Signature capture overwritten files..?

Hi guys,
I've just enabled succesfully the signature capture functionality in order to test it on my laptop. However, I noticed that the sign is captured in "C:\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure\work\sigdata.gif" and afterwards every new sign overwrites the old one, so actually only the last created one exists.
1) Does it means after every signing the user should synchronise..?
2) Call of MAM30_80 unfortunately ends with
Return code from RFC BAPI Wrapper call:Error occurred during character conversion
do you have any idea how this can be overcome..?
3) As far as I can remember from somewhere in the coding, the maximum size the sigdata.gif can have is 4K, right?
Best Regards,
Lalo

Hi LAlo,
well, yes, the file is overwritten, but that is not that problematic!
The procedure is as folows: you save the file to the local disk - then with the screenchange MI reads the file and puts it into the SyncBO with reference to the actual data. So when you create the next signature, it is the same procedure, but a new syncbo is crearted. So yes, the GIF file itself contains always the last signature, but in the persistence you have all the GIFs since the last sync.
A gif can be larger 4KB, but it is unusual that it is. This is due to the size, the GIF format as such and that it is only 2 color. (Black/white) putting that into account, the size is usually smaller. But cause MI can only handel 255chars per field, the GIF is splitted into several items. Look into the persistence, there you can see that.
What confuses me a little is your error message - I think it happensat sync time and it is the error thrown in the middlewqare, cause you talk about the BAPI wrapper? If this is the case, go briefly again to the installation sequence and check if you have done the setup and installation correctly and if all notes are in. And then: you can look into the data on the middleware in MEREP_MON. Open the create handler in the backend and enter the data manually - this will give you a better idea about the error and will give you a hint how to solve it. Unfortunately it was morking always fine for me, so I can not really be helpfull on this bit, cause I never had that error.
But hopefully the other 2 points got more clear for you now.
Regards,
Oliver

  • Failed to load Signature Capture Applet

    Hello Experts!
    I am implementing MAM3.0 laptop.I created the Signature Capture addon as per the note 897289. When i try to use the signature capture functionality, i get a message failed to initialize the applet and the applet doesn't get loaded.
    Please can anyone help me with this.

    Hi,
    well, could have several reasons.
    The most common one is, you unfortunately use the wrong files. Either CAB with SUN or JAR with Microsoft.
    I think the reason is: you have changed the IE JVM from Microsoft to SUN, meaning, that with the installation of JDK1.4 or later, you have overwritten the pre installed JVM from Microsoft with the one from SUN - so in that case you should use the JAR file and tell the setup procedure that your JVM is SUN and not Microsoft. At least that was the case for me last time as I faced this problem. Some users have mentioned the oposite problem. Even they are on a PC they have used the JAR files - but using the Microsoft VM in IE. In that case......
    At least: check the version of the file and the setup procedure and try both version - as I said, that was my problem last time.
    Hope this helps to solve the issue.

  • Signature Capture in MI 7.0

    HI All,
    I am working in SAP MI 7.0 and I wanted to know about the Functionality of Signature Capture.
    I found Note - 897289 - in which it explains how to install/deploy the functionality.
    My First Question is - What is this exact functionality? I mean what will I achieve with it, functionaly?
    My Second Question is: Does it require a touch screen? I mean will it work on a normal desktop, I mean How do you capture a signature on a desktop.. I thought it was by using a stylus and literally signing your name against an order or something.
    Kindly Clarify. It will be very helpful.
    Thanks,
    Ankur

    I am refining my Query:
    1) Standard MI 7.0 - What exactly is this Signature Capture Functionality? Like a User can actually 'sign' on a touchscreen.. ? Where is this signature stored in the backend?
    Which functional Scenarios can use this Signature Capture?
    2) In the MAM Backend Custmizing, in Order Type Profile - In Determine Order Processing: No of Signatures How does this particular setting affect the client behavior?
    3) So does this require a touchscreen then? So will it work, if we have MI running on desktops?
    4) If not a touch screen, that signature pads will work? They will generate a file and we will have to send it to the backend.. as an attachment?
    5) Kindly elaborate on the digitised signatures if they can be used to provide the same functionality?

  • How Signature Capture Works...

    Hi All,
    I am using MI 7.0.
    I understand the functionality of Signature capture. It is kinda transferring a file (which contains the signature) from the client to the backend.
    According to my understanding, the binary file of signature is broken into chunks of 255bytes and stored as items of a particular SyncBo, passed to the middleware and backend and reconstructed as an image again.
    If this understanding is right, I want to use the same functionality to send any file from the client to backend and also from the backend to the client.
    I had posted one thread before too which clarified many things- Re: Attaching a pdf file in the backend
    I have some more questions, In signature capture, I assume, the breaking of a image into smalled chunks and recollecting of them happens automatically.
    How can I do that with other files, like any other image?
    What is the process of breaking image and recollecting into the backend?
    (Like creating new SyncBOs, BAPI Wrappers for it and all, etc.)
    How will this process be automated in a way that on the client, the user just browses the image from his PDA, attaches it, and it goes to the back on next sync.
    I am not sure if the question is clear, Please ask for more clarifictions..
    Thanks
    Ankur

    Hi Ankur,
    well, lets start this discussion with a short description:
    The split process does not relly happen automatically as you said. Any file on the PC is stored in bytes and can be read as a usual text file. Java does not care i you read a textfile, an image, an app or whatever - it is just a 8bit byte structure....and so it can be displayed as a text structure. So if you show the image on the screen and you want to send it to the backend - mark it and start the process. This process reads the file form disc as a textfile, then splits it into chunks of 255 chars. So you have a string array in memory. This can be stored as SyncBO - same as the long text functionality for any other syncBO. a Text field with the chars and an index field - to know the correct order at the end.
    That is all, storeit in an syncBo and sync. It goes to the backend. There you need to put the information together and store it as file. No issue - just development.
    The same happens the way back: split the info in the backend, sync send it to the client, there take this information and store it to the file system of the device. Then you can display it.
    Hope that makes it clear - rest should be straight forward development.....

    Oliver

  • MAM 3.0 Signature Capture

    Hi,
    We have implemented MAM 3.0, however when we use the signature capture functionality, the applet gets loaded and we can capture the signature , but when we hit the save button , nothing happens, when we hit the clear button the captured signature is cleared.
    Can anyone help me with locating the problem
    Warm Regards,
    Priya Ghosh

    Hi Priya,
    Because you are running signature capture(applet) in Laptop Client, system will not allow applet to access the system resources. You need to set the policies for accessing the system resources by using the policy tool available under \j2sdk1.4.2_08\bin
    Just Click on the executable policytool.exe , now you will get a pop up window to set the permissions....
    Click on Add Policy Entry /then Add permission tabs
    now select All permissions and click ok followed by done.
    now save the file -
    >>
    note: with the name .java.policy at the C:/documents and settings/ all users(or either any specific user that you are using)
    Hope this help you.

    I have embedded the necessary XML in a mobile app to support the Signature Capture Form Control, however, I do not understand how to post the data back into the database and what form the data will be.
    Does anyone have a simple example of what you need to do in the backend DB to process the signature data?

    Hello Kb,
    How to edit the 'Register Plugin/Unregister Plugin' file after copy to desktop?
    Copy the files to desktop, right click ,select "send to" option and send it to either notepad or textpad. You should be able to edit this using notepad or textpad.
    And in /windows/creme/bin, there isn't the 'cremePie.dll' file, where to get it?
    Cremepie.dll will be in /windows/creme/bin. If it is not there,then creme installation is not successful.  Try reinstalling the the creme again and after installing the creme, perform a soft reset of the device so that all the Dll's are loaded .

  • Cannot publish Flash Updates Verification of file signature failed for file SCUP 2011, SCCM 2012 R2 and WSUS all on same Windows Server 2012 machine

    I am attempting to distribute Adobe Flash updates using SCUP 2011, SCCM 2012 R2, WSUS ver4 and Windows Server 2012.  Everything installs without error.  I have acquired a certificate for SCUP signing from the internal Enterprise CA.  I have
    verified the signing certificate has a 1024 bit key.  I have imported the certificate into the server's Trusted Publishers and Trusted Root CA stores for the computer.  When I attempt to publish a Flash update with Full content I receive the following
    error:
    2015-02-13 23:00:48.724 UTC Error Scup2011.21 Publisher.PublishPackage PublishPackage(): Operation Failed with Error: Verification of file signature failed for file:

    I have redone the certificates three times with no luck.  I can import metadata, but any attempt to download content results in the verification error.
    TIA

    Hi Joyce,
    This is embarrassing, I used that very post as my guide when deploying my certificate templates, but failed to change the bit length to 2048.  Thank you for being my second set of eyes.
    I changed my certificate key bit length to 2048, deleted the old cert from all certificate stores, acquired the a new signing cert, verified the key length was 2048, exported the new cert to pfx and cer files, imported into my Trusted publishers
    and Trusted Root Authorities stores, reconfigured SCUP to use the new pfx file, rebooted the server and attempted to re-publish the updates with the following results:
    2015-02-16 13:35:44.006 UTC Error Scup2011.4 Publisher.PublishPackage PublishPackage(): Operation Failed with Error: Verification of file signature failed for file:

    Is there a chance this content was already created and signed with the old cert, so installing the new cert has no effect?  In ConfigMgr software updates I see 4 Flash updates, all marked Metadata Only (because they were originally published as "Automatic." 
    No Flash updates in the ConfigMgr console are marked as downloaded.  I can't find any documentation on how the process of using SCUP for downloading content for an update marked Metadata Only actually works. 
    Comments and suggestions welcome.

  • Making a form "signable" using a signature capture pad or tablet?

    Hi,
    Our system right now is generating a very simple form to be printed, signed by a customer, and then filed.  We're looking to go paperless with the system and just have the customer sign a signature capture pad (I don't know if I'm calling this device by the right name - I mean the flat pad or touchscreen that is signed with a plastic tipped pen, like when you swipe your own credit card.)
    We then want this "captured" signature to be placed in the right location on the form, and the form saved in our records for retrieval and printing later if necessary.
    Right now, this form is a plain webpage styled with a "print" style sheet.  It's just a few paragraphs of plain text so alignment isn't critical.  I can switch to using a pdf form if that makes it easier.  The key is, we want this to work as a web-based system, so ideally if pdf is necessary it would work on machines running Reader or Acrobat.
    I've never worked with one of these signature pads.  How do they generally hand data to the computer?  Is it an image?  Would this image then have to be upped to the server and then dropped onto the form?  Or is there an easier way?
    Any suggestions would be great.  I enjoy studying these things on my own, but I can't even find anything to study in this case lol.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    I think you're not getting an responses because you're not asking in the right place.  This is a CF forums, and what you're asking has nothing to do with CF at all, other than your question relates to web-based forms, and CF is a web-oriented technology.
    If I was faced with your requirement, I'd be checking the input device's website or community, and see what they've got: someone will have done this already, or it might be documented right out of the box.  You need to apporach this from the perspective of "how do I get this particular device to integrate with HTML forms and webpages" not "I have a web form... how do I get it to work with this input device" (if you see the subtle difference there: just one of where you start your investigation).
    Either way, CF won't know or care about how the client-side form is filled out,  all it will see is some form fields which have been sent to it via a POST or a GET HTTP request.  In fact it doesn't even care that there's a form involved.  All it deals with is HTTP requests, and the data therein.

    As our PDF files are generated on a HPUX (unix) system, and quite 10000 files a day will be generated, do you have a solution do add signature to thses files directly on our unix system ?
    Thank you for help.

    Hello,
    just to let you know that I had a contact with DataLogics who developped a new toolkit that seems to manage digital signature .
