PI AS2 file format issue

[Former Member]

Hello,

We use PI 7.0 + SeeBurger AS2 Adapter 1.7.3. on HP UNIX server

We are able to receive files where the format is dos/windows ANSI but when the format is Unix ANSI we cannot get it.

we used before XI 3.0 and Seeburger 1.6 and we never had this problem

is there any parameter to change ?

thank you

YES. Dos/Windows files are different from UNIX files because of extra carriage return in Windows file that dosen't exist in UNIX based systems.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline

 When viewing a file from a Windows computer on a Unix system, the extra CR may be displayed as ^M at the end of each line or as a second line break. 

Convertion Utility

 On many Unix systems, the dos2unix (sometimes named fromdos or d2u) and unix2dos (sometimes named todos or u2d) utilities are used to translate between ASCII CR+LF (DOS/Windows) and LF (Unix) newlines.

So, you can either convert the files or Change the Seeburger config accordingly.
