  • Query on integrating windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV

    hi
    I have sucessfully integrated windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV. I have query in it regarding the possible validation against the portal Database user. Can we configure such that the user comparison happens for LDAP as well as database user. Have anyone configured such a scenario?
    Regards,
    Ganesh N

    Hi Ganesh,
    this should work in principle.
    However you would need a user in Active Directory for each user in the portal database that should connect to the file server if you are using the SSO22KerbMap Module as I assume.
    In my whitepaper I have mentioned this for the internal user index_service that does only exist in the portal database.

    Hi Ganesh,
    this error message tells you that there is no user in your active directory that has the userPrincipalName xxxx.
    The SSO22KerbMapModule works as follows.
    1. It receives a SAP Logon Ticket from the WebDAV request.
    2. If valid the SAP username is extracted. In your case the SAP username is xxxx.
    3. It then searches for a user in AD. It does so using the attribute in the ini-file that has been specified to contain the SAP username. In your case the SAP username should be identical with the userPrincipalName.
    So you have to make sure that the portal user id (j_user) is mapped to the same AD user attribute  that is specified in the ini-file .
    Best regards,

    best regards

    Hi
    You need to create a RFC Destination with the details what you have, then you can create a RFC Fucntion module to read the data, according to the destination system, you have to code that, once you
    pick the data from the destination system, later you need to convert it to SAP Format.
    To trace your fm status, there are function module availabe in sap, search with http, you can find.

  • How can I search for files on an external file server (using Linux)?

    The configuration is that the mac min is connected (with other Windows XP computers) in an ethernet network. The file server is the only one running Linux. The mini mac has no problems to connect to the server and read the files, write files and create folders etc. But, because the file server is quite big, there are a lot of files and folders (size estimate in total some 350 GB). In a finder window I tried to seach a file name, but the mac does not give any result. The mouse cursor does not visibly change into occupied or so. Searching for a file on the mac is no problem as we know.
    Any help or hint what kind of program / setting needs to be used to do this would be appreciated.
    thanks
    Ueli

    Use the Find command (menu Edit) and in criteria at the right side is a plus sign to add another criteria and set it to your custom wishes.
    make a choice in results and you should be OK

  • Integrating existing file server with EP6SP9

    hello everyone
    we are implementing EP6 SP9 portal for our SBU and we need to integrate our existing file server with portal in which we can upload documents and download existing documents.
    do we need to use content management to access this file server using the file system repository manager or it can be done in some other way
    If theres an alternate way to do this, kindly explain what needs to be done.
    Kindly help
    Thanking you
    Anurag

    Anurag,
    yes, CM is the software to use for this. you could, in principle, go without CM and code the neccessary stuff on your own. But: The more funcionality you desire (think of: additional properties, search functionality, versioning ...), the more sense using CM makes. Plus you get all required user interfaces (like a repository browser) for free.

  • Passing message text from external RFC server into SAP EXCEPTION parameter

    In function module CREDIT_CARD_SETTLEMENT the following DYNAMIC function module call exists:
    ------ Send items for settlement to a RFC function -------------------
        CALL FUNCTION l_fnset
             DESTINATION l_rfcset
             EXPORTING   i_ccseth                = i_ccseth
             TABLES      t_settab                = t_settab
                         t_setexd_h              = t_setexd_h
                         t_setexd_i              = t_setexd_i
             EXCEPTIONS  system_failure          = 01 MESSAGE rfc_msg_text
                         communication_failure   = 02 MESSAGE rfc_msg_text
                         call_function_not_found = 03.
    This is the code which calls an external credit card application server.  I'm trying to figure out how, on the server side, I can return a message into the rfc_msg_text variable on the system_failure or communication_failure EXCEPTIONS.
    I’ve found several examples of this construct in ABAP code in the SAP side – but I can’t for the life of me find anything that shows how to set this up in our external server. 
    There are several SAP function modules like RFC_PING that have similar constructs – but I can’t see the compiled C code to tell what command to use to fill in that text.  I can raise the exception, just not fill in the text.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Eric,
    I do not quite understand the problem.
    Is there an external NON-SAP system, that needs to do the call?
    Within any external SAP system (inside the RFC Function Module) you can raise exceptions in the following manner:
    MESSAGE e398(00) WITH par1 par2 par3 par4 RAISING exception_1.
    Message 398 in class 00 contains only & & & & as text.
    Each & is replaced by par1 through par4.
    Suppose par1='Order' par2='1234' par3='invalid' par4=''.
    Then a message would be build like: Order 1234 invalid.
    This all would reside in the remote called function module.
    When you call this module and after any exception in the call the addition MESSAGE rfc_msg_txt was put, then the variable rfc_msg_txt='Order 1234 invalid'.
    But as already stated before, i'm not quite sure what the problem is. Shed some light to it.

  • Communication problem between external web server and SAP WebAS

    Hello Experts,
    We are having a serious problem over here where we had one external server is pushing XML string using a HTTP-POST request to our SAP WebAS server (a BSP application is handling this request). We are not able to see the request coming to SAP i.e. SAP-BSP is not receiving XML.
    Also we found that, if request is routed through another proxy server (apache tomcat server redireting the request) connected through VPN to our network, it works but if the the same server is inside our network it doesn't. Rather in that case it never hits the Apache-Tomcat server itself.
    We tried to identify the network issue but it seems it is not the network or any firewall issue. When we had a small Echo server (itu2019s a small Java server) running on our SAP machine, we could see the request coming in. So it is definitely reaching the SAP server but the SAP Web AS is not picking up. Rather what we found that if the URL is simple e.g. http://<hostname>:<port> it works but if the URL is complex like something generated by SAP incase of BSP application it doesn't.
    Any idea what is causing this issue?
    I tried to look at SMICM trace files but got nothing. Any idea where would find the trace of incoming HTTP requests to SAP WebAS?
    Thanks in advance.

  • "original file could not be found" help needed please

    Hello and help...please
    i have a new laptop, so i saved my itunes music library to an external drive to transfer it to the new machine. I uploaded to itunes with the simple 'add folder' option and all my songs appeared in itunes everything is great i thought.
    However, every single song i click on to play comes up with
    "the song "insert title here" could not be used because the original file could not be found. would you like to locate it?"
    I have searched long and hard through the itunes help etc and found nothing.
    can anyone help me? please?
    many thanks for taking the time
    phill

    for windows version, you have to check the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" in preference pane. then every time you add songs to your library iTunes will copy the original files to your iTunes library folder so you don't have to worry about the original files missing or moved.

  • Runtime Error in File Preview of RH7 - Immediate help needed!

    Dear all,
    we're working on a RoboHelp 7 project under version control.
    Today we encountered a major issue with ur project/database. When opening files in the preview window, they are displayed without error. As soon you click on a link within this file that leads to another HTML file, you get a pop-up with a runtime error message. You're asked either to debug or not. Selecting no displays a second runtime error with the same question. After also declining, you get to the selected HTML file.
    We have two major sorts of files: Chapter overview pages and topic files. Both are based on the same Style Sheet (CSS) and template. For the overview files the layout is just changed a bit when you create the file. Further there are some extra files don't use the template.
    Now I recognized some kind of logic:
    - When you open an overview-file, the two pop-ups always refer to runtime errors in line 46 and 49.
    - When you open a topic file, the two pop-ups always refer to runtime errors in line 50 and 53.
    - When you open a file that is blank and not based on the template, there's no error.
    Until now, the error never occured. But since today (or maybe last week und we didn't recognize), this error comes up even for files that were created months ago and never had an error before. They were changed today automatically when a renamed a chapter. Even within our "clean and working" backups we now encounter this error.
    Questions:
    - Can anyone explain, what a runtime error is at all?
    - My assumption is, that it has something to do with the CSS or template, but I'm not sure. What can be wrong there?
    - To what lines do the specifications in the pop-up refer to? Where can I find those lines?
    As we are in a very critical project phase, I really need your assistance for a quick and effective solution. Please help me as soon as possible!! Thanks!!

    Hi Tom
    Here is my own educated guess.
    When you have links of any type in a HTML document, a calculation has to occur at the time they are created. The application has to calculate where the linked item is in relation to the existing page. Then HTML shorthand is created to navigate. Up a folder level is ../ and up two folder levels is ../../. Stuff like that.
    Popups are a different story. While you are still creating links, these beasties are actually handled using JavaScript. So the path is supplied in the call to the JavaScript.
    As if that weren't complex enough, we now toss Headers and Footers into the mix. Headers and Footers are tied to the Master Page. The Master Page is always in the root level of the project. Links in a Header and Footers often break because of the assorted locations of HTML pages if you are using folders to organize your project. So when you create the link initially as part of the Master Page, things are dandy and as long as the topic is in the project root folder (same as the Master Page) things would likely work fine. But if that Master Page is associated with a topic inside a folder level or two down, things can go to pot in a hurry! (Where are we all headed? And what's with the handbasket?)
    Hopefully this helps shed some possible explanation... Rick
