Reading a file through a telnet socket

Hi,
I would like to be able to read the contents of a file once
I've logged on to the server. I have logged in successfully.
If I use
BufferedReader isr = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("path/code.txt"));
I get an IOException saying it can't find the file.
Am I supposed to use the socket (socket.getInputStream()) with a reader class to indicate that the file I want to read is through the socket and not on my desktop? If so how do I do it?
TIA
Lynda

You have to get the server process to open the file on the server machine and have it pass the file back through the socket. Just creating a socket from your client machine to a server machine is not in itself enough to see the file system.
For example FTP works like this (at a conceptual level)
server: listening on port 21
client: connect to server on port 21& supply username password
server: username OK
client: GET me file called code.txt
server: open file code.txt on local file system, pass the bytes through the socket
client: read the bytes coming through the sockets and place them in a file called code.txt on the local FS
client: terminate connection
hopefully this will point you in the right direction

Steps to read a file through file adaptor and then i need that to insertDB

Hi anyone please help me in reading a file through jdev and then insert into data base i am able to receive the file the null values and getting inserted..
thanks
saileshan.

Hi,
Please let us know the following -
1) Did you verify that you are able to see all the data in the BPEL process from the File which is read?
2) Are you using a transform or an assign activity to insert data into table?
If using a transform activity, did you test the mapping file (.xslt) and see that the transformations are happening correctly?
Let us know the answers to the above questions before we proceed further.
Thanks,

Problem while reading multiple files through FTP Adapter

Hi,
We have a requirement to read the excel files placed in an FTP Location and as there is no Adapter to read Excel file
we are using FTP Adapter and reading the Header values of the file(name of the
file) and we are paasing as input to the Java code which will read the data nd insert into the Database.
If we place above 20 files it was reading only some files and some were left and if we delete the files and place the unread files again some files are read and if we do the same procedure then all the files were read.
Any help regaring this appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Nagaraju .D

Are you doing anything complex for your polling, e.g. Files that must be n time old.
Can you post the WSDL so I can see the polling configuration. I only need to see the adapter configuration, not the whole file.
cheers

I can't read pdf files through Safari.

Just recently I cannot read pdf files from Safari. The file shows up as dark space. I don't know why? Guessing I changed something that caused it. Any ideas?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Cannot read Excel file through ADODB in SCCM 2012 R2 WinPE

Hi,
I'm trying to read an excel file from WinPE 5, and get this error :"Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.". My code is (Vbscript, in a HTA) :
Dim cn
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
With cn
.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
.ConnectionString = "Data Source=" & Fic_ref_deploy & ";Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1;"
.Open
End With
I've included many packages from SCCM : WinPE-DismCmdlets ; WinPE-Dot3Svc ; WinPE-HTA ; WinPE-MDAC ; WinPE-NetFx ; WinPE-PowerShell.
Have I missed something ? May I add something else ?

Reading PDF file through BPEL file Adapter

Hi,
We have a requirement where in we have to read PDF document. We have to use the data coming from the PDF.
We checked "Native format not req" check box in File Adapter and could get the PDF data in some other format but are not able to read required data from it.
Help in this regard is highly appreciated.

File adapter at present does not help in reading pdf data.
to do this, you might wanna have a java program interface between your pdf and bpel.

Is it possible to read "rtx" files in JAVA.. and make a "xls" files.. !!

Hello frnds..
I dont have any idea.. how to read rtx files.. in JAVA.. ??
I have some data in rtx files.. which i want to read it.. and save in xls files.. !!
Please someone help.. am new to java.. searched a lot.. abt that .. but didnt find.. anything.. !!
gervini

I'm not being dismissive but I think your question comes down to "is there already a package/library to do this".
You can use POI/HSSF to generate xls using Java. As for the other end, is rtx a rich text format? Are you able to parse the information in the file by simply reading the file through the regular file reading mechanisms?

Transfering a file through Socket programming

Hi all,
I want to return a file from server to client through a socket. I tried using ObjectOutput Stream where in I returned a java.io.File from server. But at client side when I say file.getLeangth() it comes as 0 and if I try to assign FileInputStream on the object it throws an exception as the file not found as the path associated with the file will be of Server.
So can anyone help as to how to transfer a file through socket programming???
thx in advance
MK

java.io.File is NOT the contents of the file. It really just represents the path.
If you want to transfer the file's contents, you'll have to use a FileInputStream or FileReader, read from it, and then write the bytes or chars on the wire.

Sockets: can only send once file through

Hi,
I am using sockets to send text and files to a client on a Clio. I want to send multiple files through. However, only the first file goes through. The rest are never received (although they are uploaded). My question is:
Why can not send anything through the socket (text or files) after the first file is sent?
The fileSend() is on the server side, fileReceive is on the client side.
public static void fileSend (Socket uploadSocket, String source) {
     try {
         InputStream inFile = new FileInputStream(source);
         InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(inFile);
         OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(uploadSocket.getOutputStream());
         System.out.println("Sending " + source + ".");
         int data;
         int bytes = 0;
         while ((data = in.read()) != -1) {
          bytes++;
          out.write(data);
         bytes++;
         out.write(data);
         if (in != null) in.close();
         if (out != null) out.flush();
         System.out.println("Upload complete: " + bytes + " Bytes!");
     catch (Exception e) {
         System.err.println("Couldn't upload " + source + ": " + e.getMessage());
   public static void fileReceive (Socket downloadSocket, String destination) {
     try {
         InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(downloadSocket.getInputStream());
         OutputStream outFile = new FileOutputStream(destination);
         OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(outFile);
         System.out.println("Downloading data to " + destination + ".");
         int data = in.read();
         int bytes = 0;
         while (data != -1) {
          bytes++;
          out.write(data);
          data = in.read();
         bytes++;
         if (out != null) {
          out.flush();
          out.close();
         outFile.close();
         System.out.println("Download complete: " + bytes + " Bytes!");
         in.skip(in.available());
     catch (Exception e) {
         System.err.println("Couldn't download " + destination + ": " + e.getMessage());
    }Thanks,
Neetin

I think its better to pass the outputstream to the filesend() method and inputstream to fileReceive() method
something like this:
OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(uploadSocket.getOutputStream());
public static void fileSend (OutputStream os, String source) {
//write your file onto the output stream
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(downloadSocket.getInputStream());
public static void fileReceive (InputStream is) {
//Read from the input stream
}This should work.. Good luck

Send many files through a socket without closing Buffered Streams?

Hi,
I have an application that sends/receives files through a socket. To do this, on the receiver side I have a BufferedInputStream from the socket, and a BufferedOutputStream to the file on disk.
On the sender side I have the same thing in reverse.
As you know I can't close any stream, ever.. because that closes the underlying socket (this seems stupid..?)
therefore, how can I tell the receiver that it has reached the end of a file?
Can you show me any examples that send/receive more than one file without closing any streams/sockets?

Hi,
As you know I can't close any stream, ever.. because that closes the underlying socket (this seems stupid..?)Its not if you want to continuosly listen to the particular port.. like those of server, you need to use ServerSocket.
for sending multiple files the sender(Socket) can request the file to server (ServerSocket). read the contents(file name) and then return the file over same connection, then close the connection.
For next file you need to request again, put it in loop that will be better.
A quick Google gives me this.

Santosh.
