Connecting with sld
While importing software components from sld in repository i am getting an error message.
cannot connect"emsap008:50104"
can anybody tell me the http port for sld.My instance no is 01
Hi Senthil,
Usually SLD is located at http://<host>:5XX00/sld where XX is the instance number in this case 01... so the http port should be 50100
Hope this help

Integration Engine does not connect with SLD
Hi all,
We have an XI 3.0 system that acts as QUA system in our track. This XI 3.0 system is connected to a central SLD installed on a PI 7.1 system that acts as our DEV system.
Everything seems to be OK in the Java part. We refresh the caches successfully and enter the SLD in DEV system.
We have a problem, though with the SXI_CACHE transaction. It shows the following message:
"Unable to refresh cache contents.Error during last attempt to refresh cache"
And the detail of the error is: "LCR_GET_OWN_BUSINESS_SYSTEM - NO_BUSINESS_SYSTEM"
We have checked in the SLD and the Business system is created.
In transaction SXMB_ADM when checking the Integration Engine connection with SLD we get the following error: "No access to system landscape at present"
In the Runtime Workbench of the system, when checking the Cache Connection, the Integration Engine part shows a warning. In the RWB also the Self Status Check of the Integration Engine gives errors:
"Are roles in SXMS_CONF_ITEMS and SLD consistent?"
We have already followed all the post installation guides, and the cache checks, and SLD checks guides.
Do you know which the soltion could be for our error??
Thanks!Hi,
We have checkes

SLD configuration - JCO connection with SAP Router
Hi,
I installed the new Sneak Preview SP11 Java Edition including SAP Portal. I tried to run an own Web Dynpro Application with RFC-Access on a R/3 System.
Unfortunately I was not able to get the JCO Connection to run. The R/3 System is reached via SAP Router. I am a little bit confused, because with the last Sneak Preview (SP6 or SP7) this application was running without problems. Of course I thought that this can't be. So I uninstalled SP11 and installed the old version (SP7). I configured the JCO-connection, no problems.
Now I know that this is not my mistake (hopefully ).
If I configured a JCO-connection in SP11 and tried to PING, the first PING was ok. After testing the connection with user, the PING failed. The testing with user returns something like "user or password are not accepted".
Any ideas?
Best regards
RenaldIn your SLD configuration, what do you have as your Logon Group under the message server config. Is it "PUBLIC". if so, then the user id needs to belong to that Logon Group in the system.

Problem with SLD and Creation of JCo
Hello everyone!
I have a problem with the SLD and the Creation of JCo on the Portal, in trying to create the JCo always tells me that the name used there in the SLD, being that the facility is new.
Who performs the installation, set in the SLD the ECC 6 PRD, delete it to see if I could create a JCo but still the error again when creating the ECC 6 PRD in the SLD I said that already exists and can not create it.
I found a forum which recommended re-import the cimsap .... .... zip and zip CR_Content which would clean everything, I managed to import the zip cimsap ... but in trying to raise CR_Content gives me the following message "All incremental updates of the selected aggregate import for export SAP_CR line have already been loaded before. You require a newer import to update your current content SAP_CR version 4.11." .
I recommend, do the installation again, reload the cimsap.zip and CR_Content.zip a copy homogeneous.
from already thank you very much

The "SLD" with which I am working up to Portal, the "ECC" installs itself as "ABAP.
Who did the installation and initial configuration, do not leave any documentation about it.
Now I need to create the systems and "JCo" necessary to enable them to implement the "ESS", but errors are presented above.
Some days ago I managed to update the CR_Content, which allowed me to create the "JCo" but at the time of the test, says' com.sap.mw.jco.JCO $ Exception: (103) RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE "name or password incorrect .
I managed to also create the portal systems, "System Administration -> System Configuration -> Content Portal" and to test it fails on "Test Connection with Connector", which as noted is associated with the connectors "JCo".
For the creation of the system, I think I should create something in the Visual Administrator ", but within the documentation that I do not see anything about it.
thanks for your help! -
PI 7.1 - Problem with SLD and Runtine WorkBench
Hi All,
I have installed PI 7.1 on Solaris with Oracle DB.
When i go to http://<hostname>:54600/dir/start/index.jsp and click on System Landscape Directory its opening the following link:
http://54600:54600/sld/index.html (Instead of hostname its taking 54600 where 46 is our instance Number).
Could you please suggest me whether the above error is due to any parameter wrongly set? i have checked all the exchange profile parameters and everything is fine.
If this is the problem with configuration of SLD, Can I re-configure SLD? if so please guide me how to do that.
Even when i login into Runtime Work Bench and clcik on any option like Component Monitoring or Message Monitoring its taking long time stating "Query being Processes", i waited for long time and then the same error unable to reach "http://54600:54600 "
Could you please suggest me how to proceed further?
Thanks,
SubbuHi,
Please check the following configurations:
ABAP stack:
1. SLDCHECK - check the error.
2. SLDAPICUST - check the 'Host name'
Then, in browser;
http://<hostname>:54600/exchangeProfile
click and expand 'connections' -
com.sap.aii.connect.cr.name - fully qualified host name
com.sap.aii.connect.integrationserver.sld.name - is.<instancenumber>.<Hostname>
com.sap.aii.connect.landscape.httpport - 5 <instancenumber> 00
Use fully qualified host name where ever the host name is asked.
Once you edit the exchange profile, not necessary to restart J2ee Engine. Just refresh and check the value are changed.
Hope this will fix the issue.

PI 7.00 java components not connect to SLD
Hi guys,
We have installed PI 7.00 and performed all the post installation
steps. SLD is with Solution Manager on one host and PI is installed on
a different host.
SLDCHECK works fine, rfc connections are ok etc. However, the problem
is that in SLD under technical system "Exchange Infrastructure" there
is only Integration Server available. Moreover, RWB does not work and
also I cannot impost software component versions to IR from SLD.In ID
when I go to Environment --> Cache Notifications, I get the following
message "Unable to determine the name of the central Adapter Engine
from the System Landscape Directory at this time. Notifications to the
central Adapter Engine are therefore listed using the technical name of
the Adapter Engine. This is usually structured as follows: af.<SAP
System ID>.<Name of application server>".
It seems that PI J2EE part does not communicate with SLD.
Any ideas??
Thank you.Thanks to all guys. I will award points.
The problem was caused due to some PI users that were locked on the J2EE part of XI, and therefore they could not connect to the SLD. I unlocked them through VA 's, Security Provider service.

Error in creating JCo connection with destination type'Load-Balanced Con'
Hi,
I am working on webdynpro application(NW 04s), i need to connect with the backend system(ECC 6.0) using model.I configured my SLD and created technical system successfully.
The technical system got created with an error:
CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS: Instance already exists: SAP_BCApplicationServer.CreationClassName="SAP_BCApplicationServer",Name="ID1.Number.01.HostName.ahsides"
But the system got created so I proceeded with Jco connection creation:
I need to create 2 Jco connections for this,
First with Data Type 'Application Data' & Destination Type 'Single-Server connection'. Second with Data Type 'Data Dictionary' & Destination type 'Load-balanced Connection'.
The first Jco with 'Single-Server connection' got created successfully and ping and test is also successfull.
The second Jco connection with 'Load-Balanced Connection' got created successfull but it is throwing error while pinging and testing.
Ping Error : Failed to ping JCo destination 'WD_EMPLOYEE_RFC_METADATA_DEST'.
Test Error : com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (102) JCO_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: JCO.Client not connected in repository call
Please help me in this.This problem was with 'Load-Balanced Connection' only.Hi,
Have you taken a look at the file %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\services?
If you haven't, try and find the line sapms<sid>, where sid is de SID of the system you-re trying to reach.
If the line isn't there write it down like this.
sapms<sid> 36<nr>/tcp
That works for me. -
E Recruitment Standalone system needs to connected with portal
Dear E rec experts
I am having e rec standalone system and a SAP HR system , Presently portal is connected with SAP HR system, I need to connect the portal to E rec server as well . Our Basis team did the SLD and SSO configuration , and portal system object also have been created to point the portal with Stand alone system . still i can not connect to e rec system with the portal.
Can any help with the java connector component name for e rec stand alone system with HR system , if jico is the solution for this issue.Else Please advice me any other solution -
Regards
AbhiHi Abhi,
Jco is for Java components. E-recruiting does not use Java Web Dynpro, but rather BSP and ABAP WD.
You link the systems via RFCs:
Call SM30, table T77S0 and check following parameter:
in RECFA HRRFC the destination to the HR system should be maintained
for this destination you can check if the connection is working by going to transaction SM59 -> ABAP connection -> double-click on the name -> button "connection test" to confirm the connectivity.
Afterward, you have to create the ALE distribution model so that you can transfer data via PFAL tcode and check the received Idocs on T-code BD87.

*Adding new items/removing orphans*
Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
You may need to amend the list of file types these programs look for. My list includes:
.mp3 .mp4 .m4a .m4b .m4p .m4v .mov .wav .aif .mid .ipa .ipg .ite .itlp .m4r .pdf
Note the last 6 types may not be recognised as already being in the library so should either be omitted from the search or you can add (at least for Folder Watch) individual exclusions for files you know are already in your library.

Lost connection with Time Capsule (Office for Mac programmes run down)
My colleague and I work at the office with 2 Macbooks. Both are connected wirelessly to the Time Capsule, which we use as a shared hard disk. We use Office 2008 for Mac. Now Word and Excel run down often after of little things like doing a search or cutting and pasting. I get the spinning ball can only do a forced quit to end the program. This is frustrating and time consuming!
A friend told me to change my UID, cause my colleague and I both have the same UID (501) at our Macbooks. He downloaded Server Admin Tools to change my UID into 1001 with Work Group Manager. But when I arrived at the office this morning I didn't have a connection with the Time Capsule. To be able to work I changed the UID back to 501 again (but now I can't open excel document inless I drag them to the hard disk of my Macbook).
The friend is not a Apple professional so he doens’t know how to help me anymore. Does anyone else have a suggestion?Temporarily, try connecting an Ethenret cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule

"Lost Connection with AIM" repeatedly
Hi there,
I'm using a new Linksys WRT54GL router with the DD-WRT v23 firmware -- which is otherwise fabulous, by the way -- but since going with the router iChat has been pretty unreliable. I can't connect to my sister in England (I'm in Canada): we keep getting "insufficient bandwidth" errors (I'm on a very hi-speed cable internet connection, so I don't think it's me!). Moreover, AIM frequently kicks me off iChat with the message "Lost connection with AIM".
I've configured my router using instructions linked from this forum. I'm forwarding the following ports to my computer:
5060
5190
5220
5222
5678
16384
And while I can connect to other users okay (except my sister, it seems), staying connected it a real issue. Can anyone recommend a fix?
Thanks,
Aaron.
PowerBook G4 15-inch 1.67 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.5) The last PowerBook ever!Hi Aaron,
This last port should be a group of 20 ports (16384-16403)
iChat needs 4 ports from this group to do 1-1 Audio or Video chats.
Many Linksys have UPnP. It is found in the Administration tab. If you have this you could use this. Disable the Port Forwarding if you do.
Also port Forwwarding points to one IP/computer. If this is the case for you and you still have the device doing DHCP there is a cance you computer's IP has changed if it goes to sleep or is shut down when the lease time runs out.
Check this on your computer and the Port Forwarding settings.
