Naming the File that the Client is to Submit via FTP
When specifying the file name of the file that contains the XML document, use a file extension that Integration Server recognizes as containing XML content. The FTP listener chooses a content handler based on the file extension. You can use one of the following for the file extension:
*A file extension of “xml”.
*An arbitrary file extension that you have registered with the text/xml content type.
To register a file extension with a content type, edit the Integration Server lib\mime.types file, which contains the mappings of file extensions to content types. You can edit the mappings in the lib/mime.types file from Integration Server Administrator by selecting Settings > Resources > Mime Types.
For example, if you want to submit an XML document in a file that has the file extension xml2, add the following to the lib/mime.types file to register xml2 and assign it the text/xml content type:
text/xml xml2
*No file extension
If you want to submit an XML document in a file that has no file extension, edit the lib/mime.types file and add the following to associate the special key, ftp_no_extension with the text/xml content type. Using ftp_no_extension indicate a null extension.
text/xml ftp_no_extension
