File Sender - get files from DB4 and OS400

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm configuring File - IDOC scenario on XI system, which is on Win platform. I want to pick up flat txt files on DB4 and OS400 via FTP but I+m constantly getting message:

Could not process due to error: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550  Not authorized to file /sapmnt/trans/sucelja/sap_izlaz/ksuckd03.txt

What could be a reason for that error, according to OS400 admin, FTP user is ok, and has all rights to acces this file. I also tried to us \ as separator but no luck.

Maybe is important, OS400 is SAP server and /sapmnt/ is mount of where SAP is installed....

thx mario

I solved it. File didn't have appropriate atributes. It is hard to check file attributes on SAP, so I coded program that uses feature of OS400/SAP(not sure which one), that is file and directory structure represented UNIX like, and my program for

ls -al /usr/sap/trans/sucelja/sap_izlaz/ksuckd03.txt

responded with

<i>-rwxrwxrwx 1 dvk10 r3group 2682 Oct 3 12:54 /usr/sap/trans/sucelja/sap_izlaz/ksuckd03.txt</i>

it was not to hard to do

chmod 777 /usr/sap/trans/sucelja/sap_izlaz/ksuckd03.txt
