  • Issue with parallel operation of SAP NW SSO 2.0 and SNC Client Encryption (Logon Groups)

    Hi!
    One of our customers is using the SNC Client Encryption solution to ensure encryption using SNC (based on Kerberos Technology) for their SAP GUI Dialog connections. They have lots of SAP backends DEV, QAS, PRD all with the SNC Client Encryption SNC Lib installed. The profile parameter snc/identity/as contains the following value: p:CN=SAP/<ServiceAccount>@<DOMAIN>.
    Example: p:CN=SAP/[email protected]
    The customer is using one AD Service Account "SNCServiceUser" with one registered SPN "SAP/SNCServiceUser" for all systems (yes, this is not recommended... but the case).
    Important: All users use group entries in the SAP Logon (saplogin.ini). Means, for SAP logon the SNC name can not be manually configured on the SAP Front End. With group logons, the application server's SNC name is dynamically requested by the message server each time a SAP GUI connection is started. The SNC Name is greyed out in this case as dynamically obtained from the applications servers profile parameter snc/identity/as.
    Now our customer implements SAP NetWeaver Single Sign-On 2.0 within his landscape. Based on the Secure Login Server 2.0 (SP3) he likes to use X.509 based authentication to his AS ABAP backends using SAP GUI SNC while others still use SNC Client Encryption.
    Replacing the SNC Library on the AS ABAP
    The Secure Login Library 2.0 (SP3) has been installed on one of the ABAP systems and the SNC Client Encryption SNC Library (which is based on SSO 1.0) is no longer used, thus we changed the parameter snc/gssapi_lib to point to the new SNC library. We removed the old PSE.ZIP containing the keytab and created the new SAPSNCSKERB.PSE incl. the keytab and proper credentials. To ensure parallel operation, we kept the snc/identity/as value as is =  p:CN=SAP/[email protected].
    After restarting the system with initialized Secure Login Library 2.0, still the SNC client encryption works fine for existing users.
    The problem
    We created on the Secure Login Server an SNC certificate for the AS ABAP which has the following X.509 Distinguised Name Fomat: CN=SAP/[email protected] This is to avoid having to change the snc/identity/as to an "real" X.509 DN which would lead to non-working SNC Client Encryption for all the other users using SAP GUI and logon groups.
    As soon as we install the PSE via STRUST on the system the SNC Client Encryption solution stops working with error „Server refuses kerberos key exchange“.
    As part of an pilot implementation we have installed Secure Login Client 2.0 (SP3) on some test PCs. The test PC with SLC is able to perform Single Sign-On with SNC based on X.509 (incl. Encryption) to the ABAP system.
    Seems the SAP System now only tries to do X.509 based authentication thus key exchange fails. The problem is, we cannot change the snc/identity/as value because of the logon groups. If we were able to do so, we would in any case set the server identity to X.509 DN and in addition create the SAPSNCSKERB.PSE incl. keytab. This should work, as confirmed by SAP see this post.  
    Any ideas how to solve this and have both solutions in parallel?
    Appreciate any help.
    Regards,
    Carsten

    Hi all,
    we was able to fix the issue. It was an issue with the customers cluster configuration and the  $SECUDIR variable. This tricky issue leads to non working or sporadic working SNC Client Encryption...
    This was how the configuration looks before:
    Environment variable $SECUDIR is defined:
    "/ABCDEF<SID>/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec“
    sapgenpse seclogin -l -v
    running seclogin with USER="<SID>adm"
    Credentials for username '<SID>adm':
    0 (LPS:OFF):
             (LPS:OFF): /ABCDEF<SID>/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec/SAPSNCSKERB.pse
    1 (LPS:OFF):
             (LPS:OFF): /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec/SAPSNCS.pse
    After changing the $SECUDIR to "/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec“ and re-creating the credentials, it worked like a charm.
    As a result of this we can confirm, this configuration and SNC Client Encryption works with CommonCryptoLib in parallel to the SSO configuration.
    And Valerie was right with 2. SLC starting from V. 1.0 SP2 PL3 was able to convert the CN= part of the SNC Name into an SPN, was my mistake. In addition SNC Client Encryption starting from Version 1 SP1 PL1 does this also.. just to make this clear
    Thread closed hope this helps someone

    Hi ,
    I have issue with the special character in CRM web application.
    1. In CRM IC Webclient application(5.0) . i am copying and pasting some special characters in the description of the service request document. then this is saving the character as it is.
    But when i am opening the same service request in SAP CRM  ICSS(Internet Customer Self-Service) application, then the special characters are converting to different characters.
    I am not sure whether this is the right forum for this or not.
    Can anyone please suggest how can i correct this. Or is there any standard solution to handle the special characters in ICSS.

    Yes we all are. If you bring up the task manager you can kill
    appleMobileDevicehelper.exe
    appleMobileDeviceService.exe
    APSDaemon.exe
    when you do not have your ipad/pod connected. this will reduce some of whaqt I think is a memory leak in 10.5
    when you connect an ipad and restart itunes those services will re load and you will be stuck with th eissue. I would go into the ipad/pod and turn off auto synching this will help a little as well.
    we just need a new release that will address these issues

  • Performance Issue with RF Scanners after SAP Enhancement Pack 5 Upgrade

    We are on component version SAP ECC 6.0, and recently upgraded to Enhancement Pack 5.  I believe we are on Net Weaver 7.10, and using RF scanners in one plant that is Warehouse Managed.  Evidentially when we moved to EHP5, the Web SAP Console went away and we are left with ITS Mobile.  This has created several issues and continues to be a performance barrier for the forklift drivers in the warehouse.  We see there is a high use of java script, and the processors canu2019t handle this.  When we login to tcode LM00, on a laptop or desktop computer, there are no performance issues.  When we login to tcode LM00, with the RF scanners, the system is very slow.  It might take 30 seconds to confirm one item on a WM Transfer Order.
    1.)     Can we revert back to Web SAP Console, after we have upgraded to EHP5?
    2.)     What is creating the performance issues with the RF Scanners now that we switched over to SAP ITS mobile?
    Our RF Scanners are made by Intermec, but I donu2019t think that is where the solution lies.  One person in our IT Operations has spent a good deal of time configuring SAPITS to get it to work, but still it isnu2019t performing.

    Tom,
    I am sorry I did not see this earlier.
    I'm currently working on a very similar project with ITS mobile and the problem is to accurately determine the root cause of the problem in the least amount of time. The tool that works is found here: http://www.connectrf.com/index.php/mcm/managed-diagnostics/
    Isolating the network from the application and the device is a time consuming process unless you have a piece of software that can trace the HTTP transaction between host and device on both wired and wireless side of the network. Once that is achieved (as with Connect's tool) you can then you can begin to solve the problem.
    What I found in my project is that the amount of data traffic generated by ITS mobile can be reduced drastically, which speeds the response time of the mobile devices, especially with large number of devices in distribution centers.
    Let me know if I can answer more questions related to this topic.
    Cheers,
    Shari

  • Issues with BEx Reports in SAP Enterprise Portal

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing issues with BEx reports integrated in portal. Below are more details:
    Scenario 1:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'My Portfolio' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report from 'My Portfolio'. Below is the issue for this scenario:
    When I open the saved report, I get 2 error messages and 1 info message at the top of the report. They are as follows:
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS' are incorrect for parameter 'COMMAND_PROCESSING'
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'FILTER_PANE_ITEM' are incorrect for parameter 'TEXT_WRAPPING'
    Variables for characteristic Fiscal year/period[0FISCPER] cannot be processed
    Scenario 2:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'BEx Portfolio' or 'Favourites' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report and click on 'Send' button. As expected, the BEx broadcaster wizard should appear but, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'. While if I open the report (not the saved one) and click on 'Send' button, it works.
    Helpful pointers appreciated.
    Thanks
    Vikash

    HI Suman,
    I am not adding the report to favourite using browser favourite. Below is the flow:
    Run the report in portal.
    There is a 'Save As' button at the top of the report. When I click that button, I get a pop-up with 3 tabs  for saving the report.:
    Favourite
    BEx Portfolio
    My Portfolio
    save the report in the favorites or BEx portfolio tab and then open it and press 'Send' button
    BEx Broadcaster Wizard should appear but instead of that, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'.
    If I press send for unsaved report, then BEx broadcaster Wizard is shown.
    Thanks,

  • Issue with user mapping and SAP reference system

    Hello Gurus,
    I have this strange system behaviour when preparing my system for single sign-on using user mapping.
    Case 1.
    In the user management property category, I have the following defined.
    Authentication Ticket Type - SAP Logon Ticket
    Logon Method - UIDPW
    User Mapping Fields  -
    User Mapping Type - admin, user
    In the alias editor, I defined the default alias as SAP_PRD
    Result= when I go to identity management to assign the reference system (the default alias - SAP_PRD)...I do not see the system alias there.
    Case 2:
    In the user management property category, I have the following defined
    Authentication Ticket Type - SAP Logon Ticket
    Logon Method - SAPLOGONTICKET
    User Mapping Fields  -
    User Mapping Type - admin, user 
    In the alias editor, I defined the default alias as SAP_DEV
    Result, when I go to the identity management to assign the refernce system (the default alias - SAP_DEV), I see it there.
    What might be my issue? Does it mean I can't assign SAP reference if I am using UIDPW as logon method?
    Please help me.

    Hi Mahesh,
    Thanks for the feedback. I am relatively new to EP...so please I won't mind if you can guide me on how to go about this.
    This is what I did...
    I chose System Administration > Permissions
    In the PCD, I located my system with the alias, SAP_PRD
    It opened up the permission assignment area.
    Now I have these permissions set
    Administrator - Full Control
    Administrators - Full control
    com.sap.caf.eu.gp.roles.superuser - Full control
    Everyone (built in group) - Full control
    Everyone (Everyone role)- Full control
    super_admin_role - Owner
    For all the above End User box is checked.
    I can't find anyone end user group .
    Once I pick UIDPW, the alias disapperars from the reference system list.
    Please help.

  • Issues with creating EXE in LV 9 (w/ patch)

    When creating an executable in LV 9 (with the new patch installed), it is taking around 7 to 8 minutes to create the executable... where as in LV 8.5 it only took around 1 minute (same VI no changes).
    After the EXE is done I go into my build folder and find the following folders:  NI_HTML, NI_report, NI_Standard Report (these all containing actual VIs (not executables) from the above folder llbs.   This never occurred in 8.5 nor in 7...what's going on here?  I've got a few customers waiting on the EXE and am just stalled due to this.

    This is a joke right?  "cleaner method of distribution"? 
    So I have to do more work to upgrade NI's lower level LLBs in LV 9 when in the 1st place I paid NI to upgrade from 8.5 to 9... doesn't seem close to an upgrade (in regards to plug & play quality) to me!  The resource page that supposedly shows you how to fix this issue is vague!  ???????   Geesh.
    Maybe this is a better way to do things with the "Object Oriented Program" & Classes... though, for a someone only a few years deep in LV...this is not efficient at all (NI is going to start killing it's marketable value if they make this any more difficult).
    "Solution:
    The Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.3
    released with LabVIEW 8.6 was rewritten using LabVIEW classes and
    LabVIEW Object Oriented Program. Because of these changes and the
    improvements in performance, there are some files that currently are
    added explicity to the build directory. Therefore, the behavior is
    expected and the executable will run without problems. In a pursuit of
    a cleaner method of distribution when configuring the Build
    Specifications for executable, all the generated folders can be placed
    into one support directory."

    Hello Deepak,
    Thanks very much for your prompt reply to my problem.
    I tried to do what you mentioned in your reply to me, but still could nt manage to get the OC4J component up and running. We suspect that it may be some installation issue and we are blowing up the existing installation to make a fresh one on a new machine.
    Will keep your suggestions in mind , they really help me out and am learning :-)
    Have a great day and thanks once again !

  • Smart form printing issue with LOCL printer and SAP printer

    Hi,
    The issues are as follows:
    1. the top portion of the Invoice and PO does not print when using the SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
    2. the shaded areas of the Order Confirmation and Invoice are black when printing to a SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
    In an attempt to correct the printing issue is was suggested that we change the SAP printer device type from HPLJ4 to POST2. This did address the problem where the shaded areas were black but then we received reports that other reports printed "garbage". Its possible that using POST2 device type causes issues when printing to HP compatible printers.
    Apparently all the testing was done using the SAP printer LOCL and not the SAP printer name and SAP spool system. LOCL uses the SAP GUI and Windows system to produce the output. Our production users at the plant site and Toledo are using SAP defined printers with the device type of HPLJ4. HPLJ4 is our standard here as OC for our printer definitions and we have HP compatible printers installed in our Toledo location and all of our remote sites. We need to be able to correctly print the Invoices, Purchase Orders, Sales Order Confirmations on our SAP printers.
    What can be done to the reports to allow them to print on our HPLJ4?
    Thanks,
    Babu

    Hi Prathap,
    Check the background shading of the windows of the Smartform where you get the black boxes. If it is set something like this:
    Color: White
    Saturation: 100%
    this can be the problem.
    I know it is strange but some black and white printers cannot handle this setting. They only know one color black so the ignore the color setting and just take the saturation 100% setting.
    The reason it works with local and device type SAPWIN is that the print data is created in Windows and sent to the printer as graphic.
    Please change the shading for window MAIN -> tab 'Output Options' to:
    Color: Black
    Saturation: 0%
    and this should resolve the problem.
    Then create a new spool and check if the problem is resolved. See SAP Note #400050.
    Regards,
    Prabhu

    Hi Randy ,
    Ntdll.dll file is a file created by Microsoft that has a description of "NT Layer DLL" and the file contains NT kernel functions.
    Considering you have performed a system health scan and there is no problem found .There is still a possibility that the installation of this program has suffered a corruption though there is no error found during installation .
    Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall it to have a check ? Please ensure you have got the latest version of this program .
    Meanwhile I found a similar symptom and the OP has resolved it ,it may be helpful to you .

  • Performance Issue with Webi report uses SAP BI Query as the data source

    Hello.
    I have created a Webi ad-hoc report which connects to a SAP BI query through BO OLAP universe.
    The layout of Webi is the exactly the same as the BI query.  There are filters in the Webi to restrict the number of data extraction, but even with data result of 5000 rows, it took about 30 seconds.
    If I execute the BI query with the same filter restriction, it tooks less than 10 seconds.
    It seems that large percentage of time is consumed at the MDX part.
    Is there any tuning method that could speed up the process time of MDX?

    Hi,
    please take a look here:
    [https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1142664] (Look under related notes)
    It includes references to various performance improvements of the MDX interface. From what I saw there it is advisable to upgrade your SAP BI (7.0)  up to at least Support Package 21 (you are currently on SP 15).
    This may also be interesting for you: There is a new Fix Pack 1.4 coming out for BOBJ XI 3.1. Combined with the related SAP Enh.Pack (not sure about the version of this one) should also improve WebI performance. This fix pack is not yet officially released though but it should not take look.
    I recommend that you try the upgrade to Support Package 21 first.
    BTW it is also advisable to take a look in the results of your MDX query (e.g using the MDXTEST transaction). You should make sure that your query is indeed restricted as expected. Sometimes the results you see in SAP native reporting tools (e.g. BEx Analyzer) differ from those returned from the MDX component, depending on the way variables/restrictions where defined in the query designer. It is all about making sure that there is no apples/oranges comparison here.

  • Print issue with splwow64.exe

    We have an application (Acomba 9.57 32-bit) that is sequenced by APPV 5.0 SP2.
    Users cannot print inside the software. Also, when the application is started, we cannot print in Adobe Reader or in any applications from Office 2010 32-bit.
    By executing the application, it creates a process called «splwow64.exe». It seems to be inside the «bubble» and makes printing not working.
    We found out that opening the printer dialog from Word or Adobe Reader before launching the virtualized application, it calls «splwow64.exe» and the application (Acomba) can now print.
    Is it possible to make the virtualized application uses a non-virtualized «splwow64.exe» ?

    Hi,
    Finally the problem comes from HP Printer Status notificati​on Pop-Ups (SNP) in the Universal Printer Driver. Enable or disable COM isolation mode doesn't make a difference. As said previously, the splwow64.exe process opens when the Appv application is
    lauch. When the Appv application (32 bits) prints to the UPD queue, the splwow64 process doesn't seems to look at the HP UPD registry keys under the current user profile. Instead, the Appv apps create new registry keys in the user profile "bubble".
    There is one particular key that broke the printing:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hewlett-Packard\HP SSNP\SSNPHwndId
    This key is recreate under user "bubble". If this key is deleted in the "bubble", the printing works. But every print jobs recreate that key, so we need to delete again. Strange, but the SSNPHwndId value is the ID of HP Printer Status notificati​on
    Pop-Ups (SNP) instance and is NEVER the good one in the "bubble". Everytime the key is recreate, the ID change.
    The workaround for now is to disable HP SNP in the printer queue. We get the default print notification window, that is fine. But we are curious if we can do something or is just a bug in appv.
    We did all tests with a plain Windows 7 x64 SP1 up to date, latest HP UPD driver. Just in case, we leave this computer outside the domain to be sure no GPO is applied.
    Thanks
