IGS - For converting image formats ,issue.....

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We had recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 .

As a requirement i neededed to convert JPG, TIFF, GIF image files to BMP for uploading to SE78 at runtime.

I used the class cl_igs_image_converter for achieving this. Initially it was working as expected and i was able to convert the images as well . It uses a RFC destination IGS_RFC_DEST .

Now all of a sudden , the class throws an error ,

"Could not Reach IGS "

.

When i contacted the Basis team , they say this error is coming because this requires an IGS server, whcih was never installed.

I m really puzzled, if it was so , then how was the same RFC destination working previously .

Please guide me ,do we explicitly need to install and maintain an IGS server for this .!

Thanks in advance.

Hi ,

For TIF images pass this parameter as

i_igs_image_converter->input = g_img_type = 'image/tiff'.
