IISproxy problem: Edit locally - check in

Hi all EP freaks,
I have with succes implemented th IISproxy filter so I now can access the portal through the IIS(version 5.0).
I have som excel files that are being edited with the "Edit locally" function. This works fine (excel opens up and I can edit the data locally) but when I afterworth will "Check In" the modified documents the system "hangs". On the client the normal "copy file windows window" showing "Copyied 140% and still not finished... This wil go on for ever so I click cancel and the modified excelfile is'nt updated through the portal.
THIS WORK FINE BEFORE I IMPLEMENTED THE IISproxy module...
In the IISproxy log file i have:
18:02:47   4400 Proxy    | POST http://server01.domain.local:50100/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fTEST!2fManager!2fTESTMAPPE!2fDocuments!2fcom.sap.km.AdminExplorer_2/dok | HTTP/1.1 200 OK | 0.000 | 0.078

Please help me
Best regards

Please try also the following settings:
use-continue=false
keep-alive=false
close-socket=true
These were reported by SAP support as the recommended settings for customer having problems with Local Editing and IIS Proxy.
ActiveX is for Windows only, Java Applet can be used also on other platforms. To use the Java Applet uncheck ActiveX, select "Java Applet" and set the version to "1.3" even if running 1.4 (again a recommendation from SAP support).
If it still doesn't work, you should check that your Java Plug-In actually works. Here is a link I always use to check that the Java Plug-In works:

Problem in Edit Locally

Hi,
I can't able to work with "Edit Locally" in my text file in the Public document.
Can any body tell me,If i want to do any setting or adding any role ?...for enabling the "Edit Locally" option in my public document.
Regards,
Ravi.

Hi Ravi,
You need to configure edit locally in the KM Configuration either to run as Java Applet or ActiveX:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/a6/181b09bcc7fe4389c8c17d2ad849cc/frameset.htm
Also, as mentioned there "Regardless of whether you are using ActiveX or the Applet, you have to make ActiveX settings in the browser (Internet Explorer) in order to use the Edit Locally function."
You might also want to check all prerequisites mentioned here:

Hi Krishna,
Which java version r u talking about??
**Is it on Portal server machine ?
(Details of java version on portal server machine)
java version "1.4.2_09"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_09-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_09-b05, mixed mode)
OR
**on my local machine (where from I am accesing the portal)
(Details of java version on my local machine)
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
I think it's someting related to IE settings not java version..

Excel files getting corrupted when editing locally

We are getting corrupted files when using "edit locally". Editing seems to work fine, but when the next user tries to open the file it is corrupted. This error only occurs intermittently. When checking the logs I found below error message:
#com.sapportals.wcm.repository.service.appproperties.PropertiesManager#irj#com.sapportals.wcm.repository.service.appproperties.PropertiesManager.handleCheckout(431)#System#0#####Client_Thread_13##0#0#Error##Plain###Failed to handle checkout for rid /ithw/it hw documents/Inventory/MU_Inventory.xls: com.sapportals.wcm.repository.service.appproperties.persistence.PersistenceException: [SAP_Portals][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-00001: unique constraint (SAPWCM.WCM_AP_PROP_PRIMARY) violated
ORA-06512: at "SAPWCM.WCM_AP_COPY", line 1
ORA-06512: at line 1
Does this have anything to do with my problem? What do I do about it?
We're using KM Docuserver Control 6.1.5.1

Carl Schultze

TSM:
Thanks for the reply. I'd be "LOST" without you!
Anyway, the camera only came with a Windows disk. Per the manufacturer, it doesn't need mac drivers, and the windows drivers are only for the web cam function (which i don't use.)
The camera is formatted under FAT32 (Windows) format. I couldn't run permissions repair. I did do a repair disk under disk utility. Still having the issues.
I tried iMovie. I can import the avi file from the camera, and it works!!!!
So it would appear that there's a bad codec in QT/Perian/VLC?

Local admin rights when Edit locally

Hello, all!
We have the same problem as in
Local Admin rights to "Edit Locally" ?
"The end users do not have administrator rights on their local PCs , they logon to the domain server with restricted rights. When it comes to portal, when trying to edit a document with "Edit locally" it is not possible to do is even if the user has all the rights for the document in the Portal KM configuration. When we make the user local admin, everything is OK"
We are on SPS14, Windows XP SP2. Domain users can run corresponding applications and can create dirs or files in a temp directory. We also utilize env. variable SAPKM_USER_TEMP but with no success.
Could yoã please suggest, how to find rights needed to execute Local Edit. Are there any way to trace this Docservice ActiveX?

Hello Roman,
here a note which describes a solution for a user account wuth restricted rights:
The Edit Locally activex will be installed based on following
installation steps:
The browser will recognize that the KM DocService activex has to be
started.
In case of the activex isn't installed on the the PC, it will be
downloaded from the KM server (...etc/docservice/docservice.cab)
The browser will extract two DLLs from the docservice.cab file
(docservice.dll and sapkmprogressplayer.dll) and register them on the
local PC. To see if the installation succeed you can open within the
browser following dialog: Tools/Internet Options/Settings/View Objects,
look for program file SAP KM DocService Control.
Registry keys in following areas will be created:
Area HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT:
HKCR\AppID\{5F8983A6-347C-46B9-BA7A-1B87E5DAE0BC}
HKCR\ProgressPlayerMod.ProgressPlayer
HKCR\ProgressPlayerMod.ProgressPlayer.1
HKCR\CLSID
HKCR\TypeLib
Area HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ModuleUsage\C:/WINNT/Down
Downloaded Program Files/DocService.dll
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Code Store Database\Distribution Units\
When finishing these steps successfully the installed version can be
located within the browser dialog Tools/Internet Options/Settings/View
Objects SAP KM DocService Control and den KM DocService will
start loading the document content from the KM server and starting the
corresponding application for editing.
Installation with restricted user accounts:
With restricted user accounts e.g. no access rights to create registry keys in the area of HKCR or HKLM etc., which lets the described installation fail, following installation procedure leads to success:
Register the needed DLLs manually on the PC (e.g. via a shell command script) with a user account having enough access rights.
1.1 Create an installation folder (don't use /windows/system32) on the PC and copy the DLLs (docservice.dll and sapkmprogressplayer.dll) to it (extract them from docservice.cab with a tool e.g. winzip).
1.2 Open a command shell on this installation folder.
1.3 Unregister possible existing versions with the following command:
"regsvr32 docservice.dll /U " and "regsvr32 sapkmprogressplayer.dll /U "
1.4 Register the both DLLs with: "regsvr32 docservice.dll" and "regsvr32 sapkmprogressplayer.dll "
1.5 If the two registration steps fail check the permissions to write
into the system registry.
1.6 The installation folder do not need special permissions, the linkage to the DLLs will be done via the system registry.
1.7 Additionally the following setting is mandatory to succeed the installation:
Disable the "ActiveX Version Check" function within the KM Configuration
SystemAdministration->SystemConfig->KnowledgeManagement->
->Configuration->ContentManagement->Utilities->Editing->LocalEditing-> ActiveX Version Check (Uncheck the checkbox)
Setting a different TEMP directory:
In cases that it is problematic to use the standard %TEMP% directory, setting the environment variable SAPKM_USER_TEMP pinpointing to a corresponding directory path (e.g. X:\SHARES\USERS\xxx\CheckedOutDocuments) will be also supported. If the access to that directory fails the standard %TEMP% directory will be used as fallback.
Hope this helps,
Michael

Edit Locally: The download of the document failed

Hello All-
We've run into an issue on our portal (EP7, SPS17) where users can not Edit Locally. The command returns the warning "The download of the document failed".
I've checked the logs and the configuration of Local Editing in System Administration and nothing seems out of place. Furthermore, the same configuration seems to function fine in our test environment.
Any ideas?
thanks

Problem with Edit IN function between LR 2.3 and PS CS3

I recently upgraded my system to a Windows Vista 64 bit Core 2 Quad with 8 GB. Lightroom now works and loads images the way it should. I do have one major concern and need any help possible.
I am using LR 2.3 in 64 bit and PS CS3 ver 10.0.1 (which is 32 bit - loads slowly but otherwise works fine). The problem I am encountering is in LR Develop / Photo / Edit In... - using any of the menu items:
"Edit in Abode Photoshop CS3"
"Open as Smart Object In Photoshop"
"Merge to Panorama in Photoshop"
"Merge to HDR in Photoshop"
"Open as layers in Photoshop"
Photoshop opens but no image(s) are exported and I receive the message in LR - "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS3 could not be launched."
Photoshop, however, was launched but no image exported and so I can't work on the image in PS. The appropriate TIFF image is created in LR for the first two menu items - nothing for the last three menu items.
I can create a partial work around by setting PS as an external editor, however, I can't use 4 of 5 of the menu items.
All the menu items work fine in Windows XPpro.
Any help is much appreciated.
PS I also tried the most recent Window 7 RC with exactly the same results.
Thanks
Bob

Local function calling remote function - error

Dear All
i have following remote function wich return some value from both methods ie.
1) select func1(variable, varialbe) from dual@remoteDB; working
2) select func1(variable, varialbe) from dual; -- by making a synonym at local
Now i create a local function funclocal calling remote functino i.e. func1 in this example as:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION funclocal(locc varchar2, artnoo number)
RETURN NUMBER IS
query_str VARCHAR2(1000);
STKQTYY NUMBER;
artno number(10);
loc varchar2(80);
BEGIN
artno := artnoo;
loc := locc;
query_str := 'select func1(loc, artno) from dual ';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE query_str
INTO STKQTYY;
RETURN STKQTYY;
END;
compiled successfully.
But when i run as:
SQL> select funclocal('abc', 469183) from dual;
select funclocal('@st3', 469183) from dual
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: "ARTNO": invalid identifier
ORA-06512: at "funclocal", line 11
Please guide me.
Regards
Saeed

EXECUTE IMMEDIATE query_strAs Andreas states: Why are you using dynamic sql?
From what I see all you need is sth like
create or replace function funclocal (locc varchar2, artnoo number)
return number
is
begin
return func1 (locc, artnoo);
end funclocal ;
/even the whole concept of a »local« function seems suspicious. Why do you need that one?

Using "Edit in" function after upgrading to LR 4.4

Hello all,
I upgraded to 4.4 today and when I tried to use the "edit in" function on a photo an move to Elements 10 I got a message that LR was unable to prepare the selected file for editting and it will not be opened. I tried multiple photos and none of them work. I also went into preferences and set up Elements editor as my external program. This worked this morning before the upgrade. Any ideas?

xDa7myx wrote:
I thought that the "Edit In" feature works only with Ps full version (e.x. SC6), no the Element. I read that on LightroomKillerTips.com where they explained how to use this feature that was first introduced in 4.1 update.
Am I wrong, or "Edit In" Elements was interduced in a later/current update?
Thank you so much in advance
You can make "Edit in" open any program, but it's not intuitive.
Edit menu, Preferences, External Editing tab. Then Click "Choose" button, navigate to the program you want (on a PC it will generally be a .exe file in a subfolder of "C:\Program Files" or "C:\Program Files (x86)"). Then tailor other settings (file format, colour space, bit depth...). Finally (don't forget this) click on the drop down next to "Preset:" and choose "Save current settings as new preset" and give it a suitable name. That will add your chosen program as a new entry in the "Edit in..." list.
As I say, it's not inuitive!

Getting error while trying to edit locally the document in KM of portal.

Hi all
we have configured file server in km portal as fsdb mode in portal (ep 7 sp 14). We were able to edit locally the documents . But all of a sudden from some of the PCs we are getting the following error while trying to edit the documents.
The download of the document failed .
Is there any PC specific configuration required? For the same user we are able to edit the documents from some PCs but from another it is not working.
Thannking you.

Hi,
You have to set your activex control properly. then only edit locally in KM will work.

Problem with 'Edit Locally' command -- Due to IISProxy?

Hi,
We have a problem with 'Edit Locally' command since we are using Windows Authentication. Our architecture is:
SAP EP 6.0 SP2 Patch 28 (Solaris)
IIS Proxy (Windows 2003)
The situation is:
If we access to SAP Portal using old url (directly to Solaris) using form-based authentication we do not have any problem with 'edit locally' command.
However, if we access to SAP Portal using IISProxy and Windows Authentication we get an 'Operation failed' error message.
     Java plug-in console shows the following message:
cargar: clase com/sapportals/wcm/app/docapplet/DocApplet.class no encontrada.

     ... 10 more
Where is the problem? Is due to authentication method? SAP Portal or IISProxy configuration?
Thanks,

Thanks for your comment,
Now, we have tested with version 1.5.0_01 plugin version but the result is the same: 'Operation failed'
This is a very important topic to solve before installing Windows Authentication in a productive environment.
Has anybody any solution?

ALV-Grid: Is it possible to catch "LOCAL Function Codes" in any Event ??

Hi,
is it possible that i can catch a "Local Function Code" in ALV Grid with an Event??
For example if you click to an Grid Button on the toolbar than it must call an Event!
..........BUTTON: Local APPEND (existing in ALV Toolbar)
Function Code: '&LOCAL&APPEND'
My Idea is:
--- IF i click to the Button "Local APPEND" in the ALV toolbar, than it must after this command give me an Message( "It was Successfull" ).
But the "Local Function Codes" dont called the Event "User_command" OR "After_user_command" is there any other Event for this "Local Function Codes"???
Have anyone an idea?
Thanks in forward.

Improper message in iview when "Check in Now " fails in edit locally

Hi
We have implemented our own repository manager. I am facing a problem while Checking in a document after edit locally.
Usually edit locally undergo followings set of activities.
1.     Get the content of file using Content manager implementation and open that using appropriate application.(say a txt file in note pad)
2.     Then user can edit the file and save it.(it goes to temp directory)
3.     Three buttons appear in the iview (Check in now ,Check in later,Cancel editing)
4.     If user choose Check in now option .It should save the file in backend, which involves following steps
i.     Lock the resource
ii.     Set content and Save
iii.     Unlock
If any one of this 3 step fails while Check in Now it should display an appropriate message in iview stating the reason of failure.
So when a user without having Lock permission tries to perform a Check in Now, the first step fails (i).and it throws a exception which is wrapped as a ResourceException. In fact the same error message is getting written to the log4j files and it doesnt proceed with any backend operation.
But I am getting a message File "dmadmindoc.txt" has been checked in.
Where as file has not been checked in .Means application logic works fine, but error message wrapped doesnt get reflected to end user.
Can any body suggest overriding this message?
Regards
Arati

Hi Siva,
Please double-check the prerequisites at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/3b/cbf52dde472343a5b8941dd43cc479/frameset.htm - for example, that you are not in "Personal Documents". Also keep in mind that you might need to restart the server if you have switched on the application properties service at runtime.
If all this doesn't help, open an OSS message.
Hope it helps
