I run this query I am getting the following errors referring to the columns in the SELECT:
    Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
    Invalid column name 'contactID'.
    Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
    Invalid column name 'lastUpdatedDateTime'.
    Am I missing something obvious as I can't quite work out why? The Target and source definitely exist with the specified columns present in both...

    Hello,
    The issue is because you are not outputting those values from the inner merge statement. All you are currently outputting is the action, so the error is correct as those columns do not exist.
    Change your output portion to be:
    OUTPUT inserted.contactID, inserted.lastUpdatedDateTime, $Action Action_Out
    Then it should work.

  • Sybase JDBC driver & Invalid column name error

    I submitted a note a year ago concerning JDBC-ODBC bridge and SQL Server db. Same Invalid column name error. The resolution was a bug in the XSU code.
    This time the error is with a jconnect5 JDBC driver from Sybase to a Sybase ASA db. ASA is Adaptive Server Anywhere.
    <ERROR xsql-timing="140">oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: S0022: Invalid column name 'name'.</ERROR>
    However if I use a Sybase JDBC driver from INet Software of Germany, I get the desired result of my query.
    Below are sample XSQLConfig.xml definitions.
    INet Software Sybase JDBC driver definition:
    - <connection name="deasa">
    <username>dba</username>
    <password>sql</password>
    <dburl>jdbc:inetsyb:LEMKAU:2638?database=asademo</dburl>
    <driver>com.inet.syb.SybDriver</driver>
    <autocommit>true</autocommit>
    </connection>
    Sybase jconnect5 Sybase JDBC driver definition:
    - <connection name="asa">
    <username>dba</username>
    <password>sql</password>
    <dburl>jdbc:sybase:Tds:lemkau:2638?ServiceName=asademo</dburl>
    <driver>com.sybase.jdbc.SybDriver</driver>
    <autocommit>true</autocommit>
    </connection>
    I believe the bug has to do with the numeric codes that the drivers use to determine data types are not properly interpreted.
    See XML General note title "insert-request, xsu 2.1.0 beta & SQL Server" for reference.
    Steve.

    Thanks for the notification. We will look into this issue...

  • Active Message When you have invalid host name in Proxy Server

    I have an issue with one of our customers.
    To communicate with any external parties, we have to define the host name in proxy server(Firewall).
    I noticed that when we configure a WCF or HTTP adapter with an invalid host name of https url address, the messages remain active.
    I am using ESB Toolkit in my implementation but I reproduced same issue using Orchestration with static port and dynamic port. 
    I traced the message using Fiddler and I noticed that we only have one hit with Status Code 407(407 proxy authentication required) and it is not retrying which is not a risk to my implementation. However, I consumed a web service using a console application
    and I set an invalid host name for url but I noticed there are two hits in Fiddler one is 200 http status code and the second hit 407 http status code and I could catch the exception.
    The question is: How to enforce BizTalk to suspend these messages or how to handle these messages?
    Note that I did the followings trials but no lucks:
    - I updated retry count to zero
    -  Delivery Notification of the Port is Transmitted
    - updated closeTimeout, sendTimeout, openTimeout values
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Mohan,
    You are getting "The remote name could not be resolved" because you are not using Proxy.
    I tried to tweak on Retry Count(tried zero,1,2...). I am sure it is not retrying because there is not any network hits or packets in Fiddler or WireShark and messages stay forever.
    ESB is not my issue because I reproduced same issue with a simple orchestration consuming a service with a static send port. 
    I have the following notes:
    - In console application and Biztalk application using WireShark I can see same number and types of network packets in both cases.
    - I tried to change https url to http with incorrect host name in this time retrying is working and message suspended after exceeding retry count.
    - I tried to use https which is the required one with correct host name and change service name, I could see client OK Hello and server OK Hello and retying working fine and message suspended after that.
    I think the issue with handshaking with proxy server because I could not see client Ok and Server ok hello when changing the host name.
    There is another thread talking about an issue with active message and handshake.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/736f0f72-ccc9-4a84-802a-7a1ff788a04a/ssl-2way-cert-incident-remains-active?forum=biztalkgeneral
    But the question remains open that how we can handle this active message and why BizTalk not throwing an error?

  • Background job in APO does not start because of invalid user name

    Hello,
    I have a macro in a planning book and the /sapapo/cons_check program which a triggered via a background job. Now, I have problems with the start of the job:
    At the time the job was created inside SAP, an error occured. The job contains invalid values.
    The user name within the job does not exist any more.
    Now, I try to change the user name of the job (via step in sm37), but the error occured again.
    I have the possibility to create the invalid user name once again in su01.
    But I want to change the user name of the job - does somebody know how to do it?
    Thanks for your help!
    Kind regards
    Heinz

    Hello Heinz, this looks surprising.
    It's quite easy to change the user name in the SM37 job step, and we haven't faced issues with this.
    Could you check how many jobs are in either "scheduled" or in "released" status, and change steps for all of them? May be you changed the scheduled job, but the released job wasn't changed.
    Use your job name and give a search date as 1-2 years in the past, and around 1 month in the future. With this time horizon, you should most likely be able to capture all the relevant jobs having the same name that you are using.
    Now change the user name in step for all the jobs received above to be fully sure.
    One more trial could be to copy the current scheduled job to another job, modify the user name in this newly created job and then delete the old one.
    One of the above trials might possibly help you in some way, else its very tough to understand/explain your situation.
    Thanks - Pawan

  • SSRS Error : Query execution failed for dataset 'dataSet'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Semantic query execution failed. Invalid object name 'RPT.*********'. (rsSemanticQueryEngineError)

    I am new to SSRS and I am trying to migrate reports from 2008 to 2012. As I have so many reports to migrate, I simply got the back up of ReportServer,

    Hi Kishore237,
    According to your description, you migrated some reports from Reporting Services (SSRS) 2008 to 2012. Now you get error when accessing the reports on SSRS 2012. Right?
    In this scenario, did you modify the report data source in database after migration? You can try to open the report in Report Builder or Report designer and check the report dataset. If you can preview the report in Report builder or Report designer,
    please try to redeploy the report to Report Server. If it is still not working, please try to restore the database from backup. And for migrating reports, please follow the "Content-Only Migration" in the link below:

    Hi,
    “All but one database are upgradable. However, one database gives:
    Invalid object name 'Webs'.”
    Did the sentence you mean only one database not upgrade to SharePoint 2013 and given the error?
    One or more of the following might be the cause:
    Insufficient SQL Server database permissions
    SQL Server database is full
    Incorrect MDAC version
    SQL Server database not found
    Incorrect version of SQL Server
    SQL Server collation is not supported
    Database is read-only
    To resolve the issue, you can refer to the following article which contains the causes and resolutions.

  • Invalid File Name Errors when syncing to Ipod

    Ever since an update last fall I have been getting Invalid file name errors when I try to sync my ipod. A window would pop up saying "Windows could not copy 'SONGNAME' to the iPod 'IPODNAME' because an unkown error occurred (-37)." I would press OK and another window would immediately pop up that would say, "Attempting to copy to the disk 'IPODNAME' failed. the file name is invalid or too long."
    The windows would keep popping up countless times until the sync would just seem to time out and stop.
    The problem songs would have no problem playing in iTunes.
    Prior to the update this did not happen. No new songs were added around this time and nothing was changed to my file directory structure. I was too busy to troubleshoot this problem at the time and hoped that another update would fix it. Well, here I am many months and updates later and still no fix. After fiddling with iTunes and resetting my Ipod multiple times (goodbye saved angry bird games)I have found out that:
    1. By writing down the file name when the error windows pop up I can get a partial list of the problem file names. I could not get a complete list of the problem files because the sync would time out before a full list could be compiled (the list appears to be in the hundreds).
    2. If I changed the name of the file by adding OR deleting one character, remapping the song in itunes, the song would then sync properly.
    3. If I changed the name of the file, remapped the location of the file within iTunes, changed the name of the file BACK to the original name that iTunes supposedly had a problem with, and then remapped the location of the song within iTunes, the song would then sync properly
    4. If I moved the song to a different directory without changing the file name, remapped the song within iTunes, the song would sync properly.
    5. If I moved the song to a different directory without changing the file name, remapped the song within iTunes, moved the file BACK to the original directory, remapped the song again, the song would sync properly.
    6. If I renamed the file and then named it back to the original file name WITHOUT remapping the file location in iTunes, the song would still not sync properly
    7. If I moved the file into a different directory and then back again without remapping the file location, the song would still not sync properly.
    8. Changing or deleting the tags has no effect at all.
    9. File name lengths are already under 200 characters and there are no special characters used.
    So, to sum up, I have found out a way to fix the issue. The problem is, that there are hundreds of songs that appear to be affected and renaming or moving every single one individually and then remapping is extremely inefficient and ignores the cause of the problem. I also did not want to delete the itunes library and then add all of the songs back in because I have many custom playlists that I have spent hours creating and I do not want to delete them.
    Is there a better way to fix the problem? Especially if someone knows the root cause?

    I got a procmon log file and examined it. I have the file and I could also provide you with that or screenshots of it.
    There is nothing unusual about it. I can see entires in which CR has successfully opened the report and has cached in a c:\windows\temp.
    However there is one or two non-successful entries that may be related, especially that examining the stack trace brings us to a call to get_ProductLocaleID():
    - A call to read reg entry HKU\S-1-5-20\Software\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\Locale fails with NAME NOT FOUND.
    - immediately after that and from the same process (w3wp.ex) there is a call to open directory "c:\" which is logged as ACCESS DENIED.
    Any subsequent unsuccessful calls seem to be results of exception handling in the debug code.
    Does this point to any setup issues with CR? We always run the redistributable x86 runtime when installing it.

  • Copying files from Mac to Windows-invalid file names

    Unfortunately, my boss likes Windows more than Macs, so we have puchased some new Dell computers to replace older G4 Macs.
    I'm having trouble copying existing files from a Mac (OS 10.4)to the shared drive on the Windows XP computer. I'm getting an error message:
    "You can't copy the item 'filename' because the name is too long or includes characters that the disk can't display." Sometimes it doesn't give a filename, it gives a similar message "Some items couldn't be copied..."
    I assume the person has used some "illegal" file names such as "Meeting minutes 10/7/07" Or maybe we have too many folders inside of folders.
    QUESTION: Is there a correct/better way to copy large quantites of files/folders from Mac to Windows? Or is there a program that will look at the Mac files and alert me to wrong or too long files names?
    Other ideas to copy these files?
    thanks,
    Bill

    You can use a freeware utility like Renamer4Mac or BatchRename'em both of which have built-in filters that will rename files for Windows compatibility.
    Thank you... This sounded to me like it would fix the problem, so I downloaded both and looked at them. However, the manual/help file is very sparse, so I don't know if it will do what I want to and how it would do it.
    1. I couldn't find any option in either program to: Look at all files in selected folder, and list any invalid file names for Windows.
    2. There doesn't seem to be an option to "rename files without bad Windows characters" or "Remove invalid for Windows characters"
    I just couldn't find any explanation of how it was offering to rename the files. I can't rename all files to sequential names, that would make it hard to find a file later.
    Thank you,
    Bill
