Sent file from app. server vie mail

Hi all,
is there any standart program/function module that can be use to sent any file from application server via mail (as attachement), or i have to write it for myself? I have tried to search for it, but without success.
Thank you,
Ondrej Sustacek

Hi Ondrej,
Once I had the same requirement. Please feel free to use my code. I placed it for you in Wiki:
[Sending Application Server file via emial as attachement|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/UwVqBg]
Small description how it works is included with the code.

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.

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
WITH SMART LINEFEED.
DO.
READ DATASET file_rtf INTO string.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
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>
Thanks

Issue with uploading flat file from App Server

Hi,
Im loading a flat file to an ODS.
When I try to load in from my Local Workstation, it works fine.
All data is loaded green.
However, when I try to load the file after i copied it to my App Server, it cannot load.
The error is get is:
Error 2 while splitting CSV data: see long text
Message no. RSDS_ACCESS011
Diagnosis
Error 2 occurred while splitting the CSV data string.
1 = Could not find a closing escape character
2 = Invalid escape character
3 = Conversion error
4 = OTHERS
The thing is that it worked fine (exact same file no changes) when I loaded from my Desktop.
Appreciate any help or input.
Rgds,
Gary.

Gary,
You can load it from the App server. Just check the file name whther you are giving it correctly and also check the readio button from App Server.
Go to AL11 (Tcode) and cross check whther your file is there. See in which directory your file is there. Mention the same path in the extraction tab in IP.
Thanks...

Do you want to return the file to the user on click of button or something?
Then, use web_show_document with http link which you are speaking about.
Else download the file to client using Webutil.

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

Validate the file from app. server before uploading

Hi All,
I am trying to upload the data from application server into an internal table.
My requirement is I need to validate the data before I upload the data into internal table.(i.e I open the file from application server using FM Open_Dataset.Now before I upload the data into an internal table,I need to first validate each record in the file).I have some 7-8 lakhs of records in the file.
Any input for the above requirement would be of great help
Regards,
nsp.

hi Nsp,
I guess validation of data will be only possible after uploading the data in to an internal table ...

Move file from App server to same server on different path

Hi All,
I have to move a file from Application server to a folder in the same server....
pls tell me how can i do this....
its very urgent....
Thanks...............

Hi
First you read the file in output mode using Open dataset and Read dataset statement with the initial application server path.
Then write this data back to another file path by opening the file in Input mode and using Transfer statement.
Example.
open dataset <file1> mode output encding default.
if sy-subrc = 0.
do.
read dataset <file1> into wa_itab.
if sy-subrc = 0.
append wa_itab to itab.
else.
exit.
endif.
enddo.
open dataset <file2> mode input encding default.
if sy-subrc = 0.
loop at itab into wa_itab.
transfer wa_itab to <file2>.
endloop.
endif.

Webutil download file from app server

i am calling a report from forms. report uses text_io to write delimited data to app server disk. report info also displays in browser using web.show_document. when i call report from forms i run report, use web.show_document to display in browser and then call webutil to download file to client form appserver. sequence would be in a manner as below:
run_report_object (report_id);
when report = finished then
web.show_document;
end if;
webutil.download_file (filename);
the problem is this: the web.show_document code runs but while this is running the webutil code also is running. but the report has not completed yet so when webutil runs looking for the file the report is supposed to write it cannot find it since the report has not completed. web.show_document fires off a browser session and then immediately runs the webutil code. but i dont want the webutil code to run until the report has successfully completed. does anyone know how to integrate these two functions into one step instead of running the report and allowing it to complete and then executing a separate step to download the file.
thank you

You might want to try this code snippet....
--- code to set parameters, declare variables etc...
l_report_return := run_report_object(l_report_id);
l_report_status := report_object_status(l_report_return);
WHILE l_report_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
     l_report_status := report_object_status(l_report_return);
END LOOP;
IF l_report_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
     /*Display report in the browser*/
     web.show_document(......);
ELSE
     message('Error when running report ');
END IF;

Downloading a file from App Server to User's Desktop

Hi All,
I know that there are many threads on file upload and download :-)
I have tried to browse through most of them and could not find my solution.
The requirement is to place a file in the unix app server directory and allow the user to download it using a link, to the user's desktop. In case you think that this has already been answered in an old thread, kindly give me the pointer. Any sample code for doing this, would be great.
I know how to upload a file from desktop to table/app server. I know how to download a file from a BLOB column in database.
Thanks,
Amit

You would not be able to use file upload or download beans, as they interact with the database and not the filesystem.
You would need to write a simple file reader routing in plain java.
