HTTP to File Scenario using URL parameters.

Hi,
I am working on a HTTP to file scenario where POST method is hirring the XI server with authentication parameters.
CAD application is trying to hot our XI server using POST Method and the application does not have ability to send XML payload to XI server directly.
So we are simply receiving parameters in plain text in inbound payload.
I need to convert this payload to XML format and am tring to work this out using dynamic configuration.
But It is throwing parser error.
BaseRuntimeException: Fatal Error: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser: No data allowed here: (hex) 73, 75, 62(:main:, row:1, col:3) at com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.rt.xparser.MTSaxHandler.run(MTSaxHandler.java:157) at com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.rt.xparser.XParser.run(XParser.java:73) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:770)
Here I have to use HTTP sender adapter.
Please suggest how can I acheive this.??

Hi Mark and Maciej,
The Inbpound payload we are reciving is of the kind:
sap-user=<UserID>&sap-password=<Pwd>&Param1=Sachi&submit=submit
As in HTML we ar using hidden parameters to given authentication details and submmit button to hit XI serrver.
Can you please help me to out how can I add prolog and epilog.
How can I change my payload to XML format.

Error in the filename response vaule when doing Http to file scenario

Hi,
 I am doing Http to File Scenario. I am trying to retrieve the source filename in the structure field "filename". I have defined a UDF for that and It worked well for file to file scenario.
Now for Http to file scenario if i want to get the filename, I am getting "null" value in the response.
I am using Http Client test tool for testing the scenario.
My output is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:FileTarget_MT xmlns:ns0="http://soacity.net/HTTPtoFile">
<MsgId>DD74CE4AE01AC6F19C0900199912BCA0</MsgId>
<filename>nullnull</filename>
<Body>hello world.</Body>
</ns0:FileTarget_MT>
I got nullnull because i am trying to retrieve Source directory and filename.
Desired Out put
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:FileTarget_MT xmlns:ns0="http://soacity.net/HTTPtoFile">
<MsgId>DD74CE4AE01AC6F19C0900199912BCA0</MsgId>
<filename>/FileServer/Sender/test.xml</filename>
<Body>hello world.</Body>
</ns0:FileTarget_MT>
For File receiver i am using FTP Parameters.
I got the correct output for file to file scenario because i had placed the file in the source directory, so that XI can read the source directory and file name. but now for Http to file scenario i am using the Http client tool, where in i have an option to paste the payload directly or upload the file.
Any Inputs would be appreciated.
Regards,
Varun

Hi,
I Have defined the structure as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_Source_FILE xmlns:ns0="http://soacity.net/HTTPtoFile">
 <Message>
 <Id/>
 <Head>
 <Id/>
 <Filename/>
 </Head>
 <Body/>
 </Message>
</ns0:MT_Source_FILE>
My requirement is
"The HTTP adapter would recieve a HTTP document. It has two main tags: head and body; there are two options : either specify the filename in <head> and data in <body> or you send the full message as payload into <body><message>.... </message></body>"
So How do I proceed in Defining the objects.

Testing HTTP to File scenario

Hey guys
i m testing a HTTP to file scenario for one of our clients and the test seems to be working fine when i test it in RWB under Integration Engine,MONI is chequered as well as i m getting the file on receiver side too.
but when i test it by making use of the HTTP client which i got from the followin link
/message/266750#266750 [original link is broken]
it gives and error saying http-status 404 not found.
the URL which is getting created is
http://scosap005.sap.com:50100/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=urn%3ANOVInvoiceToSCO&interface=MI_Invoice_sender&service=BS_test_invo&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=EO&queueid=httpclient&sap-user=&sap-password=&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN
is this the same URL our client is gonna use to post the message to our XI server?
also why am i getting error in the second testing?
thanx
ahmad

Hi,
1) Did you maintain Client, userid, password, and lang information in SICF transaction -> sap/xi/engine ? Double click on service and check whether you have entered correct information.
2)Access the trace file and search for traces with severity ERROR, WARNING or stack traces.
If we do not find an error in the log file or the error message does not explain the problem sufficiently, access the default Trace. The default trace file contains detailed messages for developers. Extract the relevant trace information e.g. using the time stamp or the message ID.
If this does not explain the problem in more detail, increase the trace level and reproduce the problem. Then restart message processing using the message display tool. Mark the message and select repeat.
3)Check the Note-803145
4) 404 is an HTTP response code that indicates that the resource in question could not be found. Usually this is due to an incorrect URL check all URLs.

Http to File Scenario

Hi,
I am doing Http to File Scenario i.e, Receive message via HTTP, Process it and write the file in the target.
1. As Http is the sender, I need not create Sender Communication Channel and Sender Agreement. But While Creating other objects in the ID, we need to mention Sender service, so what shd i mention there.
2. Can we do Asynchronous scenarios for Http to file Scenarios, because I have done Http to RFC scenario before.
3. When I use the HTTP Client tool to test my scenario, I upload a file or paste an xml payload and test, then will the file be created in the target directory, as Receiver is the File Adapter.
4. Do I need to create any Technical and Business System for HTTP sender in SLD, or should I create a Business Service in ID.
Regards,
Varun

Hi,
1. As Http is the sender, I need not create Sender Communication Channel and Sender Agreement. But While Creating other objects in the ID, we need to mention Sender service, so what shd i mention there.
---> You need to use the Business Service on sender side. Similar to HTTP --RFc scenario, It is required to identify the Sender side service.
2. Can we do Asynchronous scenarios for Http to file Scenarios, because I have done Http to RFC scenario before.
--> Yes You can have the asynchronous scenario. with HTTP to file
3. When I use the HTTP Client tool to test my scenario, I upload a file or paste an xml payload and test, then will the file be created in the target directory, as Receiver is the File Adapter.
--> Yes it will create the target file. If youhave applied any File Content Conversion then you can align the XML format to flat file format also....
4. Do I need to create any Technical and Business System for HTTP sender in SLD, or should I create a Business Service in ID.
---> Its better if you create the Business Service. Generally for SAP landscape Business system is used..and here in your scenario sender is HTTP and there is no need of Business system...Go for Business Service..
Thanks

Error in HTTP to file scenario

Hey guys
we have a HTTP to file scenario in which our client has to send the Invoices over HTTP in XML format,when we test the scenario from within our landscape we are getting the output file correctly but when we test from the client site,we get an error message saying that the file has missing semi colon (,the URL which we are getting from the local HTTP client is something like this
http://scosap005.sap.com:8001/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=urn%3ANOVInvoiceToSCO&interface=MI_Invoice_sender&service=BS_test_invo&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=EO&queueid=httpclient&sap-user=&sap-password=&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN
and the one which we are getting from the client is
http://xx.xxx.xx.xx:8001/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=urn%3ANOVInvoiceToSCO&interface=MI_Invoice_sender&service=BS_test_invo&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=EO&queueid=httpclient&sap-user=&sap-password=&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN
why am i getting this error?
thanx

Hey guys
i m having a very strange problem with my scenario,we are doing a HTTP to file scenario,now as both the sender and receiver have same structure i havent done any mapping,client is sending XML over HTTP from another location which is not in our landscape,he is using web methods Business connector .when he send us the XML message to our XI server some stuffs are added at the top of the payload,its something like this
namespace=urn%253ANOVInvoiceToSCO&interface=MI_Invoice_sender&service=BS_test_invo&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=EO&queueid=httpclient&sap-user=nov_test&sap-password=xi_test&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN&
these are actually the parameters which are used in the URL to send the XML to us.but because of this i m unable to process the XML .
so my XML looks something like this
namespace=urn%253ANOVInvoiceToSCO&interface=MI_Invoice_sender&service=BS_test_invo&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=EO&queueid=httpclient&sap-user=nov_test&sap-password=xi_test&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN&
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Invoice transactionPurposeIndicator="Original">
 <InvoiceProperties>
 <InvoiceNumber>0094372098</InvoiceNumber>
 <InvoiceDate>20070319</InvoiceDate>
 <VendorNumber>VENDOR #</VendorNumber>
but when i try this scenario from within our landscape it works fine and nothing is added on top of XML.
they are sayin that nothin extra is being added from thr side and their XML does not have the extra addition on top.
how should i solve dis problem?
its urgent
thanx

HTTP to File Scenario: execute Test Tool (html) but any received message?

Hi all,
I have configured the HTTP to File scenario in SAP XI 7.0. When i execute the Test Tool (HTTP_Client_Adapter.html), i don't see any message in the XI Server. I don't know the Test Tool which i used for the test work correctly, because when i clicked on 'Send' button, i don't get any message in the XI Server?
The Configuration Scenario is OK when executing the Configuration Test in ID.
Could you please tell me how i can know the Test Tool is execute correctly?
The Test Tool which i used in the link below:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/66dadc6e-0a01-0010-9ea9-bb6d8ca48cc8
Thanks a lot in advance,
Vinh Vo

HI,
In XI You can go to RWB (from XI server homepage)->Comp Monitoring -> Display All ->Int Server-> Int Engine
In the bottom, you find 3 tabs, select the test message tab to post messages.
Pls note that, when you need to test, you should have created the scenario in IR/ID (and u can use the details of Receiver Determination ID) to fill in the details.
You can refer this:
/message/266750#266750 [original link is broken]

Http to file scenario generate "Acknowledgement not possible"?

Hi.
On PI7.1 we built a http to file scenario and used the RWB "Test message" functionality to test the interface.
Now we get a "Acknowledgement not possible" in sxmb_moni. How can we switch this off.
thanks

Hi
while sending request use either EO or EOIO for Asynch.
EO and EOIO, processing occurs asynchronously and the client only receives a confirmation of receipt with HTTP status u2018200u2019.

File to File scenario using Transport Protocol FTP Problem

Hi,
my scenario is a file to file scenario using Transport Protocol FTP
there are 3 systems involved
a. computer 1 ( My system-source)
b. computer 2 (XI server)
c. computer 3 (Target system)
I want XI to pick file from computer 1 and post it to computer 3
I am logging on to XI server from computer 1(thro SAP GUI),
Sender communication channel :
Transport protocol:FTP
Messsage protocol: file
In FTP connection Parameters:
Server: computer 1 IP address
port:21
User name and PW---> I have given computer 1 Username and password.
Connection mode: permanently

Folder: C:\ftproot\output
filename : given
In Receiver Communication Channel
Transport protocol:FTP
Message protocol: file
In FTP connection Parameters:

filename scheme: given
When I activate the scenario file is not getting picked from the source
In Adapter Framework: Message says up and running No message processing now
How to check FTP server is up and running on computer 1 (source system)and Computer 2 (XI server)?
What could be the problem ?
Thanks
dushanth

Hi
Consider that I dont have FTP installed on my computer. According to this blog
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/08/01/along-came-a-file-adapter-mr-ftp-and-rest-of-the-gang
I have configured.
In sender comm channel I have given Ipaddress of computer 1 (which has a file to be picked)
In Receiver Comm channel I have given IP address of computer 3 (in which file to be posted)
and computer 2 is the XI server
Computer 1 has FTP installed
1. XI server should have FTP installed or not ? IF yes is it FTP client or FTP server or Guild FTP (according to the blog is enough)
2. Computer 3 should have FTP installed or not ?
Please help me I am really confused.
Thanks

File to file transfer using UDF

Hi
i am doing one scenario,file tofile transfer using UDF.
I will write one UDF which will read the whole content from text file and write to the target path.Ok.so i am mentioning both sender and reciver URL in UDF.is this the correct way.
then if am writing URL in UDF then is it again need to create communication channel for both.
and how i will do mapping using UDF..plz let me know weather my concept is correct or not

Hi,
You can do this with out UDF and through File--File Simple Scenario
What is your Typical requirement to use the UDF here.
If there is no Specific UDF Requirement means , we can follow Normal Scenario to pick the file from One place and to place it at another folder

3. metadata: by using idx2.
DOUBT: here it is asking for IDOC type and source port, i can give the idoc name but i am not getting what i need to give to source prort field, please check and let me know, please find the SAP and XI system details below and suggest accordingly.

File - to - JDBC- to - File Scenario using Stored Procedure

Hi,
I want to do File - to - JDBC - to - File scenario, because I'm getting data in a file format and that data i want to load in a database. Database level i have a stored procedure. if any exceptions. my stored procedure will give the Response. so, now i want to store that resposne in a file..
for this. what are the steps we have to use. is this scenario will comes in Synch ronous or Asynchronous ? and I have searched the web blogs also. al the blogs are related to Http or Soap with JDBC . so, please give me some input help about this...
how many data types we have to create... any body having step step procedure for this...
regards
Jain

Hi,
You will need a BPM in your design as Sender File adapter does not support Synchronous messaging. Refer my answer in this thread (page 2) and have your design accordingly....instead of RFC you will have a file adapter as the ultimate receiver.
Re: BPM FILE--> JDBC--> RFC
Just take care of below things:
1) JDBC message format is as per the guidelines
[Message format for sending req to JDBC|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2e/96fd3f2d14e869e10000000a155106/content.htm]
2) check for the format of your source and target file format (if it is a Flat-file with a xml structure that XI can parse then no need of FCC but if it is a CSV file then you will need FCC)

Abhishek

Idoc to File scenario using Party

Hi All,
I have to configure Idoc to File scenario .This file needs to be posted in EDI Subsystem .My receiver partner type is LI.That means i need to use Party here.So please let me know the step by step solution to do this.Specially i want to know the configuration in Party Identifier and Receiver Communication channel Identifiers.
How the control record values from idoc are transferred to EDI File structure and how will XI identify one of the many customers to post the file.
All valuable suggestions will be rewarded the points.
Please send me the documents for such scenario with screen shots.

Hi,
Let me see if I had you requirement correct.
When the Idoc is sent from R3, sender partner type is LS and Receiver Partner Type is LI.
If yes,
1. Create a Party in ID.
2. The Agency , Scheme and Identifier will have values,
Agency --> Receiver Business System name or Business Service Name to be used for File.
Scheme --> ALE#LI
Identiier --> Value of the RCVPRN field in the idoc control Record. Basically the Receiver Partner Name.
All the Configuration In ID will use this Party as the Receiver Party and the corresponding Service asthe Receiver service.
No need for a sender party as sender partner is LS.

Bhavesh
