Configuring CVS in NWDS

I would like to know someone configured CVS in NWDS is there any document or steps to use CVS reprository through NWDS.
Regards,
RK

Since NWDS is based on quite and old version of Eclipse, you can only use old CVS plugins. It might be hard to find a working CVS server + plugin combination, since the CVS plugins available for the Eclipse version used by NWDS only support older CVS servers.

Unable to import Development Configuration at the NWDS

Hello,
I am trying to import a Development Configuration at the NWDS after successfully created a track.
When I do that I receive this error message:
Client J2E_APPL_D: absoluteLocalRoot
(='C:\workspaceDC\1\') is already used by another client.
1. I am the only one who is using this Development Configuration.
2. There is no such folder 1 under my workspaceDC folder.
Why is this happening and what can I do to solve it?

Thank you very much Pascal.
Problem solved indeed.
For some reason it is possible to give points at the moment but I promise I'll do that once it will be corrected.

Configuration problem in NWDS

Hi all,
I am trying to configure the SAP J2ee Engine in NWDS by entering the Message server port and host frm Windows- preferences-SAP J2ee Engine .
Host: <servername>
Port:<3601>
but it doesnt show up the j2ee engine view below with the instances .
( Note: i went to System Information(http://server:port/index.html) to find the message server host n port no. )
is there a possiblity that port is blocked , if so, is there any proper alternative for this ?
Thnks

Hello
Port of J2EE engine will be in the form 500 ..
If the portal is installed on J2EE instance number 01,
Portal HTTP Port = 50000 + (100 * 1) = 50100
Also you need user id and password to coonect
Please check this..if not ask your basis consultants

How to use CVS in NWDS for MDK

Hi All,
We are working on customizing MAM3.0, we need help on using CVS to manage developments.
We in the team are 3 members and the development is depending on each other.
We are using NWDS 7.XX, can somebody help us in using CVS / DTR to resolve conflicts in developments.
Your help in this regard is well appriceated.
Merry christmas, n'joy holidays.
Thanks & Regards,
Sai. K. K

Hi,
You can use an open source CVS . However, if you have NWDI, it already provides the DTR for version control. The link you provided is about the option to use a third party CVS if you don't want to use NWDI, it is not a requirement.

Configuring ESS in NWDS

Hi,
I have downloaded the business package from the service market place. I have installed NWDS trial version in my local PC. Can anyone please answer my questions.
1. How can i import the ESS project to the NWDS?
2. Is JDI required for doing the import?
3. If JDI is required, from where can i download the JDI?
4. Is there any other way of doing import other than using JDI?
Can any one please explain me.
Thanks,

1. How can i import the ESS project to the NWDS?
You need NWDI (previously know as JDI).
2. Is JDI required for doing the import?
Yes.
3. If JDI is required, from where can i download the JDI?
Please refer following document.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a
4. Is there any other way of doing import other than using JDI?
For any ESS code modification you need JDI. Without JDI its not possible.

NWDS settings to import NWDI configurations

Hello,
I am trying to import the CMS configurations onto my NWDS. I have entered the NWDI url in Windows -> Preferences -> JDI -> Development Configuration Pool. However, when I try to log in from NWDS, it points to an old url that I had been using until recently, and thus the login fails. I have replaced the old url with the new one as mentioned.
The error I get is: Build Server http://<Old Host>:<Old Port>: Invalid Username and/or Password
I don't understand from where it is picking up the old host and port details. Is there any place else I need to change the URLs in the NWDS to import the configurations from my new NWDI server?
Thanks in Advance,
Reena
(When I had imported the NWDI configurations to my NWDS with the old server, the Development Configuration Pool was the only place I had entered the URL. I wonder why it's not working now!! )
Edited by: Reena Prabhakar on May 12, 2008 4:41 PM

Hi,
Follow these steps,
1. Close your NWDS.
2. Navigate to this path in your file system <installation drive>:/Documents and settings/<logged in user>
Now, delete the .dtc and .sdtgui folders from here.
3. Open your NWDS, set the new url for the sld as you specified above.
4. Try importing the configuration.

Cannot deploy app files to j2ee engine in NWDS

Hi,
I`ve got NWDS ver. 2.0.15 and I am trying to deploy some files to app server but I got message
Cannot determine sdm host (is empty). Please configure your engine/sdm correctly !
I am almost 100% it`s because I need to use proxy to connect the server. I set up proxy settings in window->preferences->workbench->proxy but I think this option doesn't affect to j2ee engine connection. Cause for example I can access portal on port 50000 using my browser (with set up proxy), but I cannot deploy PAR file what`s more the settings window->preferences->SAP Enterprise portal are correct and the same which I used to connect portal using web browser.
I was thinking about other way to check the connection and SDM Remote GUI came on my mind. Does anybody know how to set up proxy in this program?

Rich,
I did it and I am absolutley sure that host and message server are correct. I think that the problem is that to connect server the connection should be via proxy. And I think beacuse of it connection desnt work.
Look at my example I can connect portal via web browser with configured proxy, but I cannot deploy PAR file using NWDS with the same port and host as I used in browser.
I have configured proxy in NWDS (window->preferences->workbench->proxy) but I am affraid that this setting doesnt take affect to j2ee engine settings and Enterprise portal deployment settings.
Now I am looking for tool which gives me possibility to connect SDM some other way with proxy. Or maybe there is some soft that allows me to set all outgoing network connections to go via proxy.

C:\CVS\MyCvs\cvs-1.12.1
2) downloaded "wincvs", opened the file at:
C:\CVS\My-Win-Cvs\WinCvs120
and then installed it here:
C:\Program Files\GNU\WinCvs 1.2
3) Created a folders called master for "repository" purpose and in here:
C:\src\master
4) Created a folder called for each of the projects for the purpose as "work" area.

Hi,
we had some issues recently with this, and the trace also mentions proxy issues. Could you please try direct connection in that preferences (in other words do not use proxy settings in NWDS) ?
Is it possible that there is some kind of web-filter application installed that is blocking the request?
I'd suggest to google for this error:
407 (Proxy Authentication Required ( Forefront TMG requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. ))
Perhaps the problem is not even sap related.
Is Microsoft Forefront TMG (Threat Management Gateway after some googleing) perhaps configured in the way that it is not allowing this request ? Perhaps the IT guys of your company could look into this.
Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
12209 Forefront TMG requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied.

Configure BPEL 10.1.2.0.2 with JDeveloper 10.1.2.1

I use JDeveloper version 10.1.2.1. Is there a way to configure BPEL 10.1.2.0.2 with it, as a plug-in? Because otherwise, I must use an JDeveloper version that comes with BPEL and another one for my other applications (configure CVS, take care about patches, etc.). If not, why is not BPEL distributed as plug-in?
kind regards,
Vladimir

If memory serves me right, I think a BPEL addon pack is being created for the latest version of JDeveloper. I guess we just have to be a bit more patient!

Problems with CVS and improvements required

Developing with JDeveloper 9.0.3 preview we have found some bugs and some improvements that would be very useful.
Problems
1)     Overlay icons on versioned files dont show the real state of the file as described in the Using Concurrent Versions System (CVS) With JDeveloper section of the Using Support for Team Based Development help manual (this issue was solved with a patch for the 9.0.2 release but it cant be applied for the 9.0.3 preview).
2)     When CVS finds revision conflicts on the project file (.jpr) or on the descriptors of BC4J objects and packages, it overwrites (properly) the source file with the <<<<<< and >>>>>> comments to denote the conflict, and the warning for the conflict is signaled in the CVS log; but it would be nice (because it is annoying to check everytime the CVS log especially for a critical message like a conflict) having a message box reporting these critical messages.
3)     During the import module function to import the project files into the CVS server, the image files (such as .GIF and .JPG) ought to be automatically added as binary files, or better still, it would be useful a configuration fuction to enumerate the extensions to be added as binary files.
4)     After some types of CVS commands the CVS editors and CVS watchers windows becomes suddenly closed.
Required Improvements
1)     It would be useful a function showing all the files to be added to source control in a list and in a more general case, the versioning status of all the project files, without having to expand all the nodes of the project tree.
2)     Its uncomfortable the current behaviour for the check out/edit on the project file (jpr) that automatically selects all files included within it. It would be useful to explicitly select to operate only on the project file or to include also the files within it; or at least to place the project file at the top of the list.
3)     The Edit Files command for the CVS source control ought to support the cvs edit option -c (to check that working files are unedited) and an option to execute an update command before the edit one, to have the most recent revision of that file.
4)     The opportunity to treat every type of BC4J object as a single CVS entity, taking all the files required by the single BC4J object grouped together and then checked-in, checked-out, etc. in a simple one-click operation.

1) Overlay icons [cut] Has the problem returned in 9.0.3 and if so can you give me details of your cvs client version i.e CVSNT 1.0.11.1.3 etc.. It would be really helpful in tracking this down. The CVS version in use is (from the cvs --version command output): Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 1.11.1.3 (Build 57a) (client/server). The JDeveloper version is 9.0.3.988 preview.This is the client version we test against and recommend. We have seen no problems here and can't reproduce this. Could you help us track this down by supplying the answers to the following questions?
1, What OS and CVS version is the server using?
2, For a file that is showing the incorrect overlay could you check the timestamp in the CVS\entries file and post that and the timestamp on the actual file system file?
3, What timezone are you currently working in and is daylight savings time in operation?
and finally
4, Is the CVS server in the same timezone?
Hopefully this will give us a good start on where the problem is.
[cut]
We have already configured cvswrappers to properly handle binary files, but the cvs import function seems to ignore these settings, while cvs add uses it. If you try to import a project with some gif files using jdev, having configured cvs as described, these files will be corrupted. After this, if you add another gif file using cvs add function (not add binary) the settings will be used and the file are correctly stored.
It seems that to make the import command work properly, file types have to be explicitly specified for each binary file (-kb option) on the cvs command line. To verify this we have tried the same operations using wincvs client. Inspecting the log window, we see that the client explicitly force the file types (they use an internal filtering to recognize binary files instead of file extension):
cvs import -I ! -I CVS -W "*.gif -k 'b'" -m "no message" testmodule avendor areleaseRight, I'll add this information to the bug and make sure it gets evaluated.
4) After some types of CVS commands the CVS editors and CVS watchers windows becomes suddenly closed. Could yet tell me what these operations are so I can log a bug? We dont know if its effectively a bug, but the window becomes closed when automating layout switching occurs (if its enabled in preferences), for example: Im in the ide without any open editors (current layout Editing), I get the editors list, then I open an uiXML file (the layout switch to Web Editing) and the list disappears. Even if the layout switch back to Editing (automatically or manually) the list is not re-shown (its not saved in the layout).This is an issue with JDevs layout in that the SCM windows are not default in any layout and so they are closed when the switch occurs. This is being looked at for a future release.
3) The Edit Files command for the CVS source control ought to support the cvs edit option -c (to check that working files are unedited) and an option to execute an update command before the edit one, to have the most recent revision of that file. I'll add enhancement requests for these I especially like the update before edit suggestion. For team based development the reserved edit functionality (the -c option) would be very useful, especially for working with business components.I'll add your use case to the enhancement, as this is a very good reason to have "-c". Hopefully if we can implement 4) and integrate source control and BC4J better in a future release.
4) The opportunity to treat every type of BC4J object as a single CVS entity, taking all the files required by the single BC4J object grouped together and then checked-in, checked-out, etc. in a simple one-click operation. We would also like to have support for this in source control and it is a feature that is currently under investigation.It would be -very- useful if, while trying to edit a generic component under source control, jdev suggested (in the edit dialog window, for example) which other files are likely to be modified, giving the chance to edit them also (if not already). For example, trying to edit a ViewObject component, it will be probably needed also to edit the .jpx, the project, the business package descriptor, in addition to the component implementation and descriptor.Agreed.
We also have some doubts on the meaning of the dialog that often appears after a checkout or a folder update, asking New checked out files were detected; how would you like them to be dealt with?. Can you explain whats the behavior of each choice?The three choices breakdown as follows
1. Open checked out files in the active project
This adds all files to the project that is active in the IDE, if all files were already in the project no change will appear to occur. If new files have been downloaded they will now appear in the project
2. Create a New project for the checked out files
Generate a completely new fresh project from the checked out files, similar to the default behaviour of checkout module in JDev
3. Do not open a new checked out files.
Perform no action with the files, lets the user add them if they so wish.
Thanks for the replies,
