Troubleshooting
Problem
How to prevent the ACS data transfer program from warning that the file extension does not match the file type.
Symptom
ACS data transfer displays the following warning message if the file extension, for example .txt, does not match the file type selected for the download.
Resolving The Problem
To prevent this warning from displaying the client code level must be at 1.1.8 or greater and one of the following two options must be used.
Start the Java process with the following property: -Dcom.ibm.iaccess.dataxfer.ignoreAmbiguousDownloadExt=true
For example: java -Dcom.ibm.iaccess.dataxfer.ignoreAmbiguousDownloadExt=true -jar acsbundle.jar
This option is best used when the transfer is run from a script or batch file because it is a portable solution that does not depend on the values in the AcsConfig.properties file.
Or add the following to the AcsConfig.properties file:
com.ibm.iaccess.dataxfer.ignoreAmbiguousDownloadExt=trueThis solution would be better for a fix applied to a particular deployment. Adding this entry to the properties file affects all transfers that are run using that deployment.
