No adapter registered for this channel for SFTP adapter

[former_member184948]

Hi Experts,

In our project, we have completed phase1 in which  systems used are called N systems where as now for second phase we are using N+1 systems.

In N landscape, SAP PI SFTP adapter was downloaded from service market place and used in Dev and from there I just exported the complete SWC from ESR and imported in quality, pp and prod, and SFTP adapter was working there.So, now for N+1 landsacpe too I decided to export import the SWC from Dev N environment to Dev N+1 , but in Communication channel monitoring I am getting error:No adapter registered for this channel.

I have seen few links in scn where people have asked similar question and in one of them a person had been asked to restart the java application : com.sap.aii.adapter.sftp.app, so I tried doing this , but I dont find this application in my NWA for N+1 dev ,where as in all the four N environment servers have this application running green.What could be the issue here? I suppose, my importing this adapter in server doesn't create this application and infact this should be already be available right?

Hi Dilip,

did you saw the below thread?

you need the PGP modules to be installed on server.

Thanks Harish,

Just a few qs,

1)Where do I check if PGP is not installed already?

2)In past when I wanted to use SFTP I just imported the files which I downloaded from service market place, I did not do anything extra to get PGP modules installed.

3)But I rememer when we wanted to do PGP encryption at that time we applied JCA unlimted policy for some boucy castle error.

Hi Dilip,

you can check the below document page 6 (page 2 from index)

>>> 1)Where do I check if PGP is not installed already?

go to http:// host : port /nwa/sysinfo -> component info -> type pgp (under name) which should display PIB2BPGP component.

You can search with "SFTP" in order to verify if the SFTP add-on has been deployed.

>>>2)In past when I wanted to use SFTP I just imported the files which I downloaded from service market place, I did not do anything extra to get PGP modules installed.

Yes. Refer to the document that i shared in my previous reply.

Thanks Hareesh,

You were right!! along with the tpz file for the adapter metadata the service market also provides 2 SCA files for PGP and one more, which my basis team deployed using JSPM and now the channel is working.

Thanks.

No. You need to deploy the connectivity add-on on that specific system in order to see that application.

Importing metadata doesn't get you the functionality, it just let's you choose /configure the adapter in ID

This might have already deployed in your QA/Prod systems by basis and hence just exporting and importing basis content worked for you.

Thanks Hareesh,

I did not know that piece of information.

So, does that mean I should ask my basis team as to why is that application missing in the new server?

[former_member184720]

Yeah.. In other words you can ask them deploy this add-on on the new system.

just FYI -> go through below document
