Unable to deploy custom adapter module in PI 7.31

Hi pros,
I created a custom adapter module to split some complex input files to multiple messages. We use a SAP PO 7.31 java-only installation. I followed this document to create my adapter module:
How to Create Modules for the JEE Adapter Engine
I know it is for PI 7.1 but a colleague of mine said that he was able to create a running adapter module for PI 7.3 following the guide. I created the following projects:
EAR project references the EJB project:
Project facet of the EJBproject:
ejb-jar.xml config:
application-j2ee-engine.xml (in EAR project):
When I try to deploy my module, I get the following error:
Java version:
NWDS version:
Any hint is appreciated! What can be wrong? What can I check again?
THANKS!
Message was edited by: Stefan Münchow

I am not sure if the version is the problem. We have PI 7.31, support package 14, patch level 0 and NWDS 7.31 support package 12, patch level 4. The version of NWDS is lower than the version of the PI. According to Note 1599298 the error occurs when the NWDS is higher than the one of PI. Besides, we are able to deploy BPMN processes with the same NWDS to the same server.
This is the exact exception trace shown in NWDS:

Custom adapter module deployment in PI 7.1

We upgrade XI 3.0 to PI 7.1. However, I dont see SDM directory anymore which is what I had used to deploy my custom adapter module.
Is there a different way to deploy custom adapter module in 7.1? Is SDM discontinued?
When I try to deploy the ear file from NWDS directly I get deployment exception error
"Deployment exception : Cannot determine sdm host (is empty). Please configure your engine/sdm correctly !".
I have given the message server host and port correctly in preferences.
I am using NWDS 7 and JAVA SDK 1.4.2.15.
Is there a new procedure to deploy custom adapters in PI 7.1?

SAP PI crashes because of Custom Adapter module

Hi,
We are facing a strange problem. We have deployed a custom adapter module developed in java which accesses a Hardware Security Module(HSM) and uses the keys in HSM to digitally sign our data. Now, when I use particular methods in this code and deploy it on PI server, the server crashes while testing this out. As soon as I run the channel having this adapter module, PI server becomes unavailable. It restarts on its own after a few minutes.
One of the reasons I identified to be causing this issue is the signing mechanism used in code. When I used a mechanism that was not supported or not correct, it crashed the server. If i corrected it, it worked fine. I found no other thing in my code causing this behaviour apart from this mechanism. But I am still not able to understand how a single method in a code can cause the whole server to crash. Has anybody here faced such a problem? Any pointers would be appreciated.
We are using SAP PI 7.31 java only installation.
Thanks,
Ravi Desai

Hi Ravi
1. To check if it is a memory issue. Once you start the channel, check the memory usage in nwa. Check if the memory is increasing once the channel is started.
2. Add debug statements to print logs in default traces at as many places as possible. Since your code is not reaching the Catch block, using the debug statement you can reach the line in the code which is causing this issue.

Uses of custom adapter module

hi all,
I am doing a POC on exploring custom adapter modules. Can anyone please help me in understanding various possible uses of adapter module?
I already know about creating PDF file, Reading/Writing Excel file, Encode/Decode, setting FileName, Sending attachment through Mail Adapter. Any other possible use of adapter module?
Thanks,
Mayank

hi Jyothi,
Now i am getting following error:
Error jxl.read.biff.BiffException: Unable to recognize OLE stream
My lines of code are:

mayank1.xls");
               System.out.println("001");
               String str = fis.toString();
               System.out.println("0001");
               byte src [] = str.getBytes();

               ByteArrayInputStream f5 = new ByteArrayInputStream(src);
               System.out.println("000001");
               Workbook workbook1 = Workbook.getWorkbook(f5);
               System.out.println("000002");
i am using lines because i will be converting xmlpayload to bytestream in actual module code.
And output i am getting is:
01
001
0001
00001
000001
Error jxl.read.biff.BiffException: Unable to recognize OLE stream
which means there is some problem in line
Workbook workbook1 = Workbook.getWorkbook(f5);
Also when i am reading file using:
Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new FileInputStream("C:

mayank1.xls")); ,, it's working.

Customer adapter module

I'm developing one customer adapter module that calls stored procedure on sender side. I'm not able to stop process when Resultset is empty. As interface is firing every 60s, it is happening quite often and I want to avoid this, like std. JDBC adapter does. How to get this?
kr
mario
p.s: there should be some documentation on PI server regarding development customer modules, and I've found ONLY compiled Java classes not the source code. Any idea?

Mario,
Its Adapter that calls the Module and it is not true other way around so you can't stop adapter through Module.
In your module code you can write a code in such a way that it forms just a header(or anything you wish to) and send it further.
In Receiver determination you can put a condition if certain node doesn't exist (in case of Result Set returns empty) then End the message (with or without error notification).

Code to retrive the sender and receiver interface names using custome adapter module

Hello Team,
I want to develop an custom adapter module which could retrieve the names of the sender and receiver interfaces of the scenario and for that i am trying to use com.sap.aii.af.service.administration.api.monitoring.ProcessContextFactory.ParamSet but i don't know whether this API will support or not and also i don't know how to develop the code using this API so please suggest me some code for it so that i could retrieve the names.
Thanks you all in advance.
Regards,
Avinash.

Hi,
Just ASMA setting will do the needful. Are you planning to rename your target file name. If yes then only you will require UDF.
Update: Since your directory name will be taken from source file name then you have to use mapping for this, else it will not be possible.
I don't know if creating a new module for this will help you solve the issue, but in that case rather creating adapter module, mapping will be easier.

Sarvesh

Get Message details in custom adapter module

Hello,
Could you please let me know how can we retrieve following parameters in custom adapter module?
Message size
Message Mapping name
Operation Mapping name
Sender and Receiver Interface names
Thanks!
Regards,
Shweta

Hi Shweta
Not all the information is available directly from the adapter module.
Message size
Retrieve the input stream of the payload, convert the stream to bytes and count the bytes length.
Message msg = (Message) inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
XMLPayload payload = msg.getDocument();
InputStream inStr = payload.getInputStream();
// Convert inStream to bytes
int size = bytes.length;
Sender and Receiver interface names
You can only get Sender interface in sender module, and receiver interface in receiver module. You can get the from the getAction() method.
Message msg = (Message) inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
String interfaceName = msg.getAction().getName();
Operation Mapping name
This is not directly available from the Adapter Framework. One workaround is to access this via the Integration Directory API. With the Interface Determination Service API, you can read the Interface Determination object to get the associated mapping. To do this you have to make a SOAP call to the API.
Message Mapping name
I'm not sure how this can be retrieved as this is only available in ESR.
If the module is on the receiver side, another option is to extract the information during mapping and store it into Dynamic Configuration, then in the receiver module, to extract it from Dynamic Configuration.

Deploy custom adapter PI 7.1

Hi Experts,
We developed a custom adapter for PI 7.1.
Now we need to deploy it in a PI system that cannot be connected to a NW Developer Studio. Is there another way to do this deploy?
In PI 7.0 we use to deploy through the Visual Administrator. Since VA is not available in PI 7.1, which tool should we use?

You first create the EAR file as per document below (which also has many other information about custom module creation)
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0b39e65-981e-2b10-1c9c-fc3f8e6747fa?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
Then convert it to SDA as per following link
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20a221c6-3943-2e10-5198-dada408de5ac?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
And finally you can deploy using JSPM. Since 7.1 versions don't have SDM, you need to convert the EAR files into SDA in order to be able to deploy it.

Kindly help.
Edited by: Priyanka Sharma on Jun 18, 2010 4:29 PM

com.sap.xi.repository reference is not required,, how are you deploying your module on PI server,
You must be using some external library for excel conversion, if external library is present in your deployed file, you don't need to add com.sap.xi.repository reference.
Check:
Is EAR to SDA conversion needed for EJB EAR module
if you opt to use CECLT tool provided with NWDS 7.1, make sure you import SAP EAR File(it will have External library) on your local system.

Required JAR's for developing custom adapter modules for PI 7.31 SP 09

Hello experts,
I have a new development wherein i have to consume .xlsx files in PI 7.31
i have gone through a lot of blogs but did not find any relevant JAR's specially for PI 7.31, I am planning to go for custom module development for conversion of .xlsx file into xml
so need your help for finding the JAR's for PI 7.31 and also some custom JAVA source code for conversion of excel spreadsheet into XML.
Regards,
Sushant.Shinde

Hi sushant,
The module key seems correct ffor you. But the blog you shared is cozy. I developed 4 adapter modules using a document. Please refer that.
And NWDS EHP1 is available you can use that to be perfectly sure on compatibility.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0b39e65-981e-2b10-1c9c-fc3f8e6747fa?overridelayout=true
use the above document to verify the steps you followed-
Please provide following screenshots
NWA->configuration->infrastructure->Application Modules-> and search for *xlmodule*
if you find your module then click on it and at the bottom there will be a window with JNDI Name. Share that JNDI name and use that JNDI name in your Module. (localejbs/JNDIName).
Also go to NWA->TroubleShooting-> JNDI Browser and see where is your Adapter module situated. I mean under which directory. Either directly inside root/localejbs/ or root/localejbs/sap.com.
Please verify your steps according to that and redeploy and share result.
and Go to NWA- Site Map-> find Start & Stop
In that go to Java Applicaitons Tab and search for your module. It must be started. If it is stopped try starting it.
Regards,
Vikas

Custom adapter module throwing exception

Hi,
We have written an adapter module (EJB) to convert a file structure into XML for conversion in XI. Using file adapter(FTP), we are getting the files converted into XML without any problem. However, when there is no file in the directory the module is throwing an exception and writing an entry into the log (polling interval is 1 minute).
The requirement is when there is no file in the directory, the adapter should keep on polling, but without generating any exception or making an entry in the log.
Can anyone help out with this please?

strange...
if a file is not found in the specified directory where your file adapter is polling, it is not possible that the control comes to the adapter module you have specified in the module chain.
have you done something unusual in your CC config i.e. added only your module in the module chain and removed CallSAPAdapter

How to Convert EAR to SDA & Deploy it to PI 7.1 for Custom Adapter Module

Hi all,
I need to convert an EAR file created using NWDS 7.1 to SDA file and deploy it to PI 7.1
How can i do so.
Please help if possible! Thanks!
Mayank

hi Mayank,
I quote from help.sap
"●      Use the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio and the SDM in the following cases:
○       If the source files of the application are available, you can import them into the relevant project types in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio and then build the archive files. This scenario enables you to change the code of the application if necessary, as well as to build an application archive, which can be deployed using the SDM.
This graphic is explained in the accompanying text
You can convert the application using the Converter Tool to see what information you should include in the additional deployment descriptors. Then you can edit the generated descriptors in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.
○       If your applicationu2019s EAR file contains the descriptors required to deploy it with the SDM (sda-dd.xml), you can use the SDM to deploy it on the J2EE Engine 7.0. The EAR is automatically converted at deployment time.
This graphic is explained in the accompanying text
When the application is converted using the SDM, the newly generated descriptors are used during deployment only and are not stored in the file system. You cannot reuse the converted application later. Therefore, we recommend that you convert the application using the Converter Tool first, and then deploy it using the SDM.
●      Using the Deploy Tool is more convenient in the following cases:
○       If only the EAR of the application is available and it does not contain the sda-dd.xml, use the Deploy Tool to convert and deploy the application on the J2EE Engine. Note that once the application EAR has been converted, it is no longer compatible with 6.20.

Addition of a header line to a flat file using Custom Adapter Module?

Is the header that you want to add to the input file always a constant?
In that case why go for a module. Directly map the required constants during the mapping to your IDoc.
My suggestion is to avoid the module

Hi Shabrish,
The Header is not a constant field always as the value changes per file adapter so a module will be helpful, and it will be a must to add the Header record as the first line.
Can you suggest/direct me to some appropriate blogs? Thanks
Regards,
Nipun
