hi all:

When trying to implement a senario , there is an error message by checking RWB --> component monitoring .

1 Configured source directory 'D:\sender' does not exist . but D:\sender does exsit ,as I have checked.

what's more, according to short log, Communication Channel is correctly configurated and started.

Could you please tell me the possible reason ? D:\sender does exsit on the technical server .

Thank you very much!

Hi Sony

Are you trying to do NFS or FTP?

As its not XI server it should be FTP. Moreover is the User you have configured is able to access correct location please verify.

With this as stated above if the system where the folder exist is windows you can do \ and it not then /

Thanks

Hi Sony,

If you are using the NFS then create the same directories in the XI Server installed system and execute the scenario, then it works fine without giving any error.

If you want to read the files from otherthan XI installed system then you have to use the FTP server to read those files.

And also check the path exactly while maintaining in the Communication channel.

Hi

If you are using FTP adapter, then directory location would be on FTP server. Just Provide Directory name that have file. "/Directory" only instead of "D:/Directory".

Hi,

Are you shure that you directory situated in the root of disc D on SAP XI server?

P.S. From my experience If you use MS Windows you should use '\' in path but if POSEX standard systems (for example Linux or HP-UX) then '/'.

Hi,

Extracted from help.sap:

Source Directory

Specify the directory where the files to be processed are located.

You can either specify the entire path name or a name relative to the working directory of the Adapter Engine. In all platforms (including Windows), use a forward slash (/) to separate directory names in accordance with Java specification.
