Error with a File Sender interface

[Former Member]

Hi gentz,

we have an error with an interface which we can't explain. We are using a File Sender Adapter with File Transfer Protocol.

We are receiving the following eror:

<i><b>Could not process file '0080953854-071201.csv': com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 SAPUIT: The system cannot find the file specified</b></i>

It seems that we can see that there is a file present, but it also is saying that the file can not be found.

We already tested the connection with a separate FTP program, and here we have no errors in retrieving the file.

Has anybody got a clue what we are doing wrong???

Thanks in advance!

HI,

Did you check the file properties , in which mode read only. or ??

And check the sender file adapter configuration , the file name,procssing mode..

and connection parameters..

Hi Peter,

see that the file on the file-server has really the name: '0080953854-071201.csv'

Also make sure that the user XI logs on has the appropriate rights.

Hi Mario,

the file has the same name on the file server.

The rights should also be ok, since we can retrieve the file with an FTP program (with the same name and password).

Hi Peter,

which Tool do you use as FTP-Client (WS_FTP)?

Make sure taht you refresh the client (F5); WS_FTP does not automatically refresh.

But I also suggest to copy and paste the filename agin from folder on server into your communication channel.

Sometimes the filenames are different, but the eyes are to tired

Peter,

I had this problem, which persists yet...:-(

Just have a look into this thread and see if the replies in this thread help you

Jai,

thanks for your reply on my message. I found my error!!

I forgot a backslash in my source directory.

The strange thing is, that XI seemed to find the file in the old situation. So i think that it also looks in sub directories, but with the actual processing it only looks in the entered source directory.

Maybe this is also an option for you??
