Problem saving in al11

former_member666258 — Thu, 22 Oct 2020 12:59:20 GMT

I'm sending an image to my odata soy my odata calls a fm that converts my xstring image to binary (SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY) table so i can save it in my directory, this is my code:

data: lv_path  type string value '/registrocarga/mifile.jpg'.
open dataset lv_path for output in binary mode message lv_msg.
  if sy-subrc eq 0.
    mensaje = 'S'.
    loop at lt_orblk assigning field-symbol(<dat>).
      transfer  <dat> to lv_path.
    endloop.
    close dataset lv_path.
  else.
    mensaje = 'E'.
  endif.
  delete dataset lv_path.


all my code executes it with sy-subrc eq 0 but when i go to tx al11 to check if the images are there, they are not.

I have to mention that i use tx cg3z to test if i'm able to storage files in my directory and i could save 1 test image and that al11 repository is a shared folder between two systems ( i don't know if that's relevant)

Any ideas what i coul d be happening ?

You create a file and immediately delete it?

You're right! thank you a lot! Can i ask you something else? i'm triying to save an image is coming as base64 in xstring so i use SCMS_BASE64_ENCODE_STR but alfter save, download and open that image in windows it tells me that is not a correct format, maybe i'm saving in incorrect format ?

Pic --> Base64 --> Xstring ?

so when you open the file you expect Windows will understand to do a Xstring --> Base64 --> Pic ?

Why didn't you save directly the pic ? Pic --> Binary File and Windows will be really happy with this
