I put 1 .jpg file in the unix file system . The name of the file is in French language.Now when I am looking the folder on which I kept the file using AL11 transaction from SAP , I do not see anything . My SAP system is unicode enabled.

Any idea why.......

Hello Kousik,

I would first suggest, you check at DB level if the file is stored. If you can c at DB level then there is an issue in AL11.

File is not stored in DB. it is in UNIX file system.

I am just mapping the folder in UNIX in AL11 to see the file from SAP.

No, I am not looking on wrong diretory. Becuase I put one new file in the same directory with English name and I can able to see that file from al11.

Hi,

F4_DXFILENAME_TOPRECURSION will give u an option to choose any path(folder) in the app.server which needn't be a standard path as in the case of F4_FILENAME_SERVER.

Hi,

Are u able to read the file back after writing it..

What is the value of Sy-subrc when u open the dataset for reading..

Please check if u open it for reading..

If yes,

I c the problem might be because the file name being in French.

Translate the file name to lowercase before writing..

SET LOCALE LANGUAGE 'FR'

TRANSLATE gv_filename TO LOWER CASE.

SET LOCALE LANGUAGE space.

Try one thing , Using FM C13Z_APPL_TO_FRONT_END , checkout if you’re able to download file or not ?

Let us know!!

Normally it doesn’t happen like that . Also go to ST11 and see any error log ?

Also connect with your application server at OS level and try to see the directory and file.

Hope this’ll give you idea!!

<b>P.S award the points.</b>

Good luck

Thanks
