Configuring the Destination URL for the Adobe Document Services

hi all,
I am going through the documentation for "Configuring the Destination URL for the Adobe Document Services " at :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/02/560f41ca73d349e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
I am not able to understand 7th step
7. Define the user name and password. To find out how to create the user name and password for the Adobe document services, see Creating a User for Basic Authentication in the document Adobe Document Services Configuration Guide. You can find this guide in the SAP Service Marketplace under Quick Link /InstguidesNW04.
In our scenario
We are running NW04s SP11 on 2 machines
1) 32-bit machine with ADS and credentials properly configured on Web AS for Java installation

sap.com tc/wd/webdynpro null (7.0009.20060804145649.0000) 

Why do we have to create a new user for the server which is consuming the web service? We already have an user "ADSUser" defined for the Web AS server which has ADS services deployed.
I have opened this thread to solve the previous unanswered question I posted on SDN Empty area in place of Interactive form. .
One more thing the adobe print forms of ESS [Total Compensation Statement and Salary Statement] are rendering properly, only the ones with Interactive ability or not.
thanks,
Sanketh

Hello Sanketh,
1. To access the NW04s configuration guide,
    - Go to https://service.sap.com/adobe
    - On the left frame (tree), under Adobe > Media Library > Documentation
    - On the right had pane you will find the link to the NW04s Configuration guide
2. The link that you have mentioned below details the steps required to be carried out on the client machine that consumes the Adobe Document Services. In our case that is the j2ee engine on which your Web Dynpro application is running. It could be the same physical machine with two different j2ee instances hosting Web Dynpro and ADS or it could be two different physical machine or a single machine having a single instance of j2ee engine hosting both the Web Dynpro and the ADS.
You do not have to create a separate username and a password on the consuming machine but you need to configure the Web Service client proxy to point to the ADS (maybe hosted on a different machine) with the username and the password created on the ADS server. As you have mentioned, you have already created such an user on the ADS (ADSUser). This user authentication on the client machine (consuming server - Web Dynpro) would be required at the runtime by the j2ee engine to authenticate itself with the ADS.

Krish

Jdev11G XMLMenuModel : Setting the "destination" attribute for the itemNode

Hi,
I am trying to set the "destination" attribute for the itemNode in the metadata.xml.This is the URI to which the user must be taken on clicking that node. But it is unable to pick the URI set for the destination attribute and hence there is no navigation that happens.Using the "action" attribute works fine. But I need to use the "destination" attribute.

Documentation for using Adobe Document Services

Hi,
Is there any documentation available on how to use Adobe Document Services? I have installed Adobe Document Services for Netweaver 2004. But I am not able to use the services as I do not know how to access them (is it like Adobe Document Services exposes a set of APIs/webservices and we have to call them? If yes, is there any documentation on the same?).
Thanks,
Vibha.

Hi,
I think the below mentioned links will give a clear idea about ADS Configuration.
https://websmp104.sap-ag.de/adobe
Check MEDIA LIBRARY - Documentation link in this link.
And also check this link too...

Migrating to Sharepoint 2013 from 2010 - Can you use the same URL for the Web Application without affecting the 2010 environment?

Hi,
I am currently trying to migrate our SharePoint 2010 environment to SharePoint 2013. The first thing I'm doing is creating a 2013 development environment to verify that this migration goes smoothly. I'm also doing this so that we will have a testing environment
after the upgrade to 2013 is complete.
So here is my question: I have a 3 tier farm including; 1 app server, 1 wfe, and 1 sql server. I have made a copy of our SharePoint 2010 database and installed that on our sql server 2012 sever (This new environment is on 3 completely separate servers from
our 2010 environment). I have also installed the prereqs and configured SharePoint 2013 on the App server and wfe servers, as well as configuring the necessary service applications (I have created a completely new 2013 database where I will migrate my 2010
database content when I'm ready).
I am now at the point where I need to create a new web application on the 2013 app server, where I will be migrating the copied 2010 database. (Also note that we have a 2010 development site called https://[email protected])
When I go to create a new web application in our 2013 dev environment, can I use the same url (https://[email protected]) to create this web app, or will this screw up our current 2010 dev environment?
I'm new to SharePoint migrations, so I apologize if this is a stupid question.
Thanks in advance for any insight you can share on this!
Boe Barlage

So, what you are recommending is that before I create a web application in my new 2013 environment, I need go into my hosts file on my 2013 app server and alter it to point to my 2013 wfe.
Then after I do that, then I can create my new web application on my 2013 app server with the same url as my 2010 testing environment
(https://[email protected]).
Then after that I should be able to access my new sharepoint 2013 environment at the same URL (https://[email protected])?
I must be missing something.
In your first reply, you told me to alter the host file on my 2010 app server and point it to my 2010
wfe (I guess I thought it probably already is). You also told me to alter the host file on my 2013 app server and point it to my 2013 wfe.
so I am confused on after I do this, what url would I access my 2010 test environment, and what url would
I access my 2013 test environment?
I am fine with having my test environment as a different URL until I am totally ready to roll everything over and kill the 2010 site. But I want to make sure that when I migrate my database, none of the site links are broken.
I also want to make sure that if I proceed this way, I want to be sure that I will be able to modify the URL to what my 2010 environment is (without a lot of headaches) when I am ready to kill the 2010 site.
Thanks again for your help, it's much appreciated!

I would like to change the destination location for the urlcassifier3.sqlite file, so it saves to the computer instead of the user profile. How?

urlclassifier3.sqlite is huge and eats up my profile space on my user account. Is there anyway to change the location this file saves to?

Unless you are using a non-default Profile location, that file isn't even in your actual Profile folder. It is in a secondary "profile" folder under Local Settings\App Data, instead App Data\Roaming. ''Or something like that, I use WinXP on my Windows partition.'' If you have relocated your Profile folder, all the files from "Local Settings" will end up in the relocated Profile folder.
As far as moving it - sorry, the developers didn't provide a preference that can be modified to be able to move that specific file; there isn't a pref to move anything but the Cache in any version above Firefox 2.0.0.x.
The way I see it you have two options: 
# Turn off the '''''Block reported'' attack sites''' and '''web forgeries''' preferences in the Security tab in options, that service is disabled altogether, and delete that file.
# Or delete that file periodically so that is doesn't get too large, like when it reaches like maybe 35 to 40,000Kb , and let Firefox rebuild that file.
Depending on the security suite or A-V application you are using, you may have a second anti-phishing / web forgery application installed, and don't really need the default service that comes with Firefox.
''I hate that damn file - I have over 40 Profiles which I use to test different add-on configurations and because I have 12 different versions of Firefox installed. I routinely turn those prefs off and delete that file in the Profiles that I rarely use for "surfing".'' I do have those prefs enabled on the 8 Profiles that I use on a semi-regular basis, though. My A-V program is a free version without the bells & whistles that come with the "paid" versions.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I don't know the direct URL for it, however, http://www.apple.com/swupdates/ usually posts the same updates sometimes at the same time, or just a little later than the Software Update themselves. I prefer using the website, as then it is easier to read the details of the update and get a chance to bookmark it for later downloading elsewhere.

Adobe Document Services URL problem

Hi,
I am trying to connect to the adobe document services to test the configuration, but getting the following kind of error:
"Adobe document service can not be started".
can somebody tell me how to resolve this?
Thanks,
Sunita.

hi sunita,
please do as follows;
1. IIOP start up mode for global node
     Go to configtool
     -> cluster-data -> Global dispatcher configuration -> services
          -> iiop
        check if startup mode is 'always'.
     Also for
     -> cluster-data -> Global server configuration -> services -> iiop
2. IIOP start up mode for instance node
     Go to Visual Administrator
     -> server -> services -> Configuration Adapter
         Configurations -> cluster_data -> dispatcher -> cfg -> services -> Property Sheet IIOP-runtime
     If they have the value like as:
         startup mode=manual and custom field is checked
     Solution1:
         Change startup mode to 'always' for instance node
     Solution2:
         Restore original configuration for instance node using config
         tool.
     Repeat same operation for
     -> Configurations -> cluster_data -> server -> IDxxxx
                    -> services -> propertysheedt.iiop-runtime
3. Restart J2EE engine

Adobe document service error: SOAP Runtime Exception

Hello,
I am trying to test an Adobe Form created using the ABAP workbench SFP transaction, and getting the following error.
Adobe document services error: SOAP Runtime Exception: CSoapExceptionTransport : (100101)
These are the steps I am using.
1. Call SFP transaction and select an ADOBE Form.
2. Function key F8 to test
3. Select the Output device and do "Print Preview"
Our configuration is : WAS 6.40 SP11 and corresponding ADS level. We used the standard SAP ADS configuration guide to setup.
Thanks in advance for any reply.
Regards,
PK

Hi PK
it looks like you have a problem with either your Adobe document services or your RFC configuration. In the current ADS Configuration Guide in the SAP Service Marketplace, you find a configuration quick test in chapter 3.4. The results should tell you if this is the issue.
There are 2 tests you can run:
A. Checking the User and Password
This is a small test where you can check that your entries for user, security role, and passwords are correct.
Procedure:
1. Enter the following URL in your web browser:
http://<server>:<port>/AdobeDocumentServices/Config
where <server> is the name of the J2EE engine where the Adobe document services are installed and <port> is the port of the J2EE engine.
Note that the entries in the URL are case-sensitive.
2. The web page of the web service AdobeDocumentServices is displayed. Choose Test.
3. Choose rpdata(test.) .
4. Choose the Send button without entering any parameters.
5. Enter the same user name and password as given in the configuration steps earlier.
6. Choose Submit.
If the configuration is correct, you get the information about the Version number in the response area.
If the configuration settings are not correct, the page does not change and Submit still appears.
B. Checking the ABAP Connection
This is a small test for checking the RFC destination you have created.
Procedure
1. Log on to your SAP system.
2. Call transaction SE38
3. Enter the name of the test report: FP_PDF_TEST_OO.
4. Choose Execute (F8)
If the configuration is correct, you get the Version Information.
If the configuration is not correct, you get a dialog box with fields for user and password. Check your configuration settings and also the entries you made when creating the ABAP connection.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,

Adobe Document Services / Interactive Forms

Gud Mrng Techies,
Can anyone suggest a gud reading on
1. How To Configure Adobe Document Services on J2EE Engine.
2. How To Work With Adobe Interactive Forms in NWDS using Adobe Live Cycle Designer.
Thanks in advance....
Bhushan Reddy.

Hi Bhushan,
Very good morning.!!
The main purpose of ADS,adobe dosument services is to design and create interactive PDF forms. These services are installed as Web services on a J2EE Engine and have the destination URL as default.We need to ensure that we install the Adobe document services on the J2EE Engine on which the Web Dynpro runtime environment is deployed.
If the Adobe document services are not provided on the J2EE Engine on which the Web Dynpro runtime environment is deployed, you must change the destination URL of the Adobe document services using the Visual Administrator.
Check the below links for a good reading of the same
http://www.adobe.com/nl/pdfs/7_SAP.pdf

Adobe Document Services - Default Settings

Hi there
We are providing users with the functionality to print their reports through PDF. This functionality is working almost perfectly (apart from the irritating fact that multi line cell headings are not printed), but what I have been requested to change now are the default settings that are displayed when the download starts.
There is a screen that asks for the theme that should be used, and more importantly, the page layout ... it would be great if we could change those default settings, but I don't know where that is done ... any ideas?
Cheers,
Andrew

Adobe Document Services/CORBA Conflict.

Hello,
We use an application (BackWeb) that connects to the SAP Netweaver Portal using CORBA. The application worked OK until we upgraded to NW2004S. After we upgraded to 2004S, the Adobe Document Services (ADS) was enabled by default. The ADS prevented the CORBA session as it found it to be illegal. Therefore, we had to disable the ADS.
We would like to use ADS in the future. Has anyone come across this problem?
Thanks,
Manoj

A few questions regarding the configuration of Adobe Document Services

For Your Information: the main questions are repeated at the end of this post.
The Adobe Document Services seems to work fine. The test I did on http://<server>:<port>/AdobeDocumentServices/Config gives the error
' "Required stream: "PDFDocument" not found. ' so that's fine.
But when I do this: http://server:50000/webdynpro/dispatcher/local/TutWD_OnlineInteractiveForm/OnlineInteractiveFormApp
The result: the PDF is shown and I can enter text in the textboxes and also use the radioboxes.
But I can't use the dropdownboxes, neither can I use the "submit" and "check" buttons..
Is this normal? Or is it because of the ReaderRights credential?
Or is it necessary to install the ACF?
Here is some info I got from a blog:
"Client Side Requirements
Follow the steps mentioned below. Please make sure the following prerequisites are met before working with Adobe Interactive Forms.
NWDS 7.0 / 6.0
Adobe Live cycle designer 7.1 / 7.0
Adobe Reader 7.0.8 [ Minimum : 7.0.1]
End User Requirements
Adobe Reader 7.0.8 [ Minimum : 7.0.1]
Active Component Framework (ACF) - SPS 9, SPS 10"
Two more questions;
1)This info is in the config guide:
"If you have installed the ADS and the WD runtime environment on different J2EE engines and if the communication between these engines uses the SLD, you need to publish the ADS to the SLD."
Does this mean that I don't need to do this when I haven't used SLD? Or is it necessary to install SLD?
Some more info:
Prerequisites:
A System Landscape Dir must already have been configured.
If you have not yet done so, perform the necessary activities according to the documentation SAP System Landscape Directory, Administrative Activities section, chapters:
Start and stop the SLD Service
Configure the SLD Server
Configure data persistence
Make settings for the SLD bridge
You can find this documentation by calling the following URL in your web
browser: http://<host>:<port>/sld
When I check this URL, I don't see anything concerning an (already configured) SLD.
2) Do I need the license below too to develop in AIF?

Main questions----
I need to create a form with a few fields (of which some fields are mandatory); then I have to use a few BAPI's to check these fields and to save the content in a CRM system.
I've installed Netweaver Sneak Preview, and configured Adobe Document Services (made ADSUser & ADSCaller, set IIOP etc to Autostart, Installed the credentials). The tests seem to work fine, but I haven't developed anything yet.
My questions:
1)Is it necessary to install the ACF?
2)Is it necessary to install Adobe LifeCycle Designer?
3)Also SLD?
4)Also the license described above?

No one?
Some questions are answered by someone else.
-The SLD is okay, it doesn't need to be configured
-The Adobe Lifecycle Designer is automatically installed when installing the Netweaver Studio Sneak Preview SP16
Just two more questions:
1)when I open http://server:port/webdynpro/dispatcher/local/TutWD_OnlineInteractiveForm/OnlineInteractiveFormApp
The PDF is shown but I can't use the buttons or the dropdown boxes.
I tried to install ACF but I have NW04s SP16, and the ACF is only SP11.
So when I install that, it only shows a blue screen with "I am the placeholder control"
When I install ACF SP19 for NW04, the PDF shows again, but I still can't use the buttons or dropdowns. Is this normal?
2) Do I need the license described below?

Adobe Document Services - http Response 500 - How to configure the logging?

We are building an application in Web Dynpro Java that fetches data from an R/3 system via an RFC connection and is then supposed to show said data in a pdf within an iview. For that task we want to use the InteractiveForm UIElement. We bind the data to its pdfSource in the iViewu2019s context. Currently the form only consists of a text field bound to one attribute element of the pdfSource context node.
The ADS webservice is configured according to the manuals found here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fa/0b700d6cfd4e03a8ec2186ba6ff4af/frameset.htm
and tested successfully under the following link
http://<portal_host>:<port>/AdobeDocumentServices/Config?style=document
However, when we execute the application, an error occurs in the webservice generating the pdf, namely Invalid Content-Type:text/html. The error occurs when the iView containing the form is shown for the first time, even before the attributes of the pdfSource context are filled with data (we expect to see an empty form).
As it seems the webservice is expected to return a MIME type of either application/pdf or text/xml (we donu2019t know for sure since the SAP manuals and forums are inconclusive here), but instead we get text/html. This seems to be due to the fact that the webservice exits with an http response 500 Internal Server Error (we used several network monitoring tools to confirm that such a response is sent). Since such http responses are but html files with an empty body, yet not xml or pdf, the aforementioned error does make sense to us, but we do not know what Internal Error has caused it.
The only help that SAP seems to provide for an error u201CInvalid Content-Type:text/htmlu201D in context with ADS points to an expiring password or otherwise poor configuration of the ADSUser, which (most certainly) is not our case here since, and as said above, the configuration was and can be tested successfully.
We then tried to view the logs for this error on the machine where the J2EE engine is running with ADS installed according to this (not very comprehensible) guide:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/de/97/ccfc3f0ac2c642e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
We cannot find anything relevant in the server.log of the Visual Administrator except this message (it is generated exactly when our error occurs u2013 the trace severity is set to ALL for all Adobe application elements according to manual):
Date , Time , Message , Severity , Category , Location , Application , User
12/08/2010 , 13:50:46:511 , application [webdynpro/dispatcher] Processing HTTP request to servlet [dispatcher] finished with error.
The error is: com.sap.tc.webdynpro.clientserver.adobe.pdfdocument.base.core.PDFDocumentRuntimeException: Failed to GENERATEPDF
Exception id: [0800274DA7ED00850000005B00000900000496E5919E28BA] , Error , /System/Server/WebRequests , com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.HttpHandlerImpl , sap.com/tcwddispwda , Guest
There is no error.pdf to be found on the file system and since neither have we known nor are we told by the error message, whether the underlying cause is is a render error or connection error or configuration error or what not, we donu2019t know whether the error.pdf is supposed to be generated at all.
Or could there be any other reason why generation didnu2019t take place?
Furthermore we canu2019t seem to be able to find any logs more verbose or detailed about this issue - at least not within the Visual Administrator or the portalu2019s nwa.
How is it possible to properly debug the webservice for pdf-generation or at least to retrieve a fully detailed log containing all notifications and exception stack traces etc.?
I am assuming that we are making some basic mistakes regarding the logging configuration - but what?
Our goal is to know what causes the 500 Internal Server Error response that causes the Incorrect Content-Type exception.
We are using a NetWeaver 7.01 portal installation with Adobe Document Services 7.01 installed on a Windows Server 2003 platform.
Any help is highly appreciated!

Have you tried restarting the Java PDF object in Visual Administrator? Once you do all of your config, you have to restart the PDF object (sao.com/tcwdpdfobject) for the changes to take place. I am assuming you've run all of the test programs in SAP (FP_TEST_00, FP_TEST_03, etc.). Is there any chance that the ADSUSER is locked somehow?
