Changing Enterprise Portal Connection

Hi,
My EP 7.0 is connected to ECC 7.0 through one Dialog instance.(ECC>ECCAPP>Enterprise Portal->Users). I need to shift my EP 7.0 connection to new Dialog instance for the same ECC. The new Dialog instance has system no. 01 and the old Dialog instance has system no. 00. Now when i check webgui service (SICF) in new Dialog instance then it points to port 8001 and is not able to connect.
http://henfcclap.in.cclap.com:8001/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=900
What changes do i need to make so that webgui can connect to ECC at port 8001
Thanks
Vishal

Hi Vishal,
You need to change the WAS path of your system object to the new WAS path.

BI content and SAP Enterprise portal connection

Hello All,
i m new to SAP enterprise portal , can anyone explain me the connection of BI content and Enterprise Portal.Please explain me the flow of publishing the Bi reports to EP.
Thnks in advc.

HI Sonal,
For publishing BI reports in portal you need to Integrate BI into Portal.
Please refer to SAP Notes:
916950
937697
They are very helpful.
Procedure for publishing after integrating BI with portal:
For this you need to create Roles-Worksets-Pages---Ivews.
The name of the report which you want to be displayed in TLN you need to make a Role for that and the tab under that name you need to create worksets for that and the content of the report you need to create an ivew for that in this way your report will be displayed in portal also you need to righht click on the workset and <add workset to Role>and similarly for ivew also keeping entry point "YES" for a role is mandatory with the main report name in TLN and and the sub tabs under below it and the content indetailed navigation.
For publishing simply create a Role --workset and an ivew .
During creation of an ivew the wizard will ask you for a Query string that Query will be given to you by your BI people you just neeed to copy that query after ? mark and paste it in and then save it hence your report is published in portal.
This is basically the proceddure for publishing BI reports in portal. You can ask any doubts if you hae in this.

Open Service Connection to Enterprise Portal system from Solution Manager

Hi All,
We are getting below error, when we tried to Enable/Open Service Connection ( DSWP -> Solution Landscape ->Service Connection) to Enterprise Portal system.
Here we selected the row Connection -> R/3 support and Connection tab -> open/change connection and clicked on SUBMIT. The we got below short dump.
Runtime Errors         UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
Exception              CX_WD_CONTEXT
Short text
    An exception occurred that was not caught.
What happened?
    The exception 'CX_WD_CONTEXT' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere along the call hierarchy.
    Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
     'CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CP' has to be
    terminated.
What can you do?
    Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
    To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
    administrator.
    Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
    at and manage termination messages, and you can also
    keep them for a long time.
Error analysis:
    An exception occurred which is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_WD_CONTEXT', was not caught and
    therefore caused a runtime error.
    The reason for the exception is:
    The node does not contain any elements. COMPONENTCONTROLLER.1.SYSTEMS.1.CLIENTS
How to correct the error:
    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following keywords:
    "UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" "CX_WD_CONTEXT"
    "CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CP" or "CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CM00R"
    "_RAISE_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND"
SMSY configuration ( logical component assignmnet) is alredy done. Is it required to do any other settings. SMD ( Solution Manager Diagnostics ) settings are not done. Is this required?
We are able to enable/open Service Connection open to ABAP system . Only for Java system we are getting error.
Please help me on this.
Thanks..

Configure SSO Connection from SAP Enterprise Portal to BOE Server

Hi Guys,
We recently installed a BOE Server and want to connect it to our SAP Enterprise Portal. What we need is just to display the Crystal Reports via Enterprise Portal. We have set up the following:
SAP EP with AD Authentication
SAP EP configured with SNC to SAP BI7 system
SAP BOE XI 3.1 - SAP Integration Kit
BOE Server configured with SAP Authentication via SAP BI7 System
We've also set up BOE IK iviews and URL iviews pointing to existing reports in BOE. However, when we access it from EP, it prompts for a username and login to BOE. Is there a way to configure these so that there is no prompt for login to BOE server and SSO is used? Is it also possible to have a service account (e.g. domain/crystal) that will run the reports in BOE everytime a user accesses a report from SAP EP?
Let me know if this is at all possible

Hi,
You should configure InfoView for SSO first, which required infoview.xml file modification, using windows AD default authentication. If you want to utilize the OpenDocument URL for iView then you also need to configure OpenDocument.xml file for SSO also. The SAP portal must have trust relation with the SAP BW server so the Windows AD token can be authenticate with SAP BW server.
If you want crystal user to run all the report then you will lose data security. It can be done by hard coding user name and password in the report properties and database logon but the SSO capability can be accomplished only by windows AD, SAP or LDAP.
For more details check BOXI Admin guide and SAP Integration Guide.
Thanks,
Muhammad

How to connect LDAP to Enterprise Portal

Hi Guru,
            I need complete steps to connect LDAP into enterprise portal as LDAP is microsoft AD existing one.
        I am confuse about the user mapping and authenticatation, compareing and Single sign one. Does we are calling Log on ticket to the first screen of enterprise portal where we enter user ID and password or ?.
             One situation is that one SAP Enterprise portal acts as comparing user id against AD(LDAP) and issue logon ticket. Other system who is accepting the logon ticket is also SAP Netweaver and has its own portal. It has it own login module.
          My first question is " How to establish connection to AD in to on SAP Enterprise Portal
Second is " How to establish connection to that SAP enterprise portal to SAP Netweaver own portal".
Third is " If we are trying to access to SAP Netweaver application through SAP Enterprise portal , how we can able to access, do we need to accesss through ivew of SAP Enterprise portal only or can we access the SAP Netweaver application as soon as we enter userid/passwd on first screen of Enterprise portal directly to SAP Netweaver application, without user the ivew of Enterprise portal
        If you guys understood this situation let me as soon as possible, cuz my boss is on my head. of send me your contack info to my email: [email protected]

Connect of 2 SAP BW systems to one SAP Enterprise Portal

Hi!
I have 2 SAP BW systems that should be integrated into SAP Enterprise Portal.
I currently have already one SAP system entry "SAP_BW" within SAP EP.
Questions
Is it possible to define second entry for second SAP BW system in order to use 2 SAP BW systems with one SAP EP in parallel?
Where can I find appropriate documentation?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
We have a pilot portal with BW DEV, QAS and PRD connected to it. So it is possible.
It may be more appropriate to post this in the portal forum to get expert advice.

Changing the text "SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0" in the browser window title

Hi,
I want to change the standard browser window title from "SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0" to my clients company name.
Has anyone done this before?
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Padmamr

Hi,
To change the name of the browser:
System Administration > System Configuration > Service Configuration > Portal Runtime > Central Configuration.
Scroll down to: portal.html.head.title
and change to required name of your company.
Also, if you goto System Administration > System Configuration > UM Configuration > Direct Editing.
Here you will find a host of UME controls for logging on and logging off the Portal. You can change images etc... from here.
Remember to restart the Portal and components for changes to take affect.
Cheers

Connect 2 BW servers to one Enterprise portal

Hello Experts - Our client wants to have 1 Enterprise portal (with 2 SID's) and they want to hook-up 2 BW environments related 2 different business units. Is this setting possible? In one of the BI Admin cockpit documentation it was mentioned that we can have 2 BW servers can be monitored from one portal. I just wanted make sure this is possible in general. Appreciate your inputs.
Rgds,
Venu.

Hi Venu,
2 BW systems cannot be integrated into 1 single portal. And the reason is as follows. When you integrate a BW system in the portal, the portal recognies this BW system with the system alias SAP_BW. Since, system aliases are unique and always assigned to only one system at a time in the portal, this means that a 2nd BW system can no longer have the same alias SAP_BW. Thus, you will not be able to use the 2nd BW system simply because the portal always recognizes the first BW system which is having the alias SAP_BW.
Now, you have only 2 options:
1. Implement 2 portals, thus having one portal for each BW system.
2. Go as per point 1, and install a third portal in a federated manner so that the user always uses this third portal and the job of the first two portals is to supply data to the third portal. So this portal can show both the BW systems through application integration with the 2 portals.
However, my suggestion would be to have 2 portals only.
Best Regards,
Shitij

Upgradng the enterprise portal from non HA to HA

Dear Experts,
We have Enterprise portal 7.01 on windows 2003 with db2 9.1. and 1 dialog instance. presently it is not in HA. We want to change this to HA using MSCS.
Can any body share some knowledge on this. How to change the existing system.
thanks alot

Hi,
I must want to correct this question as
" Migrating the enterprise portal from non HA to HA".
The only option i can see is reinstallation or i mean to say system copy to new HA system.
Yoy have to plan your connectivity issues in case you are going to change hostname,IP etc.
Steps:
1) Install Fresh HA EP system
2) Take export from source EP system and DB backup
3) Perform system copy steps on new system
4) In case host name is changed , inform the respective interfac eowners.
Hope this will help you to plan better.

Com.sap.portal.connectivity.destinations.PortalDestinationsServiceException

Hi
I am getting this error for some users in the portal.
com.sap.portal.connectivity.destinations.PortalDestinationsServiceException:User is missing credentials for connecting to alias SAP_R3_humanResources.
This is only happenning for some of the users at the moment and I cannot figure out what is causing it.
We have:
EP7 for Online Expenses
ECC6
I have re-registered the WebFlowConnector just to see if thats the problem.
I have checked the users portal roles and his backend roles and all are OK
I have also checked the Web Dynpro connector for SAP_R3_HumanResources.
Can anybody help me out on this please.
Many Thanks
Steve

Got this from SAP
1st reply
The UWL_service was introduced in NW 700. So, 1133821 will not be relavant for NW 6.40. However, in 640 system we use Basis plugins.
So, to check that please provide me the complete backend system version. The UWL uses functions from the Basis plug in instead of the Enterprise Portal plug in (WP-PI 6.0) for back end systems using Release 640. Support Package 12 makes the necessary functions available in the Basis. You can make the necessary changes in the Basis plug in (PI_BASIS) using notes or Support Packages.
Could you please check which release are you on? Remember after you applies this (SP12), you will need to reregister the UWL system in the system admin on the portal. *This is not only for substitution, but for other functionality as well* We recommend this for 640 systems in general that the PI_BASIS is maintained at the highest level.
This warning message will occur for users that do not have access to the systems that are configured in the UWL UI. For example, if we have 1. BW system 2. SRM system, and you 'steve', are able and have access to the BW system, but do not have a Userid in SRM backend, you will receive this msg. This is normal behaviour for the Universal worklist. So your option there would be to create a dummy id for you on the backend system so that your id can connect but that you don't have auth to.
2nd reply
You seems to be on lower version for Basis Plug-ins. The basis plug in should be at version 12 or higher and is at version 9. You will need to ensure that the users exist in both systems to get rid of the warning messages. Details for the Basis Plug-ins can be found on Note:883558.
3rd reply
If I am right then you are talking about the solution provided to get rid of the warning message.
So, in this regard as Steve already mentoned The Portal is an EP7 portal running on NW 7.0 SP20. It has to connect to {2 different R3 backends}.
1. ECC 6 running on NW 7.0 and UWL is configured with a SAP_ECC_TRAVEL WebFlow Connector (this works perfectly)
2. ECC 5 running on NW 6.40 and UWL is configured with a SAP_R3_HumanResources WebFlowConnector (please see attachment for error)
So, In reply to this I mentioned that to get rid of the warning message you have create users in both the systems. May be you do not grant authorization as per your requirement.
because these warning message are been displayed because the UWL UI havebeen configured to pull tasks from 2 backends. and User logging in mighthave access to only one backend system so, that's the reason for other R3 system they get the warning message.
Or if there is a concern with basis Plug-ins then it will be adviced to refer to the Notes, as those are system requirement.

Reg: calling default desktop page of enterprise portal from webdynpro java

hi Experts
Here is an scenario where i need to call enterprise portal desktop from webdynpro java application.
Actually i have designed a custom Home page in WDJAVA and this page i have assigned as default frame work page in enterprise portal ,so once we logon through the portal URL wewill be getting this custom home page as default page and when i click on next button it should connect to the predefined SAP given default frame work page.
The thing is i am able to see the custom page and the button but when i click on the button it is opening the same custom home page only not able to log on to portal default frame work page.
My question is how can we connect to the predefined page from the custom home page.
please share your regarding this scenario...
regards & Thanks
Deepika
Edited by: deepika_indian on Mar 3, 2010 6:05 AM

hi Experts
you didnt get my point i vl give in brief
1) that at first we are going to enter the portal URL.
2)we are going give userid and password and click logon button.
3)so once we click on that button it should open custom page what we have designed in by using web dynpro java.with in this application we will have next button which should connect to the sap given predefined default desktop page.
i hope you have got my point.
and more over where can we get the logon action coding in which par file,if so can you give brief information related to it.
i changed the themes master rule collection there i have assigned this custom home page ,but when i click on next button it is opening the same custom it is not connecting to the default desktop.i think this is not the write approach.
please share your knowledge and document also related to it.
Thanking you
Deepika.
