Hi Seshu,

They created a folder in Application Server.I went to application server and sawed the path where the folder got created .I am using that path for accessing Application server.Now I am using a varinat for my slection screen program.In my selection screen program i am mentioning path.Then i am executing the program in Background using SM 36 and SM 37.I am getting Error as 'No file or Directory'. Path is ' /interfaces/QR3/MM/ZMMOF3007/ZMMOF3007_bkpf.txt ' .

Hello Gopi,

Check with path in AL11 /interfaces/QR3/MM/ZMMOF3007/ZMMOF3007_bkpf.txt ' this is case sensitive

Hi Seshu,

I checked the path in AL11.I was not able to find the that text file.Thast why i am asking does we need to create any text file or not?

I asked 3 hours back for creating the folder.They told that its done.Is there any security issue to get solved once they created does it have any intermediate process like Security thing ?

Thanks,

Gopi.

Can you tell me whether the file in unix server has been created or not ??

In case only folder exists and there is no file in folder you need to create a file using OPEN DATASET....FOR OUTPUT or ask your PM to create the required file in the mentioned folder

Hi Seshu,

I didn't developed the program.Some previous developer's developed and i am using that one for just single dump.

Gopi,

You don't have to create the file. It should be done by the program. Just to make sure you are using "open data set" not 'Gui_download'.

Check the following..

1. The user has access to the folder (no security issue)

2. you have appropriate path (there is a difference between / and \ )

3. Handle the sy-subrc to know what kind of error you get from the program

Gopi,

May be your are trying to open an incorrect directory. Check the whole path and make where it is the correct file path where you want to put your files.

use SXDB Transaction

GOTO SXDB Transaction -> object 0010 -> enter -> click on copy button -> select option from as local file and to as application server file.

This is 4.6C Version navigation

Reward points if it is helpful

Thanks

Hi,

Before writing file appl server check whether directory exist or not.

* Read directories of an application server
  CALL FUNCTION 'RZL_READ_DIR'
       EXPORTING
            name           = directory
            nrlines        = 1
       TABLES
            file_tbl       = file_table
       EXCEPTIONS
            argument_error = 1
            not_found      = 2
            send_error     = 3
            OTHERS         = 4.


Which return the list of files in such a directory. Look also at Function Group SAL3

Please FTP to move the file to application server using some telnet client. but before that check whether you write auth to directory.
