Specifying current directory in Receiver File Adapter

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have been configuring a receiver file adapter to place a file onto an FTP server. As per the information provided, as soon as I login to the FTP server, I have to place the file in current logged in directory. In this case, how can I mention this in file adapter as to use the current directory path to place the file? What should I enter in 'Target Directory' in File Access Parameters?

Thanks,

Dhawal

Dhawal,

Try specifying '.' for the directory.

Hi Koen,

Specifying "." for the current directory worked. Thanks. Awarded points to you.

when you always login by default it will be the root directory.

But in file receiver file channel the directory is mandatory, and the file adapter channel uses this information for file copies.

Hi Praveen,

Since file directory parameter is mandatory, my question is what should I enter in this parameter so that the file adapter will know that the file should be placed in the root directory itself?

use /

file should be placed in the root directory itself

The root directory will have some name/ IP address....use this in the fiel channel.
