Failed to connect to backend system

Hello,
I have installed visual composer and experience some errors.
My system fails to connect to the backend system in VC. I am able to create SAP transaction iviews for the system, see the alias, and user mapping is configured.
When I perform the System Connection test for my system which based on the load balancing template. All the test fail except the ITS test.
- SAP Web AS - SAP Web Application Server
- ITS Connection Tests the connection to an SAP
- Connection Test for Connectors Tests
- Connection Test Through DQE
Must all these test pass, or is it enough with only a subset of these tests. Does the alias have to be the same as the logical system.

Hi Jørgen,
It is a genuin problem. Just tell your Portal Administrator to give the userid (which you are using to log in to the portal from VC) the full authority for the alias you want to access from VC, as it is the portal administrator who has the rights to give access to various portal users. In the portal, the administrator can give a user the access to an alias by selecting that alias and change the required property.
Try the following flow to get the required document:-
help.sap.com->SAP Netweaver->SAP Netweaver 2004->people integration->portal->Administration Guide->System Administration->Permission,Role/User........
Check out the given help document, I hope it will help you in solving your problem.
Check out the section 3.2 (specially steps 25-30) in the pdf file provided in the following link :-

Thanks in advance,

Could not connect to backend system through portal via Web Dispatcher

Web dispatcher redirecting problem
Dear Experts,
I have implemented a scenario which comprised of customizing that is developed in Portal EP7. What customizing does is getting report from backend system (ERP 6.0)
According to the needs for reaching the portal from internet I configured the SAP Web Dispatcher in the environment as you may see its contents below.
The problem is when I run the customizing in portal system then it requires connecting to backend system (ECC 6.0) to get the data (report). But from this point on web browser comes to a blank page, could not view the data that is from backend system via portal. Because in the time when it tries to retrieve data in backend system, on the left bottom of the explorer the indicator shows internet address that system uses connecting to the backend system as local network address of the backend system which is not known in internet therefore I get blank page.
The question is how to configure the web dispatcher in a way that both portal and backend systems could be reachable from internet?
Contents of profile file of Web Dispatcher as;
SAPSYSTEMNAME = WDP
SAPGLOBALHOST = portald
SAPSYSTEM = 02
INSTANCE_NAME = W02
DIR_CT_RUN = $(DIR_EXE_ROOT)\$(OS_UNICODE)\NTAMD64
DIR_EXECUTABLE = $(DIR_CT_RUN)
Accesssability of Message Server

Hi,
To resovle this you must have registered FQDN for your backend system as well. When you call the report from Portal using internet it should call that FQDN of your backend system then DNS will resolve this & you will get the expected page. This way only you can resolve this issue.
Thanks,

User cannot connect to backend system with user J2EE_ADMIN.

I am using Rapid Installer to initiate the second part of the installtion "ERP 6.0 EhP 3 Self-Service Scenarios and Automatic Roles". When I get to the J2EE User section to enter the parameters, the user is defaulted to "Administrator" and I enter my password. I click next and get this message "User cannot connect to backend system with user J2EE_ADMIN." Any ideas?

If this is a double stack installation, you need to enter J2EE_ADMIN as user, NOT administrator.

Failure to connect to backend system in Portal

Hi Experts,
I was hoping someone could help, quickly!!
We are having an issue with transporting our VC model. We are on VC 7.0 SP17
I created a model in our development environment using a variable input form and adding the value help feature. After we deploy in our dev environment the model looks perfect!!!
We transported the VC model as an iview through the portal and we get a Failure to connect to back end system error. We ruled out that it is not a transport problem using the portal.
Can someone help!!
Thanks so much, Anna

Hi Again,
Thanks for both of your response, however, there is nothing in the log files andt we still have the Application error message, failure to connect to backend system.
We were able to bypass the error and the model starts to "semi-function" - but we cannot access the characteristic through value help, we just get empty drop downs. We all have the proper authorization in BI....
Do you think there is a permission problem in the back end portal?
Hopefully you can help.
Thanks so much, Anna

Publishing through Portal - "Connection to backend system failed"

We are having a problem publishing documents through our SAP Portalu2019s service u201CPublish Course Contentu201D under Course Administration.
When we go to publish, we get a status u201CConnection to backend system failedu201D with the message u201CNo message availableu201D.
We are running:
Portal on NW 7.0 EhP1, Support Package 04.
ABAP on ERP 6.0, EhP4, Support Package 18.
Both the Portal and ABAP systems are running on Linux RHEL5, with an ORACLE 1.0.2.4 database.
Portal and ABAP are on different servers.
Not certain if this is significant but under System Configuration, if I open my ABAP back-end systemu2019s configuration and perform connection tests, the overall Connector test fails.
We also have a sandbox system on which we did the configuration first. We have compared all of the values for the configuration we have done to ensure they are configured the same. On the sandbox, the connection test is successful and we can publish content without error.
I have been trying to review the various trace files, increase trace levels, etc. both on the ABAP back-end system and on the Portal. I have been able to find anything that appears significant but this is probably due to my not knowing what to look for.
Which specific trace files should be reviewed for the root cause of the issue? What are the exact steps the Publish process takes to accomplish its work? If we know the exact steps it takes (how it communicates, what modules it uses, what accounts) we might be able to determine the root cause.
We are using a SAML login to our portal for authentication and have removed the Basic password login module from the Authentication Stack u201Cticketu201D. We have established trusted RFCu2019s between the ABAP and Java instances for the Publishing function. When authentication is configured, we try to use the highest form available in the configuration. We use Assertion tickets if available, it not, we use Logon Tickets, if not available, we would then select X.509 certificates and if that were not available, would select Username and password.
Any ideas as to what we should be looking at would be greatly appreciated. I have searched both SDN and SAPNet for similar situations and not yet found something that corrects the problems.
Thank-you in advance,
Deb Nugent.

Arun,
Thank-you for your suggestions. The ABAP back-end system is up and I have verified the connection properties. I have had others verify as well. All appears correct.
The default trace files, through NWA, show the messages:
BackenConfig not correct. processId = 78775D8D1053B855;
com.sap.hcm.ls.shared.config.backend.BackendConfigException: Destination Exception
Can not get Destination com.sap.security.core.server.destinations.api.DestinationException: The properties for destination ZZ_LSOCP_JP3 of type RFC could not be located.
I have checked all of the trace files both on the ABAP and Java sides and cannot determine the root cause. I have repeatedly tried things suggested by other threads in SDN and others (consultants) have tried as well. We cannot determine the root cause of the connection errors and now, cannot get the Publishing to work properly.
The only system where the connector test works is our sandbox. Our dev and test systems all fail the connector test. We configured them all using the same documentation.
Is there some way to increase trace levels to try and get more details? And what objects would need to have traces increased?
Deb.

MSS Component not connected with Backend system

Hello All,
In our NW Portal 7.01 system, we have got old Business package of MSS 60.1 & when we are trying to connect to our backend system R/3 4.7, we are able to connect it.
Now we have upgraded portal to EHP1 and then we are trying to do the same, then we are not able to connect to MSS business package, as we are getting TP Host missing error and connection not able to do with R/3 system
Has anyone come across such scenario? please update us asap.

Just 1 correction, we are able to work successfully with NW 7.0, but not after upgrade to EHP1.
So need to know, whether anyone is able to work with NW 7.01?

Connecting to backend system with parameters

Hi,
i am able to get connected to bakend system with sytem number, portno, sid, host or ip... and can get transcation ivews with that...
ex: i am able to see perticular SAP R3 Transactional iview with these parameters
Then what is the purpose of creating RFC destinations, go.bat configuration, certificate creation and all those things.....
Thanks
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
This things are needed when you want to access any service from R3 to Portal or vice versa. Like <b>Adobe Document Service (ADS)...</b>It should be installed in Portal server..and if you want to use ADS for displaying/printing R3 form in pdf format then you need to access ADS from Portal. For this type of case you need only the creation of RFC destination, go.bat configuration for HTTP destination, certificate..etc..
Thanks,
Sekhar

Webdynpro application - connecting to backend system

Hi,
Iam developing an application in webdynpro.Iam able to generate the application in Frontend by using BAPI_BANK_GETLIST but its not taking the data from the backend system.
Is it necssary to create the application in backend.
Will any one please help me to sort out this.
Thanks & Regards
Sushma

Hi
To get the data from your BAPI you need to follow steps
1. create a Model.
2. open your data modele and add it.
3. Map with your Controller and the View.
4. Apply a table on your ivew
4. Excute your BAPI.
PS: IF data is still not pulling up from back end then you need to test BAPI on your backend ..it working fine or not
Thanks

Hi Vishal -
I'd double check that a) your SLD is running b) check with whomever is maintaining the SLD that it contains correct entry for message server to your target system - and that there aren't any cross - domain issues with this connection.
cheers

No system available - When connecting to backend system

In the VC we have created our models, we then select data, then click on the portal connect button, the logon page is then displayed from which we log-on, the logon page disappears and the VC 'Data' page is displayed, the 'Connect to System' field display's a message 'NO SYSTEMS AVAILABLE'.
We have checked and tested the Portal settings which are all connect the R3.
The VC has previously been working and we have implemented a live application last year, however, we have recently re-built our server and ever since the VC has been displaying the above error message.
We are on EP6 SP2, and the VC version 6
Can anyone please help...

hi
since you said you rebuilt the server and all. you might want to check the user mappings for the systems you have in the portal.
plus try redeploying the portaladdons for the visual composer.
hope that helps.

Potal Authorisation Error:"Failed to connect backend system.Check your syst

Hi Experts,
Please advise me on how to proceed....
I created a dashboard reports (5) based on 5 different reports in BI Queries using Visual Composer...I deployed them to portal and in portal i assigned those iviews to a role and assigned that role to a end user.
In BW end user is autorized to execute those 5 queries and in portal user is able to access those queries as well
But when he tried to execute Dashboard reports..it is displaying error
"Failed to connect backend system.Check your system definition and user priviliges"
Then i modified his authorisations in BW assigned SAP_J2EE_ADMIN role in BW and then in portal he is able to execute the Dashboard reports...by assigning the SAP_J2EE_ADMIN role he is able to execute dashboards in portal and he got more authorisation in portal than he required like 'Content Admin','User Admin' and 'System Admin'
I tried by using SAP_J2EE_GUEST role but he is getting error
"Failed to connect backend system.Check your system definition and user priviliges"
Please advise on how to proceed
Thanks

Hi Experts,
I am a BW Consultant working on Portal & Visual Composer (7.0)
As a Developer i got SAP_ALL & SAP_J2EE_ADMIN roles in BW and System Admin and VC role in Portal.
In Portal Created/Published iviews for BW Queries (Transaction) and Published them to a role (role1) in portal.
In Visual Composer i developed Dashboard reports on BW Queries ,made them public and deployed them to a portal role(role 1) in portal.
I assigned portal role to my self and tested the queries and dashboards in portal everything is working perfectly.
In VC i can see 3 different systems defined in Portal
I created a Test user (with profile of end user) in BW,Testuser is authorised to view all the reports in BW and All data in all data targets and in portal testuser is assigned with Role1 and VC Role.
(Note: In BW Testuser doesn't had J2EE_ADMIN role).
Portal:
When i login to portal as testuser and tries to execute the BW Queries (Transaction) and it working perfectly.
When i tried to execute Dashboard reports developed in Visual Composer it gives me an error
"Failed to connect backend system.Check your system definition and user priviliges"
In Visual Composer i logged in as testuser (as test user got VC role assigned) i can't see any list of avaliable systems under "Find Data"
When i modified testuser profile in BW and updated with SAP_J2EE_ADMIN then i can execute the dashboard report but at the same time testuser got more than what he should have like user admin,system admin...etc
I searched the sdn and find some similar threads ...but nothing was useful
Please update me what went wrong and how to fix this...
Thanks in advance
