Regarding creation files on app servers programatically

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have to copy data from one struc to other. The algo implemented is something as under:
1. Select data from source acc to package size.
Total_records = total_records + number of records fetched.
2. move data to target structure.
3. write this data to a file on app server
3. If tota_records >= some number 'XYZ', then
4. call a report in background to read data from file specified in step3, and put this data in target table.
5. end select.
Now, since I have to split the complete data into multiple tasks for updation, I want to create separate files on the app sever for diff set of records.
For ex, for the first10000 records file name shud be X1 . Using this file step4 would be processed.
For next 10000 records file generated is X2. Using this file the 10000 records selected are processed using step4.
MY QUERY IS: HOW CAN I GENERATE FILENAMES SUCH AS X1 ,X2 ETC ON THE APPLICATION SERVER. CAN I DO THAT DIRECTLY USING OPEN DATASET <FILENAME>?
Thanks-
HS.

I need to know that if a file name is non existent on app server, then will it be created when i use it.
for ex: dir_temp is the dir name.
in my report I use filename as dir_temp/X1 , then will this file X1 be created on app server.

Need Guidance on s/w Architecture for Server PDF Creation & File Merge App

Please send me your recommendation on how to tackle this design requirement with the correct adobe software products. Let me know the s/w architecture you recommend too.
My client has a microsoft office 2010 application customized via VBA which is on a windows server. Users remote desktop connect to the server and run the application - multiple users running the application at once on the same server.
A new software enhancement is being requested to allow users to create PDF files. The PDF will need a customized coversheet (and if possible, a table of contents) as well as include entire existing PDFs all merged into one document. They would like to have a pop-up file selector interface then push a button to generate the PDF.
I understand the Acrobat library cannot be used in the server environment. What is the Adobe solution for this; is there a way to create a custom library (dll or such) perhaps using visual studio (c#?) that references the "Adobe PDF Library" (which I understand we'd have to license) which in turn the Office application VBA environment can add as a reference to get to the functionality needed?
Or - what do you receommend?
Thanks!

@Dan_Korn, I'll take a look at FusionPro. Thanks!
For the Adobe solution, I think its possible to have acrobat on the server when it's hosting users in their own remote desktop. I see Adobe has a citrix-based licensing solution so this or something similar could work for us.
http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/Citrix_Policy_AX_AXI_11-12-2012.pdf
We only have a couple users of our custom ERP application that need the PDF merge/edit "button" to do their job. LiveCycle sounds wonderful but from what I've heard it costs in the tens of thousands. (I am not able to find a price list on the Adobe site.) For a couple of users LiveCycle is overkill.
Buying an acrobat license for all the company employees that use our custom application in the server hosted environment is out of the question. (I see the acrobat costs $450 for one seat as of today.)
You might say why not split our custom application into two - one version that uses acrobat (for the couple of users) and one that doesn't? But, this will burden us with the increased costs of maintaining two custom applications and require users to switch between applications just to push one button.
It's never easy!

Regarding a file manager

Although the Lumia series has provided so many new features to smart phones but still there are some very small things that they forget to provide. Ii have so many concerns. My first concern is regarding a file manager app, there is no such app where we can get all the photos, videos, sounds, documents, app setups etc. at a single place.. We cannot even get the details of a photo in the album, apart from these no cut- paste option is provided, we cannot change the folders here which can be done very easily in android phones, so please provide a proper file managing app.
my second problem is about Bluetooth, in my Lumia 520, there is no option where I can receive multiple files by permitting just once, for every single transfer I have to tap the accept button, what kind of smart phone is this? Even cheaper phones have this feature..
Another problem is regarding the app setups in SD card, why do we need an internet connection to install an app if we already have the setup in SD card ? Why have you made such simple things so complicated?
Another problem I regarding the videos, I am using this phone for more than a year and still don't know how to transfer videos from pc to this phone, its a very complicated procedure, please help.. I believe there is someone sitting on the other side who will read my feedback and give a good response to it..
Thank you!!

1. Attach the phone to the PC using USB
2. copy the video file using CTRL+C,
3. in windows explorer, find Videos folder on the phone
4. paste the file there (CTRL+V)
or you can use drag& drop

Configure Multiple App Servers to Use Same Files from Network Share?

Application Server v10.1.2
We're currently running Oracle Forms and Reports for a legacy application. It is served up by 8 app servers who pull the files from a single file server. We are beginning to transition pieces of this application to Java; how would we configure the OC4J instances on all 8 machines to pull the Java files from the single file server? In my experience I've always just logged into each app server, gone into the OC4J instance, pointed it to my ear file and let it install(course, I only had to manage one or two servers, never 8). That doesn't seem like that would work in this distributed configuration.
Any suggestions?

You can cluster your Application Servers, and then deploy your EAR to the cluster insted of deploying the EAR on a single OC4J.

BSPs configuration with multiple apps servers

Hi Masters,
This is regrarding configure ICM and BSPs on our production box with multiple application servers.
We have our production box in a cluster environment.
The central instance is dbciSAP and apps servers are sapaps2 thru sapaps6. The database is on shared disks. Whenever the central instance fails sapaps2 takes the control and become as dbciSAP but the main dbciSAP never become a application server when ever sapaps2 acts as dbciSAP. Since we have configured load balancing concept in production environment the users can login to system thru any application server. This is waht our environment.
As part of our production box to SAP 4.7 upgrade from 4.6C, we are asked to configure the environment to deploy BSPs. We have successfully configured and deployed the BSPs in our DEV and QAS system (Both are central instances with no application servers) except production box which is due in the next month.
The process we follow to activate BSPs is as follows:
1.Define an ICM service port in /etc/services file.
2.Add the ICM related parameters in instance profiles.
3.Make sure the ICM status is active in SMICM tx.
4.Activate the BSP services in SICF as per OSS note 571484.
Now, the question is how to configure the same ICM service and activate the BSPs since we have multiple multiple application servers.
Subsequently What I am enquirying is:
Do I need to define ICM service ports on each and every hosts where the application servers are running?
Do I need to make changes to each and every instance profile of the application server?
What are the differences in configuring ICM services on central instance and application instances?
Appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks and Regards
Murty Patchipala

Grasshopper,
I think what you should really read up on is the SAP WebDispatcher. If are serious about running BSP/ICM across multiple app servers, this is the key technology:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/5cfd3b0e59774ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm This may also answer some of your questions about profile parameters.
Other than that I can share what we did. We did activate the ICM and services on all app servers and central instance. The service ports of the individual servers aren't that important now because of the WebDispatcher (at least they aren't visible to the user).
Yes we did make some of the ICM profile changes in each instance profile. If your settings are the same, consider using the default profile. Are their particular settings you are interested? I will look over ours, but I don't remember any huge differences from APP server to Central Instance.

SharePoint Foundation 2013 - Search Configuration Issue - 2 App Servers and 2 Front-End Servers

Hi,
We have a SharePoint Foundation 2013 with SP1 Environment.
In that, we have 2 Front-End Servers and 2 App Servers. In the Front-End Servers, the Search Service is stopped and is in Disabled state and in the 2 App Servers in One App Server, Search is Online and in another Search is Starting but goes to Stopped sooon
after.
Originally, we had only 1 App Server and we were running our Search Service and Search Service Application in that. Now since the index location became full and we were unable to increase the drive there, we added one more App Server and now the issue is
Search is not properly getting configured in either of these App servers. What we want to do is run Search only in the new App Server, because we have a lot of storage space for Index locations here, but in the older App Server, not run Search at all. We
tried keeping the Search Service disabled and ran the below PowerShell Scripts, but none of the ones are working. These scripts are creating the Search Service Application, but the error of "Admin Component is not Online", "Could not connect
to the machine hosting SharePoint 2013 admin component" is coming up.

Hi Karthick,
For your issue, could you provide the

For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at

For troubleshooting your issue, you can try to run the SharePoint Products Configuration Wizard on your WFE servers and run the script for configuring the search service on SharePoint

Delete file from app server

hi, i am running a background job in bw and for that created a file on the application server.now how do i delete that file.to create the file i just gave the name in the bw and the file got created.i am not able to find how to delete it.
or
rather than deleting the file how can we delete the data it is containing.please do let me know

hi,
but using DELETE DATASET u can remove file for app server.
If u want to delete the data alone then give the same name without data it will overwrite.
U can check it in AL11.
regards
md zubair sha
U can also use the function module - EPS_DELETE_FILE

Problem with READ DATASET when reading file from app server

Hi,
wondering if anyone can help, I'm using the following code to read from a file on app server, the file is of type .rtf
OPEN DATASET file_rtf FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE
ENCODING DEFAULT

READ DATASET file_rtf INTO string.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

the open dataset part works sy-subrc = 0, but the read returns sy-subrc = 8 and no data is passed to string.
Any ideas as to what is causing this problem appreciated, <removed>

Function module to fetch pdf file from App. Server and print/email?

Hi all,
Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
Please help..
Thanks in advance.
Sandeep.

Hi Sandeep,
Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER
1) As far as i know there are no FMs to read a file from App server, you can do the same using *OPEN/READ/CLOSE dataset ABAP statements - There are tons of examples for this on the net.
and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
You can send the file read from the app server(by the suggested method above) and use CL_BCS to send it as an attachment.
Again there are many examples on the net on how to use CL_BCS for the same.

Chen

Problem in downloading file from app server using CG3Y in to .XLS fomat

hi All,
I have uploaded file in to application server through a program using open data set with the separater as "|" ( pipe ) . Now the user should be able to download the file from apps server to presenataion server in .XLS format using txn CG3Y. but when we download, the format appears wierd and the data is not consistent across columns in excel. i.e the data which is supposed to be in one column in the excel is in the other column. what precautaions should i take before moving data to apps server so that it will be downloaded in a good format.
Appreciate your help...
Regards,
Sreekanth.

Separate each values with TAB space present in the application server .
Currently u r using | pipe character. Instead of that use CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB as delimiter.
Each value will displayed in separate cells in excel sheet when u download it frm app.server

Download PDF file from APP server!

Hi!
Has anyone tried uplaoding and downloding a PDF table from app server as I tried from a normal method by Open dataset, Transfer but it wont work.
Please provide any inputs.
Thanks.

Hi park,
1. Using open data set, transfer , close etc,
   also it will work.
   ( it will download / upload any kind of file from app server)
2. Just make sure the
   FULL PATHNAME and the FILENAME
   are mentioned in EXACT CASE
(small/CAPITAL).
3. U can check thru transaction AL11, to see the file and path.

Can you install the Office Web Application Server on one of the App Servers for SharePoint 2013?

Hi,
Is it possible to run Office Web Application Server (shows preview images for docs and allows Notepad, Word, Excel to work etc) on one of the SharePoint 2013 App Servers. I don't want to have to create a new server. It talks about setting
up a farm.
Better still how the feck do you switch this functionlity off - I always remember it being a pain in the arse. We accidentally ran the first part of the configuration on one of the SharePoint App Servers only to find out our subscription does not
have this download (bar stewards changed this Nov 2014 - just after started contract).
Help would be much appreciated as close to go live
Thanks.
John.

Hi John,
Please reboot the server at the very beginning and test the issue again.
Quote from you:
Problem is I get Internet Web Page cannot display the webpage everytime I click in a excel document, powerpoint document, notebook link or the preview
Please post the url in browser address here.
If you just executed the command below:
Add-WindowsFeature Web-Server,Web-Mgmt-Tools,Web-Mgmt-Console,Web-WebServer,Web-Common-Http,Web-Default-Doc,Web-Static-Content,Web-Performance,Web-Stat-Compression,Web-Dyn-Compression,Web-Security,Web-Filtering,Web-Windows-Auth,Web-App-Dev,Web-Net-Ext45,Web-Asp-Net45,Web-ISAPI-Ext,Web-ISAPI-Filter,Web-Includes,InkandHandwritingServices
It just install some windows feature to the current server, we can find it should be done before installing several server products.
Could you please verify if the command you executed is the same as the one above?
You could also go to local disk and check if there is OfficeWebApps folder under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\?
If you check in Control Panel > Programs, is there any feature related to Office Web Apps?
If you have confirmed there is no Office Web Apps feature installed, please go to SharePoint document library settings, and make the document to open in client, does it work?
