Problem with the # in upload file of application server.

Hi All,
I have a to upload a unix file which have # after every field.
i tried  " OPEN DATASET x_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS."
but its  not working
.would appreciate if you can  reply to this  on immediate basis.
Thanks in advance

Chiru,
You should be ok with somethign like this as long as the # is a true delimiter and not part of the data.
FORM retrieve_file.
  data: wk_rec(30000)     TYPE c.
  CLEAR t_error.
  OPEN DATASET zfile IN TEXT MODE MESSAGE t_mesg.
  IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    MOVE 'X' TO t_error.
    MESSAGE e100(z0) WITH 'Error opening file:' t_mesg.
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.
  DO.
    READ DATASET zfile INTO wk_rec.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    SPLIT wk_rec AT '#'      " <== your delimter
      INTO  in_rec-field1
            in_rec-field2
            in_rec-field3
            in_rec-field4
            in_rec-field5.
    APPEND in_rec TO it_input.

  • Issue with the Maximum lenght string on application server file

    Hi,
    I have one internal table which cotains aroung 200 fields. The total lenght of the all fields is around 2000 charr.
    I am using open data, transfer and close data set to put my file on application server.
    I am looping at my internal table and then transfering the data on server file.
    The problem is that after generating the file on application server i couldnt see all the fields. i can see only around 500 char.
    not all the data.
    Does there is maximum limit on the number of char on application serevr.
    or there is complete record but we cant see,
    kindly help.

    Hi Sachin,
    As Rainer said you cannot see the full length of row in AL11. The visible length is restricted. If you want to re-confirm whether all data are in. Then download the file from application server to your local system and see the contents. It will be to 2000 characters which you passed.
    Hope this helps.

    Try declaring it as TYPE STRING. Not sure though.
    There are two predefined types in ABAP with variable length:
    STRING for character strings
    XSTRING for byte strings

  • Issue in Uploading file to application server

    Hi folks,
    I need to transfer data to excel file on application server but i am facing issues while doing so.
    I am working on ECC6.0 system.
    I am trying with this code and it giving dump error on transfer command.
    w_file = '/usr/data/020//varun.xls'.
    OPEN DATASET w_file for input in text mode encoding non-unicode.
    LOOP AT T_MARD.

    endloop.
    CLOSE DATASET w_file.
    Please help.
    Is there any other way to do so please let me know

    Hi Got the solution :-
    If the data to be transferred is having all characters then we can use this:-
    OPEN DATASET w_file for output in text mode encoding non-unicode.
    if sy-subrc eq 0.
       LOOP AT T_MARD into wa_mard.
            TRANSFER wa_mard to w_file.

    endif.
    CLOSE DATASET w_file.
    If all the data is not in char then - declare a char strinf of the table length.
    Data: loc_string(300) type c.
    OPEN DATASET w_file for output in text mode encoding non-unicode.
    if sy-subrc eq 0.

  • How to upload file on Application Server with Forms 6i?

    Please, I need to upload .csv file from local to Application Server, I think to use .jsp application, but I don't know where I had to put it...Apache can't read .jsp file without Tomcat? If I launch my .jsp file from Apache/htdocs directory can't view .jsp code (Method Not Allowed)...method is POST...any idea? Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    You could write a java bean to get the file from the client and to upload to App Server. And, you simply use it in Forms 6i.
    Also, you could use d2kwutil (not tried though. you could search this forum and get an idea of that).
    Of course, For your information, You could use WebUtil (in Forms 10g / 10.1.2) which has the functionality.

    Dave

    Hi Rams,
    I don't think it is possible to do updates to the APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table. What you will need to do is create a process that selects the required information about your uploaded files, and then inserts it into a custom table inside you schema.
    Then modify your report, and form so the select and update statements run off the custom table and not the APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table.
    Its a bit of a long winded way of doing it, but there is examples in the HowTo's at the following URL:
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31036_01/doc/appdev.22/b28839/up_dn_files.htm#CIHHEHCJ

    Debraj,
    in SXMB_MONI, go through the "Trace" header section of the message and find the exact point in which the exception occurs. Paste it here.
    At a glance, it seems an RFC call that fails inside the mapping... Do you use JCo & UDF in the mapping to do some lookup/check in R/3?
    Let me know.

  • Uploading file in application server to a transaction

    Hi All,
    I have a requirment where in i want to upload the transaction FF_5 using the file in the application server. Is there any way to do this. I dont want to download the file to presentation server and then upload the file in FF_5  transaction. According to the requirement i have to directly upload the application server file in the tcode FF_5. Pls let me know how to do this.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    You cannot upload the data from the applcation server. You have to upload from the presentation server.
    If you have data on the application server then you need to save it to presentation server and upload to FF_5.

  • How to know the first placed file in Application server directory

    Hi All ,
    i want to Know the First plased file in a application server directory . i have tried with
    FM EPS_GET_FILE_ATTRIBUTES but it is giving the file size. Can anybody  give some idea to get the file lastmodify property.
    Thanks & Regards
    Prithvi.

    Hi Prithvi!
    Use the methods of class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES (if your release is at least 620, sorry otherwise).
    Method DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES will give you all files of a directory, then you can check with method FILE_GET_ATTRIBUTES for some date info.
    But maybe you can agree about a timestamp in the filename - this has to be set by the sender, but is much easier and reliable, too.

    Christian
