CALL FUNCTION 'EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_PATH'
* EXPORTING
*   EPS_SUBDIR                   = 'log'
   DIR_NAME                     = 'DIR_TMP'
* IMPORTING
*   DIR_NAME                     =
 EXCEPTIONS 
  INVALID_EPS_SUBDIR           = 1
  SAPGPARAM_FAILED             = 2
  BUILD_DIRECTORY_FAILED       = 3
   OTHERS                       = 4
          .
if sy-subrc <> 0.
"the directory not present.
endif.

Hi Vijay,

How should I use the parameter EPS_SUBDIR in the function module. If I don't pass it then it gives error for the valid directory too.

Thanks in advance

This works pretty good for me.

REPORT ZRICH_0001 .

type-pools: abap.

data: path type string.
data: result type abap_bool.


path = '\<host>usrsapTSTSYS'.


CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_EXIST
  EXPORTING
    DIRECTORY            = path
  RECEIVING
    RESULT               = result
  EXCEPTIONS
    CNTL_ERROR           = 1
    ERROR_NO_GUI         = 2
    WRONG_PARAMETER      = 3
    NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI = 4
    others               = 5.

if result = 'X'.
  Write:/ 'Directory Exists'.
else.
  Write:/ 'Directory not found'.
endif.

Use PFL_CHECK_DIRECTORY

Hi All,

I have found out one function module RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL which works fine to check the existence of the directory on the application server.

Thanks a lot to all of you who have replied to the query.
