OS commands from File adapter Trace logs?

Hi All,
I am running some UNIX OS commands from File adapter as showing in below Blog.
Problem is that in SXMB_MONI & in Runtime workbench I can not see any Trace logs written by those UNIX OS commands.
Even I am writing echo messages.
Runtime Workbench says only OS command file executed.
Please guide me where I can see OS trace if some OS command fails?
Any transaction code even at BASIS level exist?
Or the only other way round exist is I need to write log into some files.

I am using PI7.1.

I think no solution, other then writing ABAP code using RFC SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and put log/trace in some table/application.

OS Command in File Adapter

Hi All,
I am trying to encrypt a file from XI and FTP to a different location. I am using PGP software for encryption and decryption. I am able to encrypt/decrypt the file from the OS level. The command I am using at OS level is:
pgp --home-dir /.pgp --encrypt test.txt --recipient 0xC483S9E6
If I use the same command in Sender File adapter in Run Operating System Command After Processing it is not encrypting. But I am using the same above command:
pgp --home-dir /.pgp --encrypt test.txt --recipient 0xC483S9E6
Now if I run the scenario the file is writing but it is not encrypting the file. Can you guys tell me where I am exactly going wrong.
---Korobee

Hi,
Try this, write all you OS command in a BATCH file say "encrypt.bat" and then call the batch script from File adapter. Also make sure you are giving the full path for all the files that you are refering to like
\serverfolderpgp --home-dir /.pgp --encrypt \serverfoldertest.txt --recipient 0xC483S9E6
Any more help let me know.
Thanks,
Prakash

OS commands in File adapter

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to move the xml file(size 2GB) across the FTP server. I thought of zipping the file due to huge size before picking it up and unzip before dropping at the receiver FTP.
I know we can use Run Operating System command before and after message processing option in File adapter, but can you please guide me how can really use this option.
Thanks in advance,
MK

Return Code after Command Line (File Adapter)

Hello all,
i execute in the File Receiver Channel a Shell Script.
Now i need a solution, when an error happens. The script returns an error code and i want that the Adapter Monitor is showing this information/error.
How can i enable this?
Or is there an other possibility to monitor this??
many thanks for your help
ilka

Hi IIka,
I have not tried this but I think
The return code of the script cannot be shown in monitor, because the call ends (does not expect a response) once the file adapter is called.
May be you can capture the errors in a seperate file and
use that as a log.
I am not sure if there is anyother way
also check this blog /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/08/17/xi-operation-system-command--error-catching

Read File identified by filename from File Adapter

Hi all,
is there any way to read a file (which is identified by a given name) by using the file adapter.
My scenario is the following:
Webservice -> PI -> File
I call PI via a Webservice. The webservice call contains the filename of the file that i'd like to receive as response. Is it possible to realize this scenario with PI - from my experience it is not possible. But i would appreciate if you have some alternative solutions for me.
BR,
Martin

Hi Martin,
you can't achieve required functionality by standard File adapter; you need to write adapter module to achieve it.
SAP says
If you are developing a module for the sender file/FTP adapter and want to access the file name, see SAP Note 819761
below is the link for Adapter module generation which might help.

How to transform data received from file adapter

hi',
I am reading the data from XML file using file adapter, now I want to write the same contents which I have read from this file to a different/new XML file, the issue is I am unable to perform a transform here, when I use a transform with source element as the output of the file read and target as the input to the new file it is writing an empty file,
I have checked the audit trail which showsme that the transform is empty.
please tell me how can I transform the element which I have received from one file to make them as input to next file
thanks
Yatan

thanks James for input, this is my XML and XSD files
XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns="http://www.example.org"
targetNamespace="http://www.example.org"
elementFormDefault="qualified">

<xsd:element name="empid" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
I am reading XML file, I will describe my process.
1.) File adapter>read operation ---> receive activity
2.) Transform > source(receive input variable) <--->target(Invoke input variable)
3.) File adapter > write operation ---> invoke activity
Now when I am deploying this process it is sucessfully completing and able to read the file.
when I check the audit trail receive activity shows XML data but when I check the transform it
shows empty as below, however the write activity is performed which creates a xml file but no values in the elements
transform in audit trail
<Invoke_1_Write_InputVariable>
-<part xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" name="readfile">

</readfile>

How to get file name from file adapter (Read Operation)

Hi All,
I am reading files from local location, in jca file i gave filename property =*.* ( which reads all files), and now I want to read the incoming file name inside bpel and I want to copy the file name to some variable. Is this possible?

Yes, its possible.
In your receive activity,set below property in its properties tab:
<bpelx:property name="jca.file.FileName" variable="FileName"/>
Before that make sure to create a variable "FileName" of string type.
Whatever file your file adapter will read,its name will be stored in this variable.
Hope this helps.

Karan

How to run several OS commands in file adapter ?

I can run one UNIX commands in a file receiver adapter. But could I run more than one command ? I tried to use a semicolon, but it doesn't work. Only 1st command is executed. (in UNIX, we can use semocolon to run several command in one command)

Hi
Create a batch file and in that put all the commands to be executed.
Mention this file in file adapter configuration ( CC ).
thanks

FTP command using File adapter

Hi,
When i use the file adapter in FTP mode i need to add an xtra command before sending the file.
I.ex: SITE LRECL=84 RECFM=VB WRAPRECORD
Using manual connect i do this
ftp 111.111.111.111.
User/pass
SITE LRECL=84 RECFM=VB WRAPRECORD
put c: est.txt test.txt
quit
But how do i add the xtra command? The Run OS command thing - thats before FTP is connected isn´t it?
/Jakob

If possibe, you could write the file on a file server using the NFS option of hte file adapter, and then use a simple shell script (if on UNIX) which contains your FTP commands to do the FTP part. You will specify the script name in the the 'Run OS Command After Message Processing' parameters.
I have used something very similar in the past...

Need to get file name and directory back from file adapter - WRITE

I am using the file adapter to write a file. I want to log the file name of the file we just created. Since we use a precise timestamp in the file name, I can't accurately guess.
I have an invoke in my BPEL process to the file adapter. My first try was to assign the jca.file.FileName property to a variable, but it never comes back. I looked around and saw plenty of ways to SET the file name for a write and GET the file name for a read, but no GET file name for WRITE.
Anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance!

I think I got your point... You can tell FileAdapter the filename to write, but if you don't then FileAdapter can not tell you the filename that it wrote... I think it is pretty possible Oracle didn't implement the latter, as the write operation is probably asynchronous and the filename is calculated later on...
If what you want is just log, you may achieve your requirement by increasing verbosity on Adapter logs... Have a look at the link bellow...
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15586_01/integration.1111/e10226/ad_mon.htm#CJHHBBID
Otherwise, the solution for you will be to calculate filename yourself, and that will be a little bit of reinventing the wheel... But at least you will know the filename...

Vlad

JDBC adapter trace logs

We turned on the trace in visual administration tool for JDBC adapter thro' VA>Service>Log configuration>>locations>>com>>sap>>aii>>adapter>>JDBC.
Where should I look in visual adminitration tool for the trace log for JDBC adapter?
We are using Acknowledgment=Transport in Asynchonous "SEND" step of BPM to receive acknowlegement of updating database.
It is updating database but in Tcode-SXMB_MONI, Ack Status = ? "still waiting acknowledgement"
Can someone please help me to figure out where should I look for JDBC logs and why we are not able to receive acknowlegement?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
- log on to the Visual Administrator
- start service - Log Viewer
- cluster -> server -> logs
- choose defaultTrace.trc
did you set tracing level to debug for JDBC adapter..

Receiving "Invalid char in text." error from file adapter

I'm testing a file adapter and am receiving the following error:
Invalid char in text.
The invalid character seems to be the ascii Record Separator character, Hex 1E, HTML 

Is it possible for me to modify the file adapter schema to handle this character?

The HTML description should have been this (minus space characters)
& # x a ;

How to get the name of file was read from file adapter ?
