File Adapter: Target directory does not exist

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Using RFC to File Scenario.

While processing in File adapter, i get following error for the target directory.

Delivering the message to the application using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Target directory '
*********************\Out' does not exist and cannot be created.

Although I am able to use the same target directory on my local machine.

Try another slash... /../../out/

Try with create target directory option , if it creates then enter valid direcotry.

Thanks for your reply.

But I am already using create target directory.

I think FTP user didnt have suffiecinet otherrization to create directory in FTP, check once again Directory format entered is correct.

if you have phycial access to FTP then create one folder and enter the same in File channel and push one message and let us know the result.

my transport protocol is NFS.

i created new folder, but it's giving the same error.

Do folder needs some extra authorization for PI system to access. but the directory exists in the PI system itself so I don't think it would require authorization.

Hi,

Yes, you do need to assign authorization to this target folder for the user that you use in PI for authorizing connections. Moreover, if you want PI to create a directory, your user should also be authorized to do this.

Hope this helps,
