Hi all,

I am facing some problem while downloading the data to presentation server.In the program they are using the FM 'WS_DOWNLOAD' to download the file.But its not working and setting the sy-subrc eq 2 which means 'Cannot Write to File'.wat could be the possible reasons?

Thanks..

Might be the file name is already exitings? or the path is invalid

Check if you have rights to create files in the folder folder.

Hi,

That error pops up if you donot have authorizations in creating/writing a file on the presentation server ...and also if the file path that you have given is incorrect......

* download report to file
  CALL FUNCTION 'WS_DOWNLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      filename = 'C:tempreport.txt'
      filetype = 'ASC'
    TABLES
      data_tab = it_report.

Check whether you have passed the parameters as per this

Hi,

The data could not be loaded into the front end file. Possible reasons:

- File name has the wrong format

- Error in operating system or network

- No authorization to create or write to this file

- Data locked by another user
