FTP Receiver Adapter parameters

[Former Member]

Hello everyone!

I have configured a scenario wherein XI sends a <b>PO.xml</b> file to a folder in an FTP server through the File Adapter (Receiver).

Right now, I'm getting an error:

<i><b>Error Category: XI_J2EE_ADAPTER_FILE

Error Code: PROCESSING_ERROR</b></i>

in the adapter engine.

Would anyone know what might be causing this?

Could you guys also confirm parameters in the receiver adapter configuration for me?

Here they are:

1. <i>Target Directory:</i>

Would this be an example of a correct entry: "<b>c:\POxmls</b>" ? Should the slashes be "\" or "/"

2. <i>Filename scheme:</i>

"<b>POXML.xml</b>"

3. <i>Server:</i>

<b>203.121.78.163</b>

4. <i>Data Connection:</i>

<b>Passive</b>

5. <i>Connect Mode:</i>

<b>Permanently</b>

6. <i>Transfer Mode:</i>

<b>Binary</b>

7. <i>Empty-Message Handling:</i>

<b>Write Empty File</b> should this be "Ignore" instead?

8. <i>File Type</i>

<b>Text</b> should this be "Binary" instead?

Anything else I missed out?

Hope you guys can help me on this!

Regards,

Glenn

HI,

1)<i>Would this be an example of a correct entry: "c:\POxmls" ? Should the slashes be "\" or "/"</i>

It should be '<b>//</b> xxxxx<b>/</b>xxxxx'

7)Ignore

8)Text or Binary

Rest all Ok.

On Windows it should be "\".

On Unix it should be "/".

hmm... I seem to be getting conflicting responses.

The FTP server is running Windows, but if I were to use "
" instead of "c:\" how would XI know which drive to save the file?

Yaghya, how should it be defined in XI? "c:\..." or "
...."

warm regards,

Glenn

Glenn,

Do u want to specify NFS location or FTP location?

If you connect to FTP server from ur desktop will u use C:\ ? , then its not FTP server Glen, its NFS. Your sever must have IP Address.

First try to connect to ur FTP server , Ftp://address/ . If your file is under Ftp://Address/PO.xml, then in the adapter u must give /PO.XML .

Best regards,

raj.
