JDI Vs NWDI

Hi all
   I am new to Netweaver 2004s !!
   But have an idea about NWDevStudio..
   Could any body say the difference between JDI and NWDI ?
Thanks
KK

well, we should actually speak about "DI", but NWDI become too fast a commonly known name, that is why it remains used in this way (NWDI).
As for the speciallity of the NWDI - what do you need? You can try the topics in the official documentation:
- this could be a good start -> http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/01/9c4940d1ba6913e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

Hi,
This is the process of Deployment
Component Build Service (CBS) builds one or more new archives in a build request. CBS notifies Change Management Service (CMS) that an automatic deployment is pending and sends it the corresponding build request ID. This ID is entered in the table TC_CMS_TCS_NOTIFY. The automatic deployment function then contacts CBS, fetches the archives, and deploys them to the runtime system. The result of the deployment is saved to the table TC_CMS_TCS_DCQUEUE.
There are 3 scenarios you might want to check.
1. In CBS WebUI see whether the requests are getting queued for the track in use. If the requests are queued then go to Visual Admin and start the CBS Service.
2. Even though you checked in and in Development you import the import is still running then you might want to check whether the Request is Queued in TCS Deployer, if the request hangs there then it is processing the request.
If it takes longer time than usual you might want to Trigger the deployment manually.
To do Manually go to http://<hostname>:<portnumber>/TCS/Deployer and login as Administrator and trigger the deployment for the specific Buildspace.
Check the below link for further details:

3. Increase the memory on the NWDI server so that request gets processed.
Hope this helps.

Transport of PCD and Content objects through JDI.

Hi all,
Pls share the views about the trasport procedure for PCD and Content objects.
Is it possible to transport PCD and Content objects through JDI?
If it is possible, could you pls share how to configure the JDI setup?
Thanks in advance,
Kishore.

Hi Kishroe,
First, there is no supported, out of the box way to handle content objects in the JDI (now NWDI- NetWeaver Development Infrastructure) With that said, since it is a repository you could export your content package. Make it a zip file or something like that and add it to the repository.
Again, I believe this is theoretically possible. I'm sure some of the other SDN members can provide an automated approach to do this.
Good luck,
John

JDI Migration - Media Selection doubt !!

Hi,
     We are doing a JDI migration from AIX to HPUX. the DB is Oracle 10.2.0.2.
   we have few confusions as we are new to netweaver..
    1. what is the difference between JDI and NWDI..(our undeerrstanding is, in 6.4 version its called JDI and 7.0 version its called NWDI).
    2. We are planning to select the NW04S SR2 DVD's to do the JDI migration, by selecting the Additional software ->System Copy ->     Oracle -> Target System -> Central System -> Based on AS Java -> Central System installation. is it correct ??
    3. If we are at a wrong selection of the DVD's for JDI, please let us know what DVD's should we select for the JDI migration..( our assumption is, if we select NW04S SR2 DVD's, and proceeed with migration then we will be doing a migration for NWDI and not JDI, if this is true please guide us with media to be selected for JDI as it is called JDI in 6.4 version)
      These are the three questions we have !!
      Appreciate your reply
   Thanks
    Sourav

Hi,
you to use the NWDI you have to install usage types:
1. AS Java - this is a must for NWDI.
2. usage type Development Infrastructure (DI), which is actually the SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (or NWDI in short).
You have to follow the installation guides for the 2004s. they are on the service marketplace: http://service.sap.com/instguides -> SAP NetWeaver -> SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) -> Installation.
when you have finally installed the NWDI, you follow the link to the post-installation tasks in order to configure the NWDI server (that is to configure DTR, CBS and CMS).
Kind regards, Jordan

Using a Portal Service

Hi,
Am trying to use a portal service in my application and calling a method,it should return me the IResourceList which am going
to iterate and publish the Resource.
Interestingly,am getting the error "Build of the project Failed" Pls Note am working on JDI or NWDI & no compilation errors
at my end.
Please find the Code below :
user =(IUser) UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUserByLogonID(request.getUser().getLogonUid());
IPortalRuntimeResources runtimeResources =PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources();
IService aService = runtimeResources.getService("customer.MyService");
customer.MyService tmp = (customer.MyService) aService;
IResourceList list=(IResourceList)Util.getMethod(filterbasepath,arraylist,user);
Any help in this direction would be highly appreciated,kindly be specific as where have i gone wrong.
Regards
Manoj

Hi Harish,
1.Other components in the par file do not have classes with syntax error.
2.deployement descriptor has correct syntax.
3.deployement descriptor has services reference to the Portal Service am using.
if i comment some part of the code say
user =(IUser) UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUserByLogonID(request.getUser().getLogonUid());
IPortalRuntimeResources runtimeResources =PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources();
//IService aService = runtimeResources.getService("customer.MyService");
//customer.MyService tmp = (customer.MyService) aService;
//IResourceList list=(IResourceList)Util.getMethod(filterbasepath,arraylist,user);
i can upload the par file,that clearly indicates that
theres some problem in using the service "customer.MyService",though there are no compilation errors.
I have even tried the alternative
IService aService = runtimeResources.getService("IMyService.KEY");--->where IMyservice is the Interface Class.
Regards
Manoj

Basic questions about NetWeaver

Hi experts,
Here am I with a big headache caused by the Netweaver concept which I can hardly understand. So, I would be grateful if you could give me some hints on these questions even if they sound foolish:
1. Is SAP-Gui an obsolete concept with Netweaver? That is, has the classical SAP-gui screen been replaced by a web site based on something like an Internet Explorer?
2. If I have a ITS attached now to a classical R/3 to convert some screens to the internet protocol, will this ITS be unnecessary once I go to Netweaver? I understood that the Netweaver WAS incorporates something like an ITS.
3. From my vague understanding of WAS, I reckon this is the name of the new "Development platform" of SAP, sort of workbench, with the difference that from now on, Java will be a possible language, as well as ABAP, for development, and also other "functionalities" are part of the kit: an internet server replacing the ITS, etc. Am I on the right track to consider WAS as a new and extended workbench?
4. All the classical R/3 modules are now part of the so-called "mySAP ERP". Right? So, let's say that mySAP ERP is the new brand which includes the old MM, PP, FI, CO, and so on.
5. I have read some threads about the ECC, but I can't get to the real meaning. Is the portal a web development delivered by SAP with some ready functionality? or is it just a basis on which we have to actually develop the functionalities? Is mySAP ERP part of the ECC? or rather, is ECC something that is connecting to mySAP ERP behind?
6. The easy-to-understand approach of a Development-Integration-Production platform in a classical R/3 schema, is it still valid with the Netweaver approach? I see so many elements in it (WAS, Portal, ECC, mySAP ERP, XI, etc) that I somehow get lost in this fuss and I can't see if Dev-Integr-Prod. is obsolete, and we need a hell of new systems to cope with it...
7. Where do the xApps fit into this tricky map? is it something to develop from the new development platform (WAS)? are the xApps a sort of RFC that we can call from an external system? what is really an xApp?
Well, that's all for now. Either I get some help from you, or my head will collapse. Sorry, but I wasn't able to get help on these issues, with an easy-to-understand vocabulary...
Thanks in advance.
Ray

Hi Ray, I'll take a stab at it.
1. Is SAP-Gui an obsolete concept with Netweaver? That is, has the classical SAP-gui screen been replaced by a web site based on something like an Internet Explorer?
Yes and No. Currently you use SAPgui to access ECC 6.0 system, which runs on Netweaver ABAP stack, which is the latest release. But I do believe that Project Muse may push SAPgui asside in the future.
2. If I have a ITS attached now to a classical R/3 to convert some screens to the internet protocol, will this ITS be unnecessary once I go to Netweaver? I understood that the Netweaver WAS incorporates something like an ITS.
I believe that is correct, the ITS is a part of the Application Server.
3. From my vague understanding of WAS, I reckon this is the name of the new "Development platform" of SAP, sort of workbench, with the difference that from now on, Java will be a possible language, as well as ABAP, for development, and also other "functionalities" are part of the kit: an internet server replacing the ITS, etc. Am I on the right track to consider WAS as a new and extended workbench?
WAS has been renamed to SAP Netweaver Appliation Server and it has two stacks. The ABAP stack which you access via SAPgui and is the technlogy layer under ECC 6.0, and the java stack which runs underneath the SAP Netweaver Portal. The NW Application Server ABAP Stack is the technology layer which includes all of the development tools and the system infrastructure. The basic components which allow the system to run. This is very simular to the "Basis" layer of eariler SAP versions, but greatly enhanced. Development done for the ABAP stack is done thru SE80 via SAPgui. The java stack is a little different, you do your development locally using NWDS and deploy your appliation to the java engine(stack).
4. All the classical R/3 modules are now part of the so-called "mySAP ERP". Right? So, let's say that mySAP ERP is the new brand which includes the old MM, PP, FI, CO, and so on.
Yes, all modules of the previous named R/3 are there. my SAP ERP also includes other bolt-on applications.
5. I have read some threads about the ECC, but I can't get to the real meaning. Is the portal a web development delivered by SAP with some ready functionality? or is it just a basis on which we have to actually develop the functionalities? Is mySAP ERP part of the ECC? or rather, is ECC something that is connecting to mySAP ERP behind?
ECC 6.0 is the core component, formerly named R/3. ECC is just one part of the mySAP ERP package. The Netweaver Portal is actually a bunch of java classes delievered by SAP which when deployed to your java stack allows for one point of entry to the users. It is a role-based frontend. You create iViews and assign them to roles and assign roles to your users. The iViews can be running pretty much any application, Web Dynpro ABAP, Web Dynpro Java, BSP, JSP, etc, etc. The are SAP Delivered business packages that you can deploy that are standard applications.
6. The easy-to-understand approach of a Development-Integration-Production platform in a classical R/3 schema, is it still valid with the Netweaver approach? I see so many elements in it (WAS, Portal, ECC, mySAP ERP, XI, etc) that I somehow get lost in this fuss and I can't see if Dev-Integr-Prod. is obsolete, and we need a hell of new systems to cope with it...
Yes, on the ABAP stack, you still have the TMS(Transport Management System), the java side also as something simular, it is called the JDI, or NWDI.(Netweaver Development Infrastucture) and it mimics the TMS on the ABAP, sort of.
7. Where do the xApps fit into this tricky map? is it something to develop from the new development platform (WAS)? are the xApps a sort of RFC that we can call from an external system? what is really an xApp?
Can't answer that one. Sorry.
Hope this was a little helpful.

DTR Permission problem

Hi,
I cannot set DTR permissions using the Eclipse plugin.
I´m Administrator and JDI Administrator (CBS.Administrator, CMS.Administrate).
In Visual Admin, Security Provider Service for the application sap.com/tcdtrenterpriseapp*dtr the following security settings are present:
DtrSecurityRole - Groups "Everyone"

Web Dynpro Diff tool

Hi,
Currently, i'm getting started with the modification of the ESS using Web DynPro. According to the instruction in both JDI and NWDI cookbok, i will need to use Web DynPro diff tool to compare new SP and modified version of the older SP. Where do i find the Web DynPro diff tool? A learning material on how to use it would be very helpful. Thanks.

Citrix and NetWeaver Developer Workplace

Hi everybody,
I was wondering how one could set up NWDW (i.e. Developer Studio + Application Server) via Citrix.
I think that this is one of the solution supported by SAP but I don't seem to grasp the whole picture here.
I'm not talking about technical details, I'd just like to understand the general ideas behind it:
- where is NWDS installed? (on the remote server and accessed via Citrix?)
- how many instances of NWDS are there on the remote server?
- how many instances of the Application Server are there on the remote server?
- If there's only one NWDS and one Application Server on the remote server, how can multiple developers work simultaneously?
Any ideas?
Ciao

Hi,
let me add some more information on this for the sake of completeness:
As of 710 NWDS this is not a problem since once you managed to specifiy the workspace based on the -data parameter, the NWDS uses 1 <workspace> for local development and another one (<workspace>.jdi) for NWDI related developments.
On 700 the situation is different. There are 3 folders from which the workspace is only 1.
Besides workspace we also have the folders .dtr and .dtc and these are as default under the C:\Documents and Settings\<user> so if someone else logs on then he won't be able to reach these folders and this causes problems once you intend to work with NWDI related perspectives like the DTR or Development Configuration perspective.
You can use the below description since there is a mistake in the note 947581 that is describing this issue.
1)The first folder is the workspace.
You can set it up by editing the shortcut of NWDS in the following way:
<path to your IDE>\eclipse\SapIde.exe -vm "<JAVA_HOME>\bin\javaw.exe" -data "<workspace folder of a given user>"
(!Example!)
D:\JDT\eclipse\SapIde.exe -vm "D:\usr\j2sdk1.4.2_09\bin\javaw.exe" -data "D:/etc/JDIWorkspace/i030853"
2) The second folder (.dtc) can be changed by editing the file under <path of your IDE>\eclipse\plugins\com.sap.java.ide\plugin_customization.ini
Add the line at the end of the file com.sap.ide.eclipse.component.provider/configPoolRoot=<workspace folder of the given developer>
(!Example!) com.sap.ide.eclipse.component.provider/configPoolRoot=D:/etc/JDIWorkspace/i030853/.dtc
3)The third (.dtr) parameter can be changed in the file vm.parameters which is in case of NW04 and NW04S:
<path to your IDE>\eclipse\vm.parameters
Add a line at the end of the file:
-Dvfs.configfolder=<workspace of the given developer>\.dtr
(!Example!)
-Dvfs.configfolder=D:\etc\JDIWorkspace\i030853\.dtr
Let me rephrase: Everything I wrote here is valid only for release 70X and lower.
I hope this helps.
Best Regards,
Ervin

ESS Create Expense Report Modification

Hi,
we are using EP70, ERP2005 and BP 1.0 for ESS and MSS,
We are using the Web Dynpro Application "Create Travel Expense Report"
The first screen is a selection screen for "Travel Scheme"
This screen is empty and you can select a travel scheme via drop down box.
Is there a way to make one entry from the drop down box the default value rather than just "no" entry?
P.S. We do NOT have NWDI in place right now
thx
hs
PPS: Points guranteed

Hi,
I believe you need to change the source code in the webdynpro application to set one of the values as default value.
You need to set up the JDI or NWDI to change the source code. Please have a look at this SAP Note if you want to set up JDI/NWDI to change the source code.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Sunil

Difference between NWDI and JDI

Hi to all,
Is there any one who can give me answer on next question.
1. What is difference between NWDI and JDI? I have got confused because I red tutorials how to configure NWDI and there are two roles that use the same UME Actions. JDI.Administrator and NWDI.Administrator that uses CBS.Administrator and CMS.Administrate actions. Is it the same? Is NWDI is the same as JDI but for NW2004s (NW7.00)?
Best Regards,
Aleksandar

Hi Aleksandar
NWDI is same as JDI but the version difference. If you just use NWDI.Administrator it should work fine.

How to set up a JDI/NWDI track??

Hi all,
i want to set up a JDI track but dont even know the basics of JDI so can anyone help me on this??i have configured JDI/NWDI on two servers.Does anyone knows what are the basic steps for setting up a JDI track or links to any docs.Please guide me..its urgent!!!
Points will be given immediately
Regards,
Ameya

Hi Ameya,
Setting an NWDI track is part of a wider process of establishing an NWDI working environment. Please follow uo <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/67/95544251dcc153e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm">this</a> for a complete tutorial.
If creating a track is all you need than have a look <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/e99618e1582d53e10000000a422035/frameset.htm">here</a> but I strongly recommend to go through the entire tutorial to get a better view.
P.S.
Why not posing it at the JDI forum?
Hope it helps,

Error when creating DC in NWDI

Hello,
I've have a installed NWDI, created a track and the neccessary dependencies in SLD and IMPORTED all needed sca's.
I could now see my track in NWDS with all dependent SC's.
When I now try to create a new DC in my SC I got the following error:
Unable to sync local path "D:\Programme\CE711SP1_IDE\NWDS_WS.jdi\0\SCs\sap.com\MDM_MAT_PR\_comp\" from DTR. DTR client layer cannot locate the resource on the server. (VFS returned null as folder Item)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi All,
I'm facing the same issue, we can connect to NWDI but when I try to create a DC in the track a similar error from the post 1 is retrieved:
DTR client layer cannot locate the resource on the server. (VFS returned null as folder Item)
We have great urgency in solving this issue.
Many thanks

Not able to create a new DC through NWDS with NWDI Developer role

Hi everyone,
My userid has NWDI Developer role assigned. I am trying to create a new Webdynpro DC under the software component defined in the configuration imported. It gives me an error after assigning the activity and pressing on Finish button.
I went through logs and found that it has some problems because I am not assigned the Lcr* role (this role should be in the NWDI Developer itself). I assigned the Lcr* role to my user id and tried to create the DC again. I am getting the same problem.
Please help.
Thanks,
Amber
