Dear Vinodh
Normally there might be many reasons for pics not getting displayed, as u have said that the photo is already visible in R/3 then u need to check the following things
1) check S_WFAR_OBJ authorization object has been maintained or not.
2) Access T-code PZUSWHO & check whether the following settings are maintained or not.
Check these links as it entails how to upload the Photos

Hi Sankar,
1)You can use the program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload the photos in the mime repository.
2)Use the following code to get the content from your mime and set the content to your interactive UI element as Xstring format.
    data:
    mime_repository type ref to if_mr_api,
    content type xstring,
    url type string value '/SAP/BC/BSP/SAP/myBSPapplication/rajkumar.jpg' .
mime_repository = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
call method mime_repository->get
    exporting
      i_url     = url
    importing
      e_content = content.
wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATAS' value = content ).

How to Displaying Employee Photo in ESS Who's Who via Reverse Proxy?

Dear Gurus,
I have a bit of problem to displaying employee's photo in ESS Who's Who via Reverse Proxy.
In my landscape, end-users are only able to reach the Reverse Proxy server, not the actual SAP server itself.
In Who's Who, when displaying the employee's info, the URI for the photo is generated using the actual SAP server name.
Illustration:
- the URI we expect: https://portal.domain.com/sap/bc/contentserver?.....
- the URI we get: http://r3server.domain.com/sap/bc/contentserver?....
Does anyone know where/how I can set the URL (hostname and protocol part) to refer to my reverse proxy?
Or is it because SAP is using an absolute path rather than the relative one?
How do we go about it?
Thanks in advance.

How are you? We are fine at here!!!

Hello Adapag,
Sorry for the dummy question, but you said that by using fqdn solved the issue, right?

Displaying employee photo during runtime

I form for employee master and i want to store all employee photo in file and have them displayed during runtime from the file
directory. That is when i query for an emp_no
the records along with the picture in the file directory should also come up?
null

You'll have an image-item in your form and use read_image_file built-in. The image file has to be on the local client or on a network drive the client is connected to, and that will be quite a problem.
Another way to do, which is, by far, better is to have the image stored in a longraw column of a table in your database, as I did and it isn't too difficult.
Or, eventually, use BLOBS - which I haven't done so far.

Batch uploading of employee photo using T-code OAAD

Hi All,
When uploading employee photos with OAAD, I can not use SHDB to record the bdc actions because there is a popup function(to specify uploading JPG file) which can NOT be recorded by BDC.
So anybody got some suggestions?
Thanks in adv.
Br,Kee

Hi,
Use this code this will work.
This is a code workaround instead of BDC from SHDB.
START-OF-SELECTION.
LOOP AT t_record.
Since the employee photo is always stored in 0002 infotype, we need to
concatenate the employee id with preceeding zeros and pad "0002" in
right into the pernr field which will be passed to object_id
Any unwanted leading zeros deleted
    SHIFT t_record-pernr LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
Any leading space is removed
    CONDENSE t_record-pernr.
0002 is concatenated to the emp id
    CONCATENATE t_record-pernr '0002' INTO t_record-pernr.
Push the contents of pernr into pernr_zero since its a NUMC type field
and hence zeros will be padded automatically by the system
    w_pernr_zero = t_record-pernr.
Now pernr will be having zero padding
    CLEAR w_pernr_pass.
    w_pernr_pass = w_pernr_zero.
Call this function module for storing the photos.
    CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIV_CREATE_DIALOG_META'
      EXPORTING
        archiv_id = 'A1'
        ar_object = 'HRICOLFOTO'
        object_id = w_pernr_pass
        sap_object = 'PREL'
        file       = t_record-path.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Hope this helps you.

How do I configure my TC such that when wired to my router a) I can back up, b) sync the TC with my SONOS to play stored music held in iTunes, c) display my photos using iPhoto on my TV

The current set up is that I have my home network both in wired and wireless mode. All MACs are connected wireless through the dual band router (2.4 GHz) and have access to a wireless shared printer. I have also wired connected my TV through the router to access the Internet. I have an Apple TV wireless linked to the router (5 GHz) to play films on the TV
There are a few things I want to do.
I want to store my music and photos on the TC such that I can a) play music on any laptop, via the SONOS system or TV
I want to configure my SONOS bridge to be able to recognise that music is on the TC or pull music via Spotify
I want to be able to play music stored on the TC or display photos stored on the TC on the TV
I want to extend the network of the router without creating a new network
Any suggestions ?

If you store itunes andn iphoto library on the TC you could be in trouble. The TC has no auto backup mechanism.. it is simply unable to work as a true NAS. It has no media servers. It is slow.. it is very easy to corrupt libraries especially in connection over wireless. In general we recommend people do not do this.
If you go ahead anyway.. apple have specific instructions for moving the libraries.. do follow it.
I am not sure if the SONOS can play directly from itunes library or has to use an itunes server.. remember the TC is a dumb as a board router with no media servers. Apple TV also need an active itunes to work AFAIK.. you cannot play files.. unless you JB the ATV.
Also be careful as SONOS does not like apple names.. use all SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
Finally yes,.. at last .. you can extend the wireless in the TC using another apple router.. you cannot extend wireless using any other brand.
