How to activate the File Adapter

[Former Member]

Hi All,

There is a strange problem that i am faceing now.

I am using a file adapter to push and pull the file. The problem is just before two days the file adapter was working fine but as the location for the file pushing(file location) was not correct , so it went in the HOLD status. I just cancle the queue to make it clear and then re processed the file .

The starange thing is that it is now not picking of the file , when checked the adapter monitoring, i found that the file adapter is in grey status saying "inactive Led : Component status is not defined "

So also i dont found any item (communication channel) for file adapter.

Any idea from your side will be a great help for me.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks prateek for the wonderful blog.

But i just need to know is it happened that the adapters sometimes automatically get stopped or there is any dependency in that.

I am definitely looking the notes you have suggested and will come up with the output what ever i got.

Yes the adapters that vanished after a full cache refresh now appering but the file adapter is still in the deactivated stage.

thanks a lot.

Hi,

I think it is cache problem refresh cache, it will work. If it is not work after refresh restart J2EE engine. Hope now will work.

Hi,

When you activate or deactivate the adapter, then its corresponding services in the J2EE engine become active and inactive.

If possible try to manually activate it. Or try to do some changes in your channel and activate it.

If still this problem persist, do full adapter cache refresh.

And finally restart J2EE engine if possible.

Thanks

Thanks Sumit,

But the channel is not yellow. it is in grey status, which basically means the adapter is inactive. There are about 50-60 communication channel, and this is not the case of one only.

Hope you got the problem , if not then please let me know.

Thanks a lot

hi,

go to RWB communication channel and select u r communication channel and start it manually, so it will start u r communication channel,

coming to HOLD.. may be u r using EOIO , plz change it to EO.. so u r messages will not be in hold in future..

Thanks,

Hi,

PI adapters are grey, adapter engine is blank for some adapters

Thanks

HI Jay,

channel is

yellow.it happens when there is no file picked up.

make a dummy change to your channel.and reactivate it once.

you can reduce the polling interval of the adapter.

once channel will pick up the file.
