Saving a file on XI Server

Hi,
I hav a requirement where i hav to download a file from an FTP and read its contents and modify as per the outbound interface. i'm doing this using a module processor. but the problem here is that v can download a file from an FTP using its API to a local file. I want to know where i can store this file on the XI server from where the module processor can access this file.
Any help wud b appreciated.
Thnx in Adv.
Anil

Anil,
Why do you go for module processor when we have file/ftp adapter? Is the file non-xml?
Btw, you can store the file anywhere and you can access it but make sure the OS service user have permissions over it.

Saving PDF file into application server

Dear all,
My requirement is retrieving a PDF file from application server and modifying the document and saving it back to the application server through BSP application.
I've retrieved the data from the application server and displayed it in the frame of BSP layout and modified the same (adding signature). We got stuck in saving back the signed document into the application server.
Can anyone guide me in saving back the modified document or how to get the modified file content through BSP.

Problem in saving a file in FTP server

Hi,
I am trying to move one zip file from an FTP directory to another. I use the below code.
OPEN DATASET gv_fname FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
                IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
                  DO.
                    READ DATASET gv_fname INTO gs_zip_bin.
                    IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
                      APPEND gs_zip_bin TO gt_zip_bin.
                      CLEAR gs_zip_bin.
                    ELSE.
                      EXIT.
                    ENDIF.
                  ENDDO.
                  CLOSE DATASET gv_fname.
                  endif.
*Now for saving this file on the other folder,
OPEN DATASET gv_arname FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
            IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
              LOOP AT gt_zip_bin INTO gs_zip_bin.
                TRANSFER gs_zip_bin TO gv_arname.
                CLEAR gs_zip_bin.
              ENDLOOP.
              CLOSE DATASET gv_arname.
           endif.
The file get moved successfully. However, when I download the file on to my desktop and when I unzip it, it gives an error message "Cannot open the file; it does not appear to be a valid archive'.
I also notice that there is a size difference between the original and the archived file as in the picture below.
I tries using the SCMS_UPLOAD and SCMS_DOWNLOAD function modules to achieve this and it works perfectly.
However, I did not find any documentation for these function modules and I am not sure if I can use them. I intend to run this program in the background mode.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Fixed it: Delete preferences.
First, I was wary about deleting preferences because I used EasyFind to search for "textedit" and found many files in different folders throughout the OS and user folders. I feared deleting the wrong thing.
So with the EasyFind window open with the search results sorted by date last changed, I opened TextEdit and then its preferences and made a minor change, saved it and then closed the app.
I then ran EasyFind again sorting by date last changed and the top two items were the only preference files that were changed. Deleted those two and now all is well.
EasyFind is freeware found in the App store. It's invaluable. I use it often.

Having trouble saving tiff files to server

Hi all,
I'm having trouble saving tiff files to our server (a mac pro running OSX 10.5.7 client not server). I get the error message 'could not save "filename" because write access was not granted. The disk in question is set to ignore permissions and the other 3 Macs on the network have no problems.
Bizarrely this only seems to happen when saving as a Tiff file, I can save as JPEG without issue! The file will usually save after a few attempts, sometimes six or seven save as' are needed.
This problem comes and goes, but at the moment its pretty bad.
This is becomming very frustrating as Tiff is our prefered format and we work as a team so have to save to the server.
Any ideas?

Just to expand on Buko's correct ansswer, this is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

Dreamweaver reports file "not found" when attempting to open files from SMB server...

User's work-files are hosted on a Windows Server 2003 SP2 volume accessed via SMB. She's been opening and saving the files from the server successfully in Dreamweaver for years from other Macs running Dreamweaver CS4.
Now she has an iMac running 10.7.4 and Dreamweaver CS6... and it's not the SMB problem you'd expect.
She mounts the server volume. She opens and saves files normally with full r/w permissions from any app... except Dreamweaver. For any file that she attempts to open in Dreamweaver -- whether from the Finder or from within Dreamweaver -- Dreamweaver pops up an alert reporting that the file at the file-path was not found. The same file is easily accessible from other apps and from the Finder. She continues to have full read/write access to the shared volume.
Local copies of the files do not have the problem. It only affects files hosted on the server and it only happens in Dreamweaver.
So, I create a new user account and everything works fine... The user mounts the sharepoint, opens a file with Dreamweaver... perfectly normal. Then she quits Dreamweaver and relaunches it... everything's fine. Repeatedly. It all works normally. She quits Dreamweaver and unmounts the share, then she mounts the share again and tries to open a file in Dreamweaver again... and it reports that the file was not found.
This is reproducible: If the server volume has been mounted and unmounted repeatedly under any user account, that triggers the error which continues occurring under that user account from that point on. A restart will not fix it. A safe-boot will not fix it. (In fact, restarting seems to trigger the problem by unmounting the volume.)
I tried trashing the entire contents of the ~/Library folder in one of the test-user accounts. It doesn't fix the problem. Once it strikes a user account, the only temporary fix seems to be using a new user account. And that's like a ticking time bomb just waiting for the problem to pop up again.
Any ideas?
TIA!!

I've seen on two computers so far. Looking at the mount point under unix, the share is being mounted at two different locations. This is normal behaviour for Macs when you mount two different shares with the same name.
From terminal I run:
df
Which returns something like
/dev/disk0s2                           1951845952 224463456 1726870496    12%    /
devfs                                         360       360          0   100%    /dev
map -hosts                                      0         0          0   100%    /net
map auto_home                                   0         0          0   100%    /home
//[email protected]/website 204360384 38067872 166292512    19%    /Volumes/website
//[email protected]/website 204360384 38067872 166292512    19%    /Volumes/website-1
map -fstab                                      0         0          0   100%    /Network/Servers
Notice that the share "website" has been mounted once as website, and again as website-1. This is the underlying unix name for the share, which is how most programs (99% sure including Adobe suite products) will reference files. So, if it thinks that the file is at /Volumes/website/site/index.html but can only see /Volumes/website-1/ then it doesn't know what to do.
The confusion arises because both will show in Finder as "website". Even more annoying is that Finder does not always unmount shares correctly, so that /Volumes/website might not be accessible but /Volumes/website-1 will be. As far as the user is concerned, the share "website" is still mounted, but as far as Dreamweaver is concerned, it isn't, although website-1 is.
It's the same share, same data, but is being referenced by different names, so does not seem accessible.
BUT
I don't have a solution yet, apart from force unmounting both (or rebooting), remounting, and checking that Dreamweaver is using the right share (perhaps by removing and readding from within Dreamweaver).
Tedious.

Saving Xcel files AFP

After saving Xcel files to the server AFP, Xcel creates what appears to be temporary or auto save files that can't be deleted. I can however delete the file in Terminal. The file name is a random sequence of letters and numbers (i.e. FC9FC100). When I try to delete the file, I get an error message "The operation cannot be completed because the item "FC9FC100" is in use." It is not in use. I don't recall this being an issue before upgrading to 10.4.10. Has anyone run across this?

What is "Xcel" ? Do you possibly mean Microsoft Excel ? If so pleas say so, no l33t speak here
The issue is with a truly brain-dead way in which Office apps support working on a fileshare (officialy, they don't.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302979
Look for a folder created at the top of the (any involved) sharepoint, "Temporary Items" or ".TemporaryItems" and give the group r+w permissions to that folder
Some suggest "chmod a+rwx .TemporaryItems" but that's ugly. Make a group that includes all your users,
chgrp yourgroup .TemporaryItems
chmod g+rwx .TemporaryItems
You might also try setting the Excel preferences ("general" section) default file location to a local folder (eg: local user's Documents folder).
In Word > Preferences > File Locations, set the "Documents" and "AutoRecover files" to a local directory.

Problem with saving data in text file in Application server

Hello Experts,
I am trying to save a text file in application server.When I text file have less that 60000 (i.e 59999) records, it saves the file successfully, but if records in text file (saved in application server) is more than 60000 (i.e 60002), it creates a new file at the 60000th record with the continued records.
Can anyone please advise, why it is creating a new file if records are more that 60000. I tested it with 59000 records in my internal table and it is working fine. I have not given any restriction in my program to create a new file if records are more than 60000.

Saving report output to a file on the server.

Hi,
We are using BI Publisher Standalone version 10.1.3.3.1.
Is it possible to schedule a report to output to a file on the server?
I want the whole report to be saved as a file on the server.
This is somewhat similar to bursting to a file system, but, I don't want to split the output.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Nanda

Yes, use the scheduler and schedule the report,
do the bursting into FTP or
schedule the report to run and run it into FTP as a single FILE.
First option, you need to provide the query , with FTP server name, username, password etcccc.

Saving a file in a particular folder over the tomcat server

I have a java class in the background of a JSP which creates an XML file and saves it.
Furthermore another class picks that file and processes it. While running this program on my local computer it is obviously working fine but in order to run it on a tomcat server or for that matter any server, I want it to save the XML file in a particular folder, for example:
tomcat_home/webapps/myapplication/ xmlfolder / something. xml
so that my other class can easily pick up the file and I dont need to change the location each time I change the server.

You can get the context root(the place from wher the aplication is running) of your application and then save the file somwhere, but i >>woulden't recomend that. But this is what you are looking for.How ?
You can also just save the file, it will be saved in a temp directory. (use this only if the file is a temp file not for storing purposes)Just saving the file somehow doesnt work for me as the folder where a class is saving a file by default is somehow different from the folder where another class is trying to pick a file by default. Even if I give no path
Other option is just to configure a tomcat system variable that specifys an folder. You can get that property from your application and >>then save the files there.Im not able to consider this one because the application will be put on different servers by different people later so they would all then need to configure their systems just to read a file. I was sure there were better ways. :(

I need help with Tiger 10.4.11 saving / deleting files on a Win 2003 Server

Some of my Mac users are experiencing extremely slow file saves to my Windows Server 2003 server. It is not specific to file types. Illustrator, Quark all take forever and the file size is not the issue either. They are also having to force quit Finder after attempting to delete files from the Server.
I have found that if they boot into Safe Boot they can delete the files without a problem. As soon as I do a normal login the problem returns.
The problem seems to be specific to the machine. If user A logs on to her Mac she has problems deleting files from the server. If she logs into a Mac that isn't having problems (using her login) she doesn't have problems. If User B who has no problems on her Mac logs into User A's Mac then User B will have the same problems.
In order to rebind the Mac to the Active Directory I had to remove the Mac from AD. So I don't think it's the Computer's SID. I even tried unbinding the Mac, changing it's name and then Binding it to AD. Same problems.
I thought it was the Mac and just wasted a day wiping the Mac and reinstalling everything on it, but when I went to delete a file from the Server, finder locked up and I had to force quit finder.
I even changed the IP Address of one of the Macs having problems, but that didn't work either.
I've done a Permission repair as well with no change.
Anyone help?

OK, there was a System Events in the System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items, but after removing it and restarting I still had to force quit finder after attempting to delete some files off of the server.
I do not have (or can't find) the /private/var/run/startupitems.
The Library/StartupItems has 2 entries: AdobeVersionQueCS2 and IntegoCommon, both of which I removed the other day and tried to delete files after rebooting with the usual (not good) result.
In the System/Library/StartupItems there are 16 items. I will list them as I am not sure what shouldn't be there. I believe that they should all be from Apple though:
Apache
AppleShare
AuthServer
CrashReporter
Disks
FibreChannel
IFCStart
IPServices
Metadata
NetworkTime
NFS
NIS
PrintingServices
RemoteDesktopAgent
SNMP
Thanks for your help so far.

Problem saving files to X Server G4 10.39

We are using an X G4 server with OS 10.39 which does not have ACL. When users save files to the server they are getting a message that says:
The file can not be found.
The file was opened by XXX on Computer xxx on 00/00/00 at 0:00.
Users must then save the file to their desktop first and then copy file to the sever manually.
Has anyone else seen or had this issue? with a G4 server running OS 10.39. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like the bug in AppleTalk in 10.4.6. The basic solution is to downgrade the AppleTalk back to 10.4.5. You can find instructions by doing a search on the discussion boards for Photoshop.

Is anyone having an issue with saving Adobe Photoshop files to the server?

Unable to save Photoshop files to the server. Has anyone faced the same problem?

Two options. Doing either one worked.
1st option
In Photoshop preferences under File Handling set Preview to Never.
This has been working for me all day. Maybe a couple of times I got something about not being able to save because of not having access to the file, but then the save as dialog comes up and hitting okay saves the file.
Wasn't a big deal.
2nd option
Create a file (it didn't exist) in the /etc folder named nsmb.conf file, with the contents below.
[default]
streams=no
Here's where I got the info.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4590780#
Currently I'm doing option one, as it only turns off a feature in Photoshop and doesn't reconfigure anything in the OS.
It's probably just a byproduct of an OS being updated (lots of things happening) and Apple will remedy it in 10.8.1. At least this works for now.

Saving a file back to the server

Hi All,
Well...I have opened a .pdf file from a server (Tomcat).Typical hyperlink on which I click and the pdf opens.I make changes to it.I have the acrobat writer installed on my machine.And now I want to save these changes (or the file) back to the server from where it opened.
How will I do it?
I hope some onez there to help me.
Thanx a lot in advance

You can't do this directly, and for a very good reason - you wouldn't want any- and everybody writing files on your server, would you?
What you can do is to write a servlet that accepts the file as input, and saves it away in the required place. How you write that is a bit beyond a quick answer.
To get the document to the servlet, the quickest and dirtiest way is to use <input type="file" ...> from an HTML file. This will attach the document to the request. AFAIK, this only works in IE, though. Otherwise, you can write an HTTP client that posts the document. Again, this is beyond the scope of this answer.

Photoshop CS6 program error saving layered files

I recently updated my adobe software and I am still getting issues with saving layered files. I keep gettting program error - only occasionally. Sometimes saving to my desktop works and other times it doesnt. Other coworkers are experiencing same thing ever since they updated. It happens when working on a layered file for any length of time and need to save it out as a layered photoshop file. We are forced to flatten and save as a tif and loose our layers. I think it has something to do with background task but not sure...

Drag the file to your desktop, open the file there, do your edits, save, and then drag back.
Let us know what you are working off. If server, what server software are you using. System preferences >> spotlight, uncheck all items.
