Hi Vinay,

Firstly, Since the scenario works perfectly, so all your design & configuration are OK.

Now, there can be Two reasons why PI is not able to delete the file and process it (during Delete Mode):

(The Problem will persists if you use Archive Mode also)

Prob 1. The directory is write protected or read only

Prob 2. The file is write protected or read only

Solution:

If Unix System

Soln for Prob 1. - go to the directory structure

for ex: if directory where file is kept is /staging/Interface/PI/Test/inbox/

then go to /staging/Interface/PI/Test/ and give command ls -lrt

It will show the directory names with permisions.

use chmod 777 inbox and the permissions willl be changed ( drwxrwxrwx )

Soln for Prob 2. - Get inside /staging/Interface/PI/Test/inbox/ and give command ls -lrt

if the file does not have authorizations as (-rwxrwxrwx) give chmod 777 <filename> and then give command touch <filename>

If Windows System

Soln for Prob 1. - Goto the directoty and right click on the folder and deselect the Read Only Checkbox.

Soln for Prob 2. - Right Click on the file and deselect the Read Only Checkbox

Try again and the scenario will work surely. Let me know if any issues.

Hi Vinay,

Contact your FTP administrator and ask him to provide the file access permissions to Delete the file with your userid.

Hi Vinay,

In this case you can give full permissions for the folder whichi you are trying to access and then try to delete the file.

Cheers!!!

Hi

Try giving full permission to the file which is placed on the server

If you have unix access

Try doing chmod <filename> 777 . After this File will have full permissions

Hi Vinay,

This clearly shows that you do not have permissions/authorizations with the username used in the file adapter to delete the file. Contact your FTP team regarding the same.

Ask to FTP Administrator, your User ID has deletion authorization ?

The problem is only for authorization.
