Parsing an empty source. Root element expected!

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am using SFTP adapter in my Sender CC and getting error message as below and also my XML data message is empty. I can't figure out what is the problem, and if I use the same Message Mapping in a Sender CC with file adapter and it works fine:

RuntimeException during appliction Java mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_EmployeurD_Filter_to_EmployeeImport_ Thrown: com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException: Parsing an empty source. Root element expected!

I have my mapping and Transformation in my Sender CC with SFTP adapter as below.

1. Mapping:

2. Transformation in Sender CC. I didn't put Header element below, since I didn't define Header in my Data Type:

Thanks for your advice!

Hi,

Please check RecordSet of Target structure is mapped with RecordSet of Sender structure 1 to 1.

I forgot to mention that my source Data Type does not have Header and Key field for Record either, I just hardcoded as below:

Hi Blue,

You dont have key field in your structure that is why MessageTransformBean with StructPlain2XML conversion generated empty payload because StructPlain2XML needs key fields in structure.

If your structure is simple structure then you can use 'SimplePlain2XML'.  You no need to mention the key fields in your configuration.

you can refer below blog for more details.
