GUI_UPLOAD from unix server

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I m trying to use gui_upload fm to get a file on an unix server but I have an error 'File not exist'

I have try with an dataset and all work fine then I suppose that the path must be change to be suitable with the FM...?

data infile type string.

infile = '/X/Y/Z.SAP'.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
  EXPORTING
   filename                      = name
   FILETYPE                      = 'ASC'
  tables
    data_tab                      = itab.

The same path works with dataset 😕

The file is text.

Thanks,

I don't think you can work with that GUI_UPLOAD Function to read the unix file. unless you are working directly on application server.

are you..?

You right : gui_upload used for work in local and dataset to work in server !

Thx
