FTP-adapter not picking all files

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have scenario, where FTP should pick a file and post it as a idoc to SAP. Now it happens that FTP pick's some files and leaves some out.

The parameters are:

File name = *

Connection mode = Per file transfer

Quality of service = Exactly once

Poll interval (secs) = 3000

If I look at the adapter monitoring the last polling interval was done yesterday morning. How's that possible if interval is 3000 seconds?

Hi Tapio,

We also faced the same problem but it was with NFS protocol. Can you pls check with the help of your System Administrator, after putting some more new files into the relevant folder and see what all are the privileges that is coming to each file and also the user group its saying for the files, especially the ones which are not picked.

There is a chance that the one which is not picked can be of a different user group and your FTP user is belonging to different user group.

We are in XI 3.0 SP15..

Pls check the same.

Hi,

The * you specified corresponds only to the filename.

The adapter expects the extension also. Try .

You must have already done the file content conversion, so the above must work.

Hi Tapio,

Your file adapter, expects the name of the file along with the extension, and so if you want all files of any extension to be picked up, then give .

and if you want say only xml files to be picked, then you will have to give it as *.xml.

Hi Tapio,

Try giving the file name as . or *.xml .....based on what your requirement is.....if you use . then you will need content conversion also.
