Error while configuring SAP authentication in CMC
Hi,
I am trying to set up SAP authentication in CMC to a SAPBI system to which I am able to connect successfully in Designer and Voyager. I have the SAP Integration KIT also installed.
As a first step I created Entitlement and then filled up the options tab ( Have checked the option Automatically Import Users).
But when I click on Role Import Tab, I get the following error.
com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
Is it because I need to install SAP JCo? Please suggest.
If I need install SAP JCo is it freely available? Which version has to be installed?
Any suggestions will surely help.
Thanks in advance,
SumaSame issue here.
Business Objects Enterprise 3.0 is installed on a dedicated machine. I have followed the documented installation procedure, step by step, but I am still facing two issues:
#1. SAP Authentication does not work. When trying to log into InfoView using SAP Authentication, I get the following error:
Account information not recognized:
CSecSAPR3Binding::XRFCCnxBroker::BorrowConnection() failed. See following log entries for details.
Failed while trying to log on to SAP system.
The following RFC error was returned: [Group, Key, Message]:
[103, "RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE", "Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)"].
The entitlement system has therefore been disabled in memory.
This may be because the SAP system is unavailable or because the credentials are invalid.
The entitlement system has to be re-enabled before it can be used again.
#2. BOE is unable to import the SAP roles (from CMC SAP Authentication configuration). The application throws the following error:
An error has occurred:
com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
I am using JCo v 2.1.8. sapjco.jar was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\common\lib and sapjcorfc.dll was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86. librfc32.dll was installed in a prior step by the SAP Front End, and the file exists in C:\Windows\system32.
Any other ideas?

BijuHello All,
I reinstalled it again based on the link BusinessObjects and SAP - Configure SAP Authentication from Ingo Hilgefort and all are working as expected.
Now I have a different problem, My Company does not intent to go for a portal at this time, but is considering using formatted reports using crystal reports. What are the other options available for the users to access these reports? For instance all the bex users have Bex Analyser installed on each client machine, do we have anything similar for Crystal reports.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

No logical sytem found in the drop down under SAP authentication in CMC
Hi Swapna,
This is quite simple. Click on New and enter the following information:
System e.g TS6
Client e.g. 800
Application Server e.g. yourservername
System number e.g. 00
Username e.g. Crystal
Password e.g Password
and Language e.g. EN
Press Update and and go to the Role Import tab. Import your role and don't forget the set the checkbox Enable SAP Authentication under the Options tab when using sap authentication.Hello,
We are trying to integrate existing BO environment in our company with existing BW installation.
BO Environment - 3.1
BW/ECC Environment - (BW - BI 7.0 SP20, ECC 6.0)
So got the pre-requisites completed and the transports imported into both BW and ECC environments. Upon these steps we went ahead and installed the integration kit for 3.1 system.
There were no error messages, after we completed the installation went into infoview and in the authentication drop down checked to see if I can get "SAP" in there....which it did. So, I am assuming there were no issues till this point which we might have missed out.
Upon this, when I went into SAP authentication in CMC and double clicked on SAP and in the next screen clicked on "NEW" and added in the application server, system number, id and password and updated it...this automatically updated the logical system.
But when I go into the role import, it gives me the following error message....
Exception in JSP: /jsp/auth/sapsec_import_role.jsp:22:19:20: <%21:string context.........lot of other message
The only thing is we have not assigned the CRYSTAL_ENTITLEMENT role to it as we are at this point only trying to see if we can log into webi...
Can you please help me out on this.
Thanks

Getting error in SAP Authentication configuration for BO Edge 3.1 SP3
Hi,
I have installed BusinessObject Edge Series 3.1 SP3 and BusinessObject XI 3.1 SAP SP3 on Windows 2008 server.
I am trying to configure SAP Authentication between BO and BI server. In CMC i have provided all the details under Entitlement System and click on update, After that when i click on Role Import tab I am getting "Name or password is incorrect". However, I checked user name and password is correct by login with same user and password to BI server.
I have downloaded sapjco.jar and sapjcorfc.dll and placed it at required locations and also done the transport in BI system as given with Integration Kit
I checked document "SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP3 Integration for SAP Solutions u2013 Supported Platforms" and found that SAP GUI 720 is not supported with SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP3.
Supported SAP GUI are:
SAP 640 GUI, patch level 25
SAP 710 GUI patch level 6 (1)
But I dont found those SAP GUI's on Service market place.
Please suggest me how to resolve this issue.
Thanks and regards,
Rehan ManzoorHI,
did you check if the SAP credentials entered on the Entitlement System page have the necessary authorizations to read the roles ?
You can see the details in the Installation Guide.

Cannot add BW SAP system in CMC Authentication\Entitlement System
Hi,
I've re-installed Edge XI 3.1 SP3, Explorer/Polestar SP2 and finally SAP Integration Kit SP3 on Windows 2008 & SQL Server 2008 after a consultant came onsite to do this 4 months ago. I wanted the practice and its a pilot installation only.
I cannot seem to add my SAP BW Dev system to the Entitlement system from within the CMC - Authentication - SAP section however. I 've got the .dll's in the right places, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Integration Kit. restarting the Tomcat server, etc to no avail. I've also had a read of Ingo's blog and am sure I've followed all his steps correctly.
Can this only be a case of not following the installation correctly or am I missing something else? Any help appreciated please.
Thanks.Hi,
I've had success in getting the Entitlement System connected.
Basically on top of completely uninstalling everything SAP and BO related, renaming folders to .OLD and rebooting, then installing Edge and SAP GUI....I then followed these steps before installing Integration Kit:
To install InfoView automatically, you must install and configure SAP Java Connector components:
To do this, copy librfc32.dll and librfc32u.dll, to the appropriate folder.
u2022 On 32-bit Windows: %windir%\system32
u2022 On 64-bit Windows: %windir%\sysWOW64
Copy sapjcorfc.dll to <BusinessObjects install directory ..\win32_x86.
Then copy sapjco.jar to the application serveru2019s shared library folder. For example, on a 64-bit Windows system with Tomcat 5.5, copy sapjco.jar to H:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55\shared\lib
N.B. Had to create folder shared\lib in H:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55.
Rebooted.
This is similar to and in addition to Ingo's steps, however he does refer to the Integration Install guide, which is where the above is mostly taken from.
I could then UPDATE the new BW Dev system from the CMC and then see all available roles.
Thanks for your prompt advice and support Ingo. -
Problem in CMC login with SAP authentication type
Hi,
We have installed the SAP Integration kit successfully for BO XI R2 & when I logon to CMC i am able to enable the SAP authentication and import the roles from the SAP BW system as well. But when I try to login into CMC using the 'Authentication type' as SAP it doesn't display the textboxes for entering System ID and Client details. Can you please tell me how to fix this?
Also I see that the CMC & Infoview authentication type drop down list are not the same. The CMC has the authentication types available as 'SAP,LDAP & Enterprise' where as Infoview has 'Enterprise, LDAP & AD'.
Is this an issue with the Plugins? do i need to do some settings on the Tomcat ?
Please help me out in this..
Thanks in advance!
Phani.Thanks for your update Jac...yes thats correct. Also I had to include authPlugExt.properties file in the tomcat/shared/classes, which i did not include previously. The SAP infoview is working fine now.
Just one more question, in CMC login doesn't the SAP authentication require sap system & client id as its inputs? (in XI R2). I noticed that I was able to login with SAP user id's (without mentioning system details) , that have been added when I have imported the SAP roles to BO. -
SAP Authentication doesn't come on CMC and Infoview page
Hello Guru,
I am new to BOE installation. I have installed BOEnterprise 3.1, FP 3.5 & SAP IK 3.1, FP 3.5. I am not getting Authentication as "SAP" on CMC and Infoview.
I don't have PartnerPlatformService in my installation directory as well as the drive where i installed BO Enterprise.
1. C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\warfiles\WebApps
2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps
I am not able to find war files and PartnerPlatformService on the above two paths. Is it the main reason behind the SAP Authentication ? What changes do i have do to to get SAP as Authentication ? If i don't have PartnerPlatformService anywhere then from where do i find it and how to deploy it ?
Regards,
Komik ShahHi Ingo,
Thanks!!! I checked SAP JCO file deployment before and it is available on server.
I also read the document prepared by you for installation of SAP IK. I followed all the steps but still not getting SAP as Authentication.
What i see as difference is "I don't have PartnerPlatformService" in my BO Enterprise installation directory and that is why it is not seen on the C drive where i installed Business Objects. I have other customers where i have installed BO Edge series and i can see SAP as Authentication and there i could also find PartnerPlatformService in Installation Directory as well as C drive.
If i don't have "PartnerPlatformService" in my BO Enterprise directory then how should i get it ?
Thanks again for your help

SAP Authentication problem when loggin into CMC
Hi,
I've recently started getting the following error when using SAP authentication to log-in to Designer or CMC:
Account information not recognized: All of your system's 0 Concurrent Access Licenses are in use at this time or your system's license key has expired. Try again later or contact your administrator to obtain additional licenses. (FWB 00014)
This is a pilot system so had intially entered trial licence keys, but some time back had changed these to the permanent equivalent in CMC. All was working but now get this error.
When it first appeared I noticed that the entry in registry editor did not match permanent licence key so changed this there and also in CMC - Authentication have changed licence type from concurrent to named users per our licence agreement.
This has not resolved the problem and struggling to find any other recommended solutions, any help greatly appreciated.
I'm running BOE XI 3.1 at SP3 with SAP integration kit and crystal 2008.
Thanks in advance
AdThanks Seb,
All a bit odd, initially deleted licence key and replaced with a trial NUL licence, and got the same errors. Then tried with trial CPU which worked.
Also didn't make any changes to the CMC Authentication (still named licences) when inputting the CPU licence key but this seemed to have any effect.
Have you seen this behaviour before? -
Cannot open cmc sap authentication - role and alias update failing
I have two business objects environments. For two of them I am failing to login to a specific part of CMC.
I want to go to Authentication tab, SAP authentication. The page is not opening.
I have on both environments 500.000 + Failed jobs. (settings - view global system metrics).
I have the feeling my CRYSTAL user account's password has expired and the 500k+ failed schedules are due to the scheduled update of roles and aliases which is failing.
Can anybody tell me how to cleanup these 500k events, and hopefully being able to access my sap authentication again (and update the password for crystal user? They cannot be deleted from instance manager.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!Dear Seb. I tried. No result. Let me share some screenshots to desribe my issue.
what did I also try: redeploying BOE webapplication. Without success.
My question is: how do I remove these failed instances from the system? Because I think that is a start of the solution.
.. the admintoos entry (from upgrade management tool) was still increasing... It runs awfully long. -
SAP Authentication not available
Hello together!
on a BOE-System (XI 3.1, SP3, FP 3.5) is the SAP Authentication for the InfoView- and the CMC-logon not available. I think the problem is that they haven't installed the SAPJCO correct or did some other mistakes during the installation and configuration process. Until now I tried the following because to install and configurate the system new is not really a opportunity:
check if in the CMC the SAP Authentication is enable
check in the web.xml if the authentication.visible is set to true
copied the sapjco.jar into the Tomcat55\shared\lib and Tomcat55\common\lib
copied the two *.dll from the SAPJCO to the windows\system32 folder
set the classpath
redeployed the Apps: InfoViewApp, InfoviewAppActions, CmcApp, CmcAppActions, PartnerPlatformServices, SAP, OpenDocument and dswsbobje
run the partnercafinstall.bat
and restart the tomcat and the Server Intelligence Agent
Btw the Integration Kit for SAP works - it's just the problem with the missing authentication method.
Another question depending on that problem (maybe) regards the BW Publisher: There is a role for publishing content, this role have the essential rights and the role is added to the corresponding SAP system folder under the SAP structure in the CMC. But if you want to piblish a Crystal Reports report as a BW-User that is a member of the role but is not imported in the CMC you get the error EAS 30001(An error occurred when synchronizing folder hierarchy for role) which means that the user does not have sufficient rights to publish reports. If I put the role to the administrator group everything works fine except that the reports creates a folder structure SAP\2.0\*SYSTEM\New Object11552\New Object11553\REPORT*. Why are the folder "New Object11552" and "New Object11553" created and what's the problem with the rights?
I appreciate any hints what else I can do - because as I mentioned above a complete new-install is not really a opportunity.
Thanks in advance!Thanks Heiko and Ingo for your responses!
@Heiko
Hi Heiko, I couldn't find the SAP JCO 2.1.9 version to download - so I tried the 2.1.10 version; but still the same problem
@Ingo
Hi Ingo,
>>so the SAP Authentication in the CMC is available and you are able to import the SAP Roles ?
yes, the SAP Authentication in the CMC is available and I'm able to import SAP roles - that works absolutely fine; it's just that users can't select the SAP-Authentication method for the logon.
>>EAS 30001
ok, that was also my idea that it is important that the sap user who want's to publish content is imported in the cmc - but because of the problem that the sap authentication is not available at logon that's currently not possible. So, I think if this problem is solved - the problem with EAS 30001 is also gone.
>>Make sure the role as descriptions in transaction PFCG in all the languages that you use for publishing
you're absolutely correct - that was the problem! Thanks Ingo! Could you explain what are the steps I have to do to translate the description of a role in transaction SE63 after I created the role in the transaction PFCG or do you have a link with the HowTo for me? Hope we'll also find a solution for the missing SAP-Authentication method.
