Adapter-specific installation information

Before you install WebSphere® Adapter for Flat Files, there are a few additional installation requirements.

Inbound operations

Before you install WebSphere Adapter for Flat Files, make sure the following is completed for inbound operations:

  1. The Event Directory specified must exist in the file system and match the one specified in the ActivationSpecification configuration).
  2. If archiving is enabled, the ArchiveDirectory specified must exist in the file system.
  3. The Event Data Table database parameters specified should be proper, and corresponding database entities must exist.
  4. If the Event Data Table database is not the Cloudscape™ database included with WebSphere Process Server, the database driver must be in the CLASSPATH of the adapter.
  5. If the FFEventTable is created by the user (and not the adapter), the FFEventTable should have the correct schema. Also the FFEventTable should be used exclusively by the adapter and not any other application.
    Note: The Flat Files resource adapter-specific database is created by the adapter only on Cloudscape.

Outbound operations

If the OutputDirectory is specified, make sure it exists in the file system.
