Showing DIR Original file size zero

[Manish_PLM]

Hello Experts,

We are sending binary files (ex, pdf, etc..) to AL11 folder directory and then middleware makes BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 call to create SAP DIR. Everything is fine except DIR original file size shows zero.

Upon checking SLG1, one error says content repo cannot be addressed from the frontend.

Checked DC20 config, and other permissions are in place.

Can somebody help me to resolve this ?

Regards,

Manish

Dear Manish,

based on similar issues I know the BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 faces issues with the upload of files from the application server. In these cases the following options could help to improve the situation: 

Define a Physical path for the Logical path 'KPRO_IMPORT_EXPORT' - open transaction FILE and in Logical File Path Definition find Logical Path 'KPRO_IMPORT_EXPORT'. Select it and double click 'Assignment of Physical Paths to Logical Path' and define the Physical path same path of what gave while creating DIR. Also please read the recommendations at KBA 0003462328 - "Error SG 813 related to DMS_LOG_FILE_PATH" as well.

• Switch off the validation enforcement switch - open transaction SM30 for Table/View FILECMCUST and click Maintain. Here change the configuration for parameter 'REJECT_EMPTY_PATH' from 'ON' to 'OFF'. This option is discouraged .You can refer to note 2395138 Solution 2 for more information.

Thank you Christopf. I have checked these recommendation. The first one is pointed to different AL11 path already for other use case and second one is set. However, my problem is, despite that it works in my lower sap landscape C1S and not only in Q1S. Could you suggest what could be the possibly wrong in Q1S. After debugging and comparing both landscapes, we found a FM called HTTP_POST_FILES_255 is showing permission denied and it does not get captured in SU53 or SLG1. Please suggest if there is a way to fix this.
