Passing a file via File Adapter without renaming.

We have a scenario whereby we pick up a file locally using a file adapter set up as a sender in local NFS file mode, and then pass that file through PI without mapping or conversion to XML.
We would like to send the file via a file adapter set up as a receiver in FTP mode, and to use the filename that was recognised by the sending adapter. However, I cannot see a way to do this.
is this possible?
- Tony.

Hi,
The problem is, as I see it, that the File Receiver in FTP mode expects a naming convention that will not provide what er want to do.
e.g. File sender processes a file EDI00001.txt. We want to send that file via the File Receiver in FTP mode with that filename, EDI00001.txt.
Next file picked up from file sender has name EDI00002.txt. We want that sent via FTP as EDI00002.txt, etc etc.
Problem is, it seems there is no way to tell the File Receiver to use the file name that the File Sender picked up.
BR,
Tony.

CS4 Photoshop - saving on NAS storage - open file won't save without renaming it.

open file won't save without renaming it. If you try to save a file that you have adjusted in CS4 Photoshop on a networked drive, it won't save it. If you rename it, sure. If you are working on the local drive it is not a problem.
By the way, we have 2 users in house. Both on Mac systems and both are using CS4 Creative Suite. One Mac is OSX 10.6.8 - the other is Mac OSX 10.8.3. The older Mac system does not have a problem.
Is this a Mac operating system problem? would upgrading to CS6 solve the issue for our Mac OSX 10.8 ?

Sending files via File Adapter through FTP having a HTTP proxy as firewall

Dear experts,
I am having a issue trying to send a file via FTP with the File Adapter. My client has a HTTP proxy with authentification required as firewall in order to send files via FTP.
I've tried several solutions but I cannot find a way to add the proxy name, user and password in the communication channel.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Hi,
Unfortunately those changes didn't work. The adapter is not able to establish a connection within the FTP server. These are the parameters I added:
-Dhttp.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dhttp.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dhttp.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Dhttp.proxyPort=80
-Dhttp.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
-Dhttps.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dhttps.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dhttps.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Dhttps.proxyPort=80
-Dhttps.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
And just in case, we tried with these other parameters at the same time.
-Dftp.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dftp.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dftp.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Ddftp.proxyPort=80
-Dftp.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
The errors in the adapter engine's log are:
Error MP: Exception caught with cause com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: ConnectException: Socket connection timed out: <ftp ip address>

Problems opening files via 'File - Open/cmd-O' in Photoshop CC 2014 after Yosemite installation

I upgraded to Yosemite on Friday and shortly after, I noticed that when attempting to open multiple files, after I've opened a few files (it's not a set amount, sometimes happens on the 3rd file, sometimes on the 6th etc) I get the error message 'could not complete your request because of a program error' - the only way out of this is to quit Photoshop and restart which is obviously very frustrating and time consuming!
I spent some time on live chat to Adobe yesterday and we deleted settings, preferences, uninstalled, reinstalled, moved Colour settings folder to desktop but nothing worked. I have a call scheduled with Adobe to go through lots more tests at the end of the week as I've been advised this isn't a global issue but I thought I'd post on here in the meantime to see if anybody had any thoughts as to what could be causing this. After speaking to Adobe, I have since realised that even after getting this error message, I can still drag files to the PS icon and open them that way - I have just opened 20 files this way with no error message, it's just when I used the File-open/cmd O method (my usual way of working) to open files that is happens.
It was all fine before installing Yosemite and I am on the very latest CC 2014 version (this problem does not happen in the CC version incidentally, only the 2014 version - so I'm using that as a workaround for now).
I also had issues opening files in Illustrator on Friday, I was unable to open files using file - open/cmd O (nothing happened after I clicked it, but I got no error message), again, I had to drag the file to the AI icon in the dock to open it but that seems to be ok now even though I haven't changed anything with the Illustrator application - just thought I'd mention it incase it was related!
If anybody can help, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Glad it's not just me!
Interestingly, when I spoke with Apple, I tried it in a new user account and the problem went away. Apple said to speak to Adobe which I have done and after deleting settings/prefs again the problem remained. Adobe say as it's fine in a new account then it's an Apple issue not Adobe.
I did find a workaround for now though, when using file - open, set it to list view instead of column view - this fixed my problem but sadly I'm used to working in column view so it's not ideal!
I also got the same error message when trying to replace a set of brushes yesterday too. I need to go back to Apple now but just need to schedule some time to sit and troubleshoot!

Sending xml files via AS2 adapter

Hi Experts,
I have an interface which requires an IDOC to XML scenario.
This is a simple pick and drop scenario with no mapping required.
We just have to send the IDOC to the 3rd party via AS2 receiver in XML format.
Currently, the 3rd party receiver receives the file in binary format with no extensions (i.e. 9876543210123)
Although when opened via notepad, the content is in xml format
Is it possible to have the file sent as a .xml file (i.e. PO IDOC.xml)?
Please see current configuration below:
Currently, 3rd party is still receiving the file with no filename extensions.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Luis,
Thanks for your reply.
However, I am a bit confused because the thread mentions that the module configuration is for the file and JMS adapters. Also, the scenario is an AS2 to FTP interface
I want to do the filename change in the AS2 receiver channel of a IDOC to AS2 scenario.
Where exactly do I define the filename that I want to output such as "test.xml" instead of the default filename with 13 numerals?
Thanks,
Mike

PDF files won't save without renaming.

The files are not open anywhere else. I am opening the file adding a page, and trying to save. I am getting a message that I have to rename the file because it is open somewhere else. Normally it just closes and overwrites the original file. I am using CS 4.

Dynamically pass subject via mail adapter without using mail package

Hi,
We have requirement to pass the Dynamic variable as Mail subject
we can't use Mail Package as we need to capture the data from Dynamic SOAP header Data from incomming channel
Dynamic SOAP Header variable (XHeaderName1) comming from Sender SOAP channel.
Receiver side we need to capture that XHeaderName1 in Mail Adapter channel using ASMA and Variable transport binding so that value of XHeaderName1 should overwrite Subject under General/ Mail Atribute section.
Could you please let me know, how to handle this requirement using module configuration?
Also suggest the correct configuration to use ASMA and Variable transport binding.

Transferring Files via File Sharing from 10.4.11 to 10.8.5

I am trying to get all of my files and information off of my laptop and migrate them to my new iMac. I have followed the instructions in regards for file sharing. However, when I bring up the finder and click on shared, the only thing that it will do is log me in as a guest. When I try and type in the password to log me in as a registered user it tells me that the password is wrong. Unless there is another password that I am unaware of I am 100% sure that I remember the password. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Copying files via File Sharing, files get locked

Hey, Folks!
I've just begun sharing files from my Mac Pro with my wife's laptop. I have no problems dragging-and-dropping files from one computer to another, but the copied folders are locked, meaning, for example, if I put a video file into iTunes, I'm unable to change its metadata (i.e. change it from a "Home Movie" to a "Music Video"). I've tried some variations to no avail.
Suggestions?
Thanks!

So, in Airport Utility, I go to "Wireless" and then "Option", and I get a dialog box with following options:
Name of 5Ghz network, Country, radio Mode (802.11a/n - 802.11b/g/n (automatic)
and Finally Canal 2,4 GHz : Automatic
and Canal 5GHz : Automatic
Do I have to change these values ?
And after that, do I have to change something to my network preferences ?

HT201301 How do I send an audio file via file sharing to other Mac and PC users instead of email?

I have created an audio file on iTalk and want to email it to my family.The file size is 25.62 MB.- too large to email it ( limit 5MB) Would file sharing be a better solution and if so what are the steps I should take to get started?

You might try Dropbox for iPad and computer. Both are free and include 2GB free storage.

Send attachment via Receiver FILE/JMS adapter without using any Mapping.

Hi,
R/3 program creates one (encoded) text file, which I want to send via Proxy to JMS adapter without any mapping or FCC.
Note: I don't want to use File adapter to pick the file from R3 dir and then send it to JMS.
Reference: I have gone through below mentioned blog which produces the attachment in the XI payload but I am not able to write the same attachment to my XI dir using Receiver File adapter (File adapter is just for testing actual adapter will be used as Receiver JMS adapter).

Regards,
Sarvesh

> note sure why you want to complicate things here
Actually the idea was to explore the possibilities of "Proxy with attachment". And I also wanted to confirm with experts like you before going to other options. Anyway it seems it's only possible with mail adapter.
Reason for exploring above possibility: Since ABAP team has to create one text file and encode it, so we thought to call the outbound proxy in the ABAP program to send the same file as an attachment and then simply send it to JMS. Which is quite obvious thinking when you don't want to manage a share directory between R3 & XI or don't want to manage FTP user and pwd.
> i think the simplest thing is to go for a simple file to jms configuration unless you have any specific reasons for not doing so.
This we already kept in our mind as a last option in case if above thing is not possible then we can easily do it by this way.
Thanks a lot for suggestion.

Sender File Adapter not able to get file via FTP from an external system

Hi,
I have a Sender File Adapter using FTP which polls a server every 10 seconds looking for a file ".xml". The adapter will connect and pick up the waiting file, but sometimes the adapter not able to get file via FTP from an external system. The file is on the server, but despite the polling, the adapter does not pick up it. There is no return error.
The connect mode is Permanently and the transfer mode is Binary.
Can you help me?
Thanks.
T.

Hi Teresa,
does this case appears with a file size higher the others?
Personally, I do not recommend to have a polling under 1min.
10s could be too just, if the file is not small and/or if the file server is far (several kilometers) to where the Adapter Engine is, and/or this file server is beside a firewall. Do not forget also that, with previous points, you could have like a conflict, betwen the 1st polling and the 2nd polling, if in less 10s PI adapter has not enough time: to connect to the FTP server (several Km), find the file (perhaps among 100 other files in the directory), go back to the file to Adapter Engine server (several Km again), convert your file to XML message (with a complex Content Conversion), then check the XML structure, and when all that is done, return back to FTP server (several Km), to archive the source file... Well It's my understanding of a FTP exchange with FILE adapter...
If you really need a 10s polling, that's mean your have a pseudo real time interface. In that case, in my mind file should not be used! but we should use a Web service, JDBC JMS (any exchange without a physical object like a file). For me, it's a non-sens to have a file in that case.

How to process huge files using File Adapter without ESR and no FCC?

Hi All,
I came to a scenario where i need to pick the file from R/3 sys which of around 500MB and need to transport it to the Third party sys using PI 7.1 . This is just simply a pass through data i.e.., no mapping is required (no ESR). and i don't to make use of FCC or BPM
My question is can the File Adapter can pick the file which is of 500MB size?
If not then what would be best solution to do it?
Do i need to divide the file into smaller sizes say around 100MB a file each in R/3 sys and then pick those files .
can i do without dividing the files in the R/3 sys?
Thanks in advance.
Sai

Hi Bhaskar,
If you zip probably the size would come less which may increase his performance a little. But I feel SAP also dont recommend this much load with PI.
If I am in his shoes then I will do a simple FTP without using PI itself. Else will look into other options. Thats my two cents.
Hope this alexs blog will give an idea to Sai:

Renaming a File to File without Mapping

Hi All,
I am having a scenario where there is a text file transfer without any conversion i.e. basically a file to file scenario with no mapping. The only requirement is to rename source file which has .csv extn to .dat. For instance if the sender file is XYZ.csv, the file at the receiver side should be XYZ.dat.
As there is no mapping, I cannot use Dynamic Configuration UDF in mapping. One other option is to write an adapter module which seems too bulky for this small requirement. So as of now I am looking at any option which I can use without having to create IR objects or do text ->XML -> text conversion.
I hope experts here can help in resolving the current problem and/or give some pointers
Best Regards,
Pratik

> OS Command in File Receiver Channel: mv %f `basename %f .csv`.dat
I think you should use the full path address, the same as you used for the folder.
You can also use an adapter module, it is just a couple of lines:
public ModuleData process(ModuleContext moduleContext, ModuleData inputModuleData)
                      throws ModuleException{
     try {
        Message msg = (Message) inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
        Payload payload = msg.getDocument();
        String fileName = msg.getMessageProperty("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
        // do something with the filename
        msg.setMessageProperty("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName", fileName);
        inputModuleData.setPrincipalData(msg);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new ModuleException(e);
    return inputModuleData;
