Path in File Adapter Configuration [XI 3.0]

Hi,
when providing a relative path in the file adapter, which subdirectory will be used as parent directory?
Furthermore, how can I address a network file system on a unix based host. Is it similar to
hostname\dirfoo\dirbar\... like in a Windows environment?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
The path provided to the File adapter should be the path on the sender/receiver system. For example, if your file is written to d:/usr/sap/trans/tmp this is the detail you should be providing to the file adapter.
Note the use of '/' instead of backslash '\' used in the windows environment.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards
Colin.

Hi Prabhat,
take a look at this weblog:
/people/jayakrishnan.nair/blog/2005/06/28/dynamic-file-namexslt-mapping-with-java-enhancement-using-xi-30-sp12-part-ii
you have to specify variable substitution
(in the file adapter)
and give the path to the store name (in the variable sustitution table)
you <b>file name schema</b> (from the file communication channel can look like this)
%storename%_date_masterdataname.xml

File adapter configuration parameter for "hexadecimal conversion"

(File adapter for XI 2.0)
Does anybody know the exact File adapter configuration parameters for reading a file with hexadecimal control characters as seperators. My file has
3 types of seperators - i.e "2F", "05" & "0D2F"
Eg: xml.fieldSeparator= "2F"
When I specify this the file is getting split into fields
at all the seperators in the file. I guess I am not using the right format in my defination ?
Dorai

Is there any special format for reading a file containing hexadecimal control characters?
The file to be processed has hexadecimal separators:
Field Delimiter : '09' or '05'
End of record delimiter: '0A' or '25'
End of Table delimiter : '07' or '2F'
Initially i would like to read the file into XI as it is i.e without any split by using "xml.fieldFixedLengths= "
However, everytime I process the file(with hexadecimal contol characters), I have noticed that my file is getting split, even when I did not specify anything for field separator(i.e when i used fixed field length).
Thanks,
Dorai

How to automate File Adapter Configuration

I am configuring a File Adapter manually then it generates WSDL file and jca files which contains File Adapter configuration. I have XSd file through the XSD can I generate these files (WSDL & jca)?

I have XSd file through the XSD can I generate these files (WSDL & jca)?No. Only adapter wizard should generate these files. Can you let us know more about your use case and tools you are working with?

Physical Path in File Adapter for Windows Server

Hi There,
I am trying to read a file from a directory on a windows server and write it to the same server in a different directory.
In the file adapter I gave the value for physical path as below:
"\\10.xx.34.xxx\Share\input".
However I am getting below message in the debug:
"Value specified for input Physical/Logical Directory is not a directory or is not readable."
Hence my question is what should be the value in the physical path for windows server.
Thanks in Advance

Thanks for your reply again.
Actually they are not on the same file system.
I have successfully used FTP Adapter to connect to a UNIX server.
However is it possible to use FTP Adapter for Windows Server. If so how should be the corresponding JNDI defined.
I am getting below error when I use FTP Adapter for Windows Server:
Unable to send file to server. [Caused by: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation.]
; nested exception is:
ORABPEL-11429
Error sending file to FTP Server.
Unable to send file to server. [Caused by: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation.]
Please ensure 1. Specified remote output Dir has write permission 2. Output filename has not exceeded the max chararters allowed by the OS and 3. Remote File System has enough space.
Please Advise.
Thanks

Need help in file adapter configuration

Hi,
i am working on sps13 . while i am configuring the file adapter for sender communication channel i got a compulsary field "Queue Name" in processing
parameters . what should i make entry in that field ? plz....do reply.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Lakhman ,
The parameter QualityOfService specifies how the Integration Engine should process a message. The following values are permitted:
1)BE(Best Effort: synchronous processing). If QualityOfService is BE, the client is sent the final status for the processing.
2)EO(Exactly Once: asynchronous processing with guaranteed execution exactly once). If QualityOfService is EO,processing occurs asynchronously and the client only recieves a confirmation of reciept with HTTP status '200'.
3)EOIO(Exactly Once in Order: asynchronous processing using queues, that is, guaranteed execution exactly once and maintaining the sequence of successive messages). If QualityOfService is EOIO,processing occurs asynchronously and the client only recieves a confirmation of reciept with HTTP status '200'.
Since u had choosen EOIO ,You must also define a queue name for EOIO:
XI.QueueId=<QueueName>
This queue name is used in the Integration Engine to process messages in the same sequence that they arrived in.
This QueueName can consist of a maximum of 16 characters. If the first 8 characters contain 'SAP_ALE_', these r removed since this value is reserved by SAP and used internally.
If a value is not specified for QualityOfService , the default value 'BE' is used.

SP9 on PCK - file adapter configuration or Messaging System Test

Hi,
I have upgraded my XI 3.0 PCK from SP1 to SP9. This is fine but now I do not have the Messaging System Test JSP
(I could not install the old one).So I would like to
configure the file adapter to send to my adapter some outbound messages.
I have tried configuring the file adapter as
I do on full XI server but the file adpater on PCK
just doesn't want to recognize the binding. No error logs, nothing. Any ideas what could be wrong ?
Sincerely,
Maxim Naidenov

The configuration of the PCK is different to the XI.
You need:
Communication Channel:
-> for Sender (File)
-> for Receiver (XI) (Here you enter the URL of the XI)
sender agreement (matching sender channel and interface)
receiver agreement (matching receiver channel and interface)
As the XI needs the same configuration for partner and service as the PCK, you should create two partners for PCK and XI and assign the sender channel to the service belonging to the partner PCK and the receiver channel to the service belonging to the partner XI.
I hope that helps
Stefan

Reciever file adapter configuration for Deep structure

Hi Experts,
I have a idoc to file scenario in which i used a data type for file in below format:
DT_Test
-->Recordset(0.unbounded)
>E21DPU1(0.unbounded)
>field1
>field2
>E21DPU5(0.unbounded)
>filed 3
>filed 4
>E21DP03(0.unbounded)
>filed 5
>filed 6
Here DT_test is datatype name,Recordset is a structure name which contain E21DPU1, E21DPU5,E21DPO3 stucture inside it.Now,E21DPU5 and E21DPO3 structures are under E21DPU1.
I am confused in creating content conversion parameters i.e what we have to mention in Recordset Stucture .
I used E21DPU1,,E21DPU5,,E21DP03,* .should it work for deep structure.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi,
file adapter does not handle 2 level deep structures
the easiest way to do it now is to go for abap or java mapping
and create a line for each of the output lines and handle this in the file adapter
so like <line> </line>
<line>E21DPU1(0.unbounded) with fields </line>
<line>E21DPU5(0.unbounded) with fields </line>
<line> etc. </line>

Dynamic File adapter configuration

Hi All,
Is it possible in XI give source directory dynamically?
If I move my XI development objects into quality or production, there would not be the same directories available. So we need to modify the source directory name again?
Could anyone clarify these issues?
Thanks,
Venu.

Hi Venu..
It's possible to give source directory a dynamic name..
Just type %directoryname% in the source path..
and in the adapter paramaters (variable substution) access the value dynamically..
Ex:
variable
directoryname
Refernce:
payload:messagetype,level,.........etc

Enable FTPS, SSL, File Adapter, Configuration, Certificates

Hi All,
   Right now I have some file to file (FTP_XI_FTP)scenarios that are working fine. With SP14 we got a option to use FTPS(FTP over SSL).
1. Can any one tell me the exact steps we need to follow to use FTPS?
2. What is the config we need to do in RZ10.
3. What is the confing we need to do in the Visual admin?
4. What are all the steps we need to do with the ftp server.
4. How to test the configuration.
   1. We are on sp14/XI3.0/kernal640/Solaris/oracle
   2. Installed SAP Cryptographic Software.
   3. Right now i could be able to connect to FTP server at a secure port 32, using PUTTY software.
Thank you
