Urgent: File transfer to sever

Dear Guru,
I have some question.  I am writing a program to upload excel file from PC to SAP.  I use abap function to get excel file from PC and store data in an internal table.  I am then use function file transfer (open dataset and close dataset) to transfer that internal table to server as a text file.  However, everything is going smoothly from a begining until the end.  The message is displayed to me as file xxx has been transfered to sever xx.  Unfortunately, when I access to sever, I cannot find that text file.  Anything wrong with my coding?  Please help me!!  I will reward you.  thank you very much.
Best Regard
This is my code.
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT MESSAGE MSG_TEXT.
  IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
      WRITE: 'FILE CANNOT BE OPENED FOR REASON:', MSG_TEXT.
  ELSE.
      LOOP AT ITAB.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL1 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL2 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL3 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL4 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL5 TO FILENAME.

              TRANSFER ITAB-COL12 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL13 TO FILENAME.
              TRANSFER ITAB-COL14 TO FILENAME.
      ENDLOOP.
      MESSAGE I000(38) WITH FILENAME ':TRANSFERRED SUCCESSFULLY'.
      CLOSE DATASET FILENAME.
  ENDIF.

Hi ,
  Coule you check whether data is there in your internal table or not , because i created a sample program and it worked file.
Also check whether you have access to modify the file ,i.e. check if the file is read only , try writing to a new file .
Do revert back with the observations.
Regards
Arun
<u>Code which i used for testing is as below</u>
data : filename(20) value '/usr/arun.txt'.
data : begin of it_1 occurs 0 ,
         matnr type matnr ,
         labst type labst ,
       end of it_1.
select matnr labst
into table it_1
up to 10 rows
from mard.
data : begin of it_2 occurs 0 ,
        matnr type string ,
        labst type string ,
       end of it_2.
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE .
loop at it_1.
it_2-matnr =  it_1-matnr.
it_2-labst = it_1-labst.
  TRANSFER IT_2-matnr TO FILENAME.
  TRANSFER IT_2-labst TO FILENAME.
endloop.

  • Simple file to file transfer.  Pls advice urgent

    Hi All,
    I have Simple file to file transfer.
    There are text files at source side that need to send at receiver side.
    Source text files name are different so I have used
    Adapter Specific Attributes for Sender and Receiver Adapetrs
    Question
    As these are text files and there is no mapping required what interface name should I give at Sender Aggrement and
    at Interface Determination.
    Pls describe steps
    Regards

    Rider,
    Its very simple scenario. For ur satisfaction I did the same, it's working perfectly. I don't know what mistake u did. Let me give the complete picture.
    Step1: Create new Scenario
    Step2: Create new Business Service, let say File_BusService
    Step3: In File_BusService add the outbound and Inbound Interface name and namespaces , like
    Outbound Interface: MyInterface
    Outbound Interfacenamespace: http://my-own-namespace.com
    Inbound Interface: MyInterface
    Inbound Interfacenamespace: http://my-own-namespace.com
    Step4: Create two communication Channels under File_BusService
    Step5: Receiver Determination.
    Sender:File_BusService
    Outbound Interface: MyInterface
    Outbound Interfacenamespace: http://my-own-namespace.com
    Configured Receivers
    File_BusService
    Step6: Interface Determination.
    Sender:File_BusService
    Outbound Interface: MyInterface
    Outbound Interfacenamespace: http://my-own-namespace.com
    Inbound Interface: MyInterface
    Step7: Receiver agreement
    Receiver Service: File_BusService
    Inbound Interface: MyInterface
    Receiver Comm.channel
    Step8: Sender Agreement.
    Sender:File_BusService
    Outbound Interface: MyInterface
    Outbound Interfacenamespace: http://my-own-namespace.com
    Sender Comm.channel.

  • Error no. 4 in SAPGUI with Graphics call or file  transfer

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement that is " I need to display the selected data from database table in bar chart".
    I am using the Function Module " GRAPH_MATRIX_3D ".
    I am getting the following error message.
    " Error no. 4 in SAPGUI with Graphics call or file  transfer "
    Please can any one help me on this,
    It is very urgent I need to deliver this to client very soon.
    Please.....
    Thanks
    Basu

    Hi,
    have a look at the pdf that comes with the download package. It describes how to structure your data (depending on the chart type).
    Use the Chart Designer to create your customizing settings (chart type, colors etc) and save them as a customizing XML file.
    Finally have a look at report GRAPHICS_IGS* that shows how to use the XML in your own report and send them to the IGS (by using the class CL_IGS_CHART_ENGINE).

  • Multi-IM client with file transfer

    I've been trying to find the ultimate multi-IM client which supports file transfers on all protocols... Quite ambitious, I know. I haven't found one, so I'll share my experience and ask for other suggestions. I'm mainly interested in Yahoo! Messenger, GTalk and Facebook Chat.
    - Messages/iChat : great, except that the Facebook Chat account doesn't support file transfers. I only get a text: <contact name> sent you an image/file if I receive and an error if I try to send.
    - Adium - no file transfers whatsoever. I know they have included this in "Known Issues", that it's actually a matter of luck whether file transfer works or not...
    - Trillian - no file transfers on Facebook Chat.
    - Nimbuzz - no file transfers on Facebook Chat.
    - Psi - no file transfers on Facebook Chat.
    I have yet to try the newly launched Flamingo, but I really wouldn't like to spend $10 for it...
    Is there any way I could make Messages support file transfers on Facebook Chat? It would be my first choice, as it's deeply integrated into OS X and its iMessages support. I asked this on the Facebook Community, but still no answer. I have set up the Facebook Chat account as they say on the Facebook website.
    Does it have anything to do with Mavericks?

    Hi,
    The Login should be the 5222 item out of those.
    If you open the App in the Applications folder you will see listings for Messages and also IMAgent.
    And
    I do have several AIM valid IDs logging in.
    Several are now using port 443 as is the Google Login I have running.
    The two UDP ports ar much more likely to be the File Transfer ones.
    The "report" page of Little Snitch may give details in the right hand column  about the IP address of the server used and this may also list a name of the sever that can be helpful.
    The port 80 listed is probably to verify your ID against the regular Facebook server.
    That said the two UDP ports are nothing like any I have seen Messages use.

  • File transfer errors between WP8.1 and W8.1

    This is probably in the wrong forum. But I cannot find anything which this falls under.
    Also please forgive my lack of competence in filing an issue like this.
    I own a Lumia 1020 and was trying to move photos off my phone to laptop. More specifically was trying to move the DNGs. I had already moved the jpegs. When it came to cutting or copying the DNGs I keep getting an unknown error saying that the operation would
    not work. (sorry I don't have a screenshot of the prompt)
    Now, I decided to restart my phone and lo and behold that batch of DNGs are now lost. Which I must say is quite a bad thing given that those photos were rather important.
    Since that cannot be undone, I decided to move the other DNGs which to my surprise actually did start the transfer process without any hiccup. But, when my phone went to sleep it seemed to sever the connection between my laptop and phone thus killing the
    file transfer process and generally 'unplugging' itself from my laptop until I unlocked it again.
    Again I'm not sure how to submit this or under what category it falls. But this is an issue which shouldn't be happening with the finalised version of WP8.1

  • "Windows - No Disk" error message on file transfer

    Hello!
    I updated our ZDM7 server from plain old ZDM7 with no updates to ZDM7 SP1

    comes this error message:

  • UCMA 4 and back to backing a file transfer request

    OK, I know that file transfer isn't technically supported on UCMA 4.0, but I wanted to take another look at it and see whether there was a way to b2b a file transfer request. After all, there's no reason that it shouldn't work if the messaging is correct,
    right? The scenario I have is A <-b2b-> app <-b2b->B.  I have an IM conversation going on between A and B, so now I'm trying to set it up so that A can send a file to B. 
    So far I've extended the platform to accept file transfer requests by creating my own call and factory classes, and then registering them using RegisterPlatformExtension.  This means that when A sends a file, the INVITE gets delivered to my application. 
    Now I'm taking that INVITE and creating a new b2b call.  A file transfer request looks something like this:
    TL_INFO(TF_PROTOCOL) [0]16A8.4B28::02/10/2015-19:53:05.007.001d492f (SIPStack,SIPAdminLog::ProtocolRecord::Flush:ProtocolRecord.cpp(265))[3939761282] $$begin_record

    I've got my b2bed invite looking almost identical to the original invite by creating a custom MIME type on the CallEstablishOptions for the back to back call using something like this:
    Regex r = new Regex(@"^((.|\n)*)(\<request)((.|\n)*)(request\>)((.|\n)*)$");
    Match m=r.Match(args.RequestData.GetMessageBodyString());
    content=string.Format("Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable\r\n{0}{1}{2}",m.Groups[3],m.Groups[4],m.Groups[6]);
    opt.CustomMimeParts.Add(new MimePartContentDescription(new ContentType("application/ms-filetransfer+xml"),System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.UTF8.GetBytes(content)));
    opt.CustomMimeParts[0].ContentDispositionHeader = new SignalingHeader("Content-Disposition", "render; handling=optional");
    So far the only differences I can see in my outbound message vs the original SDP are that the Content-Transfer-Encoding might not be seen as a header (since the SignalingHeaders property on the MimePartContentDescription is read only), and the Content-Transfer-Encoding
    on the first MIME part (created by the BackToBackCall) is missing (even though I specified it on the PassThroughHeaders).  Even with all of this though, I still get a 488 on client B when I attempt the transfer (even though the invite goes through). 
    What I'm wondering though, is whether there's any way at all to get this working the way I'd expect, where a file gets transferred directly between A and B, without my bot having to receive it first.  The other approach I've looked at is binding my
    own media provider class to customize the SDP, but if this MIME part approach isn't going to work, then I have a feeling the media provider won't work either. 
    Any suggestions on where to look next? 
    Thanks!
    Chris

    Chris,
    I am trying to do something similar to this and from what I have read and in talking to MS is that you need to extend the Call and Flow class which it looks like you have been able to do. Could I bother you to share what you have written? Maybe we can help
    each other out on this. I am basically trying to create an application that will be able to capture a file transfer and save it, then send the original request on to the intended recipient.
    Thanks in advance,
    Anthony

I have tried migrating via ethernet and FireWire from my iMac, but the migrations failed either due to freezing (via FireWire after roughly 24 hours of file transfer) or by an error message (ethernet with Migration Assistant).
    Only through a Time Machine backup was I able to transfer my account files to the MBP, which again totaled at over 20 hours of transferring. The system was a mess, clogged constantly by freezing and spinning beach balls of death for durations lasting around 10-20 seconds during which music would clip after 5-10 seconds of everything not responding, this being accentuated especially during installations. I decided to format and try anew.
    Now I've formatted the hard drive, installed Snow Leopard and will transfer my files manually onto a clean account. Installations take a long time although SL installation is within 30 minutes, iLife took 1.5 hours to install 5 GB. During the installation Safari stopped responding, as did the entire system, and the spinning beach ball would keep spinning. Watching a 480p trailer in Quicktime made the entire computer freeze up (no video/audio) for 10 seconds halfway. Transferring 136 GB (my Music folder) will take around 15 hours according to the estimate after 10 minutes of transferring.
    I've sold my iMac now and all I have are the files on my external hard drive. I want to get them onto my MBP ASAP but the slowness is preventing me from doing what needs to be done and it's very frustrating. When I try to boot into Hardware Testing by holding D down the computer doesn't do it no matter what (Application DVD in or not, plugged into power or not). I've tried resetting PRAM but I get the same inaction.
    Any ideas?
    Edit: I've done Disk Utility to no avail, it finds nothing wrong.

    Installed, still getting freezes with spinning beach balls. Transfer says it would take 1 hour opposed to that 15 hours, but it stops transferring after X amount of gigabytes (from 0.5 to 5), not do anything for a while and then continue, stretching the estimate to over 2 hours after some time. I don't know if this is just with the hard drive.
    The freeze-ups are frustrating as **** and make for a very poor experience. Any ideas to get to the bottom of this? I still haven't been able to boot into the Hardware Test no matter how much I try.

  • File transfer: AFP vs FTP

    Setup:
    Cable modem to Linksys WRT54g broadcasting only in G only mode for PBG4.
    AEBSn#1 in bridge mode via Ethernet from Linksys, N only mode, broadcasting wirelessly.
    AEBSn#2 is wirelessly extending N-only from AEBSn#1, and is connected to a mini with external hard drive.
    Using PBG4, if I mount a volume from the mini and transfer a file, transfer time is very slow: approx. 20 minutes for a 200MB file. If I FTP from PBG4 into the mini, transfer time is 2 minutes.
    (I think the same happens if I use a Macbook Pro connected to the N-only network, but it's in for repairs right now, so I can't be sure.)
    Any idea why the transfer times are so different b/w AFP and FTP and, more importantly, what I can do to remedy this? Thanks.

    Same problem here. I have two AEBS Gigabit in bridge mode. Transfering a file via FTP or with Apple Remote Access (ARD) brings up to 3 MB/sec. Same file and same configuration connected via AFP only brings 60 kB/sec.
    I hope somebody has an idea how to fix this.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to achieve the maximum file transfer rate from PXI to local host?

    I will have to copy a huge amount of data (as big as 50 GB) from a PXI-8106 unit on site to a laptop. Currently it would take several hours. It is critical to max out the data transfer rate.
    The standard method we've been using is just drag and drop using Windows Explorer via FTP. I tried to use FTP VIs with Filezilla Server as well but the transfer rate is only like 1.5 MB/s. Is this normal? Once I saw it was 3.0 MB/s but for some reason, that isn't happening now.
    For another option, I tried to transfer data to a USB flash drive but it's even slower. As far as I know, USB 2.0 transfer rate is supposed to be around 60 MB/s but why would it be slower than 1.5 MB/s? What could be the speed limiting factor in my file transfer setup?
    Any tips on improving file transfer rate would be appreciated!

    Sustained 40 MB/s? That is my dream speed! The maximum speed I've ever seen here was about 25 MB/s, which is still very good, and that happened only after copying back and forth, which I explained above. Let me go through what I did with screencaps first.
    These are the test tdms files to transfer in the PXI: an original file witten in the PXI and its copy file. I copied the original file from PXI to laptop and renamed it (added '_copy') and then copied it back to PXI.
    FTP module is transferring the original file to the Filezilla server on laptop. Note the low speed.
    FTP module is transferring the copy file to the Filezilla server on laptop. Note the higher speed.
    This is the FTP sub VI I'm using. It transfers files in sub-folders (one level lower), too. The data connection is set to 'passive' on the FTP Put Multiple Files VI but it doesn't seem to make any difference. I attach the sub VI.
    You tried the file transfer with a 500 MB text file. Would there be any difference if the file type was tdms? Would the RAM size matter? It is 2GB here.
    And the LED is orange, which means Gigabit.
    Another question: Is there any way to programmatically stop file transfer in progress? Currently, I just have to restart the PXI.
    Thank you!

  • How do you install CS5 onto a new computer without Time Machine/file transfer

    I'm not getting a new computer, but my current one is getting a little old (Macbook Pro V. 10.6.8) and I'm afraid it might crash if I download the newest Maverick system, which is why I want to make absolutely sure I'm able to save and transfer all my old files and CS5 Creative Suite programs if this indeed happens. I don't trust Time Machine to do it; my boss had this happen and Time Machine did not transfer the Adobe programs. I also don't want to rely on Time Machine and any other file transfer (which all new Macs offer) because I've had brand new computers crash because of old corrupt files from my old computer converting over, and the Apple people said it's a bad idea (which would have been nice to know BEFORE the computer crashed and everything. . .) I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice, which I've already done (thanks to my brand new computer crashing once already). So I would like to know how it's possible to install the program onto a new computer should this one crash, without the use of file transfer or Time Machine. I have no interest in upgrading to CC.
    Thanks!

    Avoid using Time Machine for re-installing Adobe software. It rarely works and usually breaks the activation mechanism.
    I've been told you can only use the CD to install CS5 onto your computer twice,
    Not quite.
    You can install the software as many times as you like but you can only activate the software for use on a maximum of two computers at the same time.
    To re-install you will need your CS5 serial number.
    Download the installer from Download CS5 products
    Install then enter your serial number when prompted.

  • When upgrading to OSX Yosemite do all my programs and files transfer over such as Office for mac, saved documents from word,excel,pics,pdf files,etc.etc...

    Will all my files transfer over (or stay) automatically right after upgrading to Yosemite or do I have to backup every single desired program or document? Question is do I HAVE to please if you can answer if its mandatory or not. Not looking for recommendations that I SHOULD back up or anything like that just want to know if it is mandatory to perform a backup to be able to keep or transfer all my current programs and apps and documents currently on my MB Pro Retina.

    Yes, upgrading to Yosemite will not touch your 3rd party apps or files in the Home folder.
    Although not mandatory you should have a a backup of your hard drive regardless if you upgrade to Yosemite or not.  To not have a backup is just playing  Russian roulette as there are only two types of hard drives;  those that have failed and those that will.
