SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE - returns an error

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am using the FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE to run a unix script which fetches a pdf file written from ABAP code into

application server.

I have written the pdf file, and while run separately the Unix script is working fine.

But the FM which calls the unix script, SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE, returns errors which say that the pdf file could not be opened. I have written the pdf file in binary form on the application server.

Please help.

This is my code:

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'

EXPORTING

format = 'PDF'

max_linewidth = 132

IMPORTING

bin_filesize = gv_bin_filesize

bin_file = gt_bin

TABLES

otf = gt_otf

lines = gt_pdf_tab

EXCEPTIONS

err_max_linewidth = 1

err_format = 2

err_conv_not_possible = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

data: mstr_print_parms LIKE pri_params,

wa_pdf_tab like line of gt_pdf_tab,

it_docs TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF docs,

it_lines TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF tline,

gv_frontfile type string ,

wa_lines type tline.

concatenate gv_file wa_final-pernr '.pdf' into gv_file.

open dataset gv_file for output in binary mode.

transfer gt_bin to gv_file.

close dataset gv_file.

separated by space.

Hi guys,

Issue has been resolved. I was writing the pdf file in the application server, wheras the Unix script had some other directory as its present working directory.

As we are using the same directory for the purpose, this directory and folder name was hard coded in the Unix script as well,

so that the confusion of path is resolved.

Thus this issue was resolved from the Unix script itself.

Thanks.

Anita Jeyan.
