EPT and PAR Files

Hi all,
While importing business package we import ept files for the iviews (along with roles, worksets, pages etc.) and the par files for iviews also. But we can make iviews of the par files in portal also. So what is the significance of the ept files? Does every iview has a ept and par file associated with it? So how the iviews are constructed out of ept and par files?
Points will be awarded for helpful answers.
Regards,
Jaydeep

Hi Jaydeep
>>While importing business package we import ept files for the iviews
Business Packages, as you must be aware are bundles of portal content objects, such as iViews, Pages, etc. They are either shipped as ZIP files or EPA (Enterprise Portal Archive)files.
>>we can make iviews of the par files in portal also

Portal applications are packaged into PAR (Portal Archives). It contains all Java classes, Web resources and other files required to run the application. The advantage of creating iViews from PAR files is that the .PAR files contain all the required information about your application. Please follow the link below for details.

>>what is the significance of the ept files?
EPA files aid in the transport of portal content objects across various machines which run Portal, which means they rid you of the burden of having to create the objects all over on the new Portal. EPT (Enterprise Portal Transport)files contain the content objects in an EPA file. Please go through the link.

Creating data and .par files using SWIFT Integration Package

Hi,
I have a requirement to generate a data and .par file using SAP PI Integration package for SWIFT.
I am following the SAP Note: 1303428.
I have created 1 sender and 2 receiver comm channels(one for payload and other for par). Used operation mapping SWIFT_payload_parFile_split in the Interface determination.
I am using the adapter module : localejbs/swift/FileActConversionToSWIFTModule and setting the parameter DetachParameters to true. This adapter module is being used in all the three channels(1 sender and 2 receivers).
I have used ASMA ans has set the FileName checkbox.
Now after placing the file in the input directory, the file with the same name gets created in the output directory but the file is exactly same and also no .par file is getting created. I have set the Empty file handling to Ignore, so it shows that there is no data to create a .par file and only payload file is getting created but the payload file is exactly same.
Also if I use the adapter module : localejbs/swift/FileActConversionToSWIFTModule in only the sender communication channel, a payload file gets created like below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

But while creating the par file, it shows that the file could not be overwritten and so the .par file is not getting created.
I need to understand that:
1) How do I configure both of my receiver channels i.e. what should be the difference. Currently, I am just setting the
same Output directory in both and file name schema * and has used ASMA with FileName parameter. So same name files are getting created and so one file gets discarded. How to create a .par file.
2) Also Is the file above is the correct file required by SWIFT.
3) Also when I check in SXMB_MONI, I can see that after running the adapter module same payload as given above is going in both payload and par files i.e. also if I am using different names in my receiver communication channels two files are getting created payload and par both are having the same payload. So what exactly should get created.
Kindly guide on this implementation.

Hi,
I am able to generate the .par file by setting the localsecurity to true and the KeyId from the key manager.
Now two files are getting created .xml and .par. .xml file which is the payload file is the same as the input file with no difference and contains both the overrides and the data parameters. The .par file contains the Algorithm and the Value.
Is this correct?
Also suppose the input file name is SEPA.xml, then the payload file is created with the name as
SEPA.xml and the par file is created with the name SEPA.xml.par. I need only SEPA.par. How to achieve this.

Error While deploy VC Application and Par file

Hi Experts,
The deployment of par or VC application worked fine, but last one week i am getting error while deploying par or VC application.
I am getting pop-up window while deploy VC Application. That pop-up window shows Portal Request Failed. (com/sap/netweaver/bc/uwl/UWLException).
I am getting Error like this, Please Check the user ID and password, while deploying par from NWDS.
I have checked my userid and password, it is correct. I checked with admin userid and password, it shows the same error. it is showing same for my team members userid also.
I have checked logs and traces in server, nothing is logging regarding this deployment error.
Where is the problem, please anybody help me. I am using EP7 SP9.
Thanks and Regards,
Chinnadurai R

Hi Detlev,
I checked all the permission in the SECURITY ZONES, all the setting are correct in the portal.
I informed to our BASIS Team, they found that problem is, one process always running in SDM. It didnt let to deploy another PAR file. They cann't able to open the SDM after gave the SDM username and password, its shows "still processing". So, how can we kill the process ? They restarted the SDM and also J2EE Engine, its still processing. After that they restarted the Machine also, still the process going on.
How can we rectify the problem ?..
Thanks & Regards

DTR and PAR Files

At the moment our developers are looking for a versioning tool for managing their PAR files, this being the case I wondering if this can be done via JDI under scenario 1.
Is this complicated to configure is this really straight forward? Any documentation on this will be greatly appreciated as well.
-John

Hi John,
Sharing a project in the DTR is pretty simple: Just right-click the project and choose DTR -> Share Project... from the context menu. NWDS will then request the user to logon (if not done yet) and then request to select a workspace to store the project in.
This means that you first need to create one or more workspaces in the DTR. You can do this with the DTR Admin plugin of NWDS, which is disabled by default however. To enable it you only need to rename plugin.xml.disabled to plugin.xml in the eclipse/plugins/com.tssap.dtr.client.eclipse.admin_2.0.0. Restart NWDS after renaming the file.
You can now create workspace folders and workspaces in the DTR perspective.
Kind regards,
Pascal

NWDS 7.0 Error during Quick PAR Upload and while trying Exporting PAR-File

Hello,
I am trying to use the functions "Export as PAR-File" and "Quick PAR Upload" in NWDS 7.0.
Unfortunately I got an error every time when I am trying to use this functions. I am using the package explorer in the Java perspectiv in NWDS for starting this functions. The error tells me the following:
"Unable to connect to the Portal"
"Operation failed: Please make sure the server "XY" is running or check the log (sap-plugin.log) for more detail"
Thats all.
When I am looking in the log-file I can read the following messages:
"ACCESS.ERROR: Authorization check for caller assignment to J2EE resource [keystore-view.TicketKeystore: view-actions: GET_VIEW:ALL]"
"ACCESS.ERROR: Authorization check for caller assignment to J2EE resource [keystore-view.TicketKeystore: view-actions: IS_VIEW_EXISTS:ALL]"
"ACCESS.ERROR: Authorization check for caller assignment to J2EE resource [keystore-view.TicketKeystore: view-actions: SIZE_OF_VIEW:ALL]"
"ACCESS.ERROR: Authorization check for caller assignment to J2EE resource [keystore-view.TicketKeystore: view-actions: READ_ENTRY:ALL]"
LOGIN.ERROR|null|| Login Method=[default] UserID=[user_Admin] IP Address=[192.168.xxx] Reason=[Cannot authenticate the user]
I have tried this with several users and their passwords. All of the users have admin-rights at least in the portal. One of them even in the SDM.
I can sucessfully deploy webdynpros from NWDS into the same Portal with this users.
We are using SAP Logon Tickets and SSO is configured working fine between Portal and backend.
We have imported Key Store File in NWDS unter Window --> Preferences --> Java Development Infrastructure.
And we are not using the NWDI.
Who knows why I cannot even export par-files? Are their any configurations missing?
Best regards,
Iris

It is mentioning about authentication.
check whether you have access to deploy directly or not ? maybe direct deployment into portal disabled .
I think you have to follow the procedure of checkout and activate procedure.
Can you clarify few things
1) Are you using NWDI Based Transports in your landscape?
Login Method=default UserID=user_Admin IP Address=http://192.168.xxx Reason=Cannot authenticate the user
http://192.168.xxx is it your development portal?
Did you clarify with admin people whether direct deployment disabled?

Uploading par files in nwds and deploying back

Hi all,
I wanted to work with the masthead iview in nwds, so found it on the server as the par file and imported it into NWDS. Changed the headeriview jsp and deployed it back to the portal. But it is not working. Saw in another sdn thread that when you create the project in nwds, it does not bring up all the components from the par file as required and some class files are missing. I think this is the problem in my case. The solution to it was not given in that thread.
Would anybody help please.
thanks.
Lm

Hi
the following are the steps to modify a masthead.
1.Find the PAR file and copied to a temporary directory and renamed to the customer namespace taking off .bak extension.
2.Import the PAR file now using File->import option.
3.make necessary modifications.
4.once the JSP is edited, the PAR file needs to be created ans uploaded to the portal.If JDK is installed just login into portal and deploy the pAR file otherwise use PortalAnywhere to deploy it.
5.Now goto Content Administration->Portal Content->right click the folder you wish to create the mastheadiView.Select New from Portal Archive-?iView from the context menu.Select new masthead.
6. select poratal component Default and choose next.
7.enter the properties for masthead and next.
8.edit the Iview and saved it.
9.add the iView to Framework Page in portal catalog and edit page layout.
10.select iView from catalog and add it as Delta link and position it accordin to your need.
Hope this helps you to modify the masthead.
Regards
Victoria

Import .par file into NWDS and Rum it without deploying ?

Hello All,
I'm new to the NWDS and the Portal.
I've many Qns on my Requirement. Hope u guys can help me out in resolving my Issues.
Is this the right forum to place my Query ?
If not then please let me know the right forum .
My Requirement is like this :-
1. I need to create a Portal Application which calls an URL.
2. But before developing this, my Client gave me one 2 options :
a. He gave me a par file and asked me to make changes in it.
b. Create a new Portal Project which calls the URL ( Predefined ).
3. I wanted to check the 1rst option i.e " a ".
4. I tried to Import the .par file into NWDS like this :
* Windows --> Open Perspective --> Enterprise Portal .
* File --> Import --> Par FIle.
* I gave the name of the Project as PortalLogon.
5. I searched in the forum on this scenario and I found that the libraries for this project are not automatically imported.
A .Can any one tell me how to import the libraries and which are all the libraries to be imported ?
B. How to test my PortalLogon Project without deploying ?
Is it possible to test this Project without deploying ?
If yes can anyone tell me hoe to do this ?
Regards,
Deepu.K

Hi Deepu,
Usually Server will be having all the jar files and If you want to deploy your par file using NWDS you need to give a path to your Jar file location.
So better download all the jar files from your server and keep it in your local desktop.
Create a new folder called "JarFiles" in your desktop and keep all of your jar files inside.
Download Jar finder from IBM Site ( search for "Resolving Java Classpath Issues" in SDN ,you will get a pdf and follow it.).Add it as a plugin to your NWDS path.
Restart NWDS.
Now you can resolve the jar file issues.there are many weblogs /articles/forum QAs regarding this.
If u need more clarification,please let me know.
Thank you.

hi Deepu,
for simply displaying a URL, you can use the commonly available URL iView.
your folder->new->create iView->iView from template->URL iView and then enter your URL
for the other think.......
you can create an iView from PAR file.
your folder->new->create iView->Iview from PAR->then select your PAR and create an iView for that.
and the last one.......to see the effect without deploying it on the portal......refer the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/23/c0e240beb0702ae10000000a155106/content.htm
and the usual libraries to be associated are
htmlb.jar and
com.sap.portal.htmlbbridge.zip

PAR files and jsp pages into NWDS

Hi,
I need to modify transactions from the MSS 50.x package, i.e. HR transactions. I need to delete some fields on the screens.
The sysadmin was giving me a par file
com.sap.pct.hcm.attendanceoverviewperiod.par.bak
But when I import the par file into NWDS, the only thing I see is the portalapp.xml and a bunch of attribute files.
No jsp page, no class files..
When I browse into the directoria via sysadmin/support/portal runtime via WEB-INF, I do see all the necessary files. But how do I get the whole bunch of classes, jsp etc into NWDS? Download all single elements and put them manually into a NWDS project? There must be a better way
Any help will be gracefully awarded

I tried it, but when I follow your instruction, NWDS gives me an error in the import wizard "<dir> does not have a .project file".
If I look in the .par file, there is no .project file at all.
I looked in the download of the PCD, there is no .project file either, but at least the java classes and the jsp.
Is it removed intentionally? Probably because it is an SAP business package?

Tracks for WD par files and VC applications

Hello Gurus,
Could anybody please throw some light on the tracks for Webdynpro par files and visual composer applications?
I need to know if we need separate tracks for Webdynpro par files and Visual composer applications on the NWDI. Can we use one track for the development of Webdynpro and VC applications or do we need separate tracks for these developments? What is the best practice?
Appreciate much for your help in this regard..
Regards,
~~LB

Hi Leena,
In general SAP recommends to create a seperate tracks for differnet applications. based on your requirement you need to think of whether to go for single or multiple tracks.

Anil.

Why is the PAR file located in portalapps, pcd and temp folders???

Hi all - I downloaded the com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak file to make changes to the logon page. I renamed the PAR file after it was downloaded, made my changes, and exported back into the portal. Everything is fine....I just have a question in terms of what the difference is between what appears to be 3 locations where this file is located. First, it appears that the file I exported is now located at:
ROOT/WEB-INF/portal/portalapps (timestamp 10:25:22 AM)
However, there are backup versions (.bak) located in the following locations;
ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/pcd (timestamp 10:24:46 AM)
ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/temp (timestamp 10:25:06 AM)
It appears as though the file is loaded into pcd, then to temp, and then to portalapps? What exactly is it doing, and why are there 2 backup files?
Regards,
Steve

I understand the problem. Here are some ideas:
1) Permission repair only affects files in the system, userfiles are ignored.
2) For large file transfer, you must be hardwired. Wi-Fi is insufficient for transferring large files.
3) When copying Mac files to a Windows filesystem, illegal characters in a filename will cause the operation to stop without any informational error message. In any case, copying large files to a Windows machine is not very reliable. I recommend Mac-formatted network storage.
4) When attempting to mount a nonexistent network disk, Finder stalls with a 5 minute timeout. The solution is to add a "Quit Finder" menu item to the Finder icon in the Dock.
5) If the machine uses a dynamic localnet address, Finder is unable to locate an aliased network disk that has changed. You need to mount the disk with the "Connect to Server" dialog first to fix the aliase(s). A DNS setup may help to locate machines by hostname rather than IP address.
6) Switches are problematic. If you are using switches rather than routers you may be seeing congestion on machines connected to the switch.
7) I highly recommend rsync triggered by a cronjob running in the wee hours of the morning. rsync is robust and persistent in file copying.

Migrating and Enhancements in .par files created with PDK

Hi ,
We had deployed .par files created using PDK on EP 5 to EP 7 and they are working correctly.
Now there are some enhancement which are coming up in the applications.
I wanted to know whether it would be better to go to NWDS to modify those applications or would PDK be the right approach?
I am not sure what is the PDK file for NW2004s?
Appreciate if some one can guide on which approach should i take for enhancements.
Regards
PN

How to create a par file that includes an image and a .swf file

Hi everyone,
I have a requirement to create a .par file which will contain a .swf file and a .gif file.
Can anyone please tell me the steps to do so.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Ranjeet for the quick reply.
I have created a portal project and placed the .swf file and the .gif file in the images folder and deployed it to the server. I downloaded the .par file and chked that it contained the .swf and .gif files. But when i run the application it does not show me the .swf file . An icon with a cross mark appears instead. I have flash player installed on my PC .The .gif file when run works fine but not the .swf file.
Can anyone tell me a workaround for this ?

Download and modify ESS Skills Profile iView (PAR File)

Hi,
We have EP 7.0 (SP09), NW2004s, ESS 1.0 (SP04) + ERP2005 (SP05)
we need to modify the iView for ESS Skill Profile, so Users should only display thier qualifications and NOT edit them. So we need to delete the EDIT Buttons in the standard sap iView in the ESS BP.
- Where can we find the iView/PAR File (Code) on the Portal Server (com.sap.pct.erp.ess.skills OR sap.com/ess~skl/SkillsApplication)?
- What should we consider when modifying this iView...???
Thanks for your Tips.
