AS-ABAP (BI) system registration in SLD RZ70 Error

Question

Hi guys, I'm following the SAP note 983156 - BI configuration w. Template Installer and I'm in the step in order to establish communication between my BW IDES and Portal.
""Checking the AS-ABAP (BI) system registration in SLD""
the note says:
"When configuring the Webdynpro Jco destination connectivity the AS-ABAP (BI) system must be configured in the SLD."
Procedure:
Logon to the SLD: http://<host>:<port>/sld. (Your configured SLD (central or local SLD))
Please check in Home -> Technical Systems -> select type ABAP. This
should have configuration of your ABAP (BI) system.
If it is missing, logon to your ABAP (BI) system -> goto transaction RZ70. Fill in the SLD bridge: gateway info -> Activate -> Start data collection."
Well, when I'm in SDL Home > Technical systems, I have nothing there, so I started to enable the SDL Bridge in RZ70 and after running it, it gives me the error:
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : Collection of SLD data finished
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : Data collected successfully
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : RFC data prepared
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : Used RFC destination: IBM_PORTAL_IAN
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : RFC call failed: JCO.Server could not find server function 'SET_SLD_DATA'
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : Existing periodic jobs removed. Number: 1
0: ibm_IAM_00                                : Program scheduled: 20100602 000100
1: ibm_IAM_00                                : Event-controlled job already exists; scheduling not necessary
I looked through other posts, I eliminated SLD_NUC and SLD_UC from JAVA Visual Administrator, but still, the error persists.
Any ideas?

Hi Kuatroka,
In relation to the following error received: "JCO.Server could not find server function SET_SLD_DATA"
1) RZ70 could not find gateway - check gateway defined in RZ70 is up and running in host and SLD home page ->Administration -> Data Supplier Bridge and SLD gateway host is reachable from ABAP system host.
2) Be aware SLD/J2EE does not install a gateway as standard - you must either install a dedicated gateway instance using Presentation CD/DVD or you must use a local ABAP gateway (normally local ABAP stack if SLD runs on J2EE ADDIN) or ensure the definitions are correct for any other ABAP systems gateway you choose to use
3) Check the definitions in SLD -> Administration ->Data Supplier Bridge match the definitions in RZ70 - try also FQDN. Ensure these are the same!
4) If you are operating multiple SLD see SAP note 700127
5) Ensure you have not manually created entries for SLD_UC and SLD_NUC in the JCO RFC provider of the visual administrator. The SLD has its own internal JCO provider so there should be no entries in that of the Engine.
I am not sure of your SP levels, but this may also apply: if you have a gateway service on the defined host, the definitions
match between RZ70 and SLD, the gateway is running then it could be a problem with RZ70 - implement notes 906454 and 926089 and 907729.
I hope this information helps.
All the best,
