Is it possible to process a 0kb file within a custom pipeline component?

Hi There, 
You probably wondering.. what the hell do you need this for?
Well.. we have a third party application that process a file as following
1) Import the original file
2) Export the original file
3) Append the original file (with the data I need)
4) Create a 0 kb file with the original exported filename but added .sem to show me that the export is done.
So my guessing was to with a custom pipeline component (receive) to pickup the .sem file, and use the original exported file to process the data from within the custom pipeline component. 
Well, this works perfectly. 
But... this only works if I add any data to the .sem file. 
Otherwise BizTalk picks up the .sem file, but does not process it, it actually does not enter the pipeline at all, and it also does not appear in the tracking.
Is there a possiblity to accept 0kb files within a custom pipeline component?
Please help, Thanks
DP 

Hi,

  • How to process Idoc status file within Sap?

    Hi All,
    We would like to process received status file to update the sent IDOC's. Our current setup is that we send/push  the Outbound Idoc to external EDI sub system and pull the status file for processed Idoc from external EDI system to our R/3 server.
    Sap Documentation explains the scenario, where this process is triggered from external system using startrfc program, whereas our scenario is to trigger the status update process, once the file is pulled to our system from unix using edi_status_incoming function module.
    Your anwers are much appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Sandhya

    Hi Sandhya,
    Once the Idocs are sent to the EDI Subsystem, the SAP will have the status that the Idoc has reached the partner sub system. I hope, the workflow should be able to trigger back the status file to the SAP System after the Idoc is processed at the EDI Subsystem.
    Please check with the workflow that is attached.
    Else, if this is using the FM or Message Control, then check the configuration under MN04.
    I'm also trying to find the solution for the same.

  • Is it possible to hyperlink a PDF file within iWeb?

    i understand the fact that the pdf file is on my computer and other users cannot access the file; however, the reason i made the pdf in the first place was to keep it off of iweb. i feel as if iweb slows down and/or generally has problems digesting larger files. my real question is: what do i need to do to my pdf file in order to make it accessible to those trying to access it off of iweb?

    There is nothing wrong with your code it removes the lastline, if there is no carriage return on it.
    If your input file is like:  
       line1 <cr><lf>
               line2 <cr><lf>
               line3 
    The result is: 
               line1 <cr><lf>
               line2 <cr><lf>
    But if your input file is like:
                 line1 <cr><lf>
                  line2 <cr><lf>
                  line3 <cr><if>
    The result is:
                 line1<cr><lf>
                 line2<cr><lf>
                <empty line>
    So when you have a carriage return on the last line, it results in an empty line, can this be the cause of your problem?

    Hello,
    my problem is with importing saved .json backup file in fresh installed firefox 3.6.8? Message "unable to process the backup file", when i choosed option "Restore" from menu "organize your bookmarks" !?
    Normally that i followed all instructions from your support site, and that i tried many things, but nothing helped :( !?
    my .json file isn't corrupted cause it was saved on another partition before formatting my OS.
    Please don't tell me that my bookmarks are lost :( cause i had many important things in that bookmarks, on 100.s pages :( ....
    Thanks in advance!
    Sincerely,

    Can you restore that JSON backup in a new profile?
    Did you make sure that it is really a JSON backup and that there is no missing or hidden other file extension?
    A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded"
    A HTML backup starts with: <!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
    You can try if you can restore that JSON backup in a new profile.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    Please for administration of this support site, make possibility to quote someone's answer, on this way is dificult to answer somebody who wrote some suggestion!
    No, i can't restore JSON backup in new profile, even on fresh installed OS XP SP3, with fresh installation of latest version of firefox!
    MAN I TOLD YOU 10X IT'S 200 % JSON BACKUP FILE!!! I'M NOT IN IT FROM YESTERDAY, I WORK IN IT 12 YEARS!!!
    I tried restoring json backup in new profile, but nothing, i couldn't restore, cause that stupid error from screen shot which i posted again appears !
    Man i'm not totally noob i repeat 2nd time here, and normally that i know to create new profile, and that i tried that, but that didn't help!
    I can't believe that FIREFOX has not good support team, and doesn't care for yours users, this will not give me more reason to use in future firefox
    like borwser, if i don't have good support, and when i have problem like this, to loose all my very important bookmarks and passwords on them, and
    firefox support won't to help me to solve my problem!
    If somebody from firefox support team read this, i can give you Remote desktop access to my computer to try solve this problem, like other serious company
    like HP, Dell , etc. give remote desktop support to their users!
    Corel are you from firefox support team? Please don't write same suggestions, cause i know to read, and i understand well if you write once some suggestion!

    I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why the iTunes Scripting Brigde returned failed when it is actually success?

    I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account?  I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.

  • FCC file channel cannot process the empty file

    Hi,
    My requirement is like that a msg mapping getting two files from different sources and combining into one file and send to the receiver. There is a possibility that any one of the file can be empty.. now  problem is how to process the empty file in FCC file channel. When we trying to process the msg we are getting the error msg like "file end of exception". we already check the option empty file in file comm channel....under processing tab. But no use.Though we achieved through a module in sender channel. i want to know how to achieve this through simple content conversion by the FCC channel.
    In Content conversion. Record----> item,.. here what is mean ''? 0 to outbound or 1 to outbound?
    Regards
    Balaji

    Hi Balaji,
    here what is mean ''? 0 to outbound or 1 to outbound*
    means 0 to unbounded.
    Let me remind u ... the requirement cannot be achived in this way.. if file is empty.
    I hope u already checked the option..
    process empty files.
    I think u can handle this by, using a adapter module, in which..
    if file size(ASMA) is zero.. create a empty message and send it
    to the PI.

  • 1.is it possible to read a .xls file and load it into an oracle table

    1.is it possible to read a .xls file and load it into an oracle table, using oracle database or oracle forms i.e. either utl_file, or text_io, or any other oracle tool.
    As far as I know we need a csv file or a txt ( tab delimited) file ?
    2.Are there any windows tools for the same

    Hi,
    If you want to use the DDE package to read the XLS file then yes, you will neeed to know the number of rows and columns in the input file.
    i.e. How will you know :
    1) How many columns are there in the input file.
    If I have a XLS file with the following data :
    R1C1 R1C2 R1C3 R1C4 R1C5 R1C6 R1C7
    xxx xx x
    Where R represents row and C represents column, then how will you know the each row has 7 columns. If you know the answer upfront, then it's not a issue.
    Using the DDE apprach, you will have to specify the RowNum and the ColumnNo of each idividual cells to read/write data from xls sheet.
    Look at the syntax in my ealier post.
    using the other approch (i.e. comma delimited text file - CSV file) , you need not know the number of columns as you can loop thru the input record till the last column is read.
    All you have to do is to look for the 'n' occurances of the field delimiter say ',', do a substr from the current position to the point where the ',' was found.
    This process is to be repeated in a loop till all columns are read.
    The TEXT_IO package can trap for EOF (End Of File).
    Hope I made myself clear.

  • Since the FF8 update, all bookmarks were lost and none of the recommended methods for restoring lost bookmarks work; I always get "Unable to process to backup file" even though the backup .json files still exist

    Since a FF8 update, all bookmarks were lost and none of the recommended restore methods work, even though I have been able to find the backup ".json" files; I continually get "Unable to process the backup file" for all methods of importing or restoring the bookmarks from the .json files. As others note, I can also no longer add any new bookmarks to my now empty bookmarks tab. My profile has not changed, so that's not the problem. This is really a pain.
