  • Unable to upload document in KM Content

    Hi all,
             I am uploading documents into KM content by following path Folder> New> Upload. Previously it was working fine but today  the document is not getting uploaded and it is not giving any error message also.
           I followed the path Folder>New>Upload and provided the file name and path. After clicking upload, no message or pop-up is appearing and screen is navigating to KM root screen and the document is also not getting uploaded.
          Any suggestions why this is happening? Please suggest me
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Pavan,<br>
    Few days back I face the same issue and the SAP note resolve the issue(we have windows as OS).<br>
    So check the following:<br>
    1) the variable "temp" and "tmp" must have the absolute path to the temporary folder( do not use% sign in the path).<br>
    2) If you are creating a seprate ttemporary folder as per note then in the environmental variable keep it's path first , then of oters.<br>
    3) try to give full Full Control on the temporary folder created.
    <br>
    Hope this may help.

  • Upload documents to DMS content server from other tcodes like MIRO

    Hi Experts,
    How can I upload my document to DMS content server through transactions like MIRO.

    Hi Sunil,
    You can't uplaod from different t-code, you need to upload it thru CV01n only. One exception is there which is BDC t-code SHDB for batch uploading. But from other t-code you can't uplaod a document into SAP DMS content server.
    One another option is create a z-tcode for the same. i.e. for MIRO create ZMIRO.
    In statndard environment you can attache but it will not saved in content server. Only thru CV01n it can be done.
    I hope this will resolve the query.

  • Upload documents

    Greetings all,
    I have a problem when uploading document, images, etc... into an application(I am using JAVA, JSP,JSF and JS in my application).
    It is working fine by using Weblogic 8.1. However, when I am using Weblogic 10.3 it gives me ERROR 500--Internal Server Error.
    Even though the code is the same except the deployment files which are one for weblogic 8.1 and the other one for weblogic 10.3.
    I don't know if there is something I should add or do to make it run properly.

  • Problems while uploading text documents into Unicode Database

    I just upgraded our database from 9iR1 to 9iR2 (9.2.0.1.0). The server
    character set is AL32UTF8. Now I'm facing a problem when
    uploading text documents into the database via a web frontend.
    I use the upload table defined for the PL/SQL Database Access Descriptor:
    create table TB_UPLOAD (
    NAME VARCHAR2(256) not null,
    MIME_TYPE VARCHAR2(128),
    DOC_SIZE NUMBER,
    DAD_CHARSET VARCHAR2(128),
    LAST_UPDATED DATE,
    CONTENT_TYPE VARCHAR2(128),
    BLOB_CONTENT BLOB);
    After uploading a text document containing the two words "hallo welt",
    the following statement returns not "hallo welt", but "68616C6C6F2077656C74":
    declare
    b_loc blob;
    v_amount integer := 100;
    v_buffer varchar2(100);
    v_offset integer := 1;
    begin
    select blob_content into b_loc from tb_upload where name like 'mydoc.txt';
    dbms_lob.read(b_loc, v_amount, v_offset, v_buffer);
    htp.prn(v_buffer);
    end;
    What is this? I studied the documentation, but didn't found a solution.
    When trying to use Oracle's built-in procedure wpg_docload.download_file,
    the content is shown the way it should be. Unfortunately, I can't use
    wpg_docload.download_file in order to copy the BLOB content to another table.
    Any hints would be appreciated!
    Thanks so much in advance!

    Hi Roman,
    the upload uses a BLOB (Binary Lob). Your Document is
    stored as is in the binary representation. If you
    use dbms_lob.read on a blob and your buffer is a varchar2 the binary representation is not translated!!!
    use a raw for the buffer and utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2
    to do the conversion to varchar.
    try this
    Procedure SHOW_DOC(p_name doc_test.name%TYPE)
    IS
    v_len number;
    v_mime_type tb_upload.mime_type%TYPE;
    v_offset integer := 1;
    v_Buf_size integer := 32767;
    v_buf raw(32767);
    v_blob blob;
    v_Doc_name varchar2(1000);
    BEGIN
    v_doc_name := url_Decode(p_name);
    select mime_type,doc_size,blob_content
    into v_mime_Type,v_len,v_blob
    from tb_upload
    where name = v_doc_name;
    OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER(v_Mime_Type);

    HTP.PRN(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(v_buf));
    v_offset := v_offset + v_buf_size;
    END LOOP;

  • Batch uploading to a document library with content types

    Hi,
    I have a document library with two content types. Now I need to upload documents to this document library. However, if I have large number of files, then uploading through web UI is a pain as metadata will not be attached. How should I automate it  from
    my computer using powershell without relying on Administrator to run the powershell script. Or is there any other way to do it without using powershell? or  can powershell be run remotely from an end user computer?
    Note I am using SharePoint 2010.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to butch upload files to document library with content types.
    There are two good tools in CodePlex which can batch upload files with content types, you can have a look at them.
    DocMetaMan : Bulk document Upload and MetaData (Taxonomy) Setter
    SharePoint Multiple File Upload Script
    There are some third-party tools which can achieve the same scenario, you can refer to it.

  • Getting the document ID of an uploaded document

    Hello All,
    Perhaps someone out there can help with this assumingly simple task of getting the document id of a file that was uploaded.
    Back ground:
    I have a separate system which retains records of transactions. Paperwork is often received as a part of these transactions and my intention is to store those documents into SharePoint. I want to store the document id on the record to facilitate easy retrieval
    of the document. No need to search by meta tags or the like; I will have the specific document id which will point to the document.
    Environment:
    I currently have SharePoint 2013 online. The program that creates and maintains the records is an in-house VB.Net application running on 4.5 framework. The document repository is defined as a record center and contains several content types and meta tags
    (columns) already defined. Again the application is written in VB.
    Goal:
    Upload a given document, get the document id, and store that id to the record.
    What I have done:
    I have created a function that will take a given file name and proceed to upload the document to the given SharePoint list. It then proceeds to update the meta tags with information that will help find it using alternative methods. I have also spend hours
    upon hours researching every corn of every forum to find an answer. But to no avail.
    The problem:
    I cannot find how to get the document id of the document that I uploaded. Either it is so easy that no-one has bothered to post how it is done. Or it is not doable. I say this because I can find absolutely no reference to how to get the document id. There
    is lots of references on how to get the name, the url, the meta tags, etc... But NO example on getting the document id. Very frustrating. Below is the code that I am using. Can someone suggest how I can go about getting the document id. Please treat me like
    I am a noob and spell it out. Sample code would be great! I have already burnt way too much time on this seemingly simple task. I would greatly appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    Thanks Micheal for confirming SharePoint version.
    Is your VB code working with SharePoint 2010 Client Object model? It would give the idea that there is some poroblem in SharePoint 2013 CSOM.
    By the way, I tried the below code  in C# and I was able to print the Document ID and it worked for me.
     using (ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("http://<<Server Name>>:2425/sites/test/"))
                    Web site = clientContext.Web;
                    // Change your document library name
                    List docLib = site.Lists.GetByTitle("tester");
                    clientContext.Load(docLib);
                    CamlQuery caml = new CamlQuery();
                    ListItemCollection items = docLib.GetItems(caml);
                    clientContext.Load(items);
                    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
                    // Iterate through all items in the document library
                    foreach (ListItem item in items)
                        Console.WriteLine("File Name:: " + item.FieldValues["Title"]);
                        Console.WriteLine("Document Id : " + item.FieldValues["_dlc_DocId"]);
                    Console.ReadLine();
    Output:
    File Name:: Remove_URL
    Document Id : TEST-1-1
    File Name:: Request
    Document Id : TEST-1-2
    Please check that your code is working with SP2010 or not?

  • Error on update of document stored in content server

    Error on update of document stored in content server
    On a regular basis (but not reproducible) we find that after updating a document, it is deleted from content server (or at least it cannot be retrieved).  These problems have only been experienced since we switched to using content server as our storage repository, as opposed to R/3.
    We create and maintain documents through a bespoke transaction, which calls standard SAP functions BDS_BUSINESSDOCUMENT_CREA_TAB and cl_bds_document_set=>update_with_table.
    Whilst the errored documents are listed in the BDS via transaction OAOR (business document navigator), an error is received when you try to display it (in our case an MS-Word error indicating file/pathname invalid). 
    We are satisfied that file/pathname are valid and find that this occurs occasionally when a document has been updated.  It appears that the document has been deleted. 
    This bespoke transaction has been running successfully for almost two years, and these problems have only been experienced after switching to content server as a storage repository (as opposed to R3 previously).  Has anyone else experienced these problems? 
    We are running :
    R/3 Enterprise 620,
    SAP HTTP Content Server Version 6.30 Patch 13
    SAPDB version 7.3.0.54

    Hi Sonny,
    To check the connectivity between your content server and Workstation and SAP Server.
    Pls goto the command prompt of your workstation
    give the command like this example.
    C:\>Ping 117.123.45.201
    you will get the reply from the server. here 117.123.45.201 is your content server IP.
    If you are getting the reply then it means that your contentserver and workstation are connected propely.
    Like that pls check the connectivity between your systems.
    Pls check the hosts file of your systems also.
    If the hosts file entry is not maintained, you can check-out file from content server but you cannot check-in the original.
    Pls let me know what kind of error Message you are getting?
    From where you are trying to check-in the Original? From the DIR screen or from CAD Desktop screen?

  • There was a problem reading this document (117)

    Dear Designers
    I am facing a strange problem while doing test presentment in Adobe output designer. When i do a test presentment with my dat file which is meant for fax (^job newFax   -fform01F.MDF) , i see the pdf (consist of 2 pages ) but as soon as i scroll down to next page (Pg 2)  of my pdf ; it giving me a Adobe reader error pop up "There was a problem reading this document (117)" and when i click OK and comes to page 2 (i'm seeing the content of Pg2 curerntly) and scroll back to page 1 the data on page 2 goes blank. What could be the possible reason for  this ? I assume the flaw is on Adobe reader side , but please brighten me with the knowledge if there is some issue on dat file side.
    Any possible guidance or help would be highly appreciated
    thanks

    Sorry, I do not quite understand what your problem is:
    you have a problem with signing in to the ExportPDF service ?
    you have a problem opening PDF files ?  If so, are these local or online documents?

  • THE FAMOUS ERROR: There was a problem reading this document (15) - Thanks Adobe Engineering team

    As a result of this error, I cannot delete pages in a big PDF file I have of 1032 pages.
    The error, famous on the web and in Google, is:
    there was a problem reading this document (15)
    I hope I can find a solution for this, because I cannot delete the unnecessary pages inside the document which is driving me crazy.
    Adobe Acrobat X has a very poor quality testing. In fact I don't beleive Adobe test their products, I think they just program them, label them as the finished product, ASK FOR A HIGH PRICE, OF COURSE, and release them to the market creating a lot of nightmares and headaches to the customer.
    Adobe Acrobat X crashed several times when the files have flash content inside or formularies. The program, simply, is bad programmed with a very poor engineering inside.
    As soon I find an alternative for PDF, I will switch, I promise, in fact I don't promise it, I SWEAR IT.
    And if I dont find a solution for this I will put in my car a banner that says "DON'T BUY ADOBE ACROBAT, IS THE WORST PROGRAM YOU CAN FIND!"
    I'm loosing days and days of work, this is costing me problems and money.

    Yes, there is something wrong with the document. That is the defective programming the Adobe engineering team did. And please, allow me to explain you why it is defective. After you spend millions dollars in 950 engineers and 3100 beta testers, you can destroy Adobe Acrobat X easily just downloading a website rich in flash content. Some animated banners in the downloaded pages from the web, it's enough to destroy it.
    Just go to a website where you have animated banners, and press Shift+Crtl+O to download the pages...
    Save your PDF document and then try to work with it.
    If the document has a big size, let's say 1000 pages approximately, and many of them have flash content... Adobe Acrobat X crash automatically just moving from one page to another.
    As simple as that.
    Is the most unstable program I've seen in all my life. And please, don't tell me it's my machine, because I've tested it in other computers. The same!
    But there is more! yes
    Forms fields also destroy Acrobat X
    In a big PDF file having several pages inside with forms, just go to Tools, Forms and Edit, then in the list of pages try to delete the forms fields selecting them and pressing the Del key... crasshhhh Acrobat X die.
    What kind of betatesters you chose to test your products? For sure are people that are working with light documents of 5... 10 pages and no more.
    For sure are not people working extensively with Adobe Acrobat, as I do.
    And what happens when Acrobat X crash miserably time after time? that the Error 15 comes, because the file becomes corrupted.
    This is not serious.
    Is this the kind of performance and stability that Acrobat provide to the customers? having the risk to lose important documents and data, due how unstable is the program?
    You can tell me you hired NASA personnel to do this program, but customers need results, and crashing the program just pressing one key is not serious.
    And talking about complains I don't want to remember the last update of the Acrobat 9 !!!
    And you know what? a simple tool as NitroPDF don't crash!
    Sadly NitroPDF is not an option for me, because I embed videos in the PDF documents and NitroPDF don't allow me that.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat X because sadly I don't find another alternative, the day I find it, I'll switch for sure.
    Or perhaps we can get a miracle, and your programmers could focus in what is IMPORTANT: STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE.

    I am using Oracle UCM for storing and retrieving documents and that content id is stored in my database, which i use to interact with UCM.
    My UCM server is on an ip which starts with 10.184.*.*, when i tried uploading/downloading a file from a client machine which has the ip starting with 10.184.*.*, then it is fine, but when i use a different client machine which has the ip starting with 10.180.*.* or anything else apart from 10.184, then am getting an error like "Permission denied. Address '10.180.218.230' is not an allowable remote socket address"
    Any help on this highly appreciable.
    Regards,

    Hi Vinothgan,
    You need to add the new IPs to the IP Address Filter via Enterprise Manager. Here are the steps.
    1. Login to EM
    2. Navigate to Webcenter->Content->Content Server
    3. Select the Content Server instance
    4. Choose 'Configuration' option form the Content Server menu
    5. Add the new IPs to the IP Address Filter
    6. Restart the webcenter content manager server
    Alternately
    1. Browse the Webcenter Content installation folders
    Ex: OracleWC\Middleware\user_projects\domains\ecm_domain\ucm\cs\config
    2. Edit the config.cfg file
    3. Append the new IP to the configuration variable SocketHostAddressSecurityFilter (Ensure it is pipe seperated '|')
    4. Restart webcenter content server
    HTH

  • Creating a new "Link to a Document" opens Word document or upload document dialog - plus more!

    The Link to Document content type seems to be corrupted at root. When I attempt to create a new Link, either Word opens with a blank document or the "Upload" document dialog opens. It's been changing as I investigate.
    One things I've noticed is that the "Link to a Document" Content Type on the parent site collection now shows it's parent as Document. this explains why the Word document opens, but not why the Upload dialog does.
    While writing this question, I decided to check further and it seems that the other document types, Audio, Video etc.  all now have Document as the parent and are opening a blank Word document.
    Has anyone seen this behavior? How do I fix this?
    This is on SharePoint 2010.
    Thanks in advance.

    Well, I spoke too soon. The process worked for all the custom content types, but the default Document type was still messed up. I probably should have fixed that one first, but...
    Anyhow, the Document type had no template going to the Upload File dialog rather than the blank Word document it's supposed to go to. I followed the same procedure I'd followed for the other content types, checking what worked on another site and using that
    template which in this case was a blank field:
    So, I went opened Document, Document Content Type and went to advanced settings. The template field was empty, which matched the working site, so thinking that if I saved, it would match up with the working site. I saved the Document content type and when
    after several minutes the save failed with an incredibly long list of locations where that were being perceived as "read only" plus several hidden content types that were listed as sealed. This snapshot shows a few of they many pages of content types. (I poorly
    struck through confidential info):
    Besides this gigantic error, which would require going to hundreds of locations on the site to change read access settings, which are, as far as I can tell actually not "read only" or are inaccessible, such as the hidden "System Page Layout' and so forth
    which shouldn't be based upon the default document type anyway and therefor not fixable, I need to understand why this is happening and what to do about it. I don't want to spend the next two days going over all of these libaries and content types and ending
    up back where I started with all the content types still screwed up. Afterall, I've spent about a day creating all these custom Content Types only to have the default Document content type loose its settings and corrupting everything and another day fixing
    it and having it happen again.
    This is a highly unacceptable behavior on the part of SharePoint and I would really like to fix this.
    Help is sorely needed.
    Thanks in advance
