OPEN DATASET in ABAP MAPPING

Hi Gurus
I'm trying to use the statement OPEN DATASET into a ABAP MAPPING but when I test in ID I get this error:
<Trace level="1" type="T">Error in mapping program ZCL_FI_CFD_MEX (type SAP-ABAP, kernel error ID UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION) </Trace>
Also I've a ABAP program to test MAPPING and in debbuging time OPEN DATASET is everything OK.
Can I use any ABAP statement in ABAP MAPPING?
Thanks in advance.
Carlos

Hello Carlos,
Please check exception handling implementation in your ABAP mapping - precisely speaking, handling of exceptions for OPEN DATASET. From error message you receive, it is seen that the exception is raised in OPEN DATASET and this exception is not handled. List of exceptions that can occur when calling OPEN DATASET is given below (taken from ABAP documentation):
CX_SY_FILE_OPEN / DATASET_REOPEN
CX_SY_CODEPAGE_CONVERTER_INIT / CONVT_CODEPAGE_INIT
CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE / CONVT_CODEPAGE
CX_SY_FILE_AUTHORITY /OPEN_DATASET_NO_AUTHORITY, OPEN_PIPE_NO_AUTHORITY
CX_SY_PIPES_NOT_SUPPORTED
CX_SY_TOO_MANY_FILES / DATASET_TOO_MANY_FILES
Non-catchable exception / DATASET_PIPE_POSITION
Please let me know what exactly exception occurs so that more accurate analysis of the issue could be provided to you.
Please also provide source code extract of the affected mapping program (the part where OPEN DATASET is called) if possible.
Regards,
Vadim

Err with scheduling an abap program using open dataset

issue: have an abap program which uses "open dataset ... for input ..." to read the file.
- with manual ly running it, receive the following message "dataset_not_open".
- with scheduling it, receive same message
attempting to run an abap program as part of a process chain (ie scheduling a background job) in BI.
the abap performs the following fxns:
1) read a file on the server
2) removes delimiter, renames it
3) rewrites the file onto the server
initially used ws_upload for reading and ws_download for writing the file.
- both fxns worked fine if it is run manually --> but failed as a background (part of process chain)
- note 7925 states can't use ws_upload, download for background jobs
-so switched to "open dataset"
Any suggestions as to why the "open dataset" does not work is greatly appreciated it.
B.A.

Thank you for all responses. here is more info about the err message:
sy-subrc = 8
'invalid argument'
I looked up the invalid argument in note 99155 --> due to "The destination file is no longer available during repeated file access. "   So, the following steps were taken:
- file was regenerated and
- file was placed on the server to be read
have the following code:
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE encoding default
                      MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
also have tried the following:
   OPEN DATASET d1 for input in text mode encoding default.
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding NON-UNICODE..
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding utf-8.
none had worked. system --> status shows no unicode.
THanks again for any suggestions.

Identity abap report where is used the open dataset istruction

We need to identify the abap program where is used the open dataset istruction.
We need this because we are planning a platform change from windows to unix.
Regards
Giuseppe

Hi,
I am not sure but we check it either manually or by search keyword. Secondry we can use code inspector where we put the open dataset keyword. That will find all.
If you got some more information then pls. also share with me

OPEN Dataset - Peculiar problem

Hello experts!
I am facing a peculiar problem with ABAP keyword OPEN DATASET.
I have a directory to which I am adding new files using OPEN DATASET FOR OUTPUT.. this works perfectly fine in the Consolidation system. But the same thing does'nt work in the Production system! It return SY-SUBRC = 8
After reading several other posts on SDN and other forums, the following causes were touted.
1) Path incorrect
2) No Authorization
But upon checking, neither of the wo are possible because the path is maintained properly and the authorizations at OS level are given (R/W) to this folder. Moreover, the user has S_DATASET auth object!!
Then I read somewhere else that having multiple Application Servers could be a possible cause and that running the code as a background job would be afix.. Is it so?
Even if it is, the application is in ABAP Web Dynpro and is launched from the portal.. hence launching it as a background job is not an option... Any solutions?????
Any help on this would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance, Amith

Hi,
Yes this is true that if we are having the multiple application server then this kind of error occures if your specified directory is not mapped on the alll the avaiable sAP application servers.
I guess when ever you are running your application then system will pick the appkication server based on the present load. Hence if your directory is not mapped in that application server then you wil get this kind of issues,
so i guess check with you basis team that spctified path is avaiable in all the application server.

ABAP Mapping: ostream with multiple sibling tags (ixml_document_fragment ?)

Hallo,
during ABAP Mapping I have the following problem:
I want to return a message to XI Java stack in the following format:
<?xml version="1.0"?><ns0:MT_FILE_PAXAR_INB xmlns:ns0="http://logimoda.com/ns_paxar">
<Recordset>
[... child tags which values are retrieved from fields of each record of an internal table]
</Recordset>
</ns0:MT_FILE_PAXAR_INB>
I want n <Recordset>, one for each record of the internal table "t_etichette", which is populated by:
CALL FUNCTION 'ZXI_ETICHETTE_COMPOSIZIONE_PEZ'
Now, i'm not able to append n sibling <Recordset>, only one is appended to parent <ns0:MT_FILE_PAXAR_INB>.
I guess the solution is ixml_document_fragment or using someway an iteration, but I don't know how...
Any suggestion?
Thanks all in advance:)

Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_TOO_MANY_FILES', was not
     caught and
    therefore caused a runtime error.
    The reason for the exception is:
    The maximum number of open files (100) has been exceeded.
please let me know what should makes changes to avoid this abend?

Standard programming problem, should be rather trivial to find with a quick search. Basically there's always a limit of how many open file handles you can have at a time.
Please try to consult the ABAP help next time before posting (or search on SCN). A quick check for [open dataset|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPOPEN_DATASET.htm] would've told you the following:
You can open up to 100 files per internal session. The actual maximum number of simultaneously open files may be less, depending on the platform.
Most likely you actually don't want to have all those files open at the same time and you simply forgot to use a [close dataset|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPCLOSE_DATASET.htm] after reading each file.

Configuring ABAP Mapping

I am working on SAP XI 3.0
As per documentation i add the entry in
http://<hostname>:<portid>/exchangeProfile
com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes
as e.g.
R3_ABAP|Abap-class;R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP Engine)
but i.e. not seen in the
httP://<hostname>:<portid>/rep/support/index.html
All Properties options
so what else configuration required
because one of its sentence says that:
Technically, the Integration Server calls the ABAP function CALL_PARTNER_MAPPING with the additional mapping type name as destination. Therefore, the additional mapping type name must be registered as RFC-Destination in the Integration Server, too.
so where to define RFC-Destination and how.
Thanks & Regards,
Gaurav Jain

Hi
HERE are steps for abap mapping
1. Add additional mapping types in your
exchange profile
Open
http://<host>:<port>/exchangeProfile/ind
ex.html
Choose IntegrationBuilder ->
IntegrationBuilder.Repository ->
com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.addition
altypes
Maintain the following entry:
R3_ABAP|Abapclass;
R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP
Engine)
2. Check whether the data has been
successfully read from the exchange profile:
Open
http://<host>:<port>/rep/support/admin/in
dex.html
Choose Administration of Properties ->
All Properties
If the value associated to parameter
com.sap.aii.repository.mapping
.additionaltypes is not correct.
3 . Create a class and implement interface IF_Mapping in that.
4. implement ABAP mapping.
Hope this will help
thanx

Problem in parsing in ABAP mapping

Hi all , In our ABAP mapping we are trying to create a DOM tree from a XML file but we are getting the error in the following statement
l_rc = if_iparser->parse( ).
when we track the error using
i = l_error->get_line( ). (result 0)
i = l_error->get_column( ). (result 2017)
str = l_error->get_reason( ). (Expected '<' or '/>' tag)
but strange thing is we can open the file using Stylus studio/ Altova / IE ..so may the problem is not in the XML file ....Has anybody faced the problem before ??

Hi,
Have a look at this link.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/46759682-0401-0010-1791-bd1972bc0b8a
I guess,your code may have problem.
Try doing this from document.
iparser = ixmlfactory->create_parser( stream_factory = streamfactory
istream = istream
document = idocument ).
iparser->parse( ).

Hope this will help.

ABAP Proxy ABAP Mapping

Hi All,
The use of ABAP Proxy is nothing but the Adapterless implementation,as per my assumption.But is there any other reason for prefessing ABAP Proxy over the Adapter while the practical implenentation is done?
Also,for ABAP Mapping ,I have a qustion that when is ABAP Mapping preferred over other Mappings that is Graphical Mapping and Java Mapping while practical implementation?
Thanks and regards,
Amol

Hi Shweta,
To answer your first question, we prefer ABAP proxies over RFCs due to the reason that the communication happens directly between the Integration Engine of sender sap R/3 system and the IE of the XI system. It elimintes the need for Adapter Engine(On the sender side).
However, when there are standard IDOCs avaialble, then we use IDOCs instead of proxies due to the various other advantages of IDOCs like monitoring, reprocxesing etc.
But, in case the sender is not a SAP R/3 system, then obvious we can not use ABAP Proxy.
Refer this article to choose the best integration option amongst Proxy,RFC,Enterprise Services.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0e7ae66-be6d-2a10-d385-92e6e67dee10
Regarding your second question,
ABAP mapping is least preferred due to issues like Performance, Non-Portability (We cannot use the abap mapping in any other Open-source middleware).
The only time we go for it is if we have people with only ABAP skills..:)

Ravi Kanth Talagana

How to get ABAP mapping option in Interface Mapping

Hi
experts
How to get ABAP mapping option in Interface Mapping . i need to do abap mapping . i didnt find the option
plz help me

Hi,
If u2018ABAP-classu2019 and u2018XSL(ABAP ENGINE)u2019 does not appear under the u2018Mapping Program Typeu2019 in Interface Mapping, one has to make an additional entry in the Exchange Profile.
Only a user with the J2EE security role (administrator) can make the following settings in the Exchange Profile.
It is achieved in the following manner:
1) Open http://<host>:<port>/exchangeProfile/index.html
2)Choose IntegrationBuilder ->IntegrationBuilder.Repository -> com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes
Add: R3_ABAP|Abap-class;R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP Engine)
To check whether the data has been successfully read from the exchange profile:
1- Open http://<host>:<port>/rep/support/admin/index.html
2- Choose Administration of Properties -> All Properties
3- If the value associated to parameter com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes is not visible, press REFRESH button
After doing above check in IR, if still don't find the option for ABAP mapping then refresh the cache.
Award points if useful.

Open Dataset fails with "Invalid Argument"

From an ABAP program I can't write to a share folder on a windows 2000 box. The share permissions are set to Everyone Full control. I can write to a share on a windows 2003 box, but not windows 2000. Here is my code:
data: filename type string.
data: open_message type string.
filename = '
servername\edi\test.txt'.
open dataset filename for output
                        message open_message
                       in text mode.
                      encoding non-unicode.
write: /1 open_message.
I noticed that the kernel has the following info:
ICU Version                 2.6.1 Unicode Version 4.0
I was thinking there was a problem writing to a win 2000 box with an SAP Unicode Kernel.
Anyone have a clue?
Thank you,

hi
the shared folder must be accessible to the os user of your R3 installation. bcoz when u run the pgm this user will be used at the os level.
for checking this logon to the R3 os and try to access the share path. it should be accessible without providing any logon credentials.

but a shortdump happened, would u please give some solution
ShrtText
    You cannot convert the character set.
发生了什么?
    While a text was being converted from code page '4110' to '4102', one of
    the following occurred:
    - an character was discovered that could not be represented in one of
    the two code pages;
    - the system established that this conversion is not supported.
    The running ABAP program, 'YTEST_17' had to be terminated, since the
    conversion could cause incorrect data to be generated.
    683 characters could not be represented (and thus could not converted).
    If 683 = 0, a second or a different error has occurred.
thank you
Kevin
any solution, please..........

Open Dataset : File creation in server

Hi Guys,
I am trying to use
Open dataset dsn for output in text mode encoding default.   " dsn = '
pt-net\taskout\outfile.txt'.
loop at itab.
transfer itab to dsn.
endloop.
to write a file at a destination on a windows NT server For eg :
pt-net\taskout\outfile.txt
I see sy-subrc = 0 at both open dataset and transfer commands in the debugger. But the file is not written.
I can manually create files when I access this path in my explorer. So it is not an access issue.
Also, my SAP application server is a Unix server. But the file I am trying to write is in NT server. THis is for a 3rd party application. Where am I possibly going wrong ? I am able to write this file to the Unix application server path using the above command. But I need to write this in the Windows server.
Do I need first write to Unix path and then FTP it to Windows server ? I can manually do this. But since this program is going to run as a job, I want to automate this..
THanks in advance!!

Hi,
This is my advice:
First write the file in the file system of your application server.
After that find out, what to do for transport on operation system level.
Since SAP allows system calls, you can do it in the same way by program.
I give you some code. Unfortunately it is from Windows to Windows. Nevertheless I hope you can profit by it.
