Sender Channel Connection problem

[Former Member]

Hi ,

I am getting the following error in the Adapter monitoring under RWB.

<b> Error: ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

- 2007-05-04 09:41:42 CEST: Processing started</b>

This happen all out of a sudden. I changed nothing in the Sender CC.

I also added a "\" towards the end of the directory access path in the sender CC.

What do you think is the problem ??

Hi chandra,

Where and how do I change the "connection type" from active to passive (or vice versa)

Chandra,

I am not using FTP. I am using NFS only.

Bhavesh,

How to check if the Mode is "Permanent " for the file adapter.

I tried reactivating and recreating a new commn channel. same errror flashes again.

The option described by me is for FTP.

Hi,

The below was already explained

This problem is either caused by incorrect firewall .

Changing the connection type from 'active' to 'passive' (or vice versa) might additionally help to work around the incorrect firewall configuration

Also check the correct IP address and the user authorisations to access the folder.

Or, maybe the Connect Mode in file adapter is <b>Permanent</b> and the connection has been reset by the FTP server.

Try to activate the comm channel once again and check if it works.

HI,

Are you using FTP as sender?

This problem is either caused by incorrect firewall / packet filter settings or an incorrect configuration of the FTP server. Also make sure that you have correctly specified the host name / IP address and port of the FTP server.

Changing the connection type from 'active' to 'passive' (or vice versa) might additionally help to work around the incorrect firewall configuration

see SAP Note No:821267

Michael,

I am not using FTP and moreover I am sharing another users account temporarily and that user is able to pull the files into XI....

Vinod,

I am using it for a file adapter with a custom module.

I shall try restarting the server

Thanks

Hi-

The problem is you are not able to connect XI to your source directory.

What scenario are you using.

Try to restart the server once if possible.

Hi,

someone blocked the connection between XI and your folder

do you use FTP ? check if XI still has access to this FTP
