Path in application Server

I have one form hosted on Application Server with the statement
host('exp web/web@oracle-server tables = (web_raw_material) file=C:\WEB_BACKUP\web_'||to_char(sysdate,'DDMMYYYYHHMI'), no_screen);
the command executed fine on my local machine while testing by returing me a file on c:\web_backup
but putting that file in application server i donot get any file on either AS C drive my C drive Oracle DB C drive ???

So i cannot use this form as i use other forms from AS (FROM CLIENTS MACHINE)You should be able to. My suggestion was just to "test" the command from a command-shell on the application-server to see if it works when you start the command "outside" forms.

Convert file path in application server as link

How can we convert file path in application server as link to send email.
Thanks
Suresh

Your app server folders have a mappable location on your network, e.g,
server\path\filename. Use an HTML anchor tag and build the link with code. You'd be better off storing files on a file server (write to a mapped location from the app server) and link to there (same process).

How to find a path in Application server?

Hi,
I have a reqirement that i need to download the original document which is attached in the DIR links for each line item in the PO.
Say for Eg. user is uploading the original document in CV03n.
Through program i have to download it and save it in local desktop.
But as per my concern when user uploads that document in CV03N, it should get updated in application server.
I wants to know how can i find that path through the document got updated in AL11.
Please let me know if you have any idea on this.
Also please let me know if my question is not clear.
Regards,
Prabu

Hi Prabu,
It depends on how DMS is implemented in your place.
If DMS is implemented along with CONTENT SERVER, then the actual document uploaded is stored in CONTENT SERVER and only a link is saved in SAP DB and whenever you refer to this link the image is being retrieved and displayed.
If you dont have content server then the uploaded documents are stored in your application server only. Generally the big companies which implement DMS do have a content server otherwise DB size will grow enormously in no time.
Once you check out the basics of ur requirement, then search through FM's available related to DMS.
Hope this answer helps.

File path for application server file

Hi All,
             I have a file 'abc.doc' stored on the application sever.
            I want to crate a document using the BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE and store this file
            What is the file path that I need to pass into the bapi.
Please help
Warm Regards
Sunil Kumar.

Hello Sunil
You are right. That's the file path you should specify. It looks like your application server is running on UNIX platform. You can use transaction AL11 to locate your file and specify the file path in normal unix format. If this doesnt work, you can try prefixing your file path with "file:// ".
Cheers

Report Path in Application Server

Can we have multiple paths for .rfd files in Application server 9ias? Actually we have two separate applications. We wanted to keep .rdf files in separate folders on app server. Is there a way when we run one application, it should check rdf files from one folder and for second application, check from second folder.
Thanks

Hi,
This is possible in Reports9i patch 1 onwards. You can use a feature called Dynamic Environment Switching. You can define 2 environments in the Reports Server Config file (each with a different REPORTS_PATH). At runtime, you have to specify the ID that identifies your environment. Pl see Patch 1 (or later) release notes:

Naming Convention for path in Application Server

Hello Guru's,
I asked my basis team to create flat file source system. he asked me " what path to follow, any sub directories"?.
they are asking me naming convention for a path in App server to create i think ? usually what will be the naming convention for path.
please help me
Thanks,
Prashanth

Hi,
Create flatfile source system is no need path and sub directory on app server. You can create yourself go TCODE RSA1>Source system>file-->create.
path and sub directory only need if you want to load data from flatfile which is stored in application server. This will be determined in extraction tab of your datasource and infopackage.
Hope this helps.

Configuring Library Path in Application Server Control

Hello Everyone,
I am using :
1. HP UX B.11.23 64 bit OS
2. Application server 10.1.3.1
3. 64-bit JVM (JRE 1.5.0_03)
I am facing a problem with the connection pools in 10g EM Application Server Control. Initially the connection pool used JDBC thin client. I was asked to implement OCI client instead(Performance enhancement). So, in the existing connection pool only i changed the URL to jdbc.oracle.oci@FCC where FCC is the SID. After this when i went to test connection it says '$ORACLE_HOME/lib/libocijdbc10.so' is not a valid module. Bad magic number.
After some searching n analysis i found out that instead of picking up from $ORACLE_HOME/lib it should pick from $ORACLE_HOME/lib32 as the ORACLE version is 32-BIT. But i dont know how to configure the same using ASC. I had set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and SHLIB_PATH in HP-UX box as well but it didnt help.
Please suggest or let me know if you need any other information.

Hi,
Where did you set the parameters LD_LIBRARY_PATH and SHLIB_PATH?

Soumyajit

Want to know the file path for application server in upload program

Iam doing upload program(i,e)uploading from application server,iam getting run time error while executing the following piece of code
"OPEN DATASET '/usr/sap/SPE/DVEBMGS00/work/ZPSPAR35_PERS_UP.txt' FOR OUTPUT
 IN TEXT MODE
 ENCODING DEFAULT."
if the above code is wrong can u mention the correct one.

hi,
Note: 699267
Symptom
a) When downloading to the application server a short dump occurs with the error 'UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE'.
b) When downloading to a presentation server from an SAP system running on Unicode, only half the data is actually transferred to the downloaded file.
or
*)When downloading from an SAP system running on an application server with an EBCDIC-type code page, an incorrect code '0A' is written for the LINE FEED character

Pre-requisite
a) The output file is opened 'in text mode' which does not allow to write non-character-like structures to the file via the TRANSFER command.
b) The file is downloaded in the internal representation which uses two bytes per character in a Unicode system. The number of bytes to download is determined from the number of characters in the SAP system, however.
or
*)The code of the LINE FEED character is incorrectly programmed.

Solution:
You need to put some support packs attached with this note. For that you definitely need to ask YOUR FRIENDS WHO HAVE AN S-USER id at your WORK PLACE.
Note: 879598
Reason and Prerequisites
The file is downloaded in the internal representation which uses two bytes per character in a Unicode system. The number of bytes to download is determined from the number of characters in the SAP system. Hence when the download happens the data has to be converted to the required format.
Solution
Apply the corresponding support package or manually implement the changes described in the correction instructions.
Hope this helps.
Regards
ak.

Deleting file from application server

Delete from application server

Hi all,
How to delete file from application server. There is any function module for that.
I do not wanted to do it through program. Just manually we have to do it.
regards,
John

Hi,
Try DELETE DATASET <dataset name> .
or use FM EPS_DELETE_FILE
ie;
You can use DELETE DATASET with target path.
Use statement
delete dataset '\tmp\file.txt'.
\tmp\file.txt is the file path on application server which you want to delete.
Reward points if found helpful..
