Sender file communication channel polling only when the file is written

Hi guys,
I have the following scenario:
I have developed an XI interface that takes a .txt file from SAP R/3's file system, usr/sap/trans/ and delivers it into another ftp location. The problem that we face is that the file is written into source directory from an ABAP program. As a result, XI go and polls into source directory when the file is not completely written, or when it is empty, which blocks the process.
Is there a way to force XI in order to poll the source directory only when the file is complete?
We have thought of exporting the file into a name that XI does not expect and as soon as the file is complete to rename the file from inside ABAP program into what XI expects.
However, the command inside ABAP changed the Code page of the file and we cannot see some special characters in the file that is delivered to the ftp location.
Any ideas??

XI: Sender JDBC Communication Channel is not getting picked the records

Hi All,
Here I 'm facing an Issue with my sender JDBC communication Channel. Previously it was working fine but It is not Picking the records from the JDBC table.
Communication Channel is in active mode only.
I have checked in RWB communication Channel monitoring there i didn't get any error or success messages but channel is showing healthy status only(Green)
But i had created the new communication channel..with the same parameters which are in the older communication channel.. and sender agreement level also i had changed.. so now new channel is working fine.... I didn't understand what is the problem with previous communication channel.
Thanks

Hi yadav,
do you have TWO CCs polling at the same time via JDBC?
This could be the problem --> a conflict between both CCs.
Switch off ONE CC:

Hi Vishu,
Find out in what encoding the file is in. for that download Notepad++ and open the file with in.
In Encoding tab you will see the encoding format.
1. If its not UTF-8 or ANSI then you should set the correct encoding in Sender File channel.
2. Check for BOM characters which will not be visible directoly.
3. Use Notepad++ to convert the content to HEX and check for hidden values. i bet there will be some Encoding BOM in the file which is creating problem while picking the file.
Since you are using SWIFT module: try to validate the XML file using Altova XML and check weather is correct.

Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

AimeeLove,
I have a solution for you. You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock. I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
12 = 0
1 = 250
2 = 500
3 = 750
4 = 1000
5 = 1250
6 = 1500
7 = 1750
8 = 2000
9 = 2250
10 = 2500
11 = 2750
In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
myVar = setInterval(function(){
     var pos = sym.getPosition();
     if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
          sym.stop(0);
          clearInterval(myVar);
},10);
When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline. When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0. Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
In the mouseout section, put this...
sym.play();
clearInterval(myVar);
It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
Repeat this for each point on the clock. To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar. I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range. 50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it. So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Sender FTP communication channel

Hi experts,
We have had the following problem twice with two different comm channels:
A sender FTP communication channel stops polling for no apparent reason. There were no errors and the status remained green. After I stopped and started the communication channel in the runtime workbench the adapter picked up all the remaining files and processing finished ok.
Anyone had this problem before? Any ideas for a solution?
Thx,
Philip

HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. MY question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this aren't working

HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
Help!

That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

Error in Sender JDBC communication channel

Dear All,
We have an interface in which we are fetching data from SQL database through sender JDBC communication channel.
Last week SQL server was upgraded from 2000 to 2008 and the communication channel has stopped working and is giving the following error:
Database-level error reported by JDBC driver while executing statement 'SELECT * FROM mstemp_tbl WHERE Active='0''. The JDBC driver returned the following error message: 'java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 1 (""): Data type 0x38 is unknown.'. For details, contact your database server vendor.
Please let me know if any JDBC drivers are to be installed for SQL 2008 or how can we resolve this.
Thanks,
NJ

Hi,
You may need to update your JDBC driver to 1.2 or 2.0. Kindly see supportability matrix on this link (question #2):

Preview will not print 8.5" x 14", only when the computer feels like it

This problem has gone on for too long and I don't know what else to do. I have flyers that I cannot print because preview refuses to recognize the document size correctly and consistantly, and I have no other program that can print to our copier.
This happens with any PDF that is not 8.5" x 11". Both 8.5" x 14" and 11" x 17" exhibit the same problem. First I open a PDF in Preview, then I change the document size in Page Setup to "US Legal" and scale of 100% (the scale is always wrong because it is automatically resizing the document to fit on 8.5" x 11"). Then I go to print, check under Paper Handling and under Destination Paper Size is says "Use documents paper size: US Letter". This does not change no matter how many times I visit Page Setup and no matter how many times I save and re-save the file.
At random it will recognize the document size as "US Legal", but this happens only when the computer feels like it, at least that's what it seems like because there are no other settings that are different between one file and another that would cause it to print one as Letter and the next one as Legal.
Some PDFs are created in Photoshop, while other are created in Acrobat. I cannot print directly from Acrobat because of some weird problem with our copier; I cannot print from any Adobe CS3 software.
I don't know what to do. Any help is greatly appreciated.

com.apple.print.custompapers.plist didn't exist on my machine, but com.apple.Preview.plist did. I moved it to the desktop as you suggested, opened the files in Preview and this time it worked. Thanks so much!
I tried looking at the file, but it didn't make any sense to me. Must have been something in there that caused the problem, though.

Error at sender JDBC communication channel

Dear All,
While executing JDBC(MS-Access)-PI-RFC interface, we are getting error in sender JDBC communication channel. The error is as following:
Error during database connection to the database URL 'jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=
sappidev\Datatran\Database.mdb' using the JDBC driver 'jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver': 'com.sap.aii.adapter.jdbc.sql.DriverManagerException: Can not establish connection:: SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified'.
I have checked various posts on forums and as per those no drivers installation is required to access MS-Access database and I am not able to find any post which could solve my problem.
Kindly guide me on what might be the problem and how this can be resolved.
Regards,
NJ

Hi Nishu,
That error ALWAYS means your DSN name is incorrect or can't be accessed for some reason (permission). The ODBC part says that the bridge is working.
But that DSN is 100% wrong or cannot be seen by the user account that the server is running as. Make sure you have a system DSN and not a user one.
You can refer these....

How to set errorDelay parameter in sender JMS Communication Channel?

Dear XI/PI Experts,
Do you happen to have a documentation on how to implement the errorDelay parameter and other general parameters in the sender Sender JMS communication Channel? Do you happen to have a step by step guide or pdf that I can use?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Kind regards,
Grace

Hi Thanks for your replies.
What I need to do is to implement this bullet point:
¡ errorDelay
The default value for this parameter is 0.
This parameter determines how long the system waits before processing further messages if an error occurs. In transactional processing, it can make sense to specify a certain time period, for example, because messages with errors remain in the queue following a ROLLBACK.
In which part of the Sender JMS Comm Channel will I implement this?
Should I put this under tab /Parameters/Processing/Error Handling Settings or should this be under /Parameters/Advanced/Additional Paremeters?

Why is Fault Policy working only when the BPEL's transaction is requiresNew

Hi All
I've defined Fault policy & fault bindings files for faults in my BPEL process. I'm using Oracle SOA Suite 11g.
But the fault management framework is properly working only when the transaction property(bpel.config.transaction) of the BPEL is set to "requiresNew" in composite.xml
When i modify it ot required, its not working, i.e. it is waiting for some period and erroring out. I could not manage these errors from the EM as we do for those in Fault Management Framework.
Why is this behavior?
I went thru this article, but could not understand it
Transaction and Fault Propagation Semantics in BPEL Processes(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/integration.1111/e10224/soa_transactions.htm)
Can someone pls explain this.

Ravinder.S

Hi Ravinder,
Q.my scenario is like SOAP to proxy. while using receiver proxy also we are planing using AAE method.
SOAP to Poxy in this case.
For sender SOAP system, we can generate the WSDL link in ID part.
for Reveiver proxy give the integration engine URL.
http://IP:PORT/sap/xi/engine?type=entry
how to generate the url for this and what is the transaction code
There is no transaction code for generating the URL.

Text field with promp msg only when the field is empty

I want to make a TextField with prompt message but The problem with google code was that the prompt msg is shown only when The textField is not clicked, I want to show the prompt msg even when the text field is clicked,when I type a letter inside the textField it vanishes and when i delete all of it, I'll see the prompt msg again and I want to Load the cursur at the text field when the page is loaded, How can I achieve that?

Not working!
One new problem I have confronted, I have edited the htm file with the previously mentioned code, yet, when i started flex again, the code was not there?
Is it a derived file?
If so how can I make permanent changes there?
i used the code:
private function onLoad(event:Event):void
focusManager.setFocus(this.textId);
As using
private function onLoad(event:Event):void
shows the red cross i.e. error at a particular step at the
<mx:Application.......
and the error shows as
Incorrect numbers of arguments. Expected 1.
I guess its a very simple problem yet I don't know why I am getting so complex.
I have faced certainly a nice problem, it sometimes works and sometimes doesnt,
when I run from the flex bulider it works, If I click on the html file it doesn't.. It may happen it wont work again in future.

ronicr76,
First it would be helpful if you post the exact model, year and OS version you have.
> The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed<
So that light is the sleep indicator and tells us that the laptop is going to sleep when you close the lid. That would be normal behavior so the machine is still working. Possibly you're experiencing a backlight failure. With the machine supposedly "on" use a flashlight to carefully examine the screen. Do you see the desktop? Yes? machine is still running and something is wrong with the backlight.
You should immediately backup your computer or at the very least pull vital files off. With the computer hooked to another Mac (The way this is done depends on the exact MacBook, E.g.FireWire 800 to FireWire 800.) Then you restart the computer and hold the "t" key down. This puts your MacBook into "target mode":
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
Once your files are off try an SMC reset:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Are you able to get the backlight back on by opening and closing the display? Yes? Broken backlight cable refer to qualified service place. Even if it doesn't come on and you can still see the desktop with a flashlight it is still probably the backlight. Could be the a backlight problem also.

Hello Mogulman46,
So what that means is when you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you may have an alert depending on the setting and how you are using your iPhone. So if it is set to Always, then that means that no matter what, your iPhone will not be notified. If it set to Only while the iPhone is locked, then that means that you will not get notification when your iPhone is locked but you will get notifications if your iPhone is being used. Also keep in mind the settings All Calls From can be set to certain contacts like Favorites, Everyone or no one. If you are using Do Not Disturb and you do not need it, then turn it off.
Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
