Mysteriously missing documentation netweaver 2004

Hi
I have a legacy sap system (nw2004, aix 5.2, oracle 9.2, Tivoli backups) and we've recently come to the conclusion that we'd be buggered if we had to restore it from backup as no-one here has any experience of it. So we're setting up a learning server to do a similar SAP installation on to so we can put some pretend data in it, back it up to tivoli, destroy the data and restore)
should be simple? unforutnately the master guide constantly refers to "installation guide - SAP Web Application Server ABAP on AIX: Oracle" which we must download to see how to do the install. but on the NW2004 installation guide page this document does not exist and neither does anything like it.
does anyone know if there are archived copies available somewhere or if it's called something else these days. As a humble oracle DBA I find SAP stuff inpenertrable enough as it is without them hiding the documentation!
help! don't make me put a call in - they get annoyed when I put a call in about something that's not actually a bug

Hi Sarah,
It seems there is such guide; try the following:
1. Go to [https://websmp210.sap-ag.de/nw04installation]
2. In the "SAP Web AS" node near the bottom of the page, choose the "SAP Web AS 6.40 SR1 and Related Documentation" link.
3. Now that you are on the right page for installation guides, choose "Oracle" in step 1, and then the AIX guide you need.
Hope this helps,
Rosen

Problem with ejbs in Netweaver 2004s-Class not found exception

Hello,
I have a webdynpro project(Newtweaver 2004s) referring to a stateless session bean. I created an ejb and defined two public parts - part 1 contains EJB components and part 2 contains some Exception classes I refer to in my webdynpro project. I added these parts to my webdynpro project as dependencies for compile and runtime. I am able to compile and deploy the webdynpro project without any issue but I get runtime errors saying the following:

I did not have any issues when the code was running on Netweaver 2004 but now it does not seem to work when I migrated to 2004s. Can anyone please advice me on what the problem might be ?
Thanks,
Rama

Hi Harsha,
Thanks for your quick reply.
Trying to figure it out by comparing JRE versions but still no result. I have found one problem is that
when Gantt is loaded , Java in control panel loads all the Applets requried in to its Resources.
These Resources are missing for the user for whom the Gantt error is produced.
Loaded Resources can be found in the below Path :
ControlPanel -> Java-> General Tab -> View Button -> select Resources in Show .
So, How to load these resources ??? . Is there any setting to do that ???

Thread c)
not applicable to me

Hi all
I've read your entrys.
Saw that the solution is missing.
It can be found in the manuals:
1. Download the "Registry Clean Tool for SAP NetWeaver 2004s ABAP" and use it.
2. Download the latest Version of "SAP NetWeaver 2004s ABAP" and un-rar it.
3. Install the "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" an activate it.
4. Retry to install.
Summary:
So the error 200 was caused for the first time from trying an installation without a Loopback Adapter, and after that from trying to re-install without cleaning the registry.
Now its working fine.

I had been playing with the
SAP NetWeaver 7.0 ABAP Trial Version which has

Is there a trial version for me to download and play with to learn

CTS+ for Xi 3.0 Netweaver 2004(640) with Netweaver 2004s(700) TMS domain

Has anyone had success implementing CTS Plus for Xi 3.0? The documentation says the loose coupling is possible as long as the TMS doman is on a NW 700 system.
When I was configuring "Activate Deployment Service" (page 35 of How to Guide) I get the message that the command TMS_CFG_CHECK_DEPLOY_USER is an unknown function.

Which patch to begin with SAP netweaver 2004s - BI 7.0

Hi every body,
I have some questions on this new BW release.
1)Which patch could correct the most problems on BI 7.0?
2)Do the configuration of instal an 7.O with using the 3.5 functionalities, means that we have not the 7.0 bugs on the new objects (DTP, datastore, ...)because we do not use them ?
3)In an upgrade configuration, do it exist a tool or anything which permit to upgrade, for example ODS into Datastore or update rule into DTP and so on ?
Thanks a lot for your answers
best regards
Ulrich LARCHER

Hi Ulrich,
ad 1.)
We (SAP) recommend to start with SPS7, which greatly improves stability especially in the frontend area. For the backend feature, you could easily go with SPS6.
ad 2.)
pretty much, yet there might be some hiccups. In general, most customers with a technical upgrade (upgrade to SAP NetWeaver 2004s, yet using mainly BW 3.5 features) do not report too many issues.
ad 3.)
for your examples given, there are kind of migration tools. A former ODS Object will automatically be an DataStore Object; a DTP can be created with an update rule as template starting from SPS7 (please be aware that the conversion of a routine can only happen on a best guess base - you will have to check the results in case of extensive / complex ABAP routines). In general, you will also find an extensive description about the migration support tools for SAP NetWeaver in the SPS7 version of the documentation. We have included a dedicated chapter in the technical operation manual (TOM) for most of the features that are affected by migration.
Cheers

Netweaver 2004s ABAP or JAVA?

I downloaded the 2004s preview with ABAP app server, but noticed two other distributions. One was full Java and the other express Java.
In the Java distributions, is there still an ABAP development environment? Or are the distributions with J2EE using Java instead of ABAP?
Sorry if this question is too "green".
Thanks,
Tim

Hi Smith,
I dont think we have the ABAP development enviornment in the JAVA distributions provided.
The links below will give you fairly a good idea about SAP NetWeaver 2004s:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/57/a21f407b402402e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
/people/sap.user72/blog/2006/02/11/sap-netweaver-2004s--where-is-it-really-documented
and as i just saw the previous reply to your post which said that the sneak preview is with both java and abap stack.i have a small info for you regarding the same.
SDN recently released 2 Sneak Preview products:
- SAP NetWeaver 04 SP15 Full Java Edition
- SAP NetWeaver 04s Full ABAP Edition (with Web Dynpro for ABAP)
for XI we need both the Java and the Abap stack and not just having them individually because of which you cannot use it for XI.That is, the Sneak Preview products contain either the JAVA or the ABAP stack but not both together.
The link below i guess will also help you learn more about the Sneak Preview products:

I hope I have answered your query.

Approach in working with NetWeaver 2004s BI Business Content

Hi,
I was able to find the Netweaver 2004s BI Help documentation for the business contents available for the Industry Sector that I am working on. It is using the correct terminology, for example, instead ODS it is saying Datastore object. Would that mean the NetWeaver 2004s BI version is compatible to any R3 system versions for that Industry Sector?
Would you cautiously test this BI version to that of the R3 Indusrty Sector version before you actually implement and integrate both for real? Or would you just implement it and resolve issues with OSS during the implementation and integration? How would you a pproach this?
Thanks
"Confrontation lacks elegance and dignity, but most prefer to tell others how hateful they are toward another rather than maintain that elegance and dignity." ~ Anonymous

I am actually working with the Industry Sector 'Media Enterprise' and not 'AFS'.
I totally agree that you would have to test test test and work with SAP through OSS. You can't sit there worry about the unknowns and blow things out of proportion and accuse others of being new to this kind of work. You can't be narrow minded about these things and insist on selling 3.5; you got to be on top of things if you're going to call yourself Mr. and Mrs. Victor and Victoria PeopleWannabeManagerTheGreat
Anyway, there are no new implementations doing 3.5 anymore while 7.0 has already been released 1 year ago. It's not rocket science. We have a sandbox that is 3.5 and we could have installed nw2004s on this thing and test the heck out of it, but nooo... it is still 3.5; I tell you...Technical people want to put their misery out in no time by beating the heck out of this thing until they get it to work, but non-technical people want to create misery for others by talking and pointing talking and blaming and pointing until ...they become Senior Mr. and Mrs. Victor and Victoria PeopleWannabeManagerTheGreat. (That's funny...)
I smell envy...;-)
The highlight of the day for me...thought I'd throw out some humor if anyone would find it amusing.

Interactive form - Submit event - NetWeaver 2004s

I have problems with Submit event of UI element InteractiveForm in "SAP NetWeaver 2004s" box.
The event doesn't get filred.
I have no problems with the identical Webdynpro/Form in "SAP ECC 6.0" box. Submit event gets fired in ECC.
Both wendynpro's has UI InteractiveForm properties:
dispalyType = native
Enables = checked
Both forms have ZCI layout, ContainerFoundation_JS loaded and Submit button from WebDynproNative library.
It seems like Webdynpro in Netweaver box doesn't understand UI Interactive.
Webdynpro Support package is missing?
Please advice.
Thank you
Tatyana

Chris,
From SPAM I can tell about the component SAP_BASIS.
in "ECC 6.0" box:
Software C = 700, SP-level = 0020, Support Package = SAPKB70020, Short Desc = "SAP Basis Component"
in "SAP NetWeaver 2004s" box:
Software C = 700, SP-level = 0017, Support Package = SAPKB70017, Short Desc = "SAP Basis Component".
ADS is a standalone server. It talks to both "ECC 6.0" box and "SAP NetWeaver 2004s" box.
I don't understand your question "Both are NW7.00 boxes? ".
Both boxes have a component called SAP_BW. Here is info from SPAM:
in "ECC 6.0" box:
Software C = 700, SP-level = 0020, Support Package = SAPKW70020, Short Desc = "SAP Netweaver BI 7.0"
in "SAP NetWeaver 2004s" box:
Software C = 700, SP-level = 0019, Support Package = SAPKW70019, Short Desc = "SAP Netweaver BI 7.0"

I used an other port but I got the same error. The only thing which helps is a reboot of the server.
The operating system is LINUX.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Hi Ines,
I think you're missing the DISPLAY environment variable.
set DISPLAY <IP_of_your_pc>:0.0
make sure your Xserver is up and running.
That should solve your problem

NW04 is a 'Java version' which means you can develop applications using Java and export them to portal.
NW04s is a 'ABAP version'.Here you can develop ABAP reports and transactions and export them to portal. There you can create iViews using them.
Netweaver 04s, includes both the ABAP and Java stacks. The Sneak preview for NW04s is only for the ABAP stack, and the Sneak Preview NW04 SP15 is only the java stack. If you are using the sneak preview for ABAP, you can develop WDA applications and BSP applications, they run directly in the engine, not in a portal. But they can be embeded in an iView in some portal. You don't have to have a portal to run your application. If you are using the java side, you can develop WDJ applications and JSP applications. Same applies here, they run on the java engine, not in a portal, but can be embeded into an iView which runs on the portal. But you don't need a portal for your application to run. The portal is just a frontend UI, the apps themselves run on the underlying engine, whether its ABAP or JAVA.
