How to check whether a file is present in the UNIX directory of app. server

Hi,
        I am creating files in the UNIX directory in the application server using :
                   CONCATENATE '/sapmnt/RD1/interfaces/client670/'
                   p_fname '.CSV' INTO w_filename.
           OPEN DATASET w_filename FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
          LOOP AT t_output1.
                  TRANSFER t_output1 TO w_filename.
          ENDLOOP.
         CLOSE DATASET w_filename.
I am unable to check whether a file with the same name exists or not. How to check the duplicate state of the file.

You can use the following fm
RZL_READ_FILE
or
use OPEN DATASET FOR INPUT.

Create XML file on application server (unix directory) from internal table

Hallo everybody,
I have got the following problem:
I am working with <u><b>release 4.6C</b></u> and have got to create XML files from HR master data and organizational data respectively.
This takes place in 3 steps:
1.     Collect the data in an internal table
2.     Convert the data to XML format using the function module 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
3.     Download the data
If I download the converted data, which are in an internal table, to the presentation server via the function module WS_DOWNLOAD and open it with the Internet Explorer, everything is ok.
If I download the converted data to the application server, i.e. into a unix directory via
open dataset, loop at internal table, transfer working area to file, close dataset
and then try to open it, this is not possible, because after the last tag some unreadable characters, e.g. a square, appear that arent supposed to be there. Thats what my colleagues told me, for I havent got access to the server.
I have no idea where these characters come from and how I can get rid of them. I guess that either I have to modify (how?) the table with the converted data before the download or I have to use another way to convert the data. For the second way I would probably have to work with an XML class or an XML interface. Unfortunately II am not an expert in working with classes so sample coding would have to be rather detailed.
Heres some more information about how I work with the conversion function module:
call function 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
       exporting
            i_field_seperator    = lv_field_seperator
           i_line_header        = lv_line_header
           i_filename           = lv_xml_file
           i_appl_keep          = ' '
            i_xml_doc_name       = lv_xml_doc_name
       importing
            pe_bin_filesize      = lv_result
       tables
            i_tab_sap_data       = gt_data
       changing
            i_tab_converted_data = lt_tab_converted_data
       exceptions
            conversion_failed    = 1
            others               = 2.
lv_field_seperator = X.
lv_xml_doc_name = Personalstammdaten Publikation
lv_result: type i
gt_data: fields: PERNR, PERSG, PERSK etc.
types:
begin of truxs_xml_line,
    data(256) type x,
end of truxs_xml_line.
types:
truxs_xml_table type table of truxs_xml_line.
data:
lv_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_line,
lt_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_table
open dataset lv_xml_file for output in binary mode.
loop at lt_tab_converted_data into lv_tab_converted_data.
transfer lv_tab_converted_data to lv_xml_file.
endloop.
close dataset lv_xml_file
lv_xml_file: /usr/users/.../.../Personendaten_2004-11-02.xml
Hope the information is detailed enough! Otherwise let me know. Thank you in advance.

Hi Raja,
tried the "TEXT" mode, but that didn't help.
There are still characters after the last tag, that are not supposed to be there including a date that is not
the creation date of the file.
Thank you for your help.

Get_file_list to list content of UNIX directory

Hi all
I am trying to list the files in a UNIX directory using the get_file_list action. Not getting anything back, but action is not reporting error.
In the folder configuration box i have used all combinations of \ and / but none do anything. I can list files on our Mii server using
server\share but this is a windows machine.
I think i have a couple of options
1. get FTP set up on UNIX server and use the FTP_get_file_list action and move files to Mii server for processing.
2. get something like SAMBA set up on UNIX to allow windows style file sharing.
Any other ideas out there?

Hi Les,
Set the "Get_File_List_0" with the following parameters:
Folder: "web://PROJECT"
Mask: "*" for list all files
http://wbhelp.sap.com/manufacturing/xmii_120/en/44/7108DF9EA03ABEE10000000A155369/content.htm (for more details)
Or use a XMLQuery
server://XMII/Catalog?Mode=ListFolders&Folder=[Param.1]&Content-type=text/xml
[Param.1] = PROJECT
Hope this help.

How to store the File Name from a Unix Directory into a ODI variable?

Hi,
I have built a ODI package with the following steps:
1. ODI is polling for a flat file in a Unix directory. I have used OdiFileWait tool for this purpose. Here the file name is not fixed, so I am using wild character (*) to poll for file. Example: DF*ABC1*.DAT where the first wild character denotes 1 letter and the second wild character denotes 2 digits.
2. In the second step, if the file is found, I am moving the file to ODI file server path (../oracledi/demo/file). Here I have used ODIFileMove tool.
3. Then I am using an ODI Interface to Load the file data into a Oracle database table.
4. I am using a Process log table to keep the log for each step I am executing in ODI that is ODIFileWait, ODIFileMove, Interface etc. for each file. In this table a row needs to be inserted after ODIFileWait tool gets the file, with the File Name and File Date. Later on this row will be updated as the consequent steps are executed.
Here is my concern, I need to get the exact File Name of the file after ODIFileWait gets the file and I need to insert that in the Process Log table after the ODIFileWait step gets a file. So if I can store the File Name in a ODI Variable, I can insert it into the Process log table at this point. This I am not able to do.
The files are coming in a different directory (not in ODI file server path), So after getting the file it is moved to ODI file server path (../oracledi/demo/file)
The Files which I am processing are fixed length format. Also, the File name and File Date is stored in the 1st Record(Header record) of the files.
Kindly provide me suggestions to implement this in my code.
Thanks and Regards,
Anik

Look at this link -http://odiexperts.com/getting-one-or-several-unknown-files-from-a-directory
change the command to fetch the ls command and write into File and then using either java or jython break the data and fetch the file name and date and insert into log table.
(or)
you can use the os.system command and get the complete ls command into string and then process and insert it.
Let us know if you need any other help.

Information Broadcast Email File - Where is the file in Unix directory?

Hi,
I am using Information Broadcasting to email the BI report. We use Unix as the application server.
In transaction SOSV, I can get detailed information on the file (attachment) and the send status. There is a requirement to encrypt the file in Unix server. Does anyone know where the file resides in Unix when the report is generated from Information Broadcasting? What's the Unix directory?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I added the path of the servlet.jar to the CLASSPATH. Now my modified
file content is as follows:
WINDOWS 2000 Environmental variable changes:(CLASSPATH)
C:\Program Files\PhotoDeluxe BE 1.1\AdobeConnectables;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\common\lib\servlet.jar

SET CLASSPATH=.;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\common\lib\servlet.jar
With this I am executing the command: javac test.java. However, it is still giving lot of error messages
All the messages are 'cannot resolve symbol' associated with the Servlet class, Servlet Request, Server Exception etc. In the very first error message it states that: 'package javax.servlet does not exist'.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

How to create pdf files in UNIX directory from oracle reports

I would like to know how to create pdf files in UNIX directory from oracle reports.
Thanks,

Please make your question more clear . Also mention the reports version.
1) If you are runnning reports in Unix, you can give
.... destype=file desformat=pdf desname=<filename>
in command line
Please refer docs below.
2) If by your question you mean
"My reports server is running in Windows but I want to ftp my files to Unix after creating it"
then the answer is that you can use pluggable destination "ftp"
.... destype=ftp desformat=pdf desname=<ftp url>

Moving one file in unix directory path into another unix directory path

Hi All,
I have issue regarding moving one file in one unix directory into another unix directory.
Actual requirement is as below:
I have two unix directories 1. /var/opt/working 2. /var/opt/error
Now i have a file [ FILE1 ] in [/var/opt/working] working directory.
In code checking i found it is error file now in my abap i want to move/send this file [FILE1] to another unix directory [/var/opt/error].
How can solve this issue in ABAP code.
Can anybody solve this issue!
Thanks,
Deep.

1. Open the 1st file using Open dataset for input /var/opt/working
2. Get the data into internal table
3. Open the 2nd file using Open dataset for output /var/opt/error
4. TRANSFER the data from the internal table to 2nd file
5. CLOSE 2nd file
6. Close 1st file
7. Delete 1st file using DELETE DATASET dsn.

File Adapter cannot read from Unix Directory

Hello Everyone,
I have created a Bpel process that should read txt files from a Unix directory, but its not doing its job.
I have tried this process on windows and it works fine.
I got the following error from the process log in my bpel console.
my process compiles fine but I am getting this error: The value specified for the input (Physical/Logical)Directory activation parameter has an invalid value "/temp/test"
Also if there is something wrong with my path, please let me know.
Thanks in advanced,
AJ

Hi,
The path /temp/test might be wrong. Suppose you have installed SOA at /home/oracle/product/soa/10.1.3.1/<> , where /home is the root folder, and if you have your test folder at /home/temp/test, give the location in file adapter as /home/temp/test.
Let me know if you still get this error.
Thanks
Ramana.
