LSMW File Upload from application server

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am uploading a tab delimited text file from application server. After reading in display read data character '#' is appearing at the end of each recod in the last filed of source structure.

obiviously the same is getting passed in convert and appears in display convert data too.

When i do the same by uploading file from local desktop instaed of apps server, i dont have any such proble and evrything works fine.

I have done all the settings as suggested by SAP;

Hi,

There is an extra return character in the file after each record which is being displayed. Remove that character & it would work fine.

check your application server file in tcode AL11 is there any # in the file

or

use tcode CG3Y download the firl from application server to your system and check the file has contains # or not..

in lsmw SPECIFY files step click the file path its dispaly the one more window here in the last of the screen you find the CODE PAGE here Replacement char. there you can put # or any other character and check.

[Former Member]

No, file does not cintain any # at end of each record.

i checked at application server and evn as i told you , same file works fine when loaded from frontend.

Hi

Other than tab delimiter use other delimiters like comma or pipe and then test. Hope your problem will be solved.
