How to install Apache Web server on my SAP Content Server

Dear Experts,
I am in the process of installaing Content Server in my landscape, i am working on Suse Linux 10 SP2 and planning to install ContentServer 6.30.
I have read the standard SAP installation document for the same and it says that we need to install Apache Web server version 1.3.XX, so i have downloaded the file apache_1.3.27-x86_64-whatever-linux22.tar.
Now i want to know the following before i take any actions on my further installation of the Content Server
What is the difference between Apache and httpd servers (services) are they different or same
Is the file apache_1.3.27-x86_64-whatever-linux22.tar correct to install Web Server on my Linux system
Do i have to download any other httpd files
How to install and start the Web server on my Linux
Waiting for some information
Thanks and regards

You can install a higher apache also (2.2.x), I'd not use the old versions. I'd also not use a "somwhere" compiled apache, you don't now if that version is clean.
I'd rather compile an own one, it's not that difficult:
Note 664384 - Generation info for Apache Web server for SAP Content Server
The result will be a default webserver (httpd) without any unnecessary modules compiled in.

  • PRO_E (PTC Server) insted of SAP Content Server.

    Dear All,
    I have a scenario here,
    The client is using Pro-E as a design tool for the engineering department and simultaneously saving the files in PTC Server, which is again a product of Pro-e.
    This is now a huge server with lot of data.
    The client don't want the data to be replicated once again in the SAP Content Server, So we were planning to go for an external link concept.
    I want to know now,
    1. After creating a DIR, can i link the file as original which is residing in PTC Server, not by pushing it to the any of the storage category.
    2. Do i require any Adapter to enter the PTC server for attaching the file.
    Best Regards,
    Ravi K BIlla

    Hi,
    the scenario you described is for sure not the best way to handle CAD data.
    I know that PTC use Pro/Intralink to stores the originals. If so, there are standard interfaces available to Pro/Intralink (www.innoface.de).
    The other possibiltiy is to use the direct integration (http://www.riess.de/EN/index.html). This is the prefered solution of SAP and ensures one central database without inconsistent redundencies.

  • How to install Apache Web Server with PHP on Sun Solaris Sparc machine

    Hi,
    We are trying to install the Apache Web Server and the PHP package on a Sun Solaris Sparc machine running on SunOS 5.8. We are having compilation problems with the source code of both these packages.
    Does anybody know if there are ready solaris packages for Apache and PHP available from where we can download and install instead of source code compilation?
    Or any instructions / things to watch for when installing Apache with PHP (if anybody has tried installing Apache with PHP on Sun Solaris earlier) is most welcome.
    Thanks,
    Harish

    Apache should be bundled along with Solaris check in "/var/apache" in Solaris 8 and Solaris 9
    php is available at www.php.net
    I found an old document for installing PHP maybe this will help.
    Cheers

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Installing PHP 3.x for Apache 1.x.x on Solaris
    Introduction
    This document describes how to install PHP for Apache on Solaris.
    You should have Apache installed before trying to install PHP.
    If you want to use PHP with MySQL then you must install MySQL first.
    Before we Begin
    1. These instructions assume that you have Apache installed according to instructions.
    Getting PHP
    1. You must be logged in as root to perform this installation.
    su root
    2. I save all my downloads in:
    /usr/local/dist
    If you don't already have one, you may need to create that directory now:
    mkdir /usr/local/dist
    3. You can get PHP 3.0.14 from here(www.php.net).
    cd /usr/local/dist
    ftp ftp.php.net
    cd pub/distributions
    bin
    get php-3.0.14.tar.gz
    bye
    Installing PHP
    1. We will install PHP in /usr/local/build, but use a tricky tar command
    to do it in on hit from the download directory:
    cd /usr/local/dist
    tar xvfz php-3.0.12.tar.gz -C ../build
    Compiling PHP
    1. First let's get where the action is:
    cd /usr/local/build/php-3.0.14
    2. You now have 3 options:
    * Simple PHP install without MySQL - goto step 3
    * Simple PHP install with MySQL - goto step 4
    * Custom PHP install - goto step 5
    3. Simple PHP install without MySQL. Next, jump to step 6.
    ./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.12
    4. Simple PHP install with MySQL. MySQL must be installed before you can configure PHP to use it. I recommend that MySQL should always be reachable with /usr/local/mysql. Even if you install it else where you
    should create a symbolic link from /usr/local/mysql. Otherwise the compiler can have problems finding the mysqlclient library. The command
    should look like this:
    ./configure with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql with-apache=../apache_1.3.12
    Next, jump to step 6.
    5. Custom PHP install. Take a look at the available configuration directives by using this command:
    ./configure --help
    6. Now we can make the PHP executable. This may take a while.
    make
    7. Now we install the PHP module with:
    make install
    Adding the PHP Module to Apache
    1. Now we have to setup Apache to include the PHP module:
    cd ../apache_1.3.12
    2. Re-configure Apache to use the PHP module. You should use your previous Apache configure command along with the PHP activate module directive.
    You can see your previous Apache configure command by doing:
    cat config.status
    You can configure Apache using the previous command with the added PHP module by doing:
    ./config.status --activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
    If you used the simple Apache install from instructions the command will look like this:
    ./configure prefix=/usr/local/apache activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
    3. Make and install Apache with PHP enabled:
    make
    4. We need to stop the server before installing the files:
    /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl stop
    5. Now we can install the new binaries:
    make install
    6. Start apache again (now running the new php enabled version):
    /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
    Setting Up PHP
    1. We have to tell Apache to pass certain file extensions to PHP. We do this in Apache's httpd.conf file.
    cd /usr/local/apache/conf
    2. Edit the httpd.conf file. If you do a search for php you will find a couple of commented out lines telling Apache to use the PHP module. You should uncomment them to look like this.
    AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
    AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
    3. I prefer to use the extension .phtml, you can use whatever extension you like (even .html) by adding lines to httpd.conf like this:
    AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml
    Check that it Works
    1. We have to restart Apache to make these changes take effect on the running server.
    cd /usr/local/apache/bin
    ./apachectl restart
    2. Apache should now be running with PHP enabled. The server version should include PHP/3.0b2.
    ./apachectl status
    Apache Server Status for dev.synop.com
    Server Version: Apache/1.3.9 (Unix) PHP/3.0.12
    Server Built: Oct 25 1999 00:37:07
    3. Now it is time to test PHP with a page. The simplest thing to do is create a page called test.php3. My file is here. This file contains the
    following text:
    <?php phpinfo(); ?>
    4. Point your browser at this file on the virtual host which you used:
    http://localhost/test.php3

  • How to migrate from SAP content server to OPENTEXT?

    We have been using SAP content server as our storage for archived data for years.
    Now we plan to start using OPENTEXT to admin our archived data.
    How can we use OPENTEXT together with existing SAP content server?
    My idea is to treat content server as any other media as as DVD, WORM, etc.
    However, I do not see that OPENTEXT can be configured to admin content server .
    If so, how to transfer whatever on the content server to IXOS?
    We are at Opentext 9.5.x
    Please share your experience. Thanks!

    hi,
    Please refere SNote 1043676.
    Also, need to understand the following,
    How to move an entire content repository from one content server to another
    Sometimes you may need to move a content repository - but not necessarily all the content repositories from one content server to another. This can be done without much drama. Here is a means that I've used in the past:
    Use report RSCMSEX to export the repository from the source content server.
    Create a repository of the same name on the target content server.
    Use Report RSCMSIM to import the repository into the target content server.
    Delete the repository from the source content server (if desired!).
    The SAP progrm sapkprotp controls the import and export. The ABAP reports allow you to specify the RFC destinations where sapkrpotp runs.
    For lager repositories
    The programs  listed above cannot deal with the whole content repository at the same time. For a slower migration, try using the program RSIRPIRL. This approach allows you to do the migation on a live system.
    Create the new content repository on your new content server.
    Create the new content category.
    If using distribution, distribute the new documents to the new category. otherwise change redirected category for DMS_C1_ST
    Relocate using the program.

  • Moving SAP Content Server/MaxDB 7.6 to a Windows 2008 R2 Server

    Hi All.
    We are in the process of upgrading our server where the SAP content server is located.  We are going from SAP CS 6.30/MaxDB 7.6 to a Windows 2008 R2 server where we want to install SAP CS 6.40/MaxDB 7.8.  I have been following the latest manual from SAP for upgrading to MaxDb 7.8  (2010-10-05) from MaxDb 7.6 using the in-place method.
    To date we have installed MaxDB 7.6 on the server.  We restored our latest backup and performed the index checks as spelled out in the manual.  I have the database in ADMIN mode and went to run the MaxDb 7.8 install for the 64 bit window version.  THe install GUI comes up, but the Update selection is grayed out.  This tells me that the install program can not detect our existing database.  I did make sure I was running the install as Admim so I do not think that is the issue.
    This is the second time I have tried this upgrade.  The first time I did a comand line upgrade by runing the .bat file DBUPDATE.bat. We have a 110 Gbyte database and this upgrade ran in about 15 minutes, and of course when I went to openthe database it was toast.  Do not want to make the same mistake again.
    One other point, since we did a restore of the database, then the index check, we did not run a backup as the manual suggested as we felt it was not necessary.  Does the system require a backup before upgrade and that is why it does not see the database?
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    I beleive we have resolved the issue with upgrading the database, but now we are having a problem with Datbase Studio 7.8.  Before the upgrade we used Data Manager 7.6.  After the upgrade we installed Database Studio 7.8 and when we go to start it up, we are getting the Problems opening perspective 'com.sap.sdb.tools.ut.perspectives.mainPerspective'. I followed the instruction in another post Problems opening perspective in Database Studio, but we still are getting the error.
    Can anybody offer any assistance as we are getting close to the weekend when we want to do the cutover and we are not even done with our first pass at upgrading the SAP content server.
    Thanks

  • SAP Content Server Archiving strategy

    Hi,
    I have installed ECC 6.0 SR3 and SAP Content Server 6.40 recently. Content Server is contains only scanned copies. I want to propose archval strategy for the Content Server.
    Any body has document for the same please let me know.
    Thanks in advance

    hi,
    Archiving,
    There are both technical and legal reasons for archiving application data. Data Archiving:
    · Resolves memory space and performance problems caused by large volumes of transaction data
    · Ensures that data growth remains moderate so that the database remains manageable in the long term
    · Ensures that companies can meet the legal requirements for data storage in a cost-efficient manner
    · Ensures that data can be reused at a later date, for example, in new product development

  • Should I install Apache Web server to use Jakarta Tomcat Servlet engine?

    Hello,
    I have some problems and now have a question:
    Should I install Apache Web server to use Jakarta Tomcat Servlet engine?
    JTK home page is available via http://localhost:8080
    Tomcat ver 3.1.3
    Thanks.

    No, you don't need to run Apache webserver (httpd) to run Tomcat. Tomcat by default runs on port 8080, but you can set it to any port, including 80, if you have permission to do so (on *nix systems, you need root permissions to run services on any port below 1024).
    Tomcat is a webserver as well, just one that includes a servlet container and JSP processor. So it will serve your html files, images, etc (aka static content), just as well as Apache httpd, in addition to being able to run servlets and JSPs.
    Apache httpd has more options for serving static content than Tomcat, so many people prefer to use it as their main webserver and only use Tomcat as a sort of "plugin" to handle servlets and JSPs. This can be achieved through a connector. Instructions on how to set this up are on the Jakarta website.
    So you could use Apache and Tomcat combined, next to each other, or totally separated. In many cases, just Tomcat will do.

  • How to Install Coldfusion 8 64-bit on Small Business Server 2008 64-bit

    How to Install Coldfusion 8 64-bit on Small Business Server 2008 64-bit
    I ran Coldfusion 8 on SBS 2003 Premium for 6 months with no problems.  When we finally decided to cut over to SBS 2008, that’s when everything went to hell.  I tried for weeks to get Coldfusion 8 to install properly on the new SBS 2008 64-bit box.  During the course which, I found bits and pieces of information for Vista 64-bit and Windows Server 2008 64-bit installations.  There are some distinct differences, however, with SBS 2008 since it runs core Web applications like OWA, RWW and Companyweb.  After countless unsuccessful attempts, one of which completed corrupted the box, I found the solution.
    I have attempted in this white paper to detail the steps to assist others who may be in a similar situation.  I don’t make any warranty for the information, but so long as you follow the steps carefully you should be fine.  BTW, for those of you who say Adobe offers free technical support for licensed users, that’s not entirely true.  Like I said, I purchased CF8 and originally installed it on an SBS 2003 Premium box.  After we cut over to SBS 2008 and encountered problems, Adobe wouldn’t provide any technical support without charging.  Moreover, based on my initial conversations with Adobe’s technical team, no one seemed to know much about running 64-bit on SBS.
    From my understanding, only two versions of Coldfusion 8 can be installed in 64-bit: Enterprise and Developer.  The “normal” install (which I paid a grand for) can only be deployed in 32-bit mode – gee, THANKS Adobe!  By the way, in Developer mode only two distinct IPs can access the site in addition to the localhost.  Any additional IPs will result in a CFML error message stating that the maximum number of IPs have been exceeded.  At any rate, take your time and follow the steps to achieve a successful installation. 
    PRE-INSTALLATION TASKS
    Back Up SBS
    It’s always a good practice to backup your server before deploying any kind of major system changes.  Although this step is optional, I recommend it in case you need to restore your server for any reason.  Bear in mind, if your system ever gets totally corrupted, you cannot restore back from the twice daily incremental backup images alone.  You will need a full backup with system recovery information to restore.  Here are the basic steps:
    Click: Start > Programs > Administrative Tools.  Right-click “Windows Server Backup” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    Click “Backup Once” under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Choose the “Different Options” radio button under Backup Options.
    Choose the “Custom” radio button.  What we’re primarily interested in here is backing up the OS – not your data partitions or attached drives.
    Select the “SYSTEM (C)” checkbox, uncheck any others.  Also, ensure that the “Enable system recovery” checkbox is selected before continuing on.
    Under ‘Specify Destination Type’, I usually select the “Local drives” radio button and point it to a Terrabyte USB drive I use for backups.  You can point this to a tape drive, or select the “Remote shared folder” radio button if you map to a UNC path to store your backup images.  Just remember, make sure that whatever path you select can readily be accessed in the event of an emergency.  Also, make sure the “Verify after writing (recommended)” checkbox is selected.
    Under ‘Specified Advanced Option’, I usually select the “VSS full backup” radio button instead of the default since I don’t use a 3rd party backup product.  If like me you rely solely on SBS for your backups, choose the full backup option.
    Confirm everything and click “Backup”.  This process may take several hours depending on the size of your system.
    Verify ISAPI Filters:
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.
    In the center pane under IIS, double click the “Modules” icon to verify that the ISAPI native modules are already installed for IIS.  If it’s set up correctly you should see two entries:
    IsapiFilterModule              %windir%\System32\inetsrv\filter.dll
    IsapiModule                        %windir%\System32\inetsrv\isapi.dll
    If either of these modules are missing, you will need to re-install these (google for a solution).
    Set Up Development Environment
    Create a directory for your CFML files outside of the default Windows location (e.g., default is usually C:\inetpub\wwwroot\).  For the purpose of our install, I created a directory on a separate disk called: D:\DEV.
    Copy and paste your CFML files and directories into the new DEV root Web directory.  This will eventually be the directory where the Coldfusion installer places the CFIDE and CFDOCS folders. 
    Open IIS Manager and double-click the server instance in the left hand pane.  Expand the “Sites” folder.  Right-click the Sites folder and select “Add Web Site”.
    Enter a name in the “Site Name” box (e.g., “test-site”).  You will notice that the system will automatically create a corresponding Application Pool with the same name.  NOTE: this is important to prevent conflicts between the DefaultAppPool (needed for SBS Web apps like OWA, RWW, etc.) and the application pool needed for Coldfusion to function properly in SBS 2008.
    Point the “Physical Path” to the directory you created in step #1 above (e.g., “D:\DEV”).
    Don’t worry about testing the connection.  If you click “Test Settings” you may receive a warning that IIS cannot verify access to path (D:\DEV).  Don’t worry about this for the time being.
    Under “Host name”, enter a DNS path to your site (e.g., “dev.test-site.com”).  Click “OK”.
    Configure Application Pools for Installation
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Click on “Application Pools” to display the list of server application pools in the center pane.
    In the “Actions” pane on the right-hand side, click “Set Application Pool Defaults”.
    Change “Enable 32-Bit Applications” - the second item from the top – from “False” to “True”, and then click “OK”.  NOTE: if you skip this step, Coldfusion will not properly create the required mappings during the install. We will change this setting back after the installation completes – more on this later.
    Modify the application.host.config File for 64-Bitness
    Click: Start > Programs > Accessories.  Right-click “Notepad” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    Open the config file from within Notepad – default location: C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config
    Do a search and change this one line from:
    <add name="PasswordExpiryModule" image="C:\Windows\system32\RpcProxy\RpcProxy.dll" />
    To this:
    <add name="PasswordExpiryModule" image="C:\Windows\system32\RpcProxy\RpcProxy.dll" preCondition="bitness64" />
    Restart the IIS Admin service.
    Set HTTP Compression
    According to some threads I read, the http compression module can cause errors if you don’t disable it globally. To remedy this, perform the following:
    Click: Start > Programs > Accessories.  Right-click “Command Prompt” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    At the command prompt, change directory to intetsrv by typing: cd inetsrv
    Run the following command:
    C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv>appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/httpCompression /-[name='xpress']
    This will turn off HTTP compression for all sites in IIS.
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Double-click the “Compression” icon in the IIS section of the center pane.
    Uncheck all of the boxes, then click the “Apply” button under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Recheck all of the boxes, then click the “Apply” button under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Restart the IIS Admin service.  This should enable compression and coldfusion to work at the same time.
    NOTE: if for some reason you need to reverse this, run the following command from the command prompt:
    C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/httpCompression /+[name='xpress',doStaticCompression='false',dll='%windir%\system32\inetsrv\suscomp.dll']
    INSTALLATION TASKS
    Download the 64-bit installation package from Adobe – filename: coldfusion-801-wind64.exe.
    Right-click the file and select “Run as administrator”.
    Accept the terms of the License Agreement.
    If you have an Enterprise license, enter it.  For our purposes, just click the “Developer Edition” checkbox.
    Select “Server configuration” – the default radio button.
    I deselected all subcomponents and can’t guarantee that you’ll arrive at the same results if you select additional items like “.NET Integrated Services”.  It should be fine, particularly if you install documentation.  My preference was to keep the install as plain vanilla as possible.
    Select the directory path for Coldfusion to install into – default is :C\Coldfusion
    THE NEXT TWO STEPS ARE CRITICAL TO YOUR SUCCESS.  Unselect “All IIS Websites” and select the “Configure specific IIS Website or another web server” radio button.  Click “Add”, and then select your test Web site (e.g., “test-site”) under “IIS Web Site”.  Hit “OK”.
    Do NOT use the default directory path for the CF Administrator location (e.g., default path: “C:\inetpub\wwwroot”).  Instead, point the installer to your new DEV root Web directory (e.g., “D:\DEV”).  The bottom line, you want the installer to place the CFIDE directory and files within this folder, alongside your other CFML files and folders.
    Enter an Administrator password.
    Choose to Enable RDS, or not.  I enable this by preference but it is not required.  This allows you to make updates to files using a CFML editor directly vs. having to move/FTP the files over if you’re working remotely.  Opponents to this argue that it’s potentially less secure, but for a lower environment I don’t see this as a major concern.
    Confirm everything to kick off the install.
    If all goes well you should see a message at the end stating that the install was successful.  I recommend you uncheck the box that asks you to open the CF Administrator in the default Web browser after the install.  NOTE: we will open it a different way during the post-installation tasks.  The worst thing that will happen if you forget to uncheck the box is that you might receive an error that the command prompt hung – not a big deal – just close it and move on to the next (final) steps.
    POST-INSTALLATION TASKS
    Verify CF Installation:
    The installation will create a new folder in your program group: Start > Programs > Adobe > Coldfusion 8.  The default “Administrator” link will not work because it points to the wrong path: http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm. The “127.0.0.1” or “localhost” path as you may recall in IIS, points by default to the “C:\inetpub\wwwroot” directory.  Our CFIDE files, however, are located within: D:\DEV.
    To bring up the CF Administrator logon page, open up a Web browser and replace the “http://127.0.0.1” part of the path with the DNS path name to your CF environment (e.g., http://dev.test-site.com/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm).
    This should bring up the Coldfusion Administrator Login screen.  Enter in the Administrator password you created during the install to log in and configure your application server.
    Verify that your test-site renders correctly by typing in your test URL into a Web browser (e.g., http://dev.test-site.com).
    Fix Application Pool Defaults to Re-enable SBS Web Applications:
    At this point, Coldfusion Administrator and your test CMFL Web site should be working properly.  The problem is, default SBS Web applications like OWA, RWW and Companyweb will throw errors and fail to start.  Fortunately, this is easily remedied by performing the following steps:
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Click on “Application Pools” to display the list of server application pools in the center pane.
    In the “Actions” pane on the right-hand side, click “Set Application Pool Defaults”.
    Change “Enable 32-Bit Applications” - the second item from the top – from “True” to “False” this time.  This should re-enable the SBS applications, which would otherwise result in 500 errors (e.g., OWA, RWW, Companyweb, etc.).  There is no need to restart IIS.
    Open a Web browser and test that you can once again connect to OWA, RWW and Companyweb successfully.
    In IIS click to highlight the application pool for your new site (e.g., “test-site”).  In the right-hand pane, click “Advanced Settings”.  Ensure that “Enable 32-Bit Applications” – second item from the top – is set to “True” for this application pool specifically.
    Lastly, jump up and down for joy!  Hopefully now, everything is working.  Best of luck!! ..Paul D (MCP).

    First, it would be a good idea for you to specify what distro of Linux you're using, as not all are supported by Adobe.
    Second, this is probably your problem right here:
    http://askubuntu.com/questions/40416/why-is-lib-libc-so-6-missing
    In a nutshell, CF expects the 32-bit version of libc.so.6 to be in /lib, but it's probably not. You might be able to modify the installer to point to the correct location for that file, or you might be able to create a symlink to the file - but as the above link describes, creating a symlink might have negative consequences.
    As for installing CF 8 64-bit, that's only available with Enterprise, not Standard. If you want CF Standard 64-bit, you need to upgrade to CF 9.
