64 bit SAP to 32 bit External Oracle Database connectivity failing

Dear All,
We are trying to connect to an external Oracle database thru DBCON method. We are able to connect to Oracle server from our IDES server which is a 32 bit server, but when we are trying to connect our development server which is a 64 bit server, the connectivity is failing.
we copied the correct 64 bit *.lib file to the SAP server but still same result. We are getting the error message - Work Process restarted. Session terminated.
the Oracle server we are trying to connect is 32 bit, can this create some problem ?
kindly any one help us in this reagrd.
thanks in advance,
Saurabh.

Hi Eric,
thanks for the advice but I am a bit confused as where to execute that sqlplus command/query ?
in the Oracle server or from SAP and what does system/password@DEV means ??
can you elaborate on this please.
here i would like to add that we have connected to the external Oracle server using linked server approach of MS SQL (our SAP default database) and so our connectivity is happening till SQL level i.e. I am able to connect to the Oracle and query it using OpenQuery syntax. the problem is appearing when I am trying to connect from the ABAP level.
kindly suggest as to what can be the solution of this issue.
thanks

Service Desk - Solution Database - Solution retreival

I am trying to setup solution database for service desk.
1. I have set up TREX on the same host
2. Connected ABAP and TREX through a TCP/IP RFC
3. Completed configuration for the solution database using the available wizards
4. CRM_SAF_TOOL- all checks show greens
I am able to create a solution in a transaction using the "create solution in solution database" link.
My issue is:
When I go to another transaction and try to search for a available solution I do get get any results of the search. The short text used of both the transaction for which the solution was created and the transaction from which I am searching the SDB are the same.
What am I missing?
Thanks

CRM Solution Database Attachments

We are creating problems and solution in the CRM (5.0) solution database. I can attach documents to the different solutions, but if I want to attach the same document to 10 solutions I need to do it 10 times. When the document changes I will then need to update all 10 solutions.
Is there a way in CRM to create one document and link it to multiple solutions so that I will need to update the document one time when it changes?
Thanks
Tom

Dear Vikas,
Kindly check C13_BB_Config guide as service marketplace.
It says in section 3.1.5.2.3 on page 57, the below mentioned paragraph.
3. On screen Create Problem maintain the following data:
Be sure that the descriptions of the following problem(s) and solution(s) are defined in all languages that you want to use (e.g., in the E-Commerce Internet Customer Self-Service).
4.Choose Enter. The default parameters are filled; please also see the NOTE following this description.
5.Enter the problem description listed in the box below. The first line should not exceed 40 characters, for this is like a short description of the problem that will be displayed in the first line of the hitlist in the search.
hope this helps

Archive Link and external URL Link

Hi,
we use Archive Link, NO own documents (like CV01N,..). We want to define different document types (oac2) and link them to via url to an external webserver, the user should see the doc in the normal attachment list.
Doc Typ    url
DOC1        http://www.xsfd.wer/show?...
DOC2        http://www.ssdfs.ver/show?
In oac0 (definition content rep) there is an subtyp called "URL", looks like it could be this kind of rep? All solutions and hints I found where based on DMS/KPRO not ArchiveLink. I don't want to use link to external Document via GOS.
Regards,
Christian

Dear all,
no, I found no solution to access automatically! And I was not able to find a definition of the "URL" Repository.
Best regards,
christian

check SAP Note 894884.

You better develop on another development portal where restarts do not affect the end users.

Setup solution database - "2007 index does not exist"

Hi all,
after setting up the solution database following the Implementation Guide on a Solution Manager 7 SP 19 system, I created some test problem and solution articles and linked them.
When I try to do now a full compilation for the first time via SAF Diagnosis, Goto > Indexes, then the error message "2007 - index does not exist" comes up.
So, I checked the customizing and did the customizing again. I assigned the Knowledge Base SDB to a higher level than its sub knowleged bases SDB Problems, SDB Solutions like this:
SDB
- SDBATTACHEMENT
- SDBICS
- SDB PROBLEMS
- SDB SOLUTIONS
- SDB SOLUTIONS DOC
Anyway, the same error message
I checked some threads but it didn´t help so far.

Did anyone solved this issue?
How can I activate the index?
Any hints/ ideas are highly appreciated.

Linking to an Access Database (accdb) - calculated field in query

Using Crystal Report v 14 we have a problem linking to an Access 2010 database (accdb file format).
We created a query in the Access database with a calculated field that we want to use to link with Great Pllains database. We can see the query using the database expert and the OLEDB (ADO) data source. The problem is that the calculated field in the Access query does not show in the link manager.
What is the best wat to link an Access table that has a job number containing hyphens (111-222-333) with the other database that has the job number stored without hyphens (111222333)? Why does our query solution not work?

Hi,
I'm not sure if this can be handled at the Database query level, however this can surely be handled from the report level.
You would need to insert a subreport with Great Pllains as its datasource. The Main report's data source would be the access table.
Next, in the Main report you would need to create a formula to remove the hyphens from the string and convert it back to number. Use this formula:
tonumber(replace(,"-",""));
You can then palce this formula in the details section/group section (which ever is applicable) and then link the subreports's job number field with this formula field. A record selection formula is automatically added in the subreport when you do so.
Also, make sure the sub-report is place in the same section this formula field is placed in, otherwise you can get unexpected results.
Hope this helps!

Does my solution database need a designated TREX

Hello all,
I'm about to setup a new SD environment for a client.
They want a solution database, and already have a few trex instances on their ECC environment.
So these are already in use.
Can I use these nonetheless for my Solution Database?
Or should I install a new one on my SolMan machine?
regards,
David

Hello David,
TREX can be installed directly on the Solution Manager system or externally from the Solution Manager system, much like the Solman BI can be installed locally or on a BW system.
I hope this answers your question.
Regards,
Paul

Links to external files do nothing after being burned to disk

I built a product catalog a while ago in CS4 and now I've had to edit it in InDesign CS5. With InDesign CS4, everything worked fine. The files were linked and then all the file were burned to disk, all the files worked on the disk (links, etc). I have since edited the files in InDesign CS5. I build the catalog, created all the links (interior within the same pdf, links to external pdfs and other file types). Everything works on the computer but somehow fails after being burned to disk.
My sequence was like this:
Set up product catalog last year with links and files, everything was fine and worked as expected.
Opened the file, made my edits.
Made links between the pdf's pages and from the pdf to external pdfs and videos etc. All of these links work in the pdf.
Burn the files to a disk
Some of the old links work
All the links within the main pdf work
None of the new links to external files work. I click the link and nothing happens. The paths are exactly the same as the previous version
I have tried:
Examining the links, everything is based on pseudo relative paths (last year it worked fine)
Burning the disk on a Mac and a Windows XP
Please help. Any and all help is very much apprecitated.

I figured it out.
I created the links in InDesign by making an interactive link to a file. When I open the file in Acrobat, the links work fine over the network. I burn to disk and the links no longer work.
Problem: At some point, InDesign changes the "open file" hyperlink command in InDesign into a URL webpage request in Acrobat.
Solution: So basically, I now have to go into the file in Acrobat and change all the buttons from "open web link" to "open file." It's only a product catalog with about 1,200 links that's due today.

Please Advise : Solution database

Hi group,
We are on the CRM 2007, i developed a small poc for the solution database and everything is working ok.
Now before going for a full fleged solution database creation i would like to know if the solution database can be transported.We are currently in the development server hence if it has to be created in quality and production as well then we better do it in quality itself.

Raj
