Polling File Adapter (Sender) with nfs

Hello,
please anybody knows how to configure kommunication channel like connection data to server...
Thanks in advance
Frank

Poll Interval (secs)
Number of seconds that the adapter must wait if no files are found for processing.
Poll Interval (msecs)
Additional waiting time in milliseconds.
If you set Poll Interval (secs) to null, processing times will be short and close to real time.
If you set Poll Interval (secs) and Poll Interval (msecs) to null, the adapter is only called once.
Retry Interval (secs)
Specify the number of seconds that the adapter is to wait before a file processed with errors is processed again.
If the value is set to null, then the adapter is canceled if an error occurs, even if a value greater than null is specified for Poll Interval (secs).
If you do not enter a value, the value from Poll Interval (secs) is used.

Polling by file adapter (sender) with FIFO functionality

Hi,
here are one question:
What happen if, for example, the sender system generates multiple files with the same timestamp (HH:MM:SS), or the file adapter on XI is stopped for a moment, and then, when activated, in the source directory (polling directory) there are many files? How can XI handle the correct sequence of messages? Is this impossible. How XI poll on a file (sender) - what is the logic? The files should be polled by FIFO.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Frank

Hi,
There is a logic called EOIO. Its exactly once in Order (EOIO). It takes care of all these iisues. Also XI gurantees the delivery of files.

Cannot process a Fixed Field Length file using the File Adapter (Sender)

Hi -
I have checked throughout these posts and blogs but I still have not been able to find a solution to my issue. When using the File Adapter (Sender) I get a Conversion initialization failed with "xml.keyfieldName", no value found. Why would I require a key field when I am using fixed field lenghts? The file is comprised of 2 structures - 1 header and multiple details (see below). There are no key fields in the flat file that I would be able to use. Any suggestions?

Hi,
you can use the module from which u can convert your structure to
H011000390 Customer Americas 20080605164317 000000000000000800000008000000000016000000

D12345678 100501 100501 Supplier 2 0000000000052000002008042100
Please note the extra H,D in the struture added by the module.
You can then use them as your key fieldValues.. The module should be deployed in Visual Admin and then can be used in the Module tab of your adapter CC
While writing the content conversion after that please dont forget about the added new characters
Please note also that i can find that the word supplier kept repeating in all the Dtachkp records
Please use that
Also if you feel that the field is of 13 characters and that would cause a problem dont worry... create a dummy field eg split tht 13 to two fields and use the common one as key field Value and identifier... as i see in ure case its like 500 Supplier , 502 Supplier . u can split the first 4 char and the remaing 9 char are key field value.
try this out

Sender file Adapter, problem with proxy authentication

HI all,
i'm having some problems with the following scenario, i need to configure a sender file adapter which connects to a FTP server. To connect this FTP server i need to set a proxy (and so a username and a password), and i don't know how to do.
From note 821267 seems that the proxy is not supported for an FTP adapter, but the are some workaround like the ones described in the following link
Re: Proxy server inFTP adapter
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=57137
They don't work in my case as i need to se two username (the one for proxy and the one for the ftp server) and i cannot force the proxy use for all XI applications.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot
Aldo

Proxy is necessary to exit the customer local intranet. It's not possible to go outside network without going through the proxy server.
I cannot set the proxy server in file adapter as it's not supported like described in SAp note, a possible workarounf is to force the proxy server in the J2ee stack but in this way all PI calls would use that proxy..

Sender File Adapter - Problem with field separator

Hi,
I want to upload a CSV file into XI.
The file contains a text part which uses from time to time quotation marks like this:
SD,575757,383838,N/A,XYZ,"This is a text part",7676
But besides there are lines like this:
SD,575757,777722,N/A,XDE,FREETEXT,7575
Has anyone any idea how to configure the file adapter to get it recognize the quotation marks not as field separator?
I've already tried the enclosureSign parameters but that leads to an total unconverted line.
Is it maybe possible to customize two field separators like this:
Structure.fieldSeparator - ,"
Thanks for any answer,
Christina

No, it doesn't work.
I've specified now:
Structure.fieldSeparator        ,
Structure.enclosureSign         "
Structure.enclosureSignEscape   ""
Every line without quotation marks is converted fine. Lines with quotation marks stay like in the original CSV file and the whole line is put into one XML tag (still comma separated).
Also the parameter fieldContentFormatting - nothing doesn't make a difference.
Other ideas?

Setting the File Adapter Sender Source Directory...

Good morning, Experts
We have 2 sender file adapter communication channels in XI 7.0. Source directories for each are as follows:
Channel A - //757spgmr16-xp.sauder.com/SAP
Channel B - //devqas.sauder.com/ROOTBIN
Channel A works. Channel B does not. It returns "Configured source directory '//devqas.sauder.com/ROOTBIN' does not exist". When I remote into the XI box as the administrator I can open a Windows Explorer window and can see both of these source folders.
What user ID is used to access the NFS for the communication channel???
Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chad

Is the integration engine running in a service on the XI server??? There are a number of SAP labelled services. Some are started with the log on of "Local system", some with the administrator account and then some with an ID of "SAPServicePID".
My guess here is that possibly this SAPServicePID user is running the integration engine and does not have permissions to the source directory??? Could this be the case???
Can somebody tell me the name of the service for the integration???

Reading severl files in file adapter sender

Hi all,
I need to read several files and perform checks on there attributes,
like name and date of creation.
and only if the checks are o.k i need to transfer them to, otherwise i need to send an email reporting the error.
I saw in the sender file adapter an option of reading several files, how does it work, how can i perform the checks.
I thing that i can also perform this task using BPM, but from whet I understand it can be problematic when reading big files.
Thanks,
Naama

>>NFS
You are going to pick the files of same types or different types?
If it is of same type: Use below informtion.
file.sourceFileName=<filename>
Specify the name of the file that you want to process.
The name can contain a placeholder (*) at any point, so as to be able to select a list of files for processing.
The following are valid examples for filename:
myFile.txt
my*.txt
*.txt

Names that comprise more than two parts are also permitted.
If the files are of different types the use this approach:

File Adapter - Sender/Receiver

We may have scenario where XI will be using File adapter to deliver messages to Application X in the landscape.
As part of Load balancing of Application X, there are multiple servers running. Say, If Iam delivering the file to one location, If that server is down I should send files to different location. How can I achive that ?

Hi ST,
I guess your 10 receivers are physically different. So they will have different IPs.
I do not know if you can adress a receiver dynamic. As far as I know it is not possible.
Maybe one solution is to write your own adapter.
On the other hand, thinking about a webService that pings the receiver systems and gives a message back to XI, which servers are online.
Than first call the WebService. In BPM you receive a list/ a message which servers are online. In a fork you could decide with a condition, which branch to use.
Sorry, that I cant give you a better solution.

File adapter (sender) module throws exception, but adapter proceeds again

Hello dear reader,
I wrote a module that converts a flat file into XI-XML and tested it within the file adapter. It works fine so far. But if I force the module to throw an exception to handle an erroneous flat file, the file adapter tries to proceed the erroneous file again and again. Not very nice, isn´t it?
Has anybody an idea, how to configure the file adapter to stop the processing of an erroneous file?
Thank you in advance
Yours
Frank Waskow

Hello Satish,
the weblog doesn´t describe my problem correctly. Let me show you the Audit Log from the Messeage Display Tool of the Adapter Engine:

It seems to me that the Adapter gets the error of the module, but it is not handled as an error like shown in the blog <a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/11/29/xi-how-to-re-process-failed-xi-messages-automatically:///people/sap.user72/blog/2005/11/29/xi-how-to-re-process-failed-xi-messages-automatically.
The adapter tries to proceed the same file again and again, till I delete it from the source directory.
Any more idea?

File Adapter - Sender Problem

Hi,
While implementing a file to file interface I am facing problem in Integration Engine. Data is not passing to Integration engine, so it is not able to reach receiver.

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?
Thanks,
Soorya

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.
> What is the default path where it is actually runs this OS command?

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

I hope it helps.

No suitable sender agreement found - File / Adapter, Sender FTP

Hi SDN Friends,
Is my first time in PI with FTP / FILE ( really I'm newbie in PI - but 2 years in ABAP ).
I have configurated my communication channel with and FILE/ADAPTER on a Sender FTP...
I have Tried with 2 FTP, one in my PC, and one Public... but in both cases, it's doesn't works... monitoring my communication channel, I get the No suitable sender agreement found ERROR....
I thought... may be PI has not access to the FTP's servers, so run in SAP PI server, an ABAP program trx se38, program: RSFTP002 and with this, I could connect to the FTP... it works perfectly.
so I don't understand... what I'm doing bad?
Any Help?
regards every body!

u r welcome...2 yrs back i am newbie
when ever we make changes after an error, sometimes XI will not take the changes in cache automatically; uses old one. solution for this is complete Cache refresh.
welcome to Integration World have fun....

File adapter sends return message to SOAP adapter

Hi,
I have managed to send a message using a SOAP sender adapter to a file using the file adapter. The respective message is written to a file. Though both adapters are configured to work in an asynchronous way, the file adapter seems to try to return as message. This results in an error message: "Das Interface-Mapping ... ist nicht im Laufzeit-Cache vorhanden". I have updated and checked the runtime cache. The respective mapping program is available and working, since the file adapter writes the send date to the file. So why this message?
Kind regards,
Heiko

The file adapter replies the sent message, when it is addressed in sync mode.
Set in the SOAP sender channel the Quality-of-Service to Exactly-Once to avoid this behavior.
Regards
Stefan
