XI 2.0 WorkBench File Adapter Self-Test Error

I have installed the file adapter on our XI serve and when I perform the Self-Test I get the following error HTTP request failed. Error code: "401". Error message: "Authorization Required". I have the user XIRWBUSER defined to the Adapter Engine. What else am I missing?

Is Sender File Adapter always throws error when there is no file?

Hi,
I have a simple question but can't find a straight answer to it. I have a Sender File adapter that configured to pick up file XXX* from FTP server every 1 hour. But a file can come every 2, 3, or 7 hours- no certain time.When there is no file I got "File not found " error. As we use alerts, this behaviour is not acceptable.
Does this error comes always if there is no file? Any possible way to avoid this error ?
Thanks for help.

Hi Ravi,
I can see the error in Runtime Workbench under CC monitoring. To be precise it says:
An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '1X.1XX.XX.XX:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 552 RMS-E-FNF, file not found, ES4_SAP*'. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
My ftp server has the following set up:
Server: xx.xxx.xx.xx
Port:21
Dataconnection:Active
Timeout:120
Connection secuirity: None
User name .... etc set up.
Connect mode: Per file transfer
Transfer mode:Text
QoS:EO
Pollinterval: 120 (for test purposes)
Processing Mode: delete
Can it be that its a ftp server generates error and sends back to XI?
Thanks,
Nataliya

File Adapter Read, Translation error

Hi,
I got problem with BPEL File Adapter. When i'm reading file i got scheme - termineted with semicol and without quoting.
In uploaded test file there was line - first colums;second colums;""third"" column";forth column;
And the problem are five quotes and adapter fails with translation error. Can i somehow ignore them?

Hi,
You have use the attribute quotedBy... By default, the specified string is &quot; ("). If your data includes this character, you must override this default even if the field is not quoted.
For example:
{code}
<element name="field" type="string" nxsd:style="terminated" nxsd:terminatedBy=";" nxsd:quotedBy="<"/>
{code}

Self Test Error -50002, The specified device is not a valid device.

I'm just an IT guy that knows nothing about Labview or DAQ cards that has been given the task of setting up a lab.
System is Dell GX280 with Windows XP SP-2. The DAQ card being used is a NI PCI-6251. The software used is Labview 7.11 and NI-DAQ 7.4.
Labview loads the professor's VI files as expected but when you start the vi it returns the following error.
Error -200157 occurred at the Traditional NI-DAQ Compatibility VI:AI Group Config.vi-> DAQmx Create Channel(AT-Voltage-Basic).vi
Also when you enter the Measurement and Automation application and browse to the device and execute a self-test it returns the following error.
Error -50002 occurred at Self Test
Possible Reason(s):
The specified device is not a valid device. The Operation could be completed as specified.
My question is are these errors because there are no devices connected to the DAQ? The professor claims that if nothing is connected it should still function properly. So now I'm trying to figure out what is wrong and the professor is not the friendliest in the world. I have tried reinstalling Labview and NI-Daq several times now and no luck using two separate computers. I would appreciate any assistance.

Hi Rice IT,
Since you are new to using this whole DAQ thing, then I'll start with just the basics.
Make sure you have no NI Devices in your computer (if you do, remove them then begin).
Install LabVIEW.
Install the latest DAQ drivers for your system (for you it's NI-DAQmx Version 7.5 for Windows 2000/NT/XP).
Power down the computer and insert your DAQ board.
When Windows boots you should see the New Device Wizard. Have it search for and install the drivers.
Open Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) to test the device (Start > All Programs > National Instruments)
Go to My System > Devices and Interfaces > NI-DAQmx Devices, you should see your DAQ device.
Right-click on your device and click Self-Test. If the device passes it should be ready to use
If that causes an error right-click on the device and Reset Device.
Redo Step 8 and perform a Self-Test of the device
If the Self-Test still does not work, then the board could be
broken. Try to place the board in a different PCI slot, if other
boards are available then try to use a known working board in your
system. If you still have trouble contact Technical Support.
Now your device should be working. You can try to run a Test Panel and look at how your device performs.
You could also right click on Data Neighborhood in MAX and
Create New... DAQmx Task and try to make a more customized measurement.
Finally you can open an example in LabVIEW
Open LabVIEW > Open > Examples (or Help > Find
Examples) > Browse > Hardware Input and Output > DAQmx.
Choose an example that is similar to what type of operation you are
trying to perform.
Typically you will want to start with an example and then
build up from there. If not, then you will want to take a look at
this KB
If you run into any problems, first read thru what the error message is
and where it occurs. If that can't help you isolate the error,
then try searching ni.com for more information. If you can't find
anything there, then check the forums to see if somebody else has had a
similar fate. Finally if you cannot find any more information
contact NI's Technical Support.
Here are a few more resources that might help you with some of the basics:
Introduction to Data Acquisition
Learn 10 Functions in NI-DAQmx and Solve 80% of
Data Acquisition Applications
NI DAQmx FAQ
I hope you are able to get a better bearing of where you need to go from this information.

File adapter archive on error?

Hello,
I have a flat file scenario: flat -> XI -> flat.
I have configured the sender channel for archiving messages after processing and it work fine.
But what i want to do is :
if the message is processed succesfully i want to archive the send file in the directory "c:/sucess" and if the message is processed on error (for example due to a mapping error) i want to archive the send file in the directory "c:/error". For the moment i don't see if it's possible, all the file successfull and on error are archived in the same directory.... Is it possible to use 2 directories for archiving ? One for success, second for error ?
Thanks in advance.

for Archive mode, please check these things in Sender Communication Channel :
1. Processing Mode is Archive
2. Archive Directory path is correct.
3. In Advance Tab : Set Adapter-Sepcific Message Attribute is Checked.
Filename, direcotry, filetype are also Checked.
You have one option on Processing Tab : Archive Faulty Source File, Please use the same.

File Adapter giving Translation error while reading & moving pdf files

Hello Gurus,
I am on SOA 10.1.3.4 and using BPEL for the below procedure.
The requirement I have is to move pdf files from one local directory to another as soon as the pdf files land in source directory. So I used a file adapter (FileAdapter_1) to poll the file and read as an opaque schema. Then I copied the name and directory in a header variable and passed the header variable to another file adapter(FileAdapter_2) which moves the file from source to target directory. The jca operation for FileAdapter_2 is as follows:
<jca:operation
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.FileIoInteractionSpec"
SourcePhysicalDirectory="foo1"
SourceFileName="bar1"
TargetPhysicalDirectory="foo2"
TargetFileName="bar2"
Type="MOVE">
</jca:operation>
It is working fine for all 90% of pdf files, but some files are failing with the following error in domain.log file.

Hi,
You have use the attribute quotedBy... By default, the specified string is &quot; ("). If your data includes this character, you must override this default even if the field is not quoted.
For example:
{code}
<element name="field" type="string" nxsd:style="terminated" nxsd:terminatedBy=";" nxsd:quotedBy="<"/>
{code}

ALERT MAIL FOR FILE ADAPTER COMMUNICATION CHANNEL ERRORS

Hi,
I need to send an alert by mail to a list of configured receivers if any error( Application as wel as System Errors ) occurs in the FILE ADAPTER Communication Channel .
Please suggest how to do it......
Regards,
Sriparna

Can anything be configured in the communication channel to run a mail unix script if the communication channel is throwing
error.Other than alert rule can we configure this.
Why do you intend to use script? Define Alert....create Rule....set parameters using SCOT.....you will get the alert as email (if you need it)
Can you please help with how do I create this rule specific to File Adapters only ?
Other than selecting FILE as Adapter Type in RWB --> Alert Rule definition we dont do anything special....this setting should help.
Regards,
Abhishek.

File adapter module enhancement error

Hello All,
We have a EDI scenario where data for 110 is to be transfered to SAP. Here customer is not able to ahead with seeburger hence decided to develope a adapter module. We have done that and started testing . While testing we are getting a error, in which ":" is field separator which is getting converted to "[]" . This we found when we debugged module process method. Pl can you suggest why this conversion is happening and how to resolve.
If you see , When I use only standared sap module file is getting read as it is. There is no such conversion happening.
Pl can you suggest at the earliest possible.
thanks,
Sharada

Hi,
I think you have done a typo error. is it not
localejbs/SeeClassifier classifier*
To find the correct JNDI lookup name, log in to Visual Administrator of the J2EE Engine and in server node look for the JNDI Registry Service.Spot your desired bean and fetch the whole JNDI name form there.

Sender File Adapter - FTP Connection Error 530

Need help!!!
I am getting the following error in XI when I try to connect to an ftp server.
"An error occured while connecting to server xxx.xx.x.xx:xx. The FTP server returned the following error message:'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.FTPEx: 530 Can't open passive connection---(4013)'. For details, contact FTP server vendor"
When I try the FTP connection on the OS level I am able to log in, but through XI I am unable to.
Has anyone seen this error before?

I have seen Error Code 530 earlier, it is typically related to login related issues.
Check if the user mentioned in the Comm Channel has the correct password and read as well as write rights on the Server.
The most likely problem is with the User Credentials or Authorizations

File Conversion in Rec File Adapter with subnodes

Hi
My XML Structure is like this -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_Test xmlns:ns0="urn:TESTconversion">
<MstName>Hello</MstName>
- <Header>
<TableName>1tst</TableName>
<PayDate>0102</PayDate>
<TotalAmt>24.00</TotalAmt>
<Total>000002</Total>
<PaySource>CHK</PaySource>
- <Subheader>
<TableName>1tst</TableName>
<SelectCatgry>test</SelectCatgry>
<CustID>200</CustID>
<PayAmount>11.00</PayAmount>
</Subheader>
- <Subheader>
<TableName>1tst</TableName>
<SelectCatgry>test</SelectCatgry>
<CustID>400</CustID>
<PayAmount>13.00</PayAmount>
</Subheader>
</Header>
- <Header>
<TableName>1tst</TableName>
<PayDate>0103</PayDate>
<TotalAmt>10.00</TotalAmt>
<Total>000001</Total>
<PaySource>ONE</PaySource>
- <Subheader>
<TableName>1tst</TableName>
<SelectCatgry>test</SelectCatgry>
<CustID>100</CustID>
<PayAmount>10.00</PayAmount>
</Subheader>
</Header>
</ns0:MT_Test>
which means
MT_Test is root 1..1
Header is the sub-node of MT_test as 1...*
Subheader is sub-node of Header which is also 1...*
rest of the fields are elements as 1..1
Now I need to convert this into Flat file using Receiver File Adapter, I gave this in my content conversion logic
recordset Structure -
MstHeader,BFKKZK,BFKKZP
MstName.addHeaderLine     0
MstName.fieldFixedLengths     8
MstName.endSeparator     'nl'
Header.addHeaderLine     0
Header.fieldFixedLengths     30,10,15,6,6
Header.endSeparator     'nl'
Subheader.addHeaderLine     0
Subheader.fieldFixedLengths     34,10,35,16
Subheader.endSeparator     'nl'
But with this I am getting exception as -->
Could not process due to error: java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure 'ns0:MT_Test' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
I know that http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/44/686e687f2a6d12e10000000a1553f6/content.htm says following -->
The expected XML structure contains the structure as nodes filled with any number of elements without additional subnodes.
But does that mean Structure with sub-nodes cannot be converted in flat format.
Pls. suggest the solution for this.
- lalit -

Shab
I resolved the issue & able to convert the hierarchical XML file into flat file with the desired format I wanted.
Rather then FCC, I use MessageTransformBean module and I have to insert more dummy contexts & dummy fields in the target structure in order to achieve the flat file format.
I am getting file ( not actual file below just template is shown below) like this now
Header1 ....details....
SubHeader1.1
SubHeader1.2
SubHeader1.x
Header2 ....details....
SubHeader2.1
SubHeader2.2
SubHeader2.x
Headerx ....details....
SubHeaderx.1
SubHeaderx.2
SubHeaderx.x
Once the total development is over on my side I will create the blog for this. So this following statement is only correct when you use protocol as FCC but not with module.
"The expected XML structure contains the structure as nodes filled with any number of elements without additional subnodes."

How to ignore a recordset in receiver file adapter

Hi, all.
I am trying to get PI to write a fixed length file via the reciever file adapter. Here is a test data structure I put together:
In the output file, I want the file adapter to ignore the recordset PAYPERIOD and field PERIOD. Only fields in DATA will be written to the file. Here is what I configure in the CC:
The problem is that the CC will not work unless I put in the recordset PAYPERIOD which starts printing the data in the PERIOD field. The data in PERIOD is only used to generate the output file name as a perameter.
Here is the error:
Attempt to process file failed with java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'java.lang.Exception: Column value 'Y1406' too long (>4 for 0. column) - must stop', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
Please help. Note that Y1406 is the data in the field PERIOD. The PI file adapter is a rather primitive tool to use.
Thanks,
Jonathan.

Hi Jonathan,
can you try using the paramter ignoreRecordsetName = TRUE. refer the below sap help
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
ignoreRecordsetName
A
<Recordset> element is inserted in the XML structure for each recordset
structure. This level is not always required, particularly if the recordset only
contains one structure definition.
If you set the
parameter to true, the <Recordset> element is not
inserted.

Harish

File Adapter Receiver

Hi All,
File to File (CSV)
At the receiver side i am not getting the file it is showing problem in runtime workbench: File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.
Thanks,
Satish.

<i>File Adapter Receiver Channel is not initilaized Unable to proceed : null.</i>
>>>
1. check if your adapter is active
2. in case you have FCC just remove the same for the time being and check if it can pass the XML version (without FCC). this will confirm if it was a problem with your FCC parameters.
Let us know the proceedings !!!!!

Real time : File Adapter : query

Hi Folks,
At development time( file adapter) we test our scenario by creating a sample XML file using message mapping tool .
The type of message we get from this contains Message Type tag with namespace Attribute.
<ns0:MT_XYZ xmlns:ns0="urn:xyz">
My question is in do in real time we need to tell them that create message type with the anmespace attribute we are using ? and also how to suppress namespace and will it bring any complications in the process ?
Regards,

Santosh,
1.     When using the File adapter and Content Conversion to read the file into XI, you can allocate a specific message namespace
2.     If the namespace does becomes an issue for your scenario then use an additional mapping step to remove the namespace. For example we have the
Mesage Type MT_NAMES which has a a type of NAMES
Subelement NAMEREC (0 .. unbounded)
Subelements NAME1 and NAME2
Sample xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ns1:MT_NAMES xmlns:ns1="http://namespace">
<NAMEREC>
<NAME1>AAA</NAME1>
<NAME2>BBB</NAME2>
</NAMEREC>
<NAMEREC>
<NAME1>CCC</NAME1>
<NAME2>DDD</NAME2>
</NAMEREC>
</ ns1:MT_NAMES>
Apply the XSL map

XI file adapter polling faster than poll interval

Hi,
We are facing a issue with the file adapter/authorization of the FTPUSER.
We FTP a server and pick up a file from a particular folder.
My polling interval is 2 minutes
My retry interval is space.
Processing mode : ARCHIVE
We are archiving it on a Network attached server(NAS) mounted on our XI server.
When XI polls for the first time it picks up the file but the sender file adapter shows following error in RWB.
<b>2006-01-20 11:31:08 GMT: Error: Deleting of file 'ARUCSjnewb80.txt' failed - cannot proceed: FTPEx: ARUCSjnewb80.txt: Access is denied.</b>
The picked up file gets processed but at the same time just within 12-13 seconds of the first poll XI picks up the file second time and then in another 3 seconds for the third time.
After this the file gets archived thrice in the archive directory and then gets deleted from the source directory.
We are unable to understand why XI is polling again after few seconds of the first poll.(As per my understanding it should have polled after 2 minutes).
I am able to delete the file manually from the Ftp server.
Could anyone give a pointer towards what we are missing or what probable reasons could be?
authorization issue?( XIADM /ftpuser have full authorization)
Some adapter setting?
Regards,
Sulakshana

Hi,
Could you let me know how frequent the file gets loaded to the FTP server.
Is your file size too large to get loaded.. If so try to increase the polling interval. Also make sure that you have provided the polling time in sec and not in minutes...i.e for 2 minutes it should have been specified as 120 sec as polling interval

Nithiyanandam
