FTP receiver adapter does not transfer (STORE) file

[Former Member]

Hello gurus,

In my scenario I want to transfer files from server X to server Y using FTP.

To get the files from server-X I use the FTP sender adapter, to put the files on server-Y I user the FTP receiver adapter.

Getting the file (QoS = EOIO) is not a problem; I see the result is SXM_MONI.

Putting the file doesn't seem to work; I don't have an error message in SXMB_MONI but the file is not physical stored on server-Y.

When I monitor server-Y I see that XI connects with the configured user/pwd and even creates the directory when it doesn't exist but the file is not STORED.

I'm not using the BPE, this is a very simple and basic scenario: what comes in, goes out.

Can you please advice what might be the cause of the strange behavior?

Many thanks - Danny

hi Danny,

check adapter monitor:

http://xiserver:port/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp

to see what happens with your message after it leaves the intergration engine

(sxmb_moni)

also check communication channel monitor

michal

Hello Michal, thanks for your (very) quick reply.

this is the result:

1) adapter monitoring

<b>Status to be delivered:</b>

- Message successfully received by messaging system. Profile: XI URL: http://xdsci.cie.etat.lu:53100/MessagingSystem/receive/AFW/XI Credential (User): XIISUSER

- Using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System. Trying to put the message into the receive queue.

- Message successfully put into the queue.

2) sxmb_moni

- no error

3) communication channel monitor

- Message successfully received by messaging system. Profile: XI URL: http://xdsci.cie.etat.lu:53100/MessagingSystem/receive/AFW/XI Credential (User): XIISUSER

- Using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System. Trying to put the message into the receive queue.

- Message successfully put into the queue.

- The message was successfully retrieved from the receive queue.

- The message status set to DLNG.

- Delivering to channel: FTP_receiver

- MP: entering

- MP: processing local module localejbs/CallSapAdapter

- File adapter receiver: processing started; QoS required: ExactlyOnce

- File adapter receiver channel FTP_receiver: start processing: party " ", service "xyz"

Any idea?

Hi Danny,

just see the user by whicgh you are accessing target system, is having the req file creation permissions on your target system.

Thanks,

Hello,

I tried to execute a manual FTP put with the same uid/pwd and ithis worked.

Hi Danny,

please check XI business system in SLD

inside you will find - <b>pipeline ULR</b>

check the port - if it's j2ee 5XX00 then it's wrong

- change it to http port - 8XXX

(you can find it in TCODE SMICM)

then also check in SXMB_ADM - engine configuration and see if it's ok

there (the same)

retest your scenario and it will work,

Danny, check ur Reciver business system in SLD so that it points correct Ingteration server.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Hi Danny,

just for check......please delete target folder in server Y and again execute your scenario.....again see in adpter monitoring, if there is any error in reciver file adapter.......see the file should be created in server Y if there is no error in recever file adapter....

Thanks,

Rajeev Gupta

[danny_deroovere · Accepted solution]

Hi,

I checked the SLD as suggested and I confirm that everything is (was already) configured as suggested.

[danny_deroovere · Accepted solution]

Hi,

I've deleted the target folder and executed again the scenario.

The result is that the folder is automatically created (I flagged this option in the receiver communication channel), but still the file is not present.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

can you try resend option in RWB

[danny_deroovere · Accepted solution]

Still the same result after resend: to be delivered.

Hi Danny,

increase the timeout in recever file adapter comm channel.....save it and activate it... may be your file is large so it is getting timed out before it is saved in your target directroy so your target file is not getting created in your target directory......

Thanks,

Rajeev Gupta

[danny_deroovere · Accepted solution]

Hi,

I increased the timeout (180 seconds), still the file is not created (status = to be delivered)
