Hi Khan,

Thanks for reply felt happy by seeing one reply to my question.

This might be small issue,but it is big thing to me i am begginer in webMethods…

I did exactly how they done in that link…but .txt file not generating my service and i am confusing in some place.please guide me how to do this flowservice…

1)FF_Practise.services:select_order_details
service out pipeline out
Select_Order_dtailsOutput <–> Select_Order_dtailsOutput

2)converToString
pipeline In service In

Order_details(Order_potest_schemaDT)<-link—>ffvalues
ffschema(FF_Practise.Schema:Order_potest_schema)

3)sample.IO.test:writeToFile

   pipeline In                                            service In

string <-----> filecontent
filename(C:\sample\test\cc.txt)
overwriteflag(Overwrite)

These r the flow steps in my service…

Have you defined the file location where you want to generate file in WmPublic/config/fileaccess.cnf file?
What does that writeToFile service do? You can use pub.file:stringToFile directly.
Post the errors in server.log if you get any.

Try to do a debug step by step and let us know where you were stuck up:

  1. Does your select Adapter service run successfully giving you the DB output.
  2. Have your Db values successfully converted to a string variable.

If you have the output of these steps then its not a big deal to get a file as an output.

Share your errors with us.

Thanks,

Hi niteesh,

     Thanks for reply,i didn't try StringtoFile and i didn't set file location also.

       Directly i am giving file path somethig like C:\sample\test\cc.txt in my flow service.

Then server will throw error saying the path has not been defined in allowed path list. Its a must and try that ,let us know if you still face issues.
