Connection webserver with non webbased databeases

Hello,
I am a student and I am busy with my final paper. It is about webshops for existing companies who wants to start a webshop next to their ordinary business.
Many face as a problem to connect their database or ERP system to the webserver. I notice on this SAP site several forums concerning eCommerce.
I have a few questions concerning this.
-     Is the eCommerce from SAP completely web based, or is/can it connect with non-webbased databases?
-     If so, should that the non-webbases database be a SAP applications or any kind of database?
-     How is the connection been made with the webserver an database. Is a specific software, like XML, being used as interface between the two systems?
-     If the eCommerce from SAP cannot connect with a non-webbases database. What solution would be recommended for Companies to establisch such a connection?
Is there also any documentation available that shows how this works?
With kind regards,
Tjerk Heikens

- Is the eCommerce from SAP completely web based, or is/can it connect with non-web based databases?
SAP E-Commerce application is web based, however, there is no actual database in the web server for this application other than for storing simple application configuration. All the business data comes from an existing SAP backend. The backend could be a SAP-CRM system or a SAP-ERP system.
- If so, should that the non-webbases database be a SAP applications or any kind of database?
The non-web based database or what I call as the backend can either be SAP-CRM or SAP-ERP only.
- How is the connection been made with the webserver an database. Is a specific software, like XML, being used as interface between the two systems?
The web application in question is Java based. To connect to the backend databases, SAP uses a Java Connector also knows as JCo. JCo comes with API to connect to SAP systems and execute function modules and exchange data by executing function modules.
- If the eCommerce from SAP cannot connect with a non-web based database. What solution would be recommended for Companies to establish such a connection?
Some Java based connectors or web services. Though it is theoretically possible to design a 3rd party Backend Layer and connect to non-SAP databases, the work involved may be more complex than developing a new custom Java based eCommerce web application with those 3rd party databases.
Is there also any documentation available that shows how this works?
You can always refer to the [CRM E-Commerce Extension Guide|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000647973&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000469462006E] which explains in detail the architecture and design concepts.

Connectivity Webserver with Appserver

What is the exact difference between application server and web server. How EJB interacting between them. Please Explain detaily.

Here is a brief detail:
Webserver will resolved the domain name to the IP. When the user enters either for your site your webserver will run. You can have a site with just a webserver and no application server. Webservers run html files etc and will also take care of SSL for you.
AppServer is used to run EJB, JSPs and javabeans. There is a plugin that goes between the webserver and the appserver. Not all AppServers support EJBs.
Good Luck,

CR2008 connectivity issue with BOE Universes(sap and non sap universes)

Hi Experts !!
Recently we tried to build/connect to a Universe in Crystal Reports2008 via 'Make a new connection tab'.
The universes are of SAP BW or non SAP Lying in BOE Servers and we are trying to build reports on them by conncting/utilizing the universes as a database for Crystal Reporting.
Our issue is most of the time we are not able to connect to the Universes and the connectivity blows out by some 'communication Error' thing initially.
While at some other points in time, the connectivity takes us to the Universe and we are able to select few characteristics and key figures from the Universe but the moment we go futher and try to run by pressing 'OK' button it blows out and say' LOGON FAILED'.
Apparantly, it is an connectivity issue with BOE server and from the different blogs it looks like it is a known issue for long.
The proposed issue resolution were like either CR2008 should be SP2 with BOE SP3 or there should be some additional .dll files defined in the paths in case of MSSQL database. None of this applies to us as we are on CR2008 with SP3 and going back to SP2 is probably not a viable option for us, and we are using Oracle as underlying database in this specific case.( i would like to tell you here that we are able to connect to Oracle Database directly though).
We have raised a message with SAP and was just wondering if we do have some solution/workaround already available to this known issue in place please?
Thanks&Regards.

Hi Amit,
Moved to Universe Forum.
If you have a case logged then no point posting here also, this is a public site and not a case management tool.
Once you do get the solution from your case please post it here also to help others if they have the same problem.
Thank you

As long as the apps and ibooks are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

What devices?
The iPad can only pair with earphones, speakers and keyboards.
It cannot directly pair with other phones or computers for file transfer or other operations.
Most Bluetooth devices will have a user guide to connect them to other devices. follow that to start the process.
From the iPad side, its just a matter of going inot Settings->BlueTooth turning it on, and searching for the device to pair.

WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

Hi,
WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

The answer to your question is - neither!
Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

Terminal: Stored Remote Connection with non-standard Port?

Hi,
I am new to MacOS and I am amazed by the integrated terminal. However, I sometimes need to connect to servers which use a non-standard SSH port, for example, 2020. I know that I can manually connect, but for convinience, I'd like to have a saved remote connection including the non-standard port. Is this possible somehow?
Thanks,
Felicitus

I did some experimentation, using Terminal.
Terminal -> New Remote Connection -> Service -> [+]
now enter your own new service which includes
/usr/bin/ssh -p 50022
I found I had to enter a bonjour entry to get it to accept my new service, but once I did, I was able to use that new service with the custom -p 50022 port value.
Your mileage may vary. I still prefer iTerm.
Oh yea. In the future, Terminal and Unix oriented questions are better asked in the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix Forum

Configuring JCo3 Connection Pool with single sign on on non SAP Java server

Hi Everyone,
i have configured a connection pool on JBoss as per JCo3 Documentation and is working great.
Now I need help to configure this connection pool with single sign on so that RFc on SAP ECC systems are executed using end users credential rather than using single user name password used to configure JCo connection pool.
On SAP Java stack I am sure its possible within Java WebDynpro and i assume using JCA resource adapter. But what if we don't want to use SAP Java App server.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Divyakumar Jain

"An error occurred accessing your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation site files" connecting site with SharePoint Designer

I have a SharePoint 2013 environment with 1 AD Server, 1 DB Server and 1 APP Server, with 13 Web Applications running under the SharePoint.
Recently I rebuilted the application because of some infrasctrucutre problems, and I was able to solve all of them, except one. I can't connect to any of those 13 Web Apps with SharePoint Designer. When I try to connect, it always ask credentials, then it
seems like loading the site, then the error appears:
"An error occurred accessing your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation site files. Authors - if you are authoring against
a Web server, please contact the Webmaster for this server's Web site. WebMasters - please see the server's application event log for more details."
I've spent hours troubleshooting it, but none of the information I found was valid. I've already tried to clean the cache, but didn't work. I found plenty of related data of this
error with FrontPage and old versions of SharePoint, but nothing helped. All the Web Apps are SPD-Enabled at Site Collection Administration. I've tried connecting from many different PC's. The 15/LOGS folder doesn't get any data from this error, neither the
Event Viewer.
I really don't know what else to do. Please Help!

I found the answer of my issue was in a .NET Agent installed by NewRelic on the server. I found a connection trouble with Fiddler, then I end up figuring this out:
This can be the result of Real User Monitoring so the first step in troubleshooting would be to disable it and see how it affects the application. The .Net Agent injects snippets of javascript into the header of pages sent to the users browser to measure the
page load time on the user's end.
You can disable RUM by editing newrelic.config and changing this line:
<browserMonitoring autoInstrument="true"/>
to this:
<browserMonitoring autoInstrument="false"/>

Why does it say:

Thanks,

Add "Targets" attribute to the connection pool. You may
get an idea how it looks like by searching config.xml
for "targets". If target servers are not set, the pool won't be
deployed and can not be used to a create datasource.

Converting from a Business View connection to a non-Business View Error

I have CR 2008 report with SP1. The report has a sub report. The main report is based off of a BV but the sub report is using an ODBC connection. When I try to update the ODBC connection I recieve an error message telling me that:
Quote:
"Converting from a Business View connection to a non-Business View connection is not supported."
I am do not want to update the BusinessView just the ODBC connection for the subreport.

Hi Michael,
When you try to update both the Business views and ODBC connection you will be prompted for those errors.
You need to break the link in the report and update the connections individually.
Thanks,
Naveen.

Converting from a Business View connection to a non-Business View connectio

I have a report on our Crystal Reports Server that I need to move to a machine with Crystal Reports XI installed and no connection to the Business Objects Server.
When I create an ODBC connection pointing to the same table and then try to use Set Datasource Location to Update the Data Source I get an errormessage:
Converting from a Business View connection to a non-Business View connection is not supported.
What can I do? It is a complex report that I don't want to take the time and energy to rewrite.
Thank You for any answers.

Hello Brundibar,
I recommend to post this query to the [Universe Designer and Business Views Designer|Semantic Layer; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to the universes and business views.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Universe Designer and Business Views Designer queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

IPOD CONNECTIVITY PROBLEM WITH WINDOWS XP VIA USB 2.0

Enough is enough.
I have an ipod touch and I am having difficulty connecting it to my pc via usb 2.0.
I have searched the entire web and came across many cases similar or the same as mine. It's time for apple to face the fact that there is something wrong with either the apple mobile service or the apple usb drivers or the itunes software that causes connectivity problems with win xp.
For the record my case is this:
I got my itouch 3 days ago. I installed itunes 8.0. Then I plugged in my ipod to a usb extension cable port connected to a usb at the back of my desktop computer. At first I got the "this usb device can perform faster if you plug it to a usb 2.0 port etc." message. So I did. I removed the extension cable and connected it directly to one of the usb ports at the back. The first time it synchronized, it seemed fine. So I decided before I do anything with it, to update it to the 2.1 version. I made my account and bought (very bad policy there apple, it should be free or at least cheeper than 8 euro) the 2.1 update. I clicked to update the i-touch. While it was updating it crashed during the restore process (because it was disconnected but I didn't know that at the time). I unplugged it, resetted and plugged it back and managed to continue the restoring process until it was updated. After figuring out itunes I chose the "manage files manually option", kept everything unchecked in the sync options except the applications. I noticed there were random disconnections here and there but I didn't pay much attention because they weren't very frequent.
The next day I plug in the touch again and suddenly I hear that annoying "connecting-disconnecting" sound from windows while my touch kept disappearing and reappearing in itunes. Suddenly my playlists disappeared from the touch. Nothing was in the touch any more. How could that happen since i had chosen to manage my files manually instead of synchronizing? So I unplugged the touch again, restarted the touch, restarted the pc, stopped and restarted the apple mobile service, unistalled and reinstalled itunes, searched microsoft support and read many usb troubleshooting documents in the web. Nothing happened. The touch randomly keeps disconnecting from the usb. I eventually managed to put my stuff back in and keep them there.
Here's what I know:
1) There is nothing wrong with my usb ports. I don't use usb hubs, they are usb 2.0, the voltage (500mA) is correct in the device manager. Everything else works fine there.
2) The ipod touch does not support disk mode so you can't see it under "my computer" and this is not a problem.
3)There is nothing wrong with the ipod, it works perfectly.
4) This is not a usb cable physical problem.
5) The five R's are irrelevant with this situation.
Uninstalling and reinstalling itunes doesn't solve the problem, neither does hard resetting the ipod.
6) Older PC configurations seem to be more affected by this but it doesn't have to do with unsupported specific chipsets.
Here's what needs investigating:
1) There may be a problem with the apple mobile service running on win XP.
2) There may be a problem with the apple usb driver and win XP or older motherboards.
3) There may be a 2.1 firmware issue with usb 2.0 connectivity.
Workaround so you don't go nuts:
Use USB 1.1 instead of 2.0. It is A LOT slower but it keeps the connection stable and you can work with the ipod. Just start copying and go do something else for the next hour. So far it works for me.
This is a serious issue that needs immediate attention. I've stumbled across forum discussions dating to 2005 with this problem (with older ipods of course).

I think this needs to be put down to the eternal PC/Mac argument. Apple dont want to fix this as they want everyone to buy a Mac. Its a business, understandable, but in turning away PC buyers they alienate a huge percentage of the market.
Now, I had my first iTouch stolen. It synced, for the most part, very well, just occasionally it removed settings and music, but ticking boxes each time I sync'd sorted that, Its a workflow procedure.
SO, now that my Touch has been replaced, iTunes cannot see it. The PC can identify it on USB1 or USB2, My work lap top can see it and has indeed upgraded it to V2 software, just in case that was the issue, but no. For some really weird reason Itunes on my desktop cannot see the new pod.
This does not make sense with the argument that Apple software doesnt work on a PC, but doesnt help that none of the Apple support staff, phone or in-store have a clue about Windows operations.
Because my Touch has now been trying to connect to 6 separate installs of itunes, multiple USB ports, multiple USB cables, a complete overhaul of the registry settings (everything else still works), and the loss of all my previous settings and backups from the last Touch... but still, the PC says its an ipod but cant install it, iTunes sits there, dumb.
The only thing I can do now is sell the device as brand new as it has never had music on it and is just a week old...
It has changed the MiniMac I was going to have for my new flat screen TV into a PC and suggests that anyone with a PC should stick to devices that run on PC, of which there are many, just without the user interface of the dear departed IPod Touch.
Thanks

Connection timeout with Apple WiFi devices

Ok, here's the scenario.
The important thing to remember is that all was working well, as happy as 'larry the lamb'. Being that I was running Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro 8,3 while accessing the internet through my iPhone 4 using it's Personal Hotspot feature (with iOS 4.2.5/4.2.6 running on the iPhone 4). Internet thethering worked beautifully between the MacBook Pro & iPhone4 and all was well. Some time before this I had used the Time Capsule's WiFi for internet access with NO problems (when I had dedicated broadband), but then switched to using mobile tethering (personal hotspot feature).
I then upgraded to OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511) the day it was released and did this over a friends fast internet connection using cable ethernet connection for quicker speed. While I was doing this, I also downloaded the latest iOS update for my iPhone 4 being iOS 4.3.4 (8K2).
Then the problems started.. I have not been able to connect to the iPhone's Personal Hotspot, nor the Time Capsule's WiFi and neither the Airport Express unit (that plugs straight into the power socket). All three devices say 'connection timeout'. Resetting them either physically (reset button) or through the Airport Utility using an ethernet link (in the case of time capsule and airport express) make no difference.
I wish I never updated the iPhone iOS and previously put of updating it for the previous few updates because the tethering worked so well on it, therefore I would want to downgrade it to iOS 4.2.5/4.2.6 again (need to locate and re-download those two versions and accuire instructions - if anyone could help, would be very appreciated?).
Now this is the strange thing:- Although I cannot connect to the Apple Time Capsule, Apple Airport Express and iPhone Personal Hotspot (getting the 'connection timeout' error all the time), I am however able to connect to a non-Apple device Vodaphone 3G WiFi point. The Vodaphone 3G device is a 3G USB mobile dongle that is plugged into it's own dedicated small WiFi base station.
I am at a loss as to what is going on here?

I can totally understand your frustration and it ***** that you are having to experience it. I do know that for me yesterday the Apple.com page was down all day. I could connect to any other website, but not the Apple.com website. However, that doesn't solve your issue.
I would advise you to break down your issue by each component and then work to solving them one at a time. I would first look into getting your machine connected to the internet first. If you have no way of getting it connected to the internet without using the other devices you mentioned at your home network, then go to a friends or to a place where you can test your machine's ability to stay connected to the internet through a different network. This will allow you to rule out the posibility that the issue is isolated to your machine/OS. If you find yourself still having connectivity issues, then work on solving them before introducing your other devices to the problem.
Once and if you solve the issue with your machine I would then start looking into your home network and the devices you are using (i.e. Time Capsule, Airport, etc.) and be sure to check to see if you have the latest updates for them: http://support.apple.com/downloads/#airport
For my own network, I use a modem (ARRIS) and router (Linksys E2000) and have had no issues with any of my machines (running Lion) or any of my other devices (i.e. iPhones, iPods, printers, etc.) connecting to my Wi-Fi network. I do however have family and friends that are using the same devices as you, but are not having any issues. However, none of them are using their iPhone's HotSpot and neither myself or anyone else has updated to iOS 4.3.5.
I truly wish I could be me more of help, but the truth of the matter is when dealing with networks that deal with many different devices there are just so many variables that can be at play in regards to the issue, that you truly just have to take it one step at a time until you isolate the source of the issue at hand.

VPN connection created with CMAK fails to update routing table on Windows 8.1 with error 8000ffff

When my clients connect their CMAK-created VPN, it fails to run the script to set their routing table with the following error:
Custom script (to update your routing table) failed (8000ffff)
My objective is to create a VPN connection with split tunneling - does not use the VPN connection as the client's default gateway.
All my clients are on Windows 8.1 64-bit, and are logged in with Administrative privileges
My VPN Clients are on 10.242.2.0/24, my internal network is on 10.172.16.0/24
I want only traffic for 10.172.16.0 to go via the VPN. Everything else should go via the client's internet connection
My Connection Manager Administration Kit profile, was created on Windows 2012 R2 CMAK with the following settings:
"Make this connection the client's default gateway" is UNticked on the IPv4 tab.
Define a routing table update is specified with a text file containing:
+++ Start of txt file +++
REMOVE_GATEWAY
add 10.172.16.0 mask 255.255.255.0 default metric default if default
+++ End of txt file +++
The txt file is saved in DOS/Windows format (not Unicode or UTF-8 which I've read causes problems)
I've tried everything in lower and upper case in the txt file after reading that the file might be case sensitive
The following appears on the client with logging enabled:

13 Disconnect Event CallingProcess = C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmdial32.dll
Where can I find out what error codes 8000ffff or -2147418113 mean?

That was it. Thanks, Steven
"By default, the dial-up entry and the VPN entry have Make this connection the default gateway selected.
Leave this default in place, and remove any gateways by using the REMOVE_GATEWAY command in the routing table update file itself."
It seems counter-intuitive to leave
Make this connection the default gateway selected, when I specifically don't want that behaviour, but leaving it selected and using REMOVE_GATEWAY works for me.
