File processing failed with java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException:

[jakob_steen-petersen]

Hi

I´m reading and sending files to an FTP server using SAP PI. I use file content conversion.

Everything has been working fine for months - but now the server was changes to a new host. The only thing changed was the host/user and pass.

But sending too the server fails with this error:

File processing failed with java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -27

Any body who has a clue??

Reading files works ok. And i can transfer files to the FTP server with FileZilla without problems.

This error will appear if index in the string is passing greater than the string size or negative value of index in string.

Check your string size length whereever it is applicable.

Hi

And where do i check the "String size" ?? and why do i need that if only the FTP server has changed? No file content are changed...

[baskar_gopalakrishnan2]

Where do you get exception? Example in the mapping step? Check the data elements ...

Its on the adapter level. All mappings etc are fine. And as i write has been for months. The only thing changed are the FTP server
