Mail server parameters in MDIS.ini

Hi Guru's,
To get mails through workflow..Can anybody tell me where in MDIS .Ini file do i maintain Mail server parameters...?
I mean do i need to put
Mail server parmeter:-................
OR
Just key in Mail server parameters any where in mdis.ini file...
Regards
Vikrant M Kelkar

Hi Vikrant,
As far as I know,the Mdis.ini file is the system configuration file that determines the settings to be done for enabling automatic Importing the parameters to be set in the mdis are:
[Global]
Version
Server
Interval
Verbose1
Log Dir
SLD Registration
[Repository_Name]
Chunk Size2
No. Of Chunks Processed In Parallel1
  Login
  Password
  PasswordE
Log Protocol Transactions
Inter-Chunk Delay MS3
There is no option to set the mail server details here.
However in the Mds.ini file we have:
Mail server:
Mail SMTP time out:
These parameters will enable the mail settings for sending mail through MDM.
I may be wrong, but this is what the sap guide talks about and also the blog speaks about the settings required in the mds.ini file
If theres somthing different you've done, we can discuss it futher
Hope It Helped
Thanks & Regards

  • MDIS.ini : no repository entries

    Dear All
    The MDM server is running on UNIX. MDIS is on the same server as MDS.
    When i checked the MDIS.ini there are no repsoitory entries in it.(I have 3 repos with remote systems and ports configured)
    Initially the server name was mentioned incorrectly in the MDIS.ini. I changed it (<sever name>:59750) and restarted the MDIS.
    Shouldnt the repository entries appear automatically in MDIS.ini when the repositories are created?
    Files are not getting picked up from the Reday folder. Port is in status "Has data".
    But there is no files in the Status, log or exception folders.
    However the log files in MDIS is having the error:
    Connection to MDS server failed with error: The function ID returned did not match the expected function ID
    What am i missing?
    Regards
    Deepika

    Hi SwarnaDeepika,
    Yes parameters should appear automatically after restart.
    Please recheck the passwords of MDIS from console level.
    There is a good blog by Shambhunath here,this should be of help to you

  • Mdis.ini  file?

    Hi Friends,
    I am looking for the mdis.ini  and  importmanagerbatch.exe files.I couldnt trace those files. I want to run the batch job.
    Please guide me
    regards
    Shankar

    Hi Shankar,
    To run batch job you will have to first install the batch clients (ImportmanagerBatch and SyndicatorBatch). Download these file and install them onto your machine.
    Once you install Importmanager Batch , it will create following directory structure:
    C:\Program Files\SAP MDM 5.5\Importmanger Batch\ImportmanagerBatch.exe
    Now  you will have to configure the "mdis.ini" file as in you need to populate few of the parameters. e.g.  Map Name . Server Name (IP / Host name),Repository Name , Port number.
    You are now ready to run the batch job. Just create a batch file and type in ImportmanagerBatch command and execute it.
    Regards,
    Amol.

  • Need to have mail1 play nice with upstream mail server....

    Switched to new mail server and hitting a problem. We have a debian linux box doing SPAM filtering further upstream from the mail server and then sending down to the new leopard mail1 box.
    On the debian box we're seeing:

    # SOFT BOUNCE
    # The soft_bounce parameter provides a limited safety net for

    # to $mydestination, $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces.
    # If this parameter is defined, then the SMTP server will reject
    # mail for unknown local users. This parameter is defined by default.

    # local_recipient_maps = (i.e. empty).
    # The default setting assumes that you use the default Postfix local
    # delivery agent for local delivery. You need to update the
    # local_recipient_maps setting if:
    # - You define $mydestination domain recipients in files other than
    # /etc/passwd, /etc/aliases, or the $virtual_alias_maps files.
    # For example, you define $mydestination domain recipients in
    # the $virtual_mailbox_maps files.
    # - You redefine the local delivery agent in master.cf.
    # - You redefine the "local_transport" setting in main.cf.
    # - You use the "luser_relay", "mailbox_transport", or "fallback_transport"
    # feature of the Postfix local delivery agent (see local(8)).
    # Details are described in the LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README file.
    # Beware: if the Postfix SMTP server runs chrooted, you probably have
    # to access the passwd file via the proxymap service, in order to
    # overcome chroot restrictions. The alternative, having a copy of
    # the system passwd file in the chroot jail is just not practical.
    # The right-hand side of the lookup tables is conveniently ignored.

    # In particular, "trusted" SMTP clients are allowed to relay mail
    # through Postfix. See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions parameter
    # in postconf(5).

    # clients in the same IP subnetworks as the local machine.
    # On Linux, this does works correctly only with interfaces specified
    # with the "ifconfig" command.
    # Specify "mynetworks_style = class" when Postfix should "trust" SMTP
    # clients in the same IP class A/B/C networks as the local machine.
    # Don't do this with a dialup site - it would cause Postfix to "trust"
    # your entire provider's network. Instead, specify an explicit

    # mask specifies the number of bits in the network part of a host
    # address.

    # - from "untrusted" clients to destinations that match $relay_domains or
    # subdomains thereof, except addresses with sender-specified routing.
    # The default relay_domains value is $mydestination.

    # On an intranet, specify the organizational domain name. If your
    # internal DNS uses no MX records, specify the name of the intranet
    # gateway host instead.
    # In the case of SMTP, specify a domain, host, host:port, [host]:port,

    # If you change the alias database, run "postalias /etc/aliases" (or

  • Mail server is too slow to deliver the mail to internal domain

    Hi,
    My mail server faster enough to send the mails to other domains, but when i try to send mail to my own domain it too slow some time it take 30 t0 40 minutes to deliver the mail.
    Please help
    Thanks,
    Gulab Pasha

    You should use statspack to check what are the main waits.
    Some indicators to check :
    - too many fts/excessive IO => check sql statements (missing index, wrong where clause)
    - explain plan for most important queries : using cbo or rbo ? If cbo, statistics should be up to date. If rbo, check acces path.
    -excessive logfile switch (> 5 per hour) : increase logfile or disable logging
    - undo waits => not enough rollback segments (if you don't set AUM)
    - data waits => alter initrans, pctfree, pctused
    - too many chaining rows => rebuild set of datas or rebuild table
    - too many levels in indexes => rebuild index
    - excessive parsing : use bind variable or alter parameter cursor_sharing
    - too many sort on disks => increase sort_area_size and create others temporary tablespace on separate disks
    - too many blocks reads for a row => db_block_size too few or too many chaining rows
    - too many lru contention => increase latches
    - OS swapping/paging ?
    Too improve performance :
    - alter and tune some parameters : optimizer_mode, sort_area_size, shared_pool_size, optimizer_index_cost_adj, db_file_multiblock_read_count...
    - keep most useful packages in memory
    - gather regularly statistics (if using cbo)
    How do your users access to the db ?

    it should works, if you use the following parameters:

    I'll bet you it will NOT work & even give you 10 to 1 odds that it will fail.
    Yahoo won't relay your spam; which is why your messages will be rejected.

  • Where to configure the mail server of GRC access control 5.3?

    We changes our SMTP server in SAP and we need to configure also the mail server in Virsa but i dont know how. Can someone help me how to change the SMTP server in VIRSA/SAP GRC.
    Thank you and have a good day ahead.

    Hi topnnehj,
    In GRC 5.3 the log reports for firefighter access are sent from the back-end system. So, if you´re using the firefighter module, after a mail server change you have to set the parameters in tx. SCOT acordingly. Also you have to change in CUP if you´re using CUP workflow notifications via e-mail.
    Regards,
    Diego.

  • Upgrade from Lion Server to ML 10.8.1 Broke Mail server!

    ....10.8.1 OD seems to work, files and AFP available, but Mail server not working correctly.  Now users don't see mail, postfix issues numerous errors about missing system_user_maps and delivers no mail?  Must recover mails!  Help!  Where should I look, and what to read for Diagnosis ?
    After upgrade in place from SL to Lion to ML. most services did not work correctly; except for Mail and DNS and OD.   Reinstalled.   Now most everything seems to work including Card Services, Calendars, Wiki, Web, DNS, OD.  But Mail is off and missing???  No delivery of INcoming mail, No Sending Mail, no IMAP Mail login for users.
    On Mail configuration in Server.App:  Turned off All Filtering. Have rebooted Server several times,  Restarted Mailserver from Server,app and Terninal.   Same Results.  Somewhere along the line from Server 10.5 to SL to Lion to 10.8  incoming Maill started going to [email protected] rather than simply [email protected].
        Is it possible that virtual domains are fuzzing up the works?  The error logs use the longer virtual domain (with the sevrer name prefix) rather than the domain name?

    # The default setting assumes that you use the default Postfix local
    # delivery agent for local delivery. You need to update the
    # local_recipient_maps setting if:
    # - You define $mydestination domain recipients in files other than
    #   /etc/passwd, /etc/aliases, or the $virtual_alias_maps files.
    #   For example, you define $mydestination domain recipients in   
    #   the $virtual_mailbox_maps files.

    #   feature of the Postfix local delivery agent (see local(8)).
    # Details are described in the LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README file.
    # Beware: if the Postfix SMTP server runs chrooted, you probably have
    # to access the passwd file via the proxymap service, in order to
    # overcome chroot restrictions. The alternative, having a copy of
    # the system passwd file in the chroot jail is just not practical.
    # The right-hand side of the lookup tables is conveniently ignored.

    # TRUST AND RELAY CONTROL

    # In particular, "trusted" SMTP clients are allowed to relay mail
    # through Postfix.  See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions parameter
    # in postconf(5).
    # You can specify the list of "trusted" network addresses by hand
    # or you can let Postfix do it for you (which is the default).
    # By default (mynetworks_style = subnet), Postfix "trusts" SMTP
    # clients in the same IP subnetworks as the local machine.
    # On Linux, this does works correctly only with interfaces specified
    # with the "ifconfig" command.
    # Specify "mynetworks_style = class" when Postfix should "trust" SMTP
    # clients in the same IP class A/B/C networks as the local machine.
    # Don't do this with a dialup site - it would cause Postfix to "trust"
    # your entire provider's network.  Instead, specify an explicit
    # mynetworks list by hand, as described below.

    # Specify an explicit list of network/netmask patterns, where the
    # mask specifies the number of bits in the network part of a host
    # address.
    # You can also specify the absolute pathname of a pattern file instead

    # The relay_domains parameter restricts what destinations this system will

    # - from "trusted" clients (IP address matches $mynetworks) to any destination,
    # - from "untrusted" clients to destinations that match $relay_domains or
    #   subdomains thereof, except addresses with sender-specified routing.
    # The default relay_domains value is $mydestination.
    # In addition to the above, the Postfix SMTP server by default accepts mail
    # that Postfix is final destination for:
    # - destinations that match $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces,
    # - destinations that match $mydestination
    # - destinations that match $virtual_alias_domains,
    # - destinations that match $virtual_mailbox_domains.

    # lookup tables, separated by commas and/or whitespace.  Continue
    # long lines by starting the next line with whitespace. A file name
    # is replaced by its contents; a type:name table is matched when a
    # (parent) domain appears as lookup key.

    # On an intranet, specify the organizational domain name. If your

    # gateway host instead.
    # In the case of SMTP, specify a domain, host, host:port, [host]:port,

  • REP-50138: mail : Mail server is not available in eBiz R12 Advanced Distrib

    Hi,
    I am trying to get Reports Advanced Distribution working in eBiz 12.1.1 for custom reports but get concurrent job failures with the following messages in the job log:-
    REP-57054: In-process job terminated:Executed successfully but there were some errors when distribute the output
    REP-50159: Executed successfully but there were some errors when distribute the output
    REP-50138: mail : Mail server is not available
    The <distribution>.xml has 2 steps:-
    1. create pdf report output in the file system [works correctly]
    2. email the report as a pdf attachment [fails]
    (The xml appears to validate)
    I have configured the <rwservlet>.conf "mailServer" pluginparam;
    I can telnet from apps host (Win2003) to mailserver host smtp port (Linux) from the appserver environment.
    Is there something else I should have done or am I trying the impossible in the eBiz environment?
    Regards,
    Michael

    Thanks Hussein.
    As I said originally, the apps host OS is Win2003. We know mail works from the database layer on this apps host but this is the first time we have tried from the appserver layer.
    However, it is impractical in EBS to execute reports from the command line because of the complex cross-schema relationships, embedded profile_options and temporary data requirements setup by a calling form in this case.
    Some of the rwrun command line options can be included in a concurrent job but many of the common ones cause job failures
    e.g. Tracing and over-rides of the more common report 'system parameters'.
    I have already covered the issues raised in the notes you mentioned in the pluginparam setting so I am wondering whether eBiz has some restrictions on Advanced Distribution. I am waiting on Metalink but they don't seem to have any interest in responding to my SR which basically just asks the question 'does eBiz support Advanced Distribution'.
    I'll wait on their response and post the result when I know what's possible unless somebody else has a suggestion.

    Hi Aklilu,
    just a copy & paste of my reply in the other thread
    > We are trying to parameter the mdis.ini and until now it does not work.
    Could you specify this? In addition, I've got a few hints:
    MDIS has to have the same build version as the MDM Server. In addition, MDIS has to be running (in Windows, you can check this in the Services Screen). Furthermore you should have a look at the Console's port definition (select your repository, go to Admin -> Ports in the menu tree). The port has to be configured correctly (XML Scheme, which map to be used, and so on). Very important: you have to set the port to automatic processing.
    Here's a sample for the MDIS.ini:
    [GLOBAL]
    Version=5540
    Server=WDFD00146633A
    Interval=30
    Automap Unmapped Value=True
    Unmapped Value Handling=Add

    Using the Verbose parameter you can define which errors, issues, messages and so on should be written into the MDIS log. You can find the logs directly in the port's log folder and in the log folder of your MDIS installation directory. If MDIS is not working or the import fails, these files contain some helpful information.
    Kind regards

  • Incoming Mail Server Not Responding

    Hi from a Mac Newbie...
    I am trying to set up multiple email acounts to be accessed by Mail, and keep getting the "The POP server “mail.hotmail.com” is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the “Incoming Mail Server” field. If it still doesn’t respond, the server might be temporarily unavailable". The same for just hotmail.com. Once I get this to work I need to set up gmail, too.
    Am I typing something in wrong?
    Thanks

    Has it worked before on the pad.  If it has in the past, and does not now that means either the server is down or busy,  just wait a while.    or some how you have altered you name or password or some other server parameter inadvertently.
    Third choice is you have dropped your Internet connection.  Is anything else on the Internet working?
    Try the same account from safari using web,ail, or from another computer.  If it is down, it will be down there as well.  If it works there, but not from the pad, recheck the parameters and your connection again.

  • Incoming Mail Server Password Disappears

    Suddenly I'm unable to receive mail.
    I check the account settings.
    Under "Incoming Mail Server", next to "password", I see "Required". Well, duh.
    I re-enter the password and exit Settings. The password is still there.
    I send myself a test mail. I wait about 3 minutes for the internets.
    I start mail on the iPhone.
    I receive the notification: "Cannot Get Mail > The connection to the server "mail.mydomainname.com" failed."
    I return to mail settings and find my password has been erased.
    I am able to retrieve the test mail from another computer with the same account setting.
    Help is appreciated.
    Don't know if this is part of the problem, but under "Mailboxes" I now only see "Inbox" and not "Sent" and "Trash". Also, I have no problem sending mail to the same mail server.

    I resolved this by:
    A) doing a memory consolidation restart;
    B) deleting the mail account;
    C) doing a memory consolidation restart;
    D) re-creating a mail account with exactly the same information as that deleted in B);
    E) restarting the iPhone.
    As the parameters in D match the parameters in B, this has to be a bug.

  • Which mail server is used in a webapp?

    Hi all,
    I have a Webapp where the users can send an email
    to me including the parameters of a form
    ( <form action="mailto:[email protected])....>
    <input type="hidden" name="param1" value="xx"/>
    Now depending on which mail client the user has on his machine the resulting email differs, sometimes the parameters as 1 attachment, sometimes xx attachments.
    So I want to implement it with javamail-api.
    MY question: I have to tell the API the name of the mailserver. How can I know what mail-server the user uses? Or are all these emails processed through my own mail-server?
    Please help me to understand it. Thanks a lot in advance,
    Peter

    Hey ho.
    You have to hardconde the mail servers in your code to point to the mail server you use (= your ISP's server) or host (= Your own mailserver). All the mails are then processed through that specified server.

    Please, help me.

    Hello arnobeck, I would start with the basics, can you receive emails?
    Everything bellow refers to settings under the mail service.
    Are your Domain and Host names set to what you want? - General tab
    Make sure Kerberos or CRAM-MD5 are checked. - Advanced tab
    Check you have certificates selected for both SMTP SSL: and IMAP and POP SSL:. - Advanced tab
    Check the certificates match the domain name set in the General tab. - Advanced tab
    P.S. I'm not the most advanced with mail server service, but hopefully I can help.
    Regards,
    Graham
