Problem in file adapter @ receiver end

Hi ,
I am using file adapter @ receiver end using content conversion.
Using field separator as 'nl'.
When i open file in Hex mode it's showing the field separator as 2 Cariage returns(CR) & 1 line feed(LF).
But the requirement is only 1 CR n 1 LF .
Appriciate ur help..
Regards,
Kishore

Hi
I tried giving like this,
Datarow.fieldFixedLengths : 15,15,15,15,10,10,10,10
Datarow.endSeparator : '0x0A' or '0x0D'
but da result is same...2 CR n 1 LF..
even if i dont give endseparator then also same thing is happening..

Hi Kishore,
Try using fieldseparator directly, instead of working around with fixedFieldlength.

Did I miss anything.. any idea whats going wrong?
Thanks
Deepthi

Hi Deepthi,
Mention the occurrence of header in Recordset
You specify like this:
Recordset: Header, *
Header.fieldSeparator : u2018Field Separatoru2019
-->For FCC on Receiver side you donu2019t have to mention the field names.
-->The u2018endSeparatoru2019 parameter needs to given for substructure only

A problem with the File adapter receiver

Hi people,
In the Integration Monitoring the system represent this problem:
File adapter receiver channel Mainframe_FA_StructureAch_CC_RC is not initialized. Unable to proceed: null
Any body can help me!!
Thanks!!

Hi ,
Just check is it Activated ? Go to RWB->Adapter Monitoring
Check the status there ..
To more- Go to service market place to view the Adapter Monitoring PDF

How to use File Adapter Receiver to write attachments

Hi,
i have a scenario, in which our own XInotes adapter sends an XIMessage from an IBM Lotus Notes database into XI. This XIMessage contains an XML document as application main document and several PDF files as additional attachments
On the receiver side, i must use a File Adapter to write both the XML documents and the PDF attachments into a directory.
The problem is i don't know how to use the file adapter receiver to write the attachments. In the Channel Monitoring, i can see that all PDF files are transferred to the file receiver. But the file adapter writes only the XML document into the directory.
I've also tried the AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean, but it can only swap one PDF file into the application payload. And the file name must be hard coded in the module configuration as swap.KeyName.
Could anyone give me any ideas?
thanks a lot in advance
Xiang

hi,
receiver file adapters do not supprt attachments.
Only File Sender adapter is capable of handling attachments not the receiver.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4b/a20c4cfea96b498b1e1af3f32f0670/frameset.htm
Configuring the sender FILE adapter
The sender file adapter is configured to pick the normal payload (file1.xml), which is specified in the File
access parameters, and the additional image file (file1.jpg) that is to be sent as an attachment is configured
under the Additional File(s) as shown in the screenshot below. The file type would still remain binary.
Since, by default, XI sends payload and attachments in XML format, we need to call two beans, namely the
MessageTransformBean and the PayloadSwapBean to help us is transforming the content to jpeg format
and also change the file extension.
The PayloadSwapBean module is used to replace the application payload of the XI message that holds the
data with another payload which is appended to the message as an attachment. In our case, the payload
would be file1.xml whereas the attachment would be file1.jpg
The swap module is denoted in our scenario with the module key swap. It has two parameters from the
MIME header.

File Adapter Receiver

Hi All,
File to File (CSV)
At the receiver side i am not getting the file it is showing problem in runtime workbench: File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.
Thanks,
Satish.

<i>File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.</i>
>>>
1. check if your adapter is active
2. in case you have FCC just remove the same for the time being and check if it can pass the XML version (without FCC). this will confirm if it was a problem with your FCC parameters.
Let us know the proceedings !!!!!

Problem with FIle Adapter

Hi
We r facing typical problem with file adapter.
Lets say there are 30 files to be processed by placing an copy in arichive folder by file adapter based on pooling
parameters.
All the 30 files are picked up and we can see the copies in archive folder.
But when we go to RWB and check the audit log,
there we could see only 25 files , the 5 files are missing.
no trace found therre about the 5 files.
This is happening only some times and not to all the files placed in the FTP. Later when the same file is placed back from the Archive folder to the Source folder, the file is being picked and processed succesfully.
unfortunately this is happening on Production server
Any pointers which could trouble shoot this issue.
Regards
shekar chandra

Hi,
Couple of thing which you can try....
1. Use EOIO QoS and check if you still face the issue.
Is some program or application writing files to the directory? If yes I would recommend the use of a temporary name to write the files and then rename them.
Sometimes when an external application connects via FTP and transfers the files...
The file could be picked up by the adapter poll even before the transfer of data is done.
Which is why you will find that the file is archived but there is no xml message created for the same in the Integration engine.
Try increasing the poll interval. This helps sometimes.

Unable to clone File Adapter receiver channel for parallel processing

Hi Experts,
I am using variable substitution for File - RFC - File with out BPM scenario(using request response, oneway bean).
While i placed the file in the sender FTP folder, the file didnt get picked up, but in communication channel monitoring, i am getting error ' Unable to clone File Adapter receiver channel for parallel processing'.
Can anybody provide me suggestions to solve this error.
Note : without variable substitution , the interface is working good.
Is it due to, i am trying the source structure field in response file adapter?

Hi,
In your CC, do you use some additional paramaters ?
like these one of point 47/48 of [Oss note 821267 - FAQ: XI 3.0 / PI 7.0/ PI 7.1 File Adapter|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/821267]
Maybe there is conflict with a parallel connexion and the bean used to do asynch-synch bridge...

it should be:

Problem with file adapter polling on Unix

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to run my BPEL process with receive activity of File adapter partner link. Everything is working OK on Windows file system - folder polling is set correctly and when the new file appears and is at least 2 minutes old, the process starts. But when I try to run the process on the UX server with BPEL (folders are changed to the correct values as '/home/myfolder', rights for this folder are set to RWX for everybody and process is deployed successfully to the appropriate domain) nothing is done when the new file appears in the folder.
I really don't know, where is the problem. Any hint from you?
Thanks,
Milan K.

Hi Suraj,
From The Note ``
"lock" option:- This is the option that is almost similar to the above; The key difference being in very rare circumstances, the first option may still allow channels to be run on both server nodes. When this option is set, file adapter acquires a enqueue service lock. Lock is taken on channel object and it is exclusive and non-cumulative such that no second message(even it is from the same channel) can fetch the files from configured FTP/File directories unless and until first message has completed(success/fail) its processing.
This is exactly my requirement.
but when I see the end time of the message its they are withing second only as

Performance Problem with File Adapter using FTP Conection

Hi All,
I have a pool of 19 interfaces that send data from R/3 using RFC Adpater, and these interfaces generate 30 TXT files in a target Server. I'm using File Adapters as Receiver Comunication Channel. It's generating a serious perfomance problem. In File Adpater I'm using FTP Conection with Permanently Conection, Somebody knows if PERMANENTLY CONECTION is the cause of performances problem ?
These interfaces will run once a day with total of 600 messages.
We still using a Test Server with few messages.

Hi Regis,
We also faced teh same porblem. Whats happening is that when the FTP session is initiated by the file adapter, then its getting done from teh XI server. Hence the memory of the server is also eaten up. Why dont you give a try by using 'per file transfer'.
If this folder to which you are connecting is within your XI server network then you can mount(or map) that drive to the XI server and use it with a NFS protocol of the file adapter and thereby increasing the performance.
Cheers

Character Converting Problem at File Adapter

I am having a character conversion problem bringing in a XML file into XI.
It is converting the data wrong.
I have a file adapter picking up Audit.xml encoding is utf-8, use binary mode to pick it up.
XI takes the file and converts it into a text file.
I compared the hex of Audit.xml source file and the Audit.txt file and the characters are different for a specific few.
See attached image for details
Please let me know if any additional information will help
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a68/tkc204/SAP%20XI/Audit.png

Actually for this case Christian is right the source xml that I am receiving wasn't valid UTF-8. The program generating the xml was just putting the encoding - utf-8 tag on top because that's what the code told it to do.
The actual data is Windows-1252 in xml. So when XI reads it, it uses the utf-8 tag on top and is expecting UTF-8, but it was getting something else causing the unsupported characters to get converted.
The HEX was different on the Source XML comparing it to what XI was generating after File Adapter.
After making the output change to Windows 1252. It changes back to the expect HEX.
Source - is at Windows 1252
XI - it will use UTF-8 (no way to change it)
Target - forced to create in Windows 1252
Other helpful tools I used: W3C Validator - upload the file and found that I wasn't receiving UTF-8
I hope this is clear and helps someone else in the future.
Thanks For everyone's input.

Performance problems with File Adapter and XI freeze

Hi NetWeaver XI geeks,
We are deploying a XI based product and encounter some huge performance problems. Here after the scenario and the issues:
- NetWeaver XI 2004
- SAP 4.6c
- Outbound Channel
- No mapping used and only the iDocs Adapter is involved in the pipeline processing
- File Adapter
- message file size < 2Ko
We have zeroed down the problem to Idoc adapters performance.
We are using a file channel and every 15 seconds a file in a valid Idoc format is placed in a folder, Idoc adapter picks up the file from this folder and sends it to the SAP R/3 instance.
For few minutes (approx 5 mins) it works (the CPU usage is less then 20% even if processing time seems huge : <b>5sec/msg</b>) but after this time the application gets blocked and the CPU gets overloaded at 100% (2 processes disp_worker.exe at 50% each).
If we inject several files in the source folder at the same time or if we decrease the time gap (from 15 seconds to 10 seconds) between creation of 2 Idoc files , the process blocks after posting 2-3 docs to SAP R/3.
Could you point us some reasons that could provoke that behavior?
Basically looking for some help in improving performance of the Idoc adapter.
Thanks in advance for your help and regards,
Adalbert

Hi Bhavesh,
Thanks for your suggestions. We will test...
We wonder if the hardware is not the problem of this extremely poor performance.
Our XI server is:
     Windows 2003 Server
     Processors: 2x3GHZ
     RAM: 4GB (the memory do not soak)
The messages are well formed iDocs = single line INVOICES.
Some posts are talking 2000 messages processed in some seconds... whereas we got 5 sec per message.
Tnanks for your help.
