Tcode SM69

[Former Member]

Hi All,
Software Liaison EDI Notepad is intalled in SAP server. I'm trying to convert EDI input file to HTML output file. Input file is stored in SAP server.

I have defined external OS command in SM69 and when executed through ABAP always function module 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'  or 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM' fails with below information.

Internal table o/p it_btcxpm with 2 records
1. Can't exec external program (No such file or directory)   
2. WaitForSingleObject failedwith %d (No such device or address)

Please let me know how to resolve the issue. Any example with explaination will also be helpful.
Any prerequisite is required for a SAP user to execute external OS command (like authorization).

With Regards,
Gandhi Subramani

first you use

CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_LIST_GET'   then

CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_CHECK'       then

CALL FUNCTION 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'
     EXPORTING
       commandname                   = c_extcom
       additional_parameters         = v_dir_input
       operatingsystem               = c_oper
     TABLES
       exec_protocol                 = t_result
     EXCEPTIONS
       no_permission                 = 1
       command_not_found             = 2
       parameters_too_long           = 3
       security_risk                 = 4
       wrong_check_call_interface    = 5
       program_start_error           = 6
       program_termination_error     = 7
       x_error                       = 8
       parameter_expected            = 9
       too_many_parameters           = 10
       illegal_command               = 11
       wrong_asynchronous_parameters = 12
