Hi all,

Can someone tell me how to create a directory on the application server in BACKGROUND ?

GUI_CREATE_DIRECTORY() is not working on the background.

Thanks.

I found this code from some other SDN posts:

call function 'GUI_CREATE_DIRECTORY'
     exporting
dirname = '//<ip_address>/qfilesvr400/<host>/usr/sap/TST/SYS/Folder1'
     exceptions
          failed  = 1
          others  = 2.

I am not sure wheather it will work in the background mode.

Regards,

Hi,

I think you need to give the path like this way


call function 'GUI_CREATE_DIRECTORY'
     exporting
          dirname = '//10.145.14.156/safil/<give your host name >/usr/temp/myFolder'
     exceptions
          failed  = 1
          others  = 2.

or use fm SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE after create a os command script thru SM69
