Hiding url Prefix using webdispatcher

Dear Friends,
Need your help in regards to webdispatcher.
Scenario:
We have created ABAP webdynpro which will be used as application for enduser for punching the data via URL from internet.
e.g. Dynpro name: http://<ECC HOST>:8000/sap/bc/webdnpro/sap/ztest
As exposing the URL on internet directly is very risky and against the security policy. We have installed the Webdispatcher, where we have configure SSL in webdispatcher, now all the user come via HTTPS from webdispatcher e.g. https://<SAP WEBDISP>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
Above is working perfectly fine, now we are thinking of hiding the Prefix i.e /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
It means when from internet i call https://<SAP WEBDISP> i should get the same page but in this case complete url should not be visiable to users.
i mean https://<SAP WEBDISP> url should remain as is, but it should work like https://<SAP WEBDISP>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ztest
Can anybody share there experience or idea how can we can achieve this if possible.
Waiting for your inputs.
Thanks,
Anil Bhandary

Hi,
You could create an alias in the SICF transaction for your web dynpro application. Check defining alias section in this SAP help: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/55/361a3c9c004866e10000000a11402f/content.htm
hope this helps,

Mac testing server URL prefix problem

Greetings,
I've searched through a bunch of forum and support topics
with no success so here's a post.
I'm building a site on a Mac using some basic PHP (not
database driven) and would like to be able to preview the files in
a browser. I'm setting up a testing server with PHP/MySQL as the
Server Model, Access as Local/Network, and the location of the site
folder pointed to. My problem is the URL prefix...
I have tried the following URL prefixes and keep getting the
same error message in DW ("Dreamweaver cannot use the prefix you
entered to display live data....HTTP error:0") and a connection
failure in the browser. The following attempts include the name of
my hard drive, my Mac User name, and the name of the folder my site
rests in.
http://myHDname/
http://myHDname/~myUserName/
http://myHDname/~myUserName/siteFolderName/
http://localhost/
http://localhost/~myUserName/
http://localhost/~myUserName/siteFolderName/
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

My guess is: you are not actually using a web server to serve
your
documents.
see if reading the documentation helps....

URL prefix under IIS for multiple sites

I'm trying to set up DW8. I webmaster a large number of sites
for clients using a variety of hosting companies and web servers. I
use IIS under Win2K Pro.
Pre-DW, my setup has been to have a test area with folders:
Inetpub\wwwroot\site1, Inetpub\wwwroot\site2, etc. To test I browse
to localhost/site1, localhost/site2, etc. Then I copy the files to
another part of the disk: websites\site1, websites\site2, editing
them to change directions to the include files (sometimes I work in
ASP, sometimes in PHP). Even with a utility we've made special for
this task, this is a ROYAL PAIN. Then I upload site1 to server1,
site2 to server2, etc.
I have to do it this way because IIS will only recognize one
website at a time, and I jump around from site to site so often
it's a real pain to turn the sites on & off via the Control
Panel.
Now I'm trying to set up site definitions on DW8. For Site1 I
say the URL is www.site1.com, the local testing spot is
Inetpub\wwwroot\site1, and it gives me this "site URL prefix for
the testing server does not match the site URL prefix specified in
the HTTP address". What do I do? What have you-all found is the
easist approach:
1. fool DW about where files are kept?
2. Do the PITA switch between which site IIS thinks is
"live"?
3. host a local multi-site server?

Wildcards in gateway URL prefixes?

Hello, We are using a proxying utility called EzProxy from Useful Utilities for controlling student access to online databases and catalogs, which use client-IP as it's security mechanism (basically if the requests come from our network it lets the client in). I would like to host it through the Plumtree portal as a remote portlet, so that the portal can assume responsibility for access control. Here's why it isn't a slam dunk to set it up as a fully gatewayed remote portlet: to proxy remote hosts, it uses 'proxy by hostname'. A request for www.abc.com/whateverpassed through ezproxy.royalroads.ca ends up being returned to the client (in this case our portal for inclusiion as a portlet) as www.abc.com.ezproxy.royalroads.ca/whatever. As you can see, it dynamically adds to it's hostname list anything it's proxying. There's a better explanation of how it works at http://www.ezproxy.com/support/rewrite.html near the bottom of the page under 'new strategy'. My question to you is 'Can I set up in the Gateway URL Prefix list something like: http://*.ezproxy.royalroads.ca/. and expect it to properly gateway through the portal?' There's no way for us to know what will appear in place of the * beforehand, so we would like some way to wildcard the 'start' of the urls. Please let me know if this is simple to accomplish and/or feasible... if it is not we may have some other options to pursue before spending a ton of time trying to get gatewaying working. Thanks! -Dev.

The transformer will only transform URLs in Javascript if they fall in obvious places (e.g. setting a document.location or a window.open URL). Since you're passing an URL to the application.boot method, the transformer has no idea that it's dealing with an URL.
To make this work, follow these two steps:
1) Make sure the URL matches at least one of the patterns listed under Gateway URL Prefixes in the Web Service editor for your portlet.
2) Wrap the URL in a pt:url tag to give the transformer a hint that you want it to transform the URL, e.g. application.boot("<pt:url pt:href='http://localhost:7021/application/script/classes' xmlns:pt='http://www.plumtree.com/xmlschemas/ptui/'/>").
That should do the trick.

Winrm and URL Prefix

My company changed the default wsman URL Prefix for Winrm. As a consequence, we cannot access file shares on Failover Clustering. We get Event Error codes 142 and 49 under the Windows Remote Management Event logs. Changing the URL Prefix back to
wsman resolves our issue. Is there a way to resolve this issue keeping our changed URL Prefix?

Hi Jeffreyw1,
Based on the description of your cases, you wanted to change the default wsman URL Prefix for Winrm. After discussion with escalate engineer i got we
had better use the default settings for it. Changing it is not supported.

Display URL prefix for file source

Hi Gurus,
Maybe a real simple one, but please advise as the site is going to go production soon.
Please take a look at this eg.
Filesource1:
i)physical dir(URL): file://localhost/private/htdocs/abc/
URL prefix : file://localhost/private/htdocs/
display URL prefix : http://my.server.com/
ii))physical dir(URL):file://localhost/raid02/htdocs/mkc/
URL prefix :file://localhost/raid02/htdocs/
display URL prefix :http://my.company.com/
I have a single file source(Filesource1) in the admin set up that will crawl two different directory structures with two different display URL.
I had initially crawled with "No display URL" option, then used the Display URL screen to enter both the mappings. It worked(it updated the URL column in wk$URL table to start with 'http://'), however, new crawls dont seem to recogonize the Display URL mappings.Is this because there is more than one mapping?
Is the only solution to create two different filesources with a display URL mapping for each?
thanks,
Sundeep

Hi Leah,
The display URL for a Database Source should point to a separate server that provides web access to the document. It is not meant to point back to the SES instance. As the Admin Guide states:
"This connector requires that there is URL-based access to the records in the result set of the view or query."
In other words, the display URL should be something you can copy/paste into your browser location bar to view the document, with the other server rendering the document information to a user completely independently from SES.
HTH,
Mark

URL Prefix in a reverse proxy scenario

Hi,
we actually have a problem with url-generation in our reverse proxy scenario.
We configured our reverse proxy (apache; not a web dispatcher) to map an url from
> http://external-host/url-prefix/irj/portal
to
> http://internal-host:50000/irj/portal
Our problem is that the html portal logon page generates absolute urls to resources like http://external-host/com.sap.portal.epcf.loader/... As you can see it is dropping the url-prefix. So our pages are not displayed properly and forms cannot be submitted.
Is there a way to tell the url generator to put a prefix into each generated absolute url?
We have SAP Netweaver Portal 7.31
thanks & regards,
Christian Buschmann

Samuli Kaski wrote:
Anything is possible. A recommended configuration would be for you to setup DNS aliases for all of your applications (SAP Portal, Ruby, etc.). That way you can have virtual host specific reverse proxy mappings. Believe me, it will pay off.
Yeah, that's what we have done on other sites. But it has the drawback that you have to get seperate ssl-certificates (extended validation) for each domain or have to update the existing ssl-certificate with additional dns-aliases.
So we tried on this site to sepearte each application by url-prefixes. So each application is covered by the same certificate.
Having a non-standard configuration means you will have to implement tweaks here and there not to mention how painful it is to maintain such a configuration.
Still, if you want to try it out try the following configuration
<Directory /app2>
          ProxyPass /app2/ htp://portalhost/
          ProxyPassReverse /app2/ http://portalhost/
</Directory>
Apache will use URL prefix /app2 for any URL generated by AS JAVA. That said, you will run into problems eventually since URLs get generated in so many ways, including URLs within HTTP responses which Apache will not change.
That's our problem now. Apache does map the url from http-request but the http-response-content from sap-portal is untouched. So absolute links within html pages generated by sap-portal are pointing to the wrong path. Protocol, host and port are correct but the path is missing the url-prefix.
So i don't want our apache to correct the links and rather want sap-portal to produce correct links. It's working fine with protocol, host and port for urls, but i can't set an url-prefix for the path-component.
So my hope is that you can make the url generator from sap portal aware of our url-prefix (maybe depending of virtual host, or by setting a field in http-request) like it's aware of incoming protocol, host and port. So that every generated link will get an url-prefix for it's path component.

Cannot enter URL or use advanced tab when creating a (local) testing server

Hi,
I have created a site in Dreamweaver and I have tried creating a testing server. However everytime I try to create a test server Dreamweaver does not allow me to enter the Web URL in the server window. I knnow its local (localhost) but it seems it should still need a URL - http://localhost/...
It allows me put in the name of the server the connection type - Local/Network and allows me to browse to the server folder and select it but does not allow me to put any data in to Web URL: field.
Additionally, it does not allow me to select the Advanced tab to specify my Server Model - PHP MySQL.
When I click save with these settings I can see all the necessary files and folders in the Dreameaver Testing Server window but when I go to create a database connection I get an error saying "The URL prefix http:// for this site's testing server could not be resolved" - on hitting the Select button to select the database.
I am running WAMP (in Windows 7) and I can see the database in phpMyAdmin. I know the username and password are correct.
Any help would be appreciated - Thanks

Does this help?

Which URL to use to open a financial report from a Task list ?

Hi,
I've got a big issue in Hyperion Planning : I do not know which URL to use to open a financial report from a task list.
If I use the Smartcut (given when you do a right-click on the report, then Properties), a tab is opening (normal behaviour), but another tab is opening under the tab, which is very ugly, and moreover which prevent from using the PDF/HTML display icons !
Is someone know which URL to use to display correctly a financial report when opening it from a task list ?
It's an emergency, please help !
Thanks very much.
Virgile.
PS. : we use Internet Explorer 8 and we use 11.1.2.1 Hyperion Planning version
Edited by: 808808 on Jan 5, 2012 3:41 AM

Hi,
OK, thanks, it almost works !!
I've just a problem. 2 tabs are opening.
One is opening correctly and displays my report. I can display it in PDF/HTML.
But another tab is opening with this message : This window can now be closed since the application has been launched in a separate window. Note: Popup blockers may prevent this application from working properly.
Do you know why this tab is opening ?
Thanks very much for your help.

Dynamic URL Configuration using variable range - WAD

Hi,
I am trying to configure a URL dynamically using variable range values. There are two variables which I pass to the URL, Sales Document Number and Posting Date. Sales Document Number has a single value and Posting Date is a range variable. The single value for sales document is passed to the URL but the date range is not passed and hence the web template gets the blank value for the date and shows the variable screen as this is mandatory. The URL is as follows.

Building arguments of URL when using HTTP Adapter

I am using the HTTP adapter in one of my interfaces and need to call an url that has arguments. For e.g.
http://dpw6716.roseville.mycompany.com:8058/accelis/servlet/publish?type=create&ItemId=1018&Name=Harshad&Desc=FromXI
In the above URL the <b>ItemID</b> and the <b>Description</b> are dynamic. Is it possible to build such dynamic urls and used in the http adapter configuration? if so how? Can context objects be used here for the dynamic part?
Thanks,
Harshad

Hi Harshad,
it is possible to build up dynamic URLs, but the way is quite complex. You have to configure a XI-mandant as "Application System" to use it as allocator. Your message will be received there in an inbound-proxy (ABAP), where you have to implement a dynamic WAS-Request (class CL_HTTP_CLIENT).

Modifying Portal URL to use Fully Qualified Domain Name

Hi,
We have a portal that I can access now by using the URL 'invsrvr001:50000/irj/portal'. We would need the URL to use the fully qualified domain name such as 'invsrvr001.company.com:50000/irj/portal'. Towards that end we added the profile paramter 'icm/host_name_full' with parameter value 'invsrvr001.company.com' and restarted the server. After the we tried to login to the portal using 'invsrvr001.company.com:50000/irj/portal' but the system displayed 'The page cannot be displayed' error.
What else needs to be done so as to use the fully quailified domain name?
Do I name to change the computer name from 'INVSRVR001' to 'INVSRVR001.COMPANY.COM'?
Regards
ND

Ok, if you want to use FQDN including your domain extention (host.domain.com) you need to include your host into the domain.
Also your PDC should be doing the time of DNS server so check that.
This should solve your issue, please close the thread.

Hi Kalpesh Chhatrala,
I wonder if you are using the WCF Soap Service or the WCF Rest Service.
Since your WCF Service works very well without the URI Rewriting, then it seems that you have do something wrong during the process of the URI Rewriting, so please try to refer to the following articles about how to do the URI Rewriting
for the WCF Service:
