File System repository error in component monitor

Hi,
I created a file system repository in our portal server which will connect to windows file system and display the folder structure.
I created a File system repository manager with the following properties mentioned below
Prefix (must start with /): /FMICDelaers 
Lookup mode: caseless
Root Directory:
fendercorp\FMICDelaers 
Repository Services:   
Property Search Manager:  
Security Manager: W2kSecurityManager
ACL Manager Cache:ca_rsrc_acl
Windows Landscape System: B2B_Windows 
I have given full acees to everyone for FMICDealers folder on fendercorp server.
We have created a networkpath called B2B_windows as mentioned below
jCIFS Protocol: yes  
Description:   
Network Path:
fendercorp\FMICDelaers  
Password:xxxxx   
User: insidefender\ssayneni
When i am checking the repository in component monitor i am getting the below error
Startup Error:  The localroot does not exist: /usr/sap/EPD/JC61/j2ee/cluster/server0/
fendercorp\FMICDealers
Thanks
Sushanth

Hi
A general recommendation would be to use small letters in all ID's regardring network drives, repositories etc. See https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/002fb447-d670-2910-67a5-bfbbf0bb287d for advice on how to optimize performance of KM.
Other than that, you could check the documentation mentioned here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/message?messageID=6398301#6398301
It seems as the root directory in your File System Repository Manager is not defined correctly. It should be forward slash instead of backslash.
Go through the settings again and see if the startup error changes or disappears. The startup error indecated that it is a configuration error.

  • File System Repository Errors

    Hello All-
    I'm having a puzzling time trying to set up a file repository. My portal (EP6, SP14) is sitting on Unix box. I am attempting to connect to a NAS as a windows share. I've added the windowsKM system in system landscape and I've added the corresponding KM landscape. I then added an network path pointed to
    <IP>\Share, set jCIFS and used Domain/User as my password. I've then set up my repository, making sure the localroot matches the network path. To minimize variables, I'm just using ACLManager, not Windows ACL, to keep things simple.
    I believe I've followed all the steps as specified in the manual. But no luck. I keep getting the following types of errors. Either "Startup Error: The localroot does not exist: /usr/sap/EPD/JC02/j2ee/cluster/server0/
    15.233.66.264\portshare" or "getting mapped math - java.io.IOException: Canonical path not available for portshare." (I'm getting that when I use the UNC).
    Does anyone recognize these errors and can point me to where I'm going wrong? I've dug through the logs and message board and I can't find anything obvious.
    Plenty of points awarded for any and all helpful answers!
    Thanks-
    Jim Orbin

    Hi James,
    Would like to clarify few points..
    a. Does your share "
    15.233.66.264\portshare" refer a different unix machine or the same machine ?
    Same Machine: If this is the case, you need not provide the "IP Address" and other stuff. You can directly provide the actual path eg: /usr/docs
    Different Machine: Pointing the repository to other unix systems gives some problems. Does your Unix box have GUI mode. If so, a way to solve this..
    You will have a NFS (Network File Share) tool available. Use this tool and create a Network file share.
    Steps:
    1. Launch the NFS Server link from NFS tool and create a share in the Machine which hosts the docs. This machine is to act as the "NFS Server"
    2. Now go the Portal server.
    3. Here, launch the NFS Client link from the NFS tool and create a link to the share in the source machine which hosts the docs.
    4. Now, all the source docs from the host machine will be available in your portal server as a network share folder .
    ie.Documents under //machine 2/docs will be available in portal server under /usr/docs as a link.
    5. Now give the local path ie. /usr/docs in your repository config.
    The File System Repository will now work fine with no trouble in locating the folder in the same machine.
    Hope this helps. Pls get back if you still face issues.
    Regards,
    Venkat.

    Could any one help in solving this issue.
    Regards,
    Sravanthi

    Hi Chiluveru Sravanthi
    According to the documentation, there is a difference between the path syntax for the repository manager and the network path. Did you pay attention to this difference when doing your configurations?
    Network paths (Network Path)
    Specifies the path to the Windows remote server.
    The path consists of the IP address of the Windows remote server, and a path specification.
    For example,
    192.168.0.1share
    Alternatively, you can enter the UNC name and path of the server, for example,
    servershare.
    SAP recommends that you specify the IP address, since you can then check the availability of the server more easily, using the ping command.
    Note: It is not sufficient to enter the server name alone. Specifications in the form of c$ cannot be resolved either.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/63/7f283ac3d7c54b94964931fa1b4ed9/frameset.htm
    File System Repository Manager (Root Directory)
    This denotes the path to the root directory in the file system to which the repository manager is assigned.
    If you want to integrate documents from a Windows system, this can be a drive letter (followed by a colon) or directory path on the local server or a remote server share (for example, //myserver/myshare/somedir).
    If you are running your portal on UNIX and want to access the file system on another UNIX host, you must mount the required directory on the portal server.
    Example path when using a UNIX system:
    /usr/company/share
    The repository manager is responsible for the specified directory and all its subdirectories.
    Note that multiple repository manager configurations are not allowed to have the same subpath in their Localroot parameter.

  • File System Repository problem

    Hello guys,

    I had an idea that it could be because of the Serverlet Engine User, which is set up due to documentation, but is only a local user not a domain user. I don't know to which extent this user is important for FS Mount Service. I thought, that for connecting to a remote share, there is only important the user and password set up in Network Path settings in CM.
    Changing the user on which is EP running is quite a difficult step due to our security policies and so on. So I would rather not experiment with this until I try all the other possibilities.
    Could you, please, give me some advice?

    Hi Jiri,
    have you used double forward slashes in your network path? Please try: //10.80.1.55/Test_portal
    You can also test from the portal machine that you can mount the drive via command shell:
    "net use t:
    10.80.1.55\Test_portal /user:DOMAIN\USER"
    (make sure you specify the user with domain)
    Hope this helps,
    Robert

  • Unable to create File System Repository manager

    Hello,
    I would like to create File System Repository manager to this path: I have mapped a certain Network drive "
    main-uni-fs1\pictures$" to the Portal Machine and under this machine it appears as drive "N:\", inside it there is a picture folder which I would like to create the mapping to. I tried setting the "Root Directory" value to "N:\" and to "
    main-uni-fs1\pictures$" but I keep receiving an error message at the Repository Component Monitor (see below).
    10X,
    Roy

    Hello Roy,
    1> Create a new path that points to the pictures directory on the system. Enter the path lik
    mypc.myorg.com\pictures
    Under Sys admin -> Sys Config -> KM -> Content MGT -> Global Services -> Network path
    Under the user name and password, enter your username and password
    username whould be entered like domainname\username
    2>Then create a system in for the mypc.myorg.com server under
    Sys admin -> Sys Config -> KM -> Content MGT -> Global Services -> System landscape definitions -> System -> Windows Sytem.
    (Assuming u are acessing a windows sytem from a portal running on windows platform).
    You need to enter system id and description . Kindly remember the system id, since it would be useful in two places while usermapping and creating the file system repository.
    3>create a file system rep mgr under
    Sys admin -> Sys Config -> KM -> Content MGT -> Repository Managers > File System Repository
    Following properties are most important.
    Name , ACL manager cache, Security manager(which you would have to set to W2kSecurity manager)
    prefix(this is the folder name that you will identify your repository with) Widws landscape System (this is the sytem id of step 2) and root directory (network path of first step only in this case enter it like this //mypc.myorg.com/pictures)
    4>Then under user mapping section, you will find you system (the system id of second step) , enter your name as password.
    Initially when you configure your rep manager, you dont need to start ur servlet engine. If you modify any property then you need to re start ur servlet engine.
    These are the steps for creating repository
    If this still does not get resolved. Then kindly read the limitations of creating the file system repository manager in the link that I had posted in my earlier post.
    Thanks and Regards

  • File System Repository

    Hi all,

    What is the problem?  Whether I have missed anything ?

    Hi Hema,
    1. Does the User specified in Network Path have full access to specified folder?
    2. Check the Host within URL Generator Service (Content Management -> Global Services -> URL Generator Service)
    3. Check your KM-Windows System (User Mapping Type = admin,user?)
    4. Did you define an Alias for you KM-Windows System? The Property Windows Landscape System within the FileSystem Repository must point to the Alias name of your KM-Windows System
    Best regards,

  • File System repository manager

    Hi All,
    I am working on configuring a File System Repository Manager. I followed the documentation at
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/content.htm
    and
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/284
    I made all the configurations and also restarted the portal still do not see the repository in the KM content under root.  We are on Netweaver Portal 7.0 on AIX 5.3/DB6, Shared drive is on Win 2003 OS.
    Here are the some details on the configurations I made:
    Network Path:
    jCIFS Protocol: Active
    Description: Documents on Shared Drive
    Network path:
    <IP Address>\public\temporary
    password: ***********
    USer: Domain\User
    File System Repository:
    Description: Documents on Shared Drive
    Prefix: /abcdef
    Root Directory: //<IP Address>/public/temporary/FileShare
    Security Manager:AclSecurityManager
    ACL Manager Cache: ca_rsrc_acl
    Read Only: Not Active
    Please advice - thanks -sm

    Note: EP and Share Drive are on the same domain.

    Hello sm,
    You can monotor your repository manager cofiguration, whther it has been activated or not.
    It should show in green symbol if it has been correctly configured and active.
    Goto system Admin>monitoring>KM>Component monitor>Repository managers-->Check ur repository.... Green color indicate is working fine...
    Red color indicate error...
    you can check your configuration for the repository.
    Example configuration of a UNIX file system repository manager:
    Name                = fs_rep_unix
    Localroot           = /usr/company/share
    Prefix              = /company-share-unix
    Read Only           = deactivated
    Send Events         = activated
    Repository Services = properties, rating
    ACL Manager Cache   = ca_rsrc_acl
    Security Manager    = AclSecurityManager
    You can check your Local root i.e. your Root directory. The format should be correct as given in the example.
    Don't foget to appreciate, if helpful!!!
    Regards

  • Problem with File System Repository after release change

    Hello,
    we have been changing the Portal release from EP 6.0 to SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0 SP17. The OS of the host is Windows 2003 Server.
    If I open the component monitor to watch the repostitories, the state of the file system repositories are red and a error message occurred:
    Startup Error:  getting mapped math - Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
    I checked the logon credentials....they are ok. Also I checked the access from the Portalhost to the Windows File System....it´s ok too.
    In our previous portal release the FSR were ok!!
    Is there a difference between the file system repository configuration in portal 6.0 and portal 7.0?
    Thanks and regards
    Tom

    Hello Hussain,
    I have checked the username and the password of the user who have full access on the Windows file system, but the same error occurred. In the Network Path we have configured a domain user for the file system access. Here is the configuration of the network path:
    Name: Test
    Description: Test
    Networkpath:
    Host\share
    Password: ****
    Re-enter Password: ****
    User: domain\user
    Here the configuration of the repository:
    Name: Test
    Description: Test
    Prefix: /Test
    Lookup Mode: caseless
    Root Directory:
    Host\share
    Repository Services: Nothing
    Property Search Manager: com.sapportals.wcm.repository.manager.generic.search.SimpleManagerSearchManager
    Security Manager: AclSecurityManager
    ACL Manager Cache: ca_cm_rep_acl
    Windows Landscape System: Microsoft_Windows_KM
    Read only: unchecked
    Could it be that I need a user mapping for the access of the windows file system?
    Perhaps the configuration of the Windows Landscape System is wrong?
    regards
    Tom

  • File System Repository - using DFS path

    Hi, I want to integrate a windows share through a DFS (distributed file system) path. I only found this thread about DFS support where Marcel Rabe says that they have connected KM to a Microsoft based DFS.
    Has anybody else managed to use a windows share through a dfs path?
    I've created a network path where I have configured the dfs path with the correct user and password. I've provided the domain for the user like this:
    domain\username
    Then I've created a File System Repository where I have defined the same dfs path as Root directory. I use AclSecurityManager but I've also tried to change it to "not set".
    The Component Monitor shows the following error:
    Startup Error:  getting mapped math - Access is denied
    But I know that the username and password are correct.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Marcel,
    that's exactly the problem we are experiencing with the same setup and same error-message.
    Did you manage to resolve the problem? I'm gratefull for any hint.
    Regards,
    Alexander

  • Problem of Network File System repository

    Hi all:
    I want to set up a File system repository on a remote server.
    The steps are here:
    1.Define a Network Path.
    2.Set up a File system repository.
    Things done when the file system and the portal server are in the same zone of address,like  10.XXX.5.XX and 10.XXX.5.XXX,  but when reference to another file system, which IP is 10.XXX.10.XX, the repository can never start up!
    The message in Component Monitoring is "The localroot does not exist:
    10.XXX.10.XX"
    How can I solve this problem?

    Hi Rani,
    1.I think I have done all the steps setting up a File system repository. And when the server and File system are in the same segment of IP address, the repository works.
    Security Manager:AclSecurityManager
    ACL Manager Cache: not set
    Windows Landscape System: not set
    2.when use servername as the path, the message on monitoring is still on IP address.
    3.I can't see the folder
    4. I can open the path from the server on exploer.
