File Adapter: Target directory does not exist

Hi All,
Using RFC to File Scenario.
While processing in File adapter, i get following error for the target directory.
Delivering the message to the application using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Target directory '
*********************\Out' does not exist and cannot be created.
Although I am able to use the same target directory on my local machine.

I think FTP user didnt have suffiecinet otherrization to create directory in FTP, check once again Directory format entered is correct.
if you have phycial access to FTP then create one folder and enter the same in File channel and push one message and let us know the result.

Dyanamic Configuration at receiver file adapter determine target directory

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to determine the target directory during runtime.
From the source side one particular field determine the Target directory where you need to place file
ECC - PI - File adapter - this is the scenario
In target side 3 directories in the same server . but the directory should determine from source fields - werks
As I am new to PI Please describe the procedure in detail.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kevin,
Use the below UDF and map to the rootnode in the message mapping.
public String GetFileName(Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
In the Advanced tab of the File adapter, check the option Adapter Specific Message Attributes. Under that, check the Filename option.
This would get the fieldname in the target filename.

Process 0kb empty file and deliver to target directory

Hello Experts,
We had a requirements to process an empty file handling and send it to the receiver/target directory. We had configured to "Process Empty File" Handling and Write Empty File. The 0KB file polling successfully and archived to the directory with empty payload, but the message output was never created/sent to the target directory. In smxi_moni error message displayed:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- 
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">
<SAP:Category>XIServer</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="MAPPING">CANNOT_READ_PAYLOAD</SAP:Code>

<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>Unable to read payload from the message object</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
Since this is an empty file, there are no mappings involved. Is there a way to that we could check for 0kb file? If it is empty file, we want to pass/place the empty file to the target directory and if it is not empty, we want the message to process in the standard way.

Hi David,
"Since this is an empty file, there are no mappings involved. "
do you mean you didnt do the mapping at all cos it is empty file ?
though it is empty file still you need to do the mapping as usually,but when you check the option process the empty file both in sender and receiver adapter ,then it will process even an empty file comes.if you dont check these options and you get an empty file during the process then the mapping will fail.
in real time you don't know which one is empty file right,but her you know cos you are placing empty file.
I think you got to do all the steps you do in eneral for a scenario and top on that you have to check process empty file in both sender and receiver adapters,but you may not see the payload in SXMB_MONI.
but search in SDn you get lot stuff.

BPM Scenario how to wait til file deleted in Target Directory

Hi Frnds,
I am working on one JMS to File scenario,my requirement is i am sending JMS message to File Directory,when i placed meg in target directory some vent wil read the message it wil process in to SAP.
When i receive once again mesage in JMS scenario will start execute , is previous message still in File Directory i have to wait to event occured,after procesing only i have to place next message.
How many different ways i can achieve this.
many thanks,

Hi,
you can create a java proxy in your BPM that would check the file and if so wait for some time
and check once more

Source directory (xyz. text) file needsto be placed inthe Target directory

Hi Experts,
There is a file in the source directory (xyz. text) and I need to place the same file in the
Target Directory (xyz. text) without any message transformation. How to get it using XI?
Points will be awarded ...........
Thanks,
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
You can do it without touching IR. you just need to configure the scenario in ID.
you need to do the following:
1. Create service, and two File Communication channels.
2. reciver determnation, put that service and any interfcae and namespace.
3. Interface Determination: Put Inbound Interface SAME AS you specified in Receiver Determination.
After all this you can test your scenario.

Decide target directory dynamically.

Hi All
I need to configure a receiver communication channel with file adapter. Important thing is target directory need to be decided dynamically based on some content in the message. Please let me know what are the possibilities to achieve this.
Thanks & Regards

Edited by: Shantha Bandara on Feb 12, 2008 1:05 AM

Hi Shantha,
Create UDF in that you derive directory name and/or file name based on message content and store them in Dynamic Configuration.
When you are giving Directory name just give generic name from UDF(from the following code in place of directory name just give %Directory% File name %FileName%).
Here the sample value UDF code
AbstractTrace trace = container.getTrace();
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String fnam = conf.get(key);
String dir = <Path to directory>;
String newfnam = <File name>;
conf.put(key,newfnam);
key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
conf.put(key,dir);
return("");
Please let me know if you have any issues.
Cheers,

Date and Time in Sender File Adapter Target Directory

Hi there,
is there a way of using Date and Time from XI to the Target Directory naming? To use variable substitution some fields of the message had to contain that date and time information, which is not our case.
For filename you can use "add time stamp" option, but and for target directory?
Thanks and regards,
Henrique.

Hi there, Moorthy
We've tried to write that shell script that you mentioned, but now we have a few doubts on how to make it create the proper directory.
In the file adapter, my target directory is "/%var1%/%var2%/", where %var1% and %var2% are variable substitutions, referencing data which comes from the payload. Now, I need the shell script to append "/<Year>/<Month>/" in the target directory. But where to archive the script? If it stays in the root directory, than how to make it create "/<Year>/<Month>/" folders inside a directory which is variable (/%var1%/%var2%/)?
Is there a way of passing %var1% and %var2% as parameters for the shell script?
Thanks a lot,
Henrique.

How to populate target directory from the source XML in Receiver File Adap?

Hi All,
Our scenario is IDoc - XI -(Receiver File adapter) File. Is it possible to populate complete "Target Directory" from the source XML message??
Lets say we added field to maintain target directory in Idoc structure and some how populated value to it, then grab this target directory from the IDoc-XML and pass in Comunication Channel. I think its possible through Variable Substitation ...just want to make sure and if sombody has done the similar scenario their inputs would be great.
Thanx

Target Directory in File Receiver Adapter

Experts,
I am trying for a scenario (File to File) and I am not sure if the target directory is a directory in XI server or my local machine. I used HTML client to send the message to the adapter. Also if any of you could give clear idea about source and target direcory without pointing to any weblog, I would greatly appreciate it. As I have tried every weblog available with a word File in it.
Thanks

Unable to convert the file name in Target directory

Dear Experts,
Currently iam facing a problem with some files.my interface is a File to file .As per the interface the sender will pick the flatfiles from source directory which the file name was BNP_NE201.txt once my file reached to target directory the name of the file willrenamed as VENDOR_Payment.NE201 automatically for this they have done some OS level script in receiver communication channel of the first interface which we have added "un operating system command after message processing" in processing parameters tab.again one more sender comm channel wil pick the file from first target directory which is having naming convesion of "VENDOR_Payment.NE201 " and post it to target. all the two interfaces are file to file (NFS) . for a parctuclar day files has been posted to 1 st target directory and the receiver communication channel is not yet convert the file names bcz of that the second communication channel can't able to pick the files from target directory. for some times that is working fine and some times it is unable to convert.
from our side i check every thing .could you please suggest me the way to approch
Reagrs,
Kiran tanuku

You need to wait until the file is converted. After when it is converted then the second interface sender communication channel will pick the files.
What do u mean by unable to convert?
Is it unable to do the content conversion? if so then check the data as you said that it sometimes it works fine.
> The best approach is to change the name of the file in the receiver communciation channel instead of using a script.

Adapter moduler in file adapter receiver - get Target Directory from param

Hi everybody,
We are in PI 7.1
I need in an adapter module (file adapter receiver) to access to the Target Directory comming from parameters

NDWS gives me an error "Cannot instantiate the type Channel".
Can somebody help me about that, please?
Does that code dosn't work in pi 7.1?

it should be:

Changing File Adapter target directory - container bounce required?

I edited USPSshipment.wsdl in the FulfillmentESB project to reflect my desired target directory (/home/oracle/usps_ship instead of C:\temp) and then re-registered the project with ESB.
The registration completed normally, and I verified that the edited USPSshipment.wsdl file exists in the deploy and content directories in the ESB home. Also, checking the WSDL file from the ESB console showed the new value.
However, until I bounced the OC4J_soa container, order submissions continued to use the C:\Temp target. After I bounced the container, the next order submission went to the desired /home/oracle/usps_ship.
What is the expected cacheing behavior here? Is there a programmatic way to clear the cache after an ESB deploy. It is too restrictive if I have to bounce the whole container serving ESB and BPEL (perhaps many processes and ESB adapters) just to make a change in one particular project.
Thanks.

Using the SOA Demo, FulfillementESB project ~
Example: Immediate reflection of change w/o further action
If I change the Shipment router filter criteria (Fulfillment_Shipment.esbsvc) to cut at say $750 instead of $500, then re-register FulfillmentESB with OrderBookingIS, JDeveloper reports:
Registration of Services Successful
Fulfillment Shipment Updates
The next submitted order follows the new criteria (e.g. a $600 order goes out USPS).
Example: Change not reflected in runtime, until OC4J container restarted
If I change the target physical directory of the USPS Shipment file adapter (USPSShipment.wsdl), then re-register FulfillmentESB with OrderBookingIS, JDeveloper reports:
Registration of Services Successful
However, the next submitted orders continue to be written to the previous target physical directory. Checking the value of the re-deployed USPSShipment.wsdl at the ESB host filesystem and through the ESB console shows the updated value, but the old copy is being actually used to process the message.
Restarting the OC4J container, causes the updated USPSShipment.wsdl to be referenced for messages submitted thereafter.

File not getting created in Target Directory..........

Hi All,
We are trying a IDOC-File scenario & trying to create a XML file on the receiver side........All the mappings have been checked & everything is working fine.It shows success in SXMB_MONI. But the file is not getting created at the target directory..... Checked the component Monitoring and message monitoring as well, which is also successful...
What could be the reason of such behaviour, and is there a way to track the where the target file is getting placed?
Please Help

Jayashri

Did you check the receiver communication channel in communication channel monitoring?
Are there any errors?

Source and target directory file name should be same

Hi,
How can i generate the same file name in target directory without date and Timestamp.
for eg., Source File name : yeswanth.txt
and target File name also : yeswanth.txt
Note : here source side the file yeswanth.txt is constant and whenever it moves to target directory...should be overwrite.
Reward points for useful answers.
Thanks & Regards,
yeswanth.

Hi Mugdhal,
am getting this error when i sent the same file again.
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException:
Yeswanth.txt: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. : com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550
Yeswanth.txt: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
But, here it should be overwrite the existing file.
Regards,
Yeswanth.
