Multiple session handling in the Web UI

Hi all,
According to the SAP help documentation, a user can have multiple sessions open in the Web UI. However after a certain period, inactive sessions are terminated. This is certainly the behaviour that we witness on our system, the second inactive session times out after about 25 minutes.
Does anyone know how to adjust the time out of this second session, this appears to be independent of the general timeout for htttp which is set at 2hours according to the transaction SMICM.
Thanks in advance
Paul

Follow the steps mentioned by Pankaj.
Even after this the debugger did not start, do the steps below so that HTTP debugger is on
1) Run the T-code SICF
2) Search for the service name CRM_UI_FRAME in the service name. click on F8
3) Select CRM_UI_FRAME and click on the Edit Menu. Select the option Debugging --> Activate Debugging
4) This opens a pop up, give your user name and click on OK.
Now start running the application. The debugger should start.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Vinay

'MAPI Session Handle' of the NGW 'Object Request Broker' could not be accessed (0x80004005) on attempt to get an address book

Hi!
When I try to access GW address book by calling
DIGWAccount6::GetSystemAddressBook, or DIGWAccount6::AddressBooks, or even
DIGWMessage::Send, I'm getting messagebox with title "Address Book Error"
and message: "The 'MAPI Session Handle' of the Novell GroupWise 'Object
Request Broker' could not be accesses. The address book cannot run (error:
status: 0x80004005)."
I'm using .NET and I only get this error when I create a console
application. With windows application everything goes fine.
I've tried reinstalling GW client, running fixmapi utility, installing
different versions of MAPI CDO, but still got this problem.
Any ideas?

In the Application object.

Implementation of session handling for using web services

Hi,
I would like to use session handling in web services using ABAP stack in order to start the session with an user login function followed by other RFC calls till a user logout. So far, I found only the following help note in the SAP online help:
Interface Profile
In the interface profile, choose the required processing type: Stateful or Stateless.
A stateful service retains its status within the framework of a HTTP session throughout several calls form the same service consumer. The standard value for services is Stateless.If you require stateful communication, you can choose this instead.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/de/45/25291b5a2657c0e10000000a1553f7/content.htm |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/45/25291b5a2657c0e10000000a1553f7/content.htm]
Please, could someone explain me the further required steps of SAPs session handling idea cause just settting the status to stateful is still not the solution itself...
Regards,
Jens

Now, I found the possible scenarios, suggest by SAP Help, regarding security for Web Services ([http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/48/8ebbba66be06b2e10000000a42189b/content.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/48/8ebbba66be06b2e10000000a42189b/content.htm]):
- SAML & WS SecureConversation -> SSO
- WS Security UsernameToken & WS SecureConversation
- User ID and Password in HTTP Header & HTTPS
- SAP Authentication Assertion Ticket & HTTPS -> SSO
- X.509 SSL Client Certificate through HTTPS
- WS Security: X.509 Certificate Authentication at Message Level
Are scenarios with SSO the solution for creating sessions!?

How to remove Bean from session upon leaving the web page?

Hi...
I got the following problem
I promote a user with a Datatable filled with data, each time the user enters the webpage with the table I go the DB and retrieve all relevant data again (so each time the user gets an OnLine representation of the DB)
to archive that I defined the bean that pulls data from DB in Request scope. and it worked well... but now i added an option to export the table into Pdf made by a servlet.... now to be able to get the bean from the servlet i had to change the scope of the Bean to Session Scope... and all works fine.. BUT... now the page not showing OnLine representation of the DB.. cause its only created once , cause its inside Session Scope...
My question is how can I remove the Bean from Session scope upon the user leaving the page (I don't want to remove the bean from session scope on the next called bean of the other page) i want to remove the Bean upon leaving the current web page... Or maybe force the constructor to be executed each time the Page is loaded (as if it was a Request scope bean)....
Any ideas?
Thanks ahead!
Daniel.

Hi,
When you are moving to another page, you are performing an action right ?
(i mean the request moving to Server side), if you do so, then clear the bean object values list.
for example :
private List<Integer> intList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
public void clear()
intList.clear();
or
store a new object in session, when ever u moved to the second page, so that the old object will be no longer
in use, so it will be garbage collected.Regards,
Sathya.

Event handling in the Web - Which class/interface deals with event control

Hello all,
When you execute a template (that was created within SAP BEx WAD) in the web browser
and you click on a web item with the cursor then an event is started. In which class or
interface is the event control implemented?
Thanks a lot for any helpful comments!
Anna

Depends on the web item. Check out CLRSRWWW ABAP Classes.

How to view the session in the web container

hi, Folks,
is there any way to view the sessions in J2EE web container? I need to know how many living session currently in the web container.
Thanks

You did not indicate the Web Server version that you are using for web container. Assuming its Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, per Servlet 2.3 specification, you should be able to use of session creation and destruction events. This can be done using HttpSessionListener to count active sessions. Here's the docs for reference:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpSessionListener.html

IEnterpriseSession.logoff does not kill the web session

Hi,
i can reproduce the following problem in my application also with the
BusinessObjects Enterprise Java SDK Sample JSP Application.
- start the application
- select Schedule And View Web Intelligence Documents
- Login with user A
- View a Webi Report
- Logoff
- select Schedule And View Web Intelligence Documents
- Login with user B
- View the same Webi Report
The second call of the Webi Report with openDocument.jsp will takeover the
web session of the first call
and create the report with user A.
Only closing the whole Internet Explorer helps.
So my assumption is that IEnterpriseSession.logoff kills only the enterprise
session and not the web session.
Any help?
regards
Gordon

Hi, Gordon,
You are correct in that IEnterpriseSession.logoff kills only the enterprise session and not the web session.
When using openDocument.jsp, the only thing in the URL that changes between calls are the parameters (everything after openDocument.jsp). Because of this, the browser sees it as a cache hit and re-uses the credentials it already has. The only way to get it to use different credentials is to exit the browser and reload it. Opening new windows from the current browser isn't good enough.
There's an SAP Knowledge Base Article about this:
[1384047 - OpenDoc Is Not Using the Correct Logon Token|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1384047]
It's a little involved, but basically it says that this is expected behavior and that the only way around it is to change your code to use the Enterprise SDK instead of openDocument and to manage the logon tokens yourself.
Hope this helps.

Selective Cache-control in the web server

I am using weblogic 8.1 as the app server and Sun one 6.1 as the web server
In my obj.conf of the web server we have this
PathCheck fn="set-cache-control" control="private"
This caches all the pages.
But I don't want some pages to be cached in our site.
For this, I tried setting "no-cache" for the "Cache-control " of the response hedear, in corresponding jsps. But the webserver configuration is overriding this.
This configuration set in the webserver should be applicable for all the modules except for some urls .
can anybody tell me how to make this selective cache-control configuration in the obj.conf of sun one web server.
or if there is any way to prevent the set up in jsp from being overridden this webserver ?
Also it would be great if anybody can explain, what are the services handled by the web server and the the app-server and how they interact with each other....

It's unfortunate that JSPs running in WebLogic can't override the default Cache-Control directives in Web Server. That's probably a bug in the WebLogic plugin. (It is possible for JSPs running directly on Web Server to override the default Cache-Control directives.)
As with any obj.conf directive, you can configure Cache-Control directives on a path-by-path basis. For example, the following would set Cache-Control: no-cache for /foo/*.jsp and Cache-Control: private for all other URIs:<Object ppath="/foo/*.jsp">
PathCheck fn="set-cache-control" control="no-cache"
</Object>
<Object name="default">
PathCheck fn="set-cache-control" control="private"
</Object>Information on obj.conf syntax, including how to configure separate objects for separate paths, can be found in the Syntax and use of obj.conf chapter of the NSAPI Programmer's Guide at http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6252/npgobjcn.html.
I'm not sure what you mean by "what are the services handled by the web server and the the app-server and how they interact with each other". However, it's worth noting that Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 is fully capable of running JSPs by itself; there's no need for a separate WebLogic server.

Shive...good one..!!
One thing that you can do if you don't wanna have PPR, is to validate date column in fire action event in CO in process form request, and raise an error if you don't find appropriate format or null , as per your requirement.

Session handle with PXI2503

Hello
I have created DLLs with Labwindows 7.0 on windows 2000 operating system. Those DLLs are used by another application developped with Powerbuilder software. I use this application to program PXI materials: MXI3 kit, PXI-1042 chassis, PXI2503, PXI6527 and PXI-GPIB. With my user profile, I can program those materials through the application I have implemented. The other users can't program PXI materials with my application. This application uses niSwitch_init function. When the application encounters this function, it can't establish a session handle. The session value is zero and the returned status code is BFFFA002B. Programming directly the PXI2503 card with NI examples woks with everybody.
I would like to know if there is a link between user profile and programming PXI materials.
Is there any solution to my problem?

ERP2004: ESS JCO session handling in Web Dynpro apps?

Hello,
we run ESS/MSS Web Dynpro scenarios, running on WAS 6.40, SP12 in
Enterprise Portal EP6 SP2 Patch 32. Our go live will be with > 1000 ESS users.
1. When will the sessions in R/3 backend system be terminated by the
Web Dynpro Application?
How is the session handling in FPM (Floor Plan Manager) implemented?
2. Are there any recommendations regarding the JCO connection settings
in Web Dynpro Content Administrator (Maximum Pool Size, Maximum Connections,
Connection Timeout, Maximum Wait Time) to reduce / optimize the load for the
backend system? I found a documentation in SDN but it is not
specific for ESS / MSS based on Web Dynpro.
Background of questions above: The customer is worry about the load on
SAP R/3 backend side: too much current users in the R/3 backend system,
possibly bad performance etc. because the JCO sessions are open a long time.
Are there any experiences with customers running productive ESS / MSS scenarios
based on Web Dynpro?
Thanks & Best regards,
Daniel

Hi,
1. For best practices on JCO settings follow the tutorial below and do it accordingly for your no of users. YOu might have to do some trial and error procedure.

How to kill particular Oracle Session from the multiple Session of User

Hi,
I am working on Web Application using ASP.NET , C# with Oracle. I am excuting queries from multiple connection of same user. I want to kill particular user session. I have tried to Kill session by using ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION 'sid,serial#' it is working fine but how can i identify which session is generated by particular connection so that i can kill that particular session.
Suppose there us user 'abc' there are multple instance of this user and all are active but same USERNAME. So Please tell me how can i identify that session through which i am executing the query.
Thanks,
Nitin

Some ideas for how to pick the right session:
-Look at the time the session was connected (logon_time)
-Look at the time the session last started it's most recent statement (last_call_et)
-Look at the sql that the session is running (join with sql_address and sql_hash_value over to v$sqltext_with_newlines or one of the other views that show you the sql they are running)
That usually gets me most of the way, if it's possible to distinguish them. ("Yeah I just started this query and I want you to kill it." is different than "I started five different queries at about the same time and I'm not sure which one I need killed.")

Creating / Handling multiple sessions

How can I create multiple sessions with Servlets/JSP?
The requirement is this:
An admin-type user logs into my application. There, he can see a list of normal (non-admin) users, and should be able to log into those users accounts. Therefore, it is necessary to start a new session as this user, while the he should still be able to be logged into his admin account (and log into more users accounts, if need be). So, the admin session must remain valid, and for each login into a user account, a new session must be created.
I understand that this is not possible using the standard cookie-based approach, so I turned them off for the respective context in Tomcat and encoded all URLs using <c:url ...>. Still, I don't know how to start a new session, there seems to be no method to do this. When there is an active session, getSession(false) returns it, that's all I get. So how do I create a new session with a new session id?
While trying to figure this out, I also noticed some odd behavior in Tomcat (Version 6, though this might apply to other Tomcat Versions or even other web containers. If no session is yet active (like, on the Login page of the application), or the active session is being invalidated (as after logout), a new session is created every time one of those pages is accessed. This also happens if no session id is given at all in the URL (and, probably, if an expired session id is submitted, I didn't try this one yet).
This is not good, simply speaking. This way, the web container will quickly get swamped with ghost sessions that were, on my part, never created, and never used; still, they hang around until they expire, of course.
Any ideas? :)

Bad approach? Could you elaborate please? :)It is just plain cumbersome and coding is impossible without horrible hacks.Hm, why cumbersome? The only difference between your approach and mine is that I would use two seperate sessions, as if the user had logged in using his username and password, while you would use one session for both.
As for coding, I see no need for hacks. The admin is supposed to be able to create users, enter/change some contact data and do some settings for the users accounts, and log in as that user (without having to ask him for his login credentials) for support cases etc. Where is the need for hacks here? Except maybe if there is no way to create a session from another session...
but it wouldn't allow for an admin to look into more than one user account at once (right?) which is somewhat a requirement.So you want to impersonate more than one user simultaneously? What's the benefit of this? If you want to switch between users, just go back to the admin panel and pick another user.Yes, or rather, support staff will want to do this.
This is a common scenario in the company I work for, where 3 support people serve about 1000 active customers (of another, PHP-based project). Customer calls, a supporter will use the admin account to log in to his account and have the problem explained. If the solving takes longer, he will tell the customer that he will look into it and call back when it's sorted out. Now while he is working on this, the next customer calls, so the supporter will use the admin account again to log in this account, also, to have the problem explained etc. If the second problem is solved quickly, he will then just log out of the second customers user session and simply continue working on the first customers problem which is still active in another browser window.
Now, if the support people can have only one user session open at a time, they will have to close the first customers user session they were working in (probably having to save some work only halfway done) when the second customer calls, log in to that second customers account, help him, log out of the account to go back to the admin panel, log back into the first customer account, resume work there.
Long story short, while the first approach enables them to do small tasks on the side while working on a bigger problem, this is not possible in the second approach.
Still, any idea about the rogue sessions when I wrote about in the last paragraph?I don't understand your doubt. Every request should take place in a session. If it isn't there or if it is invalidated/expired, then the appserver will create one. I don't see how that is a problem.Ok, if this is normal behavior, then no problem. I just got suspicios when sessions kept appearing while I was not creating any myself.

I have an Apple MacBook Pro and when surfing the web my computer will slow to a crawl and I will have a multi-colored spinning wheel visible until my latest request is handled. What is causing this and is there a way to prevent this from occuring

I have a MacBook Pro. When surfing the web it will eventually slow to a crawl. When this occurs, there will be a small multi-colored wheel spinning until my latest command is handled. What is causing this and is there a way that I can modify or prevent this from happening? Is there a setting that will prevent this?

When you next have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Select any messages timestamped from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Bw web report plugin http session hangs at the server side

Hi,
I am having problems when closing the browser of a BW web report. After I closed the browser by going File->close, I ran SM04 and found out the Plugin HTTP session hangs at the server side.
How can we terminate the Plugin HTTP session at the server side when user closes the internet browser?
I did implement a logoff function at my web template, if user clicks on the logoff, the Plugin HTTP session is terminated at server side correctly. But As you know, 50% of time user will close the report by closing the internet browser instead of clicking the logoff. That leaves lots of hanging Plugin HTTP sessions at our server side.
By the way, we actived our BEX service at the SICF.
Thanks for help!
JA

Hi
If you want to avoid a blank page with logoff button, add opener=0
<a href="<SAP_BW_URL CMD='LOG_OFF' ~command='logoff'
>" onClick="javascript:window.close(opener=0);">Log off</a>
If you want to close the session via X, use this code:
create a sapscript function
function closeSession()
logoff()
window.unload=CloseSession()
However, the Plugin HTTP session isn't killed.
Regards
