problem using FM : ARCHIVFILE_TABLE_TO_SERVER

Former Member — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 12:03:17 GMT

Hi experts,

I have been trying to upload some data to the application server using the following FM

CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVFILE_TABLE_TO_SERVER'

EXPORTING

TARGETPATH = '/INTERFACE/BILLINGS/Test1.pdf'

length = 10

tables

archivobject = t_line

EXCEPTIONS

ERROR_FILE = 1

OTHERS = 2

When I look into the directory if my pdf was properly uploaded using AL11, there is no problem, I can see the file called Test1.pdf; now if I replace '/INTERFACE/BILLINGS/Test1.pdf'' by wlv_filepath where wlv_filepath is a variable that contains the SAME path as the one I wrote above, I cannot see my file in AL11 !

Debugging the FM showed me that the OPEN DATASET statement returned sy-subrc = 8.

Can anyone help me find the solution to this problem? My goal is to be able to assign any filepath contained in that variable onto the app server.

Proper answers will be rewarded for sure.

C.K.

Hi Cedric,

can you please declared as a STRING

W_FILE_PATH TYPE STRING.

and try.

and follow the below code

CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME_USING_PATH'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

logical_path = c_svfdir

file_name = w_file_name (give your path)

IMPORTING

file_name_with_path = i_physical_fname

EXCEPTIONS

path_not_found = 1

missing_parameter = 2

operating_system_not_found = 3

file_system_not_found = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

CONCATENATE `/tmp/` i_file_name INTO i_physical_fname.

OPEN DATASET i_physical_fname FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8.

LOOP AT itb_csv.

TRANSFER itb_csv TO i_physical_fname.

ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET i_physical_fname.

it is full for you

THANKS & REGARDS,

I tried your code by using variable.

Here it is working fine.

Please check the below code, if you missed something.

data: wlv_filepath type SAPB-SAPPFAD value

'/INTERFACE/BILLINGS/Test1.pdf'.

start-of-selection.

CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVFILE_TABLE_TO_SERVER'

EXPORTING

TARGETPATH = wlv_filepath

length = 10

tables

archivobject = t_line

EXCEPTIONS

ERROR_FILE = 1

OTHERS = 2.
