Calling Web Form from Client-Server Form

Hi. I have an existing Client-Server Form (6i) still in production that needs to call a Web Form and pass it a parameter. Obviously I can't use Call Form or New Form from the client-server version, but can I somehow issue a command line (including a parameter) that opens the Web Form? Any suggestions for accomplishing this?
I can create a command line like this, but have no idea how to pass a parameter to my Web Form. The Web Form named participants which has a Parameter defined named 'p_participant'.
*"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants*
I can also create a command line to open a web form like this to:
*"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://9.35.32.205:7777/forms/html/sas2.htm*
Where the sas2.htm looks like this:
*<html>*
*<body onload="document.menulaunch.submit();">*
Launching File Generation...
If the application does not load in 30 seconds then click the button below:
*<form name=menulaunch action=http://9.35.32.205:7777/forms/frmservlet?config=FileGeneration method=post>*
*<script>*
var wshshell=new ActiveXObject("wscript.shell");
var username=wshshell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%orauser%");
var pw=wshshell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%orapass%");
document.write("<input type=hidden name=userid value="+username+"/"+pw+"@sparc20*>")*
*</script>*
*<input type=submit value=Launch>*
*</form>*
*</body>*
*</html>*
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Simply add to your URL as follows:
http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants&otherparams=p_participant=<SOME VALUE>I assume you plan to use HOST to make this call. I would recommend something like this:
HOST ('cmd /c start iexplore.exe "http://9.35.32.206:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=participants&otherparams=p_participant=<SOME VALUE>"');

    Yes, SAPHTTPA (runs on application server) and/or SAPHTTP (runs on front-end pc), one of which, is required for HTTP communication.  So far, nothing too elaborate as far as SOAP goes, but the logic is simplistic.  Here's some sample code:
      DEST = 'SAPHTTPA'.
      TRANSLATE HOST TO LOWER CASE.
      MYURL = 'wssrvTest/Service.asmx/GetByOrderItem'.
      CONCATENATE HOST MYURL INTO MYURL.
      REQUEST_HEADERS-DATA = 
                  'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.
      APPEND REQUEST_HEADERS.
      CLEAR REQUEST_HEADERS.

  • Is there a way to call web service from 2 servers??

    Hi,
    I need to know if its possible to call web service from 2 different servers without having load balancer??? I mean, if one of the server has heavy work on, then it should call web service from the other server.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards.

    Hi,
    WebLogic Cluster has this feature ( Load Balancing & Failover ). If you will deploy your WebService to a WebLogic Cluster and then If you will put a Proxy in front of it like (Apache)...Then it is Possible.
    <h3><font color=maroon>What All You Need To Do ? ...... as following</font></h3>
    <b><font color=maroon>Step1).</font></b> Create a WebLogic Cluster (minimum two ManagedServers)
    http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/04/28/weblogic-clustering-in-remote-boxes/
    <b><font color=maroon>Step2).</font></b> Install a Proxy like Apache in frot of them like following:
    http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/05/13/apache-proxy-as-static-content-repository/
    Or
    http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/08/01/weblogic-httpclusterservlet-proxyserver/
    <b><font color=maroon>Step3).</font></b> Now Configure a FrontEnd Host for your Cluster by providing the ProxyServer Host name as the FrontEnd of your Cluster. This step is required to Generate the Dynamic WSDL with the Address of the Frontend.(Not of a perticular WebLogic Server)
    http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/06/21/configuring-frontend-host-and-port/
    <b><font color=maroon>Step4).</font></b> Deploy your WebService on the Cluster
    <b><font color=maroon>Step5).</font></b> Now Hit the WebService using the Proxy URL:
    Example:
    http://ProxyHostname:proxyPort/ServiceContextRoot/ServiceURI?WSDL

  • Calling Web Service from CRM using proxy

    Hi all,
    I'm facing a problem trying to call a web service from CRM (WAS 620) via XI 3.0. The response that XI recieves from the web service contains SOAP Envelope, and the mapping fails because of it. I built the proxy manually, because if I load WSDL the proxy generation in CRM generates error that sais that external definition coudn't be used.
    Is there any way to remove SOAP envelope from the response while mapping?
    Is it possible to call web service from WAS 620?
    Thanks!!!!
    Anya.

    Hi Manish,
    SOAP adapter does pass the message to XI (this message contains SOAP envelope although XI expects to get message without it), and during the mapping step i get "Runtime Exception in Message-Mapping transformatio~".
    I suppose it's because i created proxy manually. I did so because when i imported WSDL, and tried to generate proxy in CRM, i got an error message that said that proxy couldn't be generated because external definitions are only allowed in XI 3. But my XI version is 3.0! And when I generate the same proxy in my R/3 system that is installed on WAS 640, it works.
    What can I do?
    Cheers,
    Anya.

  • Calling web Service from the Custom Adapter.Is it Possible?

    Regards,

    Hi Rajesh..
    Just looking the problem in another angle.. if there is no constraint that you have to use XI specific API to call the web service, why dont you use usual Java API used for calling a web service inside you custom adapter (I have Microsoft background.. donno exactly how it is done in Java,, but in .NET kind of a language it is possible). SInce your adapter is in Java itself and is capable of calling web service.. collect or lookup the data whatever you want and validate...
    Just a thought..

    output.setValue("This is a response from Example5.java","RESPTEXT");
    }//if
    Here REQUTEXT, ECHOTEXT are import parameter and RESPTEXT is the Export parameter of Function module ZTEST_EJB in SAP.

  • Can't call a VI from remote server

    I have a VI running on a labview development machine(Labview 2010), the main function is handling excel report using report generator. I follow the link http://www.ni.com/white-paper/14469/en to set up labview machine and teststand machine respectly. But when I tried to call the VI from remote server, it is still not able to load the VI front panel and show the connectors. See the  attachment. It looks like it still trying to load VI from local drive because it can't find the builded-in subvis for report generator function.
    What should I do to make it work? Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.
    Attachments:
    TestStand error.png ‏107 KB

    For those interested in the solution, the problem turned out to be two things.
    The first is if you want to be able to load a prototype of the VI in TestStand, you will need to either share the VI or create a dummy VI. If the shared VI uses subVIs you do not have access to, then you are better of creating a dummy VI that has matching connector panes.
    The second problem had to do with how the remote VI path was specified. If you have shared the VI, then you will enter in the shared folder path as your remote VI path. If you have not shared it, then you will need to enter in the VI path as it is on the remote machine.
