Error in sender file adapter: source directory does not exist

[Former Member]

Hi,

The PI system is 7.11

I've created sender file adapter with following details:

Transport Protocol : File System

Source directory: /interfaces/In

I checked in AL11 that this path really exists and it does. (I can even see the .txt file that should be processed.)

But still i get in Communication Channel Monitoring the following error:

"Configured Source directory "/interfaces/In" does not exist.

(i also tried to give the source directory as "interfaces/In" and as "//interfaces/In" but still the same error.

Any suggestions as to what is wrong?

Hi,

Yes i could try that, but not sure if it will work.

Has it ever worked for you?

I always learned (and have allways used) that the slashes should always be forward slashes.

Hello,

Please check whether you are using NFS or FTP transport protocol.

also check shared directory kind of things.

Actually, Need to use forward slash (/) to separate directory names in accordance with the Java specification.

But wanted to try if that works..

Also check directory name , path again as this is case sensitive...

Sry for wasting your time people:

The path i gave was interfaces/In where it should have been interfaces/in.

I thought i checked and rechecked that.

Well i saw it when i re-re-re-checked it.

(grrr)

Hi Robert,

I think you r working in LINUX/UNIX system. Then the path is perfectly fine /interfaces/In. It appears your directory does not have necessary permission bits set. Please ask yoir BASIS team to set permission status of /interfaces/In

to drwxrwxrwx with chmod command.
