T-code for delete file from application server

Hi all!
Please, has any t-code for delete file from application server? For upload exist CG3Z, for download has CG3Y. And for delete? Has anyone?
I need to delete file from application server in QA system and i don't want to create a program for this because i will need to transport a request from DEV to QA.

I don't have contact with basis team.
The FM EPS_DELETE_FILE support directory name with max 60 char. My dir. has more than that. I need a transaction for this.
Anybody know if this transaction exist?

Viewing files on application server

Hi,
Does anyone knows any path or transaction thorough which I can view all the files on application server ?
Thanks.

Hi
Try this
DATA FNAME(60).
FNAME = '/tmp/myfile'.
OPEN DATASET 'myfile'.
OPEN DATASET FNAME.
This example works as long as your R/3 System is running under UNIX. The program opens the file "myfile" in the directory in which the R/3 System is running, and also opens the file "myfile" in directory "/tmp". However, you would have to change the filename for other operating systems. For example, for OpenVMS, you could write the following:
FNAME = '[TMP]myfile.BIN'
OPEN DATASET 'myfile.BIN'.
When you access sequential files on the application server using the following statements
OPEN DATASET
TRANSFER
DELETE DATASET
the system automatically checks against table SPTH. This table regulates general read and write access from ABAP to files, and whether files should be included in security procedures.
In table SPTH, you can prevent read or write access to generically-specified files, independently of the R/3 authorization concept. For all other files (that is, those for which read and write access is allowed according to table SPTH), you can use the R/3 authorization concept to check authorizations. To enable you to do this, you can specify authorization groups in table SPTH for program-independent user authorization checks.
SPTH contains the following columns for this purpose:
PATH
This column contains generic filenames. This means that the files on the application server to which an entry in this column applies, retain the attributes specified in the remaining columns of the line.
Suppose SPTH contains the following three entries in the column PATH:
/tmp
/tmp/myfile
The entries are then valid as follows:
First line: All files on the application server apart from the path /tmp
Second line: All files on the application server in the path /tmp apart from the file /tmp/myfile
Third line: The application server file /tmp/myfile
SAVEFLAG
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column are included in security procedures.
FS_NOREAD
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column may not be accessed at all from ABAP. This flag overrides all user authorizations. If you set FS_NOREAD, FS_NOWRITE is also automatically set.
If the flag is not set, it is possible to access the files from ABAP if the authorization checks are successful (see also the FSBRGRU column and Authorization Check for Particular Programs and Files).
FS_NOWRITE
This column is a flag that you set using X.
If the flag is set, the files specified in the PATH column may not be accessed for changing from ABAP. This flag overrides all user authorizations.
If the flag is not set, it is possible to change the files from ABAP if the authorization checks are successful (see also the FSBRGRU column and Authorization Check for Particular Programs and Files).
FSBRGRU
This column contains the names of authorization groups.
An authorization group corresponds to the first field (RS_BRGRU) of the authorization object S_PATH. You can use the second field of the authorization object S_PATH (ACTVT) to check whether the user has authorization to read (value 3) or change (value 2) the files in he authorization group.
Entries in FSBRGRU specify groups of files on the application server. You can control the access to files by assigning authorizations for the authorization object S_PATH.
Unlike authorization checks using the authorization object S_DATASET (see Authorization Checks for Particular Programs and Files), the authorization check against the authorization object S_PATH is independent of the ABAP program used to access the files. Furthermore, the check is not restricted to individual files. Instead, it extends to all of the generically-specified files in the PATH column.
If there is no entry in the column FSBRGRU, the files in the column PATH are not assigned to an authorization group, and there is no authorization check against the authorization object S_PATH.
If the automatic check for a file access fails, a runtime error occurs.
Suppose the table SPTH contains the following entries:
PATH
SAVEFLAG
FS_NOREAD
FS_NOWRITE
FSBRGRU
X
X
/tmp
/tmp/files
X
FILE
With these settings, ABAP programs cannot access any files on the application server apart from those in the path (/tmp).
All ABAP programs can read from and write to the files in that path.
Only users with authorizations for the authorization group FILE can use ABAP program that read from or write to files in the path /tmp/files. These files are also included in the security procedure.
With the above table entries, the following program extract would cause a runtime error for any user:
DATA: FNAME(60).
FNAME = '/system/files'.
OPEN DATASET FNAME FOR OUTPUT.
Or you can use transaction AL11

Hi Experts
my requirement is i have to send the payment advice created from F110 to respective vendors as mail in Alias name and i am able to send it succes fully with BTE2040. but the client came up with new requirement that we have to save this payment advice form send to vendor in applicattion server in the same format ( i.e., PDF form). i tried searching for any user exit (or) BTE but couldnot get so, can you please give my your suggetion, how to achive this task.

Is there any way to upload Tariff Code (with multiple XML files) from application server?

Hi All,
Is there any way to upload Tariff Code (with multiple XML files) from application server?. Its urgent.
Regards,
Jatin

Hi Jatin,
Yes, of course you can upload multiple files for tariff codes.
This can be done by the below path:-
SAP GTS Cockpit(tcode-/sapsll/menu_legal)-->Customs Management-->Classification-->Classification Master Data-->Upload Tariff Code Numbers from XML file(tocde- /SAPSLL/LLNS_UPL101).
In the above area after browsing and choosing the first file, please select multiple check box to choose more files as well. Then you can further select your application server and upload all those files in one go.
PS:- Although, we have an option to upload multiple such files but actually we should avoid multiple file uploads due to various reasons. Hence, please take utmost care during such procedure.

Aman

when i execute this program:
I get the following error msg:

May i know what is the problem?

If you are sending an email, the receiver type should be U (internet mail address type). From your code it appears that you have input it as 'A'. I am not sure if the error message is related to this. Have you checked in transaction SOST, whether an email has been triggered from your program? At what point of execution is this error message triggered?

I have tried all possible ways and unable to get solution.
Thanks,
Shrikanth

Hi ,
In ECC 6 if all the unicode patches are applied then UTF 16 will defintly work..
More over i would suggest you to ist replace # with some other * or , and then try to see in debugging if any further # appears..
and no # appears then try to split now.
if even now the # appears after replace statement then try to find out what exactly is it... wheather it is a horizantal tab etc....
and then again try to replace it and then split..
Please follow the process untill all the # are replaced...
This should work for you..
Let me know if you further face any issue...

To access pdf files from application server using web.show_document

Hello!
If my pdf file is copied in Oracle_home/forms90/java directory.Then using web.show_document i can access the pdf file.But I can't copy all the pdf files in /forms90/java directory.We have lacs of pdf files which I want to keep in my own directory.But my requirement is if my pdf file is in /home2/docs directory in (Linux application server) ie in my own directory where I store all the pdf files.Then web.show_document does not open the pdf file.It says page cannot be displayed.For that I think we have to configure the directory /home2/docs directory as a webserver.From otn I got something like forms90.conf file in application server where we have to set virtual directory mapping etc.If the pdf is in local machine then in orion-web.xml file we have to mention real path and save the file and shutdown oc4j instance and restart it again.I tried it.But it is not working.Can u give me step by step instructions to solve this problem.I found a few links in discussion forum.But is doesn't work out.My pdf file is in /home2/docs directory in Linux application server.Please treat it as urgent.
Regards
Jayashree

Hi Sandeepmsandy,
There is no available code sample for this scenario. You may write your own.
Step 1: Get pdf URL from sqlite database. Please refer to the following MSDN blog and see a code sample.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/robertgreen/archive/2012/11/13/using-sqlite-in-windows-store-apps.aspx. Note, you need to retarget the project to 8.1 and then get two sqlite packages from NuGet before building this sample.
Step 2: Use some special classes to get file from serer.
HttpWebRequest can help download small pdf files. For more information to see
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/de96a61c-e089-4595-8349-612be5d23ee6/download-file-with-httpwebrequest?forum=winappswithcsharp. It’s easy for use, but if you want to download the larger or many files, it’s recommend to use
BackgroundTransfer namespace. The classes in this namespace provide a power way to transfer files in the background. See a code sample from MSND.

Open hub error when generating file in application server

Hi, everyone.
I'm trying to execute an open hub destination that save the result as a file in the application server.
The issue is: in production environment we have two application servers, XYZ is the database server, and A01 is the application server. When I direct the open hub to save file in A01 all is working fine. But when I change to save to XYZ I´m getting the following error:
>>> Exception in Substep Start Update...
Message detail: Could not open file "path and file" on application server
Message no. RSBO214
When I use transaction AL11, I can see the file there in XYZ filesystem (with data and time correspondent to execution), but I can´t view the content and size looks like be zero.
Possible causes I already checked: authorization, disk space, SM21 logs.
We are in SAP BW 7.31 support package 6.
Any idea what could be the issue or where to look better?
Thanks and regards.
Henrique Teodoro

Hi, there.
Posting the resolution for this issue.
SAP support give directions that solved the problem. No matter in which server (XYZ or A01) I logon or start a process chains, the DTP job always runs in A01 server, and it causes an error since the directory doesn´t exist in server XYZ.
This occurs because DTP settings for background job was left blank. I follows these steps to solve the problem:
- open DTP
- go to "Settings for Batch Manager"
- in "Server/Host/Group on Which Additional Processes Should Run" I picked the desired server
- save
After that, no matter from where I start the open hub extraction, it always runs in specified server and saves the file accordingly.

Creation of Flat file in Application Server

Hi,
Can you please clarify what is Logical file path and Physical file pathe.
Also how to create a flat file in Application Server with Logical and Physical file paths.
Thanks

Hi Yasaswini,
Physical file is what you see from the OS level.
Logical file is what ABAP code can call certain functions to read/write.
Transaction FILE would link them together. Typically the logical path ends with "<FILENAME>", and the logical file refers to the logical path. You can check the help for more info.

hi,
You can use the transactions CG3Y or through program u can do like this..
DATA: BEGIN OF IT_FILE OCCURS 0,
                LINE TYPE STRING,
           END OF IT_FILE.
OPEN DATASET <file_name> FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
        IF SY-SUBRC IS INITIAL.
          DO.
            READ DATASET<file_name> INTO IT_FILE-LINE.
            IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
              APPEND IT_FILE.
              CLEAR IT_FILE.
            ELSE.
              EXIT.
            ENDIF.
          ENDDO.
        ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET <file_name>.
Download it to local system using FM - GUI_DOWNLOAD

Problem while dowloading the file from Application Server

Dear Experts,
I am facing the Problem while downloading the file from Application server.
We done the automatic function while saving the invoice, this will create an idoc, and this idoc is written in the Application Server.
I am running the Transaction AL11 and select the record, and from menu --> List, i am downloading into TXT format.
But for some segments, the length is long, and so the last 3 to 4 fields values are not appearing in the File. Even though i am unable to view the values in the file before downloading. But i can view in IDOC.
Please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Srini

but our user will use the Txn. AL11 and they will download from there
Educate the user On a serious note, tell him this is not how data from app server should be downloaded. You can ask him to talk to the basis team to provide him access to the app server folder where the file is being stored.
I can set the Variant and put this in background, But always the file name will be change, Like we use Time stamp in the File name.
You can't automate this process by scheduling in BG mode. This is because the in BG mode you can't dwld the file to presentation server.
Hope i'm clear.
BR,
Suhas
