//172.27.34.250/sender
for acessing sender folder in the C:
but the file is not picked
could u plz help me out of this

HI,
Clarify is it on your Xi server or remote server.
as explained above if it is XI server , the use the folder name with shard path.
else if it is remote server then use FTP instead of NFS.
see the below links

How to configure File Adapter along with OS command option

Hello,
I want to configure a scenario using File Adapter with OS command option.
How to use that option in channel configuration of File Adapter.
What is the default path where it is actually runs this OS command?

There are two ways to use the Os command in the file adapter.
Lets talk about the sender File Adapter.
First: Run operative system Before Message Processing
Whenever any operation needs to be performed uppon the source file Just before XI picks it up.
e.g. Calculate any hash code, backup the file to a given location, create a log at os level, etc...
... After Message Processing
After Xi has processed the message, you can trigger a new os level command:
e.g. Trigger a mail, check if the archiving was successful, etc.

Theres no default path, you assign the desired path in the Comm Channel configuration.

I hope it helps.

What does this command do? "$HOME/path/to/the/Folder/"

Hi,
What does the following command do?
$HOME/path/to/the/Folder/TEMP
If the TEMP file does not exist, will it create a new TEMP folder?
How can I check whether a "new TEMP folder" is created?
Thanks in advance.
Ed

So "$HOME/path/to/the/Folder/.DS_Store" will fill in the "path" that the .DS_Store is stored?
You fill in the path. That is to say, we do not know the folder you are interested in. And since there are thousands of folders (hundreds of thousand) on the Mac, the computer will not fill it in either. ONLY "You" know where the folder you are interested in lives. So you replace "path/to/the/Folder" with the correct information. Until then "path/to/the/Folder" is a place holder, and a way for me to give you the general idea of how to specify the path, without my actually knowing where the desired folder lives.
You build a path by stringing folder names together, separated by a forward slash / and if there are any spaces or punctuation characters in the folder names, you protect the full path name by enclosing it in quotes, 'stuff to protect goes in here'.
The option is to get out of the Terminal and forget it ever existed. 99.9999999% of Mac usage does not need the Terminal, and generally it is ancient programmers that grew up when 80 column punched cards were how you communicated with computers. That generation thinks a Terminal is advanced technology, and having noticed that the computer industry has moved on (and yes, I am one of them, and I actually make my living still using terminal emulators, but the rest of the world has moved on).
BTW, is it right that the "." will make the file "hidden"?
A file with a leading period in its name is a long standing convention from back in the '70's on Unix platforms that by default the 'ls' (list) command would not display files that started with a leading period unless' ls -a' was used. This was a way to put config files in a users home directory, but not clutter up the 'ls' output with things most users did not care about on a day-to-day basis. Over time, it was adapted as a way to hid files. The Mac "Finder" took up treating files with leading periods as hidden files.
The Mac "Finder" has other ways to indicating a file should be hidden via a "hidden" file attribute, which is used to hide standard system folders that users should not be playing with, such as the operating system files. Most Mac users never see them and do not care.
Can I check whether the directory or file exist from the Finder -> Mac HD or Finder -> Home?
If the file or folder does not have a leading period or the above mentioned hidden file attribute, the Finder can display, if you can navigate to the file or folder. Finder -> Go -> "Go to Folder..." can get you anywhere, assuming you can enter the /path/to/where/you/want/to/go/notation, or at least the beginning to get you started. Just entering / all by itself will put you at the top of the file system (called the root directory).
However, if a file or folder is hidden, the Finder will not display it, unless you play games with Finder hidden features that takes you back to Terminal commands and/or 3rd party utilities that can enable the Finder show all files mode.
NOTE: If you go exploring outside your home folder, please do not modify or delete things, or you could turn your Mac into a "Door Stop". A "Pretty", but very expensive "Door Stop".

Thanks Barney, I tried that but all that comes up in Spotlight are the log files that show the file paths! I don't know how Steam works. Are all the files held by Steam on their server perhaps?

Problem in reading the JDK1.4Logger configuration file from java prog

I have written a java program and want to log the messages in a log file , I'm using commons logging with JDK1.4logger as logging subsystem .
I am facing the problem in reading the JDK1.4Logger configuration file which is commons-logging .properties file from my java program as a result my log messages are appearing directly on the screen while I try to run program , during compilation no error is shown . I have tried to set java.util.logging.config.file ="Path of my commons-logging .properties file " by setting system properties also.
Please suggest the appropriate solution for this .

Some webservers won't recognise the resource bundle provided in message-resources
In that case, you need to specify that resource bundle information in web.xml at the time of specifying the action servlet like this. Check for the init-param application.
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>application</param-name>
      <param-value>resource.ApplicationResource</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>config</param-name>
      <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>debug</param-name>
      <param-value>2</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>detail</param-name>
      <param-value>2</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>validate</param-name>
      <param-value>true</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>In this, the drawback is, you can not specify the key for your resource bundle. In the JSP, you have to access the property like this.
<bean:message key="label.fName"/>

Can we control the triggering of sender file adapter

Hi,
Can we control the tiggering of Sender file adapter with option of Run OS command before message processing
This option is available in Sender communication channel, what are the limitations of this option?
My actual requirement is to see the target folder whether it is empty or not, if empty then I can trigger the interface.
For this I want to write shell script whihc execute at OS level to check whether the target is empty or not, But the constraint is will this can control the triggering of sender adapter.

Hi Sekhar,
I guess this can help you control the file pick up.
If your shell script works well then using the same you can modify the filename or its extension if the target folder is empty.
Say in the sender file adapter you set the source-filename as "inbound_*.ready". Now when originally the source file is dropped into the source folder (by any other process) let it be named as "inbound_001.pending" and your script will change the file name to "inbound_001.ready" if the target directory is empty. I dont think you need to use the pre processing OS command for this.
Does it make any sense?
Regards,
Suddha

Is there a way to automatically backup the Airport Extreme Configuration file (.baseconfig)?

Is there a way to automatically backup the Airport Extreme Configuration file (.baseconfig).
I know (in hindsight) that I can manually export it from the Airport Utility, but ideally I would like to include it in my Time Machine backup. I had a situation where my Airport Extreme (3rd generation) just stopped working (no lights, no power). I had not exported the config file. I bought a new Airport Extreme (5th generation) and had to manually configure the new router.
Thanks

One option would be to use Automator and record the actions to run the AirPort Utility; save the configuration file to the desktop (or any other location you want), and then, close the utility. You can then either make this a part of your login startup programs. Time Machine then should be able to make backups.

Why does the folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements" open automatically when I start my PC?

Why does the folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements" open automatically when I start my PC? How do I adjust settings to stop this from happening?

Hi,
This folder is probably treated as a program to run at startup.
So you will have to look at the places where such programs are referenced.
For instance, you may have a shortcut to that folder in your Start Menu > Startup.
Or it may be in the Registry.
Click on Start > Execute, the type msconfig and click OK.
This will show you in the Startup tab all the programs launched at startup.

CONFIGURE FILE ADAPTER ,get files one by one.

HI, I have cinfigure one system of FILE ADAPTER TO JDBC ADAPTER, is working OK, but I need to Know how configure The FIle adapter to get files one by one from the folder , I have the channel configure between 30 seconds, but when come to look for the files has them all ... I need to get one by one the files.
Help me... RGRDS.

Hi ,
What is the operating system of your PI server sytem? If its unix/linux you can achieve this using shell scripts, for windows systems you need batch files. The script/batch file would run in background continuously. It will check how many files are present in a directory (say xyz) . Then one by one transfer the files to directory(say abc) from where PI picks up files at regular interval. you need to use "sleep()" command in script so that the script puts files after some time interval say 90 seconds. The polling interval of comm channel in PI should be set less than sleep time interval of the script.In file sender adpater configuration please set the Processing Parameters -> Processing Mode-> Delete/archive. The script before putting a file in "abc " checks presence of any files. If there are some files it goes to sleep mode for few seconds and continues checking unless "abc" is empty. Then the script moves(as we do cut and paste in windows) file in "abc" directory.

Archiving file in different folder in sender file adapter

Hi,
I have a requirement in witch i have to pick 7 different file from seven different folder.
for this I am using advance selection tab and defining all the other folder path.
but my problem is I have to archive the different file in different folder .
For exm..
/folder1/file1.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder1/file1.txt
/folder2/file2.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder2/file2.txt
/folder3/file3.txt need to be archive in /archive_filder3/file3.txt
can any one tell me that how to define the dynamic archive folder path??.
regards,
Navneet

Hi Navneet
In File Access parameters --> Target Directory
Use this type of Directory name
\XIDEV_STORES\%store%\sapoutbound
here %store% will be changed accordingly
e.g. if file will come for store 001 then this %Store% will be replaced by 001 and file will be placed in this 001 folder and if file will come for store 002 then this %Store% will be replaced by 002 and file will be placed in this 002 folder over FTP.
For to achieve this Go to Advanced tab
For Variable Substitution check mark Enable
Now speciofy the parameter values for Variable Name and Reference
Under Vriable name specify = store
Under Reference specify = payload:WP_PLU02,1,IDOC,1,EDI_DC40,1,RCVPRN,1 -
You have to give full path name here that where this store variable is located into IDOC.
Hope this example will help you

How to get the filename from J2SE File adapter

In our project scenario , we are using J2EE and J2SE engine both .J2EE for mapping and J2SE for Deliveying the message .
In one senario, routing will be based on the filename .
J2SE Sender File adapter --- XI Adapter --- XI pipe line
So the File reaching to XI pipelane via J2SE File adapter--> XI adapter.
When we are using the dynamic configurator in the XI to get the filename
we are not able to get the file name becasue it is coming to XI via
XI adapter.
How to get the filename ????Hope I am clear about the problem.

Unable to configure file adapter using FCC for Multilevel hierarchy

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help me in configuring the Receiver file adapter with FCC for the structure given below
<Root>
<Level1>
     <Ele1>
     <Ele2>
     <Level2>
            <Ele2_1>
            <Ele2_2>
            <Level2a>
                    <Ele2a_1>
                    <Ele2a_2>
            </Level2a>
     </Level2>
</Level1>

Hi dineshmale,
I have do this Multilevel hierarchy before. FCC can directly configure this scenario. But I don't know you output format. What my format shown below(here i use '#' instead of space):
Level1_Field1##Level1_Field2##Level1_Field3##Level2_Field1##Level2_Field2##Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#################################################################Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#######################################Level2_Field1##Level2_Field2##Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#################################################################Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
Level1_Field1##Level1_Field2##Level1_Field3##Level2_Field1##Level2_Field2##Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#################################################################Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#######################################Level2_Field1##Level2_Field2##Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#################################################################Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
#################################################################Level3_Field1##Level1_Field2
FCC Parameter:
Recordset Structure: Level1,Level2,Level3
Level1.fieldSeparator = (2 spaces)
Level2.beginSeparator = (some spaces according to the length of the fields in Level1)
Level2.fieldSeparator = (2 spaces)
Level3.beginSeparator = (some spaces according to the length of the fields in Level1and Level2)
Level3.fieldSeparator = (2 spaces)
Level3.endSeparator = \n
There are some points:
1. the endSeparator for Level1 and Level2 doesn't work.
2. the first begin separator in Level2 and Level3 doesn't work.
3. The last field of super node and the first field of child node is separated by the (child).fieldSeparator.
4. ....
What's more, I have write a blog of FCC For Hierarchical Structure in Receiver Channel just now. So it need two days for Approval. Let me know for any issues.

Getting path of parent folder of a file during a workflow execution

How can I get the parent folder/directory of a file during the execution of a workflow? I cant't find any actions i Automator that will give me this.
I want to make a general applicable automated workflow. The path can not be hardcoded in the workflow as different files and folders will be worked on each time the workflow is run.
The input to the workflow is a file or list of files. I want to be able to retrieve the path of the parent folder of these files at runtime.
Will I have to do this through AppleScript? If so, then how?
(in case you have seen my first post on this; it seems I wasn't specific enough so people didn't understand what I want to do. Therefore this second post. Sorry for the iconvenience)

Hi anilsen!
If all selected files are within the same folder, it would be like this:
For example:
• Get Specified/Selected Finder Objects
• Run AppleScript
on run {input, parameters}
tell application "Finder"
set output to (container of item 1 of input) as alias
end tell
return output
end run
