Front End Installation Server - Administrator rights on client PC's

We are using a third party repackaging tool to deploy sapgui to our workstations. This has proven to be problematic in the past and are now considering the SAP Front End Installation server approach.
After reveiwing the installation guide we are wondering about how packages are deployed to workstations. Our users do not have administrator priveleges on thier workstations, so is it still possible to deploy packages from the installation server (either where they "pull" it down, or it is pushed down to them).
This factor is one reason we are still using the third party repackaging tool because packages can be deployed under a "system" account (via a cleint agent on each PC) - in lieu of each user having administrator privelges on their workstations.
If the SAP Installation server requires users to have these elevated priveleges it won't be an option for us. Does anyone else have any experience with the Installation server and users who do not have administrator priveleges?
Any feedback, directions, or links to additional resources would be greatly appreciated and happily rewarded with positive feedback and reward points
thanks,
jeff henke

Hi Jeff. Try to download the SAPGUI 710 instguid. Go to http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000614745& in left press on
"SAP GUI for Windows" --> 7.10, download this file. In this Guide you can read about :
Local security handling (LSH) lets users on the network deploy SAP front-end components on
their front ends using NetWeaver SAPSetup without requiring administrative privileges on
each front end. Regards.

New front end editor problem

I'm quite new on this forum, so don't be so angry if I'm asking about something that someone else was asking for, by i didn't found answer on my question.
So...
In my company, administrator made some updates in 4.7, after that updates new front end editor is avalible (this with code colorin, code hinting, code folding etc).
But I have some problem with keyboard mapping scheme. When i try to save my own setting or change keymapping to another one, SAP stop responding (it's not a crash with short dump but simple aplication freezing). I tried to find some solution to this behaviour but I didn't found it yet.
My question is:
1) Did someone else have the same behaviour as I?
2) Where to find SAP notes about front end editor?
Thx in advance for any help

Keymapping settings in file:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\ab4_data\keymap.xml
You should also check the following dir:
c:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SapGui\ab4_data\
During patch installation this dir is overwritten, and during the first use of the new editor, the files from here copied to the <username>\ab4_data dir, where you can change them.
Might be permission problem, I can imagine, that if you have no authorization to change these files, the GUI starts hanging or chrashing.

BEx front end version problem

Hai everybody,
I am trying to edit an existing query. When I open the query designer( from excel sheet) I am getting the following error message is appearing.
The component was edited with a more recent version of the editor. You also have to use the more recent version further. Further processing not possible. Update your fron end"
There is only "ok" and when I clik on ok, the designer closes.
What does this mean? Is it taking about BW version or what is it? I have it edit the query but its not letting me to. Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

Hi Visu,
somebody has developed the Query you are trying to modify with a newer Front End Version. So you need to have the same or higher Release / Patch Level.
To download Patched go through:
http://service.sap.com/swdc -> Download -> Support Packages and Patches -> Entry by Application Group -> SAP Frontend Components -> SAP GUI FOR WINDOWS -> ...
Hope it helps

Front End Replication Problem

Have Lync 2010 enterprise with a front end pool containing 2 physical servers. When logging onto the front end pool control panel I noticed that
any changes made were not being stored.
When running the command
Get-CsManagementStoreReplicationStatus -CentralManagementStoreStatus I can see that front end Server A is the active master & is heartbeating fine. On the list of active replicas the name of front end server B is not in there, whereas
our exchange & archiving & monitoring servers are.
Unless I invoke replication manually nothing is replicated across the front end servers.
When running the command
Get-CsManagementStoreReplicationStatus everything shows as true including server B, yet only at the time & date that I invoked replication.
Any ideas what could be causing this issue all of a sudden?

Check REPLICA service is started on Server B.
Check the folder is empty under the path C:\RtcReplicaRoot\xds-replica on Server B.
Check if you can find any error on Server A that hosts the CMS.

Try logging in your pc as Administrator.
Then log in to SAP and try the Fron-End editor New option.
Hope it works for you. I had the same problem and logging in my pc as Administrator solved the problem.

Front End Upgrade to 7.0

Hi ,
Can some one give quick steps to take care in front end part of BI , before the upgrade and after the upgrade ??
Thanks ,

Heera,
Front End installation is pretty straight forward with respect to BW. Just follow the installation document provided by your system admin. You can check for the compatibilities for BEx and check for any OSS notes regarding new patches.
Hope this helps.

SapAdmin.exe Front End Setup Manager

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but I am using the Front-End Installation server distribute the windows GUI 6.40 to user workstations by a batch file called from the command line.
The batch files calls sapsetup.exe listed to the PID for the particular install.
On the OnEndInstall Script I have the following listed.
If Engine.Shell.FilesExist("%SAPSrcDir%\custom\saplogon.ini") Then
Engine.Shell.CopyFile "%SAPSrcDir%\custom\saplogon.ini", "%WinSysDir%\saplogon.ini"
End If
Engine.Shell.SetRegValue "HKCR\Sapgui.Shortcut.File\EditFlags", "REG_DWORD", "10000"
For some reason it doesn't seem to execute this scrit in the proper mannor and does not make the changes I specify in the above statements within the xml code.
I can cheat and get around this by adding the commands to the batch file, but I would use the server side so users do not freak out.
Any Input on where to go from here would be helpful...
Thanks!

Is there a possibility to set Current User registry keys? Or better said, what I would like to do is to turn on the automatic update from server?
Best regards,
Maarten
PS Is there any good documentation for the OnEndInstall scripts? Like on installing the shortcuts in a different start menu folder, adding services entries to the sevices files, etc.

Lync front end connectivity test fails (SSL certificate / URL problem)

We have a weird problem in our installation where Lync keeps complaining about connectivity issues to external reach proxy on our front end server.
The event log error codes are 41024 and 41026.
Here's the error from the snooper utility:
TL_ERROR(TF_COMPONENT) [0]1A14.0EE4::12/12/2014-10:31:30.901.0000000d (DataMCURunTime,DataProxies.ProcessResponse:1197.idx(601))
(0000000001595A27)Failed poking Proxy error=[The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.], type=[ExternalReachProxy], url=[https://dunords36.du.local:4443/Reach/DataCollaborationRelayWebService.svc]
The problem is that it makes the test with the INTERNAL FQDN (dunords36.du.local) and thus the SSL trust fails as the certificate is for our EXTERNAL FQDN on the front end server! I have verified this by testing the above URL with the external address and
the internal one. With the external one the certificate is OK.
If you're wondering; we do not use a reverse proxy. Instead we just have the firewall change the port and forward the traffic to our front end server. Our lync setup is a NAT'ed setup.
I know about the security risks so this is not what the discussion is about.
I can't find anywhere where i can change the above behaviour and tell lync to make the test on the correct, external FQDN. The settings in the topology builder all seems to be OK. And as you can see it does make the test on port 4443 which in our topology
builder is configured for our external FQDN.

Hi,
Would you please elaborate your Lync Server environment (Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition)?
Please double check if you enter the correct external base URL on Lync Topology.
Please also check if the SAN of FE Server certificate correctly.

Problem with index of numbers in BSP Front end

Hello All,
I am facing the below problem. Request your help.
Scenario: When I am trying to add the projects in the Front end , I am facing the problem with the index of numbering of the projects.
Example: If I am adding 6 projects ( at the max only 4 on each page i-e there are 2 pages ), then the index is wrongly numbered and the arrow (for direction of the pages) are wrongly displayed. The direction of the arrow is pointed to the next page rather pointing to the previous page and the index of numbering of the pages is wrong.
Request you to please suggest if this is any code fault in the table maintainance activity in the backend (BSP).

Hi Irina,
If you mean the number range is skipping 10 numbers in between runs then its because of the buffering in the number range.
To avoid the buffer influencing the number range, pass
'X' to the function module parameter: IGNORE_BUFFER.
This should resolve the problem.
Cheers,
Aditya

Front end problem

<B>hello
</B>
<BR>
i have a simple question .as all of us when make a small application that is accessible over the web has two parts(always).one is for all users of this site and other only for administators.
front end accessible over the web is jsp page(in my application).my question is ,is it more appropriate to design the front end for adminstrators using java components.like by using javax.swing package or it must be the jsp page in which beans are used or applet. i have a confusion in the usablity of these as i want to design interface for admin usind swing components.
which approach is better and why ?plz expalin ur answer also. waiting for reply inorder to design my application. thanX.

I would choose jsp/servlets with login protection for admins only. I would choose that, because I like to program, but like to do things fast. With applets or stand alone java applications, I would have to code the client server communication and still have to code some login protection. Also you are less likely to run into firewall problems when you just use port 80 and http like the users do.

The installation of SAP Front-End components failed with 95 errors.

I tried to install SAP GUI 7.20 on Windows Vista X64. And I got this error message:
The installation of SAP Front-End components failed with 95 errors.
This 7.20 version used to run on this operating system fine. I reinstalled the OS, and now I got this.

Hi,
I suppose you reinstalled the same OS.
Did you install the JSDK (java) afterwards. As you must be aware Java is a pre-requisite for the SAP Frontend.
Also make sure you have set the environment variables after installing java.
Further documentation, the SAP installation manual can be found in the u201CDOCUu201D folder of the installation software.

In the environment definition,
-> External Application JDBC
-> Properties
-> Outbound JDBC Connection
You have the database URL in the "DriverProperties" field
Valid URL would be : jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/caps
!! The doc says that this field is optional !! Seems to be an error in the doc:
Hope this helps
