Target Directory & File Name parameters in Receiver File Adapter with ASMA

Hi Experts..
I have the following question....
What am I suppose to inform in the Target Directory & File Name obligatory parameters in Receiver File Adapter if I am using ASMA to fill it? Is it any dummy value?
Also, if you have any step by step guide/blog to forward on how to use ASMA in file adapter I will be greatful.
Thanks in advance,
Daniela

You can give any dummy value in dir and file name... Just go through these blogs

Temp File Name Schema in Receiver File adapter

Hi,
I have a scenario where i have to write the file in the temperaory location before writing it to the FTP loacation, I have selected the Processing Parameter as "Use Temperory File" but when the file gets created it is padded with the Message Id, is thr any option to get the file name as the temp file name without the Message Id or timestamp.
Please let me know if any one has come across such scenario.
thankx,
shree

Hi,
Under Write Mode, specify whether the target file is to be written directly in the specified directory. If an additional step is to be added using a temporary file, choose Use Temporary File.
You can specify a naming scheme for the temporary file under Temporary File Name Scheme.
This schema is used to determine the prefix and extension of the temporary file; to ensure a unique file name, a time stamp is also added to the name during processing.
The schema xitemp.tmp, for example, results in the file name xitemp<timestamp>.tmp
So you have to customise the file name in schema.

Dynamic file name (Date) in Receiver File Adapter

Hi,
can any one tell me how to create outbound file name with receiver file adapter in format like Name_22-08-2006.dat. I need from a current Date in the name of the message (without any other information). In message payload I dont have that date. Is it possible to use variable from user defined function in message mapping for that name?
Regards,
Naycho

Naycho,
that's exactly what I've managed to perform using DynamicConfiguration. Check these links:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/03fe1bdc7821ade10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
Particularly, I've created a Java API for using setDirectory and setFileName methods through mappings. I use XSLT with java enhancement because it's a million times easier to parse and get node values with XSL than pure java.
I'm writing a blog on the subject, if you don't resolve the problem until it's out, let me know.

How to generate file name dynamically in receiver FIle adapter? Please help

Dear Experts,
   I have a scenario where I need to generate output file with the name dynamically pulled from the XI payload.
   In receiver File communication channel I don't see any option where we can specify the XML path for the file name.
   For example:
   If my inbound XML structure (inbound interface) is like below:
   <filename>file123.txt</filename>
   <RootNode>
         <Element1>Product123</Element1>
   <RootNode>
From this I need to pick the filename value and generate the output file with the same value.
How can I achieve this? Please help!
Thanks & Regards
Gopal
Edited by: gopalkrishna baliga on May 3, 2011 1:10 PM

Gopal,
You can use DynamicConfiguration class for this.
You need to write UDF for this and with input of filename you want to set and map this UDF to the top level node.
Refer the below famous blog from Micheal:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14
You can also use Variable substitution to get value from payload, search SDN on this.

Thanks in advance

There is nothing wrong in your content conversion parameters. This is pure editors interpretation for the next line character.
I would do in java program to fix this issue using '\r\n'   You might want to try and see how that helps for notepad editor.

How write the Outbound file name in the Inbound file

Friends,
I have a scenario like this.
Outbout filename - sample.txt
In sample.txt, i have having data like 20
Inbound filename - vivek.txt
i need data the like sample, 20
(NOTE: sample is the outbound file)
How to get this scenario.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Vivek.

Hi Vivek,
If your PI is of SP14 and more you have an option called Adapter Specific Message Attributes.(ASMA) in communicatoin channel configurtaion, Which will help you in capturing the Sender file name during runtime.
So you will have to enable that option (ASMA) in Commchannel and capture file name in UDF using Java Code with the help of sap related API and map it to the target field which u would like to get populated.
follow the thread it has the discussion about acessing the Source file name.

Flat file connection: The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid

I'm trying to execute a SSIS package via SQL agent with a flat file source - however it fails with Code: 0xC001401E The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
It appears that the problem is with the rights of the user that's running the package (it's a proxy account). If I use a higher-privelege account (domain admin) to run the package it completes successfully. But this is not a long-term solution, and I can't
see a reason why the user doesn't have rights to the file. The effective permissions of the file and parent folder both give the user full control. The user has full control over the share as well. The user can access the file (copy, etc) outside the SSIS
package.
Running the package manually via DTExec gives me the same error - I've tried 32 and 64bit versions with the same result. But running as a domain admin works correctly every time.
I feel like I've been beating my head against a brick wall on this one... Is there some sort of magic permissions, file or otherwise, that are required to use a flat file target in an SSIS package?

Hi Rossco150,
I have tried to reproduce the issue in my test environment (Windows Server 2012 R2 + SQL Server 2008 R2), however, everything goes well with the permission settings as you mentioned. In my test, the permissions of the folders are set as follows:
\\ServerName\Temp --- Read
\\ServerName\Temp\Source --- No access
\\ServerName\Temp\Source\Flat Files --- Full control
I suspect that your permission settings on the folders are not absolutely as you said above. Could you double check the permission settings on each level of the folder hierarchy? In addition, check the “Execute as user” information from job history to make
sure the job was running in the proxy security context indeed. Which version of SSIS are you using? If possible, I suggest that you install the latest Service Pack for you SQL Server or even install the latest CU patch.

Problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter

Hi All
I have a problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter.
This is my recordset structure: Header_Record,1,Claim_Record,*,Check_Rec,1
These are the content conversion parameters:
Header_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Header_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Claim_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Claim_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Check_Rec.fieldSeparator = ,
Check_Rec.endSeparator = 'nl'
In SXMB_MONI, i can see that the data is correctly extracted from proxy, and correctly mapped to receiver message, and i see a checkered flag (success).
But, Adapter status is RED with the following error message:
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter '1.fieldFixedLengths' or '1.fieldSeparator' is missing
In communication channel monitoring, i get the following error message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages
What is going wrong here? Can anyone please tell me?
Thanks

Question about pass file name and path to file write adapter

I need to pass file name and path to file adapter for write. I got partial answers from thread Re: Get File name using File Adapter , but seems InboundHeader_msg or outboundHeader_msg only takes file name, how do I pass file directory?
since I still have to specify file format (like xxx_%xx%.txt) in the file adapter wizard. Will this name conflict with what the name defined in InboundHeader_msg ?
Similarly, how can I pass a file name and path to a file synchread adapter?
Thanks,

Just overwrite the filename in the WSDL file that was generated

When someone other than myself downloads an image from my web album, a dynamically generated file name replaces the original file name. How I can prevent the original file name being replaced during the downloading process?

When someone other than myself downloads an image from my web album, a dynamically generated file name replaces the original file name. How I can prevent the file name being changed during this downloading process?

Hi Glenyse,
Here are my steps.
1. I upload multiple image (jpg) files onto my photo album.
2. I select the "sharing" by email option for this album.
3. I enter the recipient's email address.
4. The recipient receives my message and clicks on the link.
5. The recipient accesses my photo album and clicks on one of the images.
6. The image opens up to its own screen.
7. The recipient selects the "download" and then save file option.
Here is the part I do not understand. For some reason, during this "download" process, the original name which I have given to the file is replaced by different name. So I was hoping that someone knows how to prevent the file name from being changed during the "download and save" process.
Much appreciated if you can help me find a solution to this problem.

Get File name of the inbound file during mapping

Scenario: to read the file name of the inbound file (which has date required for the mapping) during runtime.
The requirement is to read the date of the inbound file (passed to the XI pipline by the file adapter) and populate the same in the outbound mapping structure.
Any idea about how to do this?
(I went through few options of using java.util.map. not successful yet)

Hi Anand,
I posted the same question a time ago, without any help....
Can I find out the full filename of input file in message mapping?
Posted: Nov 23, 2004 1:00 PM
I have in XI 2.0 the following scenario :
In the inbound fileadapter I read my input file. The filename of the input file is part fixed, part variable (Like INDATA01.txt, INDATA03.txt, etc).
So in my Adapterconfiguration, I specify the filename with a wildcard (INDATA*.txt).
What I now want to do, is in my Message Mapping use the full filename , so I can do something different for every filenumber. Is there a way where I can get the full filename available in my message mapping (I did not find the filename in the XML in the message trace).

yes you can use /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMPORT_TEXTS via LSMW
In the SAP system, there is no uniform rule for the structure of the actual text key Textname. However, in order to be able to maintain the structures and fields, you have to know what the structure of text name as well as the values for text object and text ID are.
Procedure
       1.      Display a text of the required text type.
       2.      Branch to the editor.
       3.      Choose Goto > Header.
The Text header dialog box appears.
Result
In the Text header dialog box, you gather the required information.

Assign Logical file name for the physical file path through Program

Hi all,
I am having a physical file which is getting generated dynamically. It is having the date and time stamp in its name which is added at runtime.
Now I need to assign a logical file name for the physical file path through the program.
Is there any FM or any other method to assign the same.
Gaurav

I think it is not possible. becuase the date & time added at runtime. so if you check the table PATH you can find filename and their definitions
