JSF Tomcat to SAP migration problems.

Hello everyone,
I'm working on trying to deploy our current application to the SAP AS. Currently the application is in .war format and runs fine on Tomcat 5.0.
I've followed the instructions that are posted in the following blog /people/michael.esslinger/blog/2006/01/09/javaserver-faces-on-web-as, and was able to re-create the WAR and EAR files to deploy. The application is deployed, but I run into this error at startup:
Initialization of servlet <JavaServerFaces> failed!
The error is: java.lang.NullPointerException: nullnull
followed by
Warning occurred on server 3313950 during startApp sap.com/apriori_ear : Initialization of servlet [JavaServerFaces] failed. Check the init() method of the servlet. Error is: [java.lang.NullPointerException].
I've researched into the NullPointerException problem on multiple websites, and made changes to my web.xml according to the walkarounds to the same problem from the people with different AS, however none of those seem to make the error to go away.
If anyone could provide a guidance as to what might be causing this error, I would greatly appreciate it.
Regards,
Cyril

Hi,
im having the same problem using a webapplication with velocity templates based on struts.
is there a kind of incompatibility of J2EE Engine 7.00 to velocity?
Or did you find a resolution for your problem?
thanks!

Filenet Archive to SAP Migration - Problem with DMS_KPRO_CONVERT2

Hi there
We seem to be having an issue with a Filenet RFC to SAP Content Server migration.
We run the report DMS_KPRO_CONVERT and eveything seems to run fine.
When we run DMS_KPRO_CONVERT2 to move the files, we seem to pick up an error:
File /saparchive/DV2/username (where username is my username) cannot be opened
In looking at what is happening, it seems to save the file to the filenet archive exchange directory as the username (with no file extension) however it seems that the system has problems accessing this directly to check the file in to the new repository again and fails.
If I manually check out the file and check it into the sap content server, there is no problem so it doesn't seem to be an issue that either the SAP content server or the filenet server is not accessible.
Any ideas what the issue could be?
Regards,
Athol

Hi Athol,
You have marked this question as answered so can you please help me How you have overcome this issue?
Do we have to run both DMS_KPRO_CONVERT and DMS_KPRO_CONVERT2 reports while migrating DMS documents from Content server to other archive server?
Thanks in advance!
With Regards,
Ajay

JSF & Tomcat 5 session problems

I am implemeting a web application using JSF and tomcat authentication. The problem is that tomcat is losing the session when I hit refresh on any of the pages which are marked as havign a security constraint.
e.g. you go to index.html -> takes you to login.jsp (as you need to log in first), you log in successfuly and go to index.html, you hit refresh and get taken back to login.jsp.
Any help would be much appreciated.
If anyone has implementign an app using tomcat authentication and jsf, I would be grateful if they could tell me how they are managing to overcome this issue.

I have a similar question, but not about session timeout, but managing the data within your session. In our previous homegrown JSP Model 2 Framework, we had various methods in place to cleanup the session for a page (essentially allowing you to cleanup the managed beans after you were done with a page). Due to constant activity, the sessions never timeout, but there is "dead" data in the session. How would you do this in JSF? For example, lets say you go through a wizard set of screens, where once complete, you don't want the managed beans to exist in the session anymore. Where would you tap into the JSF lifecycle to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Photoshop/Elements to Revel Photo Migration Problem!

What happened to my Photoshop/element photos? They were supposedly migrated, but I don't see them! I have no albums in my Revel account.I had a paid subscriiption and it was cancelled back in or around February, and told that the photos would be moved over to REVEL...Can anyone help me to get them back?

First, thanks Pattie for following up with me. I am going to check my backed up hard drives to see if my photoshop materials are on them. It will take me a few days, as I have only small amounts of time to research it at this time. maybe a break will come in a day or two for a determination.

Michael-
Is it possible you logged into Photoshop.com with a different email, or is it possible that you did not set up your Elements to sync with Photosho.com? These are the two main reasons users can not find their files.
The Photoshop.com account created in 2009 with the email you use to log in to this forum has no files in it, and therefore, nothing migrated to the Revel account with the same login. You do have a Revel account with the same login, but it is also empty since nothing migrated.

Can anybody send me the SAP Migration Template

Hi,
My client currently uses two SAP instance (likely 4.6c and 4.7).
As part of migrating two system to one system, I badly and urgently need of the following documents...
1) How the data migration will happen.(Master data, Transactional data..Number range..._)
2) Do any body have SAP Migration Template.
3) Any Q & A db for this migration activity
Regards

Hello Satish
ABAP-OO is by no means different from other object-oriented languages. Thus, you can take a book like the one for the <b>Java certification exam</b>. Having read and understood this book you are well prepared for any interview question.

SAP Migration

Hi All,
we have SAP migration/data center move coming up. Can you please let me know what do I need to take care of the things from PI perspective? I mean the Pre and Post I mean t Ours is PI7.0 and mainly lots of file/proxy/JMS scenarions. what is the impact on the web dispatcher?
i have searched the forum but did not get much info.
Thanks a lot in advance
guest

Before moving to new data centre i hope your team has estimated all risks and efforts. as prateek mentioned network compatiblity is major issue and most of the communication channels(File,JDBC,JMS,SOAP) will face errors . so i would suggest you to prepare check list with IP's used in communictaion channels and check with data centra migration team what will be the new ip for the same.
Request them to fix all network issues reamiining evrything works as expected.

Raj

Modification Dynamic Rule - SAP Migration - Quality Level

Hi Experts!!
Could you tell me if I can have the same quality level for one material when I do a SAP Migration? For example, currently we are working in the release 4.7 and my quality level for a specific material is in the step n. 6 and our total cycle are 10 steps. My doubt is when I will be working in the new version (5.0) I can start my quality leve from step n. 6? Or is it mandatory to start from step n. 1 again?
I don´t know if my doubt is clear but I would like to thank you for help me in this issue.
BR
Valdevair

No when you transfer data from one client to other or in SAP Migration,Quality level will never be as that of the old.It will reset no doubt.
What you can do is
1.Create all master data like DMR with Task list etc
2.Get the database of old system with current quality level with combination of Vendor-Material.
3. Run the QDL2 with some LSMW for combination of the Vendor & material.
4.Reset the level to desired level.
I hope this will add some value

Is it in R/3 Standard or is it an add-on tool?
I can't find any information about this tool on the SAP websites.
Anybody with experience with this tool?
Thanks
Franz

Hi Omkar,
I am also looking for more information around this tool. Is it possible for you to provide some docs or even links wherein I could find this information. Also if you could help me to understand
If a client need to use SAP MWB, for what specific product the licence should be required .In other words For using this MWB , can be have a license of only this or it will come along with some other products
What kind of resource skill set is needed to use this tool. Ex ABAP,PI, knowledge of JAVA or is it purely functional.

JSF - Tomcat security...what is the best choice for a high activity site

JSF - Tomcat security...what is the best choice for a high activity site
The JDBCRealm is not multithreaded so what are options for high activity site??
I would like to have Apache as front end doing load balancing, Tomcat as server and JSF.
All ideals and suggestions please.
Thanks
Phil

One more question.
Since Tomcat has this setup.
create table users (
user_name varchar(15) not null primary key,
user_pass varchar(15) not null
create table user_roles (
user_name varchar(15) not null,
role_name varchar(15) not null,
primary key (user_name, role_name)
It seems like a huge pain to keep a user with every role. What happens when you have 500,000 users???
Also, the authentications on every page....would it be easier to login once and setup a session bean check that on with the page header ??
Thanks
Phil

Strange legacy data migration problem to SAP CProjects

Dear all,
I am new to CProjects and currently working on migrating legacy data to CProjects through XML. I am facing some strange problems when migrating project data with multiple phases. If the project already exists in Cprojects, the XML import transaction hangs indefinitely and a timeout exception is thrown. While on the other hand, if I upload a new project (with same set of phases), it is readily imported without any problems.
Kindly help!
Thank you all!

Hi Vivek,
If the project already exists, the system creates a simulation from the imported data. You then need to move the simulation to your operational project by performing a reconcilliation. You can't simply overwrite an operational project via an import.
I have included some links below from SAP help which may help (cProjects 3.1).

Connection pool + db2 + tomcat 5 migration problem

I succeded in using connection pooling in Tomcat 4.0.x and IBM db2 6.xx and 7.xx.
Now I am trying to use Tomcat 5 (released with netbeans 3.6) and I have some problems.
I migrated the context information from server xml to context xml, but I have a username-password problem
<Context docBase="D:\j2sdk_nb\NetBeans3.6\progetti\Pegaso2" path="/pegaso2" reloadable="true">
<Resource auth="Container" name="jdbc/pegaso61" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
<ResourceParams name="jdbc/pegaso61">
<parameter>
<name>factory</name>
<value>org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>driverClassName</name>
<value>COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>url</name>
<value>jdbc:db2:pegaso61</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>username</name>
<value>userxxxx</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>password</name>
<value>passxxxx</value>
</parameter>
</ResourceParams>
</Context>
When running my servlets, i get this error:
Exception in PoolDB2Connector.getConnection():org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory, cause: [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1403N The username and/or password supplied is incorrect. SQLSTATE=08004
So it means ( I think !!) that the web-application i getting the right driver ( i got a db2 error) but is having problem with username and password.
I am using getConnection() method ( with no argouments) in my PoolDB2Connecto class (according to the documentation the getConnection(user,password) method is not supported)
I have a parallel installation of netbeans 3.5.1 (tomcat 4.0.6) with the same parameters (username, password, url...) and is still perfectly working
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Andrea

OK, I found the problem !
It is not due to any configuration issue, but it is due to a BUG in tomcat 5.xx
I reproduced the problem with mysql db server other than db2 db servver.
The problem is the presence of the $ sign in the users' s password !!!!
Probably the xml parser rading server.xml introduce some error finding $ sign.
The problem is still present in the 5.028 version of tomcat.
If i modify user's password REMOVING $ sign, everything is OK
Perhaps $ sign should be escaped (?!?)

Migration problems with Tomcat 4.1.10. Please help.

Product:           Java Web Application

Hi,
     When we tried to migrate our application from Tomcat 4.0.4 to Tomcat 4.1.10, we found that the relative path references like ../xyz/ab.jsp are not properly interpreted by Netscape and the url seen on the address bar is something like this (http://www.sww.com/../xyz/ab.jsp. Also dynamic jsp forwarding support seems to have changed. While forwarding, the dynamic parameters attached are automatically url encoded. We have tested our application on Tomcat 4.0.4, there were no such issues. Since we have used these sort of things in many places in our application it will be difficult for us to change in all those places. Can anybody tell us what we can do about it?
thanks in advance,
Srikanth. S.

Hi,
http://www.xyz.com/swiz/test.jsp:
<%
response.sendRedirect("../sebase/common_login.jsp");
%>
When I run http://www.xyz.com/swiz/test.jsp with the above code, the url is displayed http://www.xyz.com/swiz/../sebase/common_login.jsp in Netscape address bar when the application is run on tomcat 4.1.10. With Internet explorer and opera, it reads http://www.xyz.com/sebase/common_login.jsp. But on Tomcat 4.0.4, there is no problem even with Netscape. Since we are tracking the urls in many places in our application, we are having problem because of the above said type of url interpretation.
thanks in advance,
Srikanth. S.

HELP PLEASE: Tomcat 3 - Sun ONE Migration Problems

Hi everybody. We are new Sun One users. We are trying unsuccessfully to migrate our tomcat application to this environment. in order to deploy it we have created a WAR file from the Netbeans Ide and we are trying to load it into Sun One AS... but it seems there is something wrong with the process becouse we don't have access to the defined jdbc resources. Any help would be very apreciated... and please, excuse my English.

Thanks a lot of for your fast answer, but we haven't don't too much progress...
dbping shows a message about "java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: setdataSourceName"
wich probably means mysql driver isn't fully implemented. anyway i will try
to describe the steps we make to create de pool hoping you will be able to
help us...
That's what we do:
     - first, we create a Connection pool:
          name -> MySQLPool
          database vendor -> Other
          datasource class -> com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource
serverName -> localhost
portNumber -> 3306
user -> test
password -> test
databasename -> jdbc:mysql://localhost/pol
datasourcename -> pol
     - then, we define the resource:
          jndi name -> jdbc/jdbc-pol01
          pool name -> MySQLPool
          data source enabled -> true
     - in the web.xml of the application we got (just before /webapp):
          <resource-ref>
          <description>DB Connection</description>
          <res-ref-name>jdbc/jdbc-pol01</res-ref-name>
          <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
          <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
     - and we obtain the connection with a chunk of code like this:
ctx = new InitialContext();
dsName = "java:comp/env/jdbc/jdbc-pol01";
ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup(dsName);
con = ds.getConnection();
If we don't write the resource-ref element at web.xml it fails at the lookup
step (not finding the resource). but when we add the element the appserver
claims "Error loading new module in virtual server: javax.naming.InvalidNameException: Real jndi name cannot beempty for jdbc/jdbc-polds.
We don't know what to do and the death line is comming here fast... any help
would be very much apreciated.
Thanks in advance, good karma.

Eclipse Tomcat Hibernate Struts - JDeveloper OC4J migration problem.

In my current project, everybody uses Eclipse and Tomcat as development environment. I decide to try JDeveloper in this project. Not that this configuration works with eclipse WPT.

There might be a problem with the OC4J not finding the hibernate library you are trying to use.
Try setting the library also in the tools->embedded OC4J preferences.
