No Systems in "Search in" 7.1SP3

Hi
I tried to import a data service as described in the documentation. However, in the Search (button in task-panel toolbar) in the "Search in" drop-down list is see no systems or WS-Destinations but the following entries: "Business Objects, Portal Content, Service Registry, Portlet Applications, Visual Composer Models, Web Dynpro Applications"
I have already created a WS-Destination for an external WS. And some other WS are in a backend R/3. So where can i access them in VC7.1SP3?
Thanks in advance.
Kilian

Hi Atul,
Many thanks that was the reason.
However the service does not work.
In the log and Web Service Navigator it first said: "Wsdl part element is missing required attribute(s) name/type." I downloaded the wdsl and tried it by importing the file in the WS Navigator then it said that "the XML is not valid. Node <types> child of <wsdl:definitions> not described in Schema."
I tested the WS in http://www.soapclient.com/soaptest.html and it worked fine.
So I guess the XSD of SAP NetWeaver is out-dated. Is it possible to replace them or do you know the exact prerequisites to use web services in SAP NetWeaver?
Thanks
Kilian

Cannot see BI system in search

Hi experts,
I have configured BI backend system from CE portal and the connection test is successful. However, after I configured, I logged into VC and cannot find BI system I configured in "Search" drop-down list. I can only see Web service destination and RFC destination. What shall I do to solve it? Did I lose any step? I followed the configuration guide from here "http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/7e/6dbcea3700452195e3bddaa47c5906/frameset.htm".
Best Regards
Tom

Hi Tom,
I have never made a connection to BI or any SAP System but a JDBC connection from the portal and did all the necessary steps, even though the test connection did not succeed, I could still see the system in VC.
In your steps, I do miss step 6 of the documentation, did you do this as well, may this is something which is required?
6.      Maintain the properties in the following categories:
○       BI/Business Intelligence
■       BI Directory Provider: yes
■       BI Master System: yes
One of the connected BI systems has to be the BI master system. If you are only connecting one BI system, choose Yes. If you are connecting more than one BI system, choose Yes for one system and No for the remaining system.
○       Connector
■       Group: Logon group of back-end system
■       Message Server: Message server of back-end system
■       Remote Host Type: 3
■       SAP Client: Client of back-end system
■       SAP System ID (SID): System ID of back-end system
■       System Type: SAP_BW
You can find the values for the logon group, system ID, and message server from the properties in the SAPGUI logon for the BI back-end system.
Best regards,
Dharmi

System wide search...

hello,
i'm trying to come up with the best way to search system wide for files that contain a certain name or maybe a certain type of file. i'm looking at any possibilities...here are some i've considered...
applescript - list folder
shell script - find, locate, msfind, ls | grep
cocoa/carbon - nsdirectoryenumerator, fscatalogsearch
i know this is the applescript forum but since there are some limitations (i think) in searching with plain applescript i'm sure all of you might have some suggestions as to what is the best approach? as for the search being system wide i should say as much possible because i want to keep the time down (as fast as possible). so i can take some shortcuts if necessary...
thank you,
rick

Great!
This test shows that the search is for files containing the name. notice that some of the files begin with period.

System status search

Hi :
In Plant Maintenance , i was able to find system status using the function
'STATUS_TEXT_EDIT'. From the returned string i want only those status whose value is CNF or TECO or CLSD and excluding the status if it contains PCNF or CRTD or DLFL or REL.
How can i search the variable ( v_status ) returned from the function 'STATUS_TEXT_EDIT'.
Thanks.
Raghu

Try something like this.
if ( str cs 'CLSD'
   or str cs 'CNF'
   or str cs 'TECO' )
and
   ( str ns 'PCNF'
and str ns 'CRTD'
and str ns 'DLFL' ) .
endif.
STR is the string which contains the status from the funciton module.

System Prefs search results in Spotlight always appear in Japanese ... ?

Recently I've noticed that for some reason, searching for System Prefs using Spotlight always returns the results in Japanese, whereas all of the other search results in Spotlight are in English.
Does anyone have any idea how this could happen, or how to reverse it? I've tried removing all languages except for English from the International System Prefs, but they still show up in Japanese.
Any help much appreciated.

Try re-indexing Spotlight.

System Preferences Search Not Working!

Hi,
For some reason the Search bar in the my System Preferences window isn't working. If I type "dock" into it, the System Preferences window dims like it should, but none of the icons are highlighted. The Dock icon should be highlighted, but it isn't.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Seems to be related to Leopard since I never had this problem before.

I'm using Leopard Cache Cleaner which has a special submenu that can clean preferences. It checks each file to see if it isn't corrupted and also suggest to clear too old preference files. Very useful to maintain everything in tip top conditions.

WSUS Uninstall - System Still Searching for Directory Path

Hello,
I recently uninstalled WSUS from a Server 2012 server core machine and installed it on a different Server 2012 server core machine. Everything is operational on the new server with no problems. However, on the old server, I am getting an error
(this is mainly an issue because SCOM generates an error because of this). Either way, I want to get to the root of the problem on the server so I am curious if anyone else has encountered an issue such as this below (now, I can understand the error
because the WebServices\Root folder has been removed since it isn't a WSUS server no longer):
"Could not find directory path 'C:\Program Files\Update Services\WebServices\Root\' for WebSite with Name :'WSUS Administration' and ID :'1014308378'. This website will be discovered with some properties missing. Operation will be retried.
Error: 0x80070003
Details: The system cannot find the path specified.
Workflow name: Microsoft.Windows.InternetInformationServices.6.2.Discover96to100WebSites
Instance name: IIS Web Server
Instance ID: {D1E371F2-DD70-9261-7B48-25D6D868F1E3}
Management group: <domain>"

this is mainly an issue because SCOM generates an error because of this
Then you probably ought to ask in the Operations Manager forum.
"Could not find directory path 'C:\Program Files\Update Services\WebServices\Root\' for WebSite with Name :'WSUS Administration'
and ID :'1014308378'.
Or not... :-)
This is actually an IIS 101 issue.
SCOM is looking for a resource on SiteID 1014308378. But SiteIDs in IIS are randomly assigned during site creation, so even though the machine name may be the same, almost certainly the SiteID changed when you moved the WSUS server to a
new machine.
Remove the SCOM references to the old server and add NEW references to the new WSUS server.

Replace system formatted search

Hi experts,
I need to delete a formatted search which is predefined in SAP. Is this possible? I want to replace the formatted search to get data from another table.
The field I am talking about is the 'Project' field in the Cost Accounting tab of the Fixed Asset Master Data.
Any ideas please?
Thanks,
vankri

Hi Vankri,
Yes, you can remove the predefine FMS. But you have to do it manually. To remove FMS on attached field press ShiftAltF2 and then select first option Without Search in User-Defined Values then press OK.

Searching within System Preferences no longer works

Hi all, the search box in system preferences used to highlight relevant icons to my search. now however it dims as if about to show a spotlight but it never appears, it undims when i delete the search term. have tried obvious searches such as "volume", "keyboard" etc... to verify.
have a feeling its been a while as have had some fruitless searches over some time but just assumed it was me searching for the wrong thing...
any ideas? does yours work? cheers

hmm i set up a new user account and it works fine in this, disk utility repaired some permissions (although it showed several which "would not be fixed"!)
any suggestions? back in main account and system preferences search isnt working

I had the geek squad from bestbuy supposedly install iphoto 11 on my mac but it is not there and when i try to download it it say the app has been download by another user on this machine. What do i need to do get get this app on my system? If they could not do it right the first time I do not have much faith in their advice.

Assuming you've done a system wide search for it including the Applications folder and it's not there......
I think you will need to address this with them - did you pay them for the application? Or was your purchase price to include it? And the question(s) to ask them:
If the app store states that it has been downloaded, ask them where it is and which Apple ID they used. (the store keeps track of Apple IDs and machine IDs on everything you download).
I have absolutely no faith in their advice; however, in this case, it's not so much technical advice, but an answer to your questions: you paid for something and it appears not to be there.

Search in ical?

i believe i am supposed to be able to do a search within applications including ical. but i can't find a way to make the search field come up in ical. and, in the system wide search, i only get one or two ical things....any idea?

I had a similar problem. The symptoms were:
- Search in iCal did not work at all (no result, what so ever, returned)
- Search in Spotlight worked (the same search that did not return anything in iCal would return To-Dos and events in Spotlight)
I started by backing up and restoring, but this did not work.
I then read a lot about potential solutions involving quite extreme things (such as reinstalling Leopard). I then found out that I could solve this issue by simply exporting each calendar and then reimporting them without deleting anything.
For example, I had a "Home" calendar that I exported. I then chose "Import" then picked the exported "Home" calendar and chose my "Home" calendar in iCal as destination calendar. I feared that I would end up with duplicate events and to-dos, but no, iCal is smart.
Once this is done, my search in iCal started to work again and searching items on this calendar would return correct results (as did spotlight).
I then did the same with all my other calendars, and voilà!
Hope this helps

How to build a search engine in the database?

Hi there,
say I have 3 tables:
1. Table_empl: idEmpl, fname, lname, dob...
2. table_department: idDpartment, idEmpl, departmentName, section...
3. table_fligths: idFlight, idEmapl, departure date, destination, carrier...I would like to provide the end-user a text box (in my GUI) where he can write whatever he would like to get info about. If, for example, he'll write: british-airways, I expect the system to search everything in the db that matches this input.
Question: How can I design such a search engine that retrieve information from every possible table in the db with reference to every column.
thanks for any pointers

thanks darted for your reply. so what do you recommend? should i give the end user all names of tables and columns and ask him to choose from the list and than build a query based on that?
this is optional but i'd rather have one exec button and to return all possible results from the db. if (in the example i provided) it found 'british airways' in the carrier - than that a result. if it founds 'british' in the lname of table_emple - that's another result. so the output should be something like:
found 2 matches:
1. british airways, 10/10/2006, LHR
2. British, John, 12/01/63,
any idea how to build that?

Backup error due to System Writer missing (enumeration of system32 printer dlls takes too long)

Hi,
On a Windows 2008 R2 we get a Windows Backup error while backupping System State (event id: 5, error code: '2155347997').
We tried *ALL* solutions found on Internet regarding the same issue (and we also applied the suggested hotfix KB2807849) but without success. So we DIGGED INTO VSS to see what is happening.
***1) First we saw that an USB printer had a problem and this resulted in
hundreds of entries in the following registry keys:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StillImage\DeviceNameStore\Canon MF6500 Series #100010]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StillImage\DeviceNameStore\Canon MF6500 Series #100011]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StillImage\DeviceNameStore\Canon MF6500 Series #100012]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StillImage\DeviceNameStore\{6BDD1FC6-810F-11D0-BEC7-08002BE2092F}\79590]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StillImage\DeviceNameStore\{6BDD1FC6-810F-11D0-BEC7-08002BE2092F}\79591]
***2) We completely removed ALL drivers/devices related to that printer (now the DeviceNameStore is empty and
pnputil -e returns no driver related to the printer)
***3) Using process monitor we saw that during vssadmin list writers the system is searching for the DLLs related to that printer AND SEEMS CAUGHT IN AN ENDLESS LOOP: this is an excerpt of the scan:
09:56:34,5205954   svchost.exe   324   RegSetValue   HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\VSS\Diag\System Writer\IDENTIFY (Enter)   SUCCESS
09:57:18,2310377 svchost.exe 324 QueryDirectory C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color\cnz005.icc NO SUCH FILE Filter: cnz005.icc

09:57:18,2316416 svchost.exe 324 QueryDirectory C:\Windows\System32\cnclsi20.dll NO SUCH FILE Filter: cnclsi20.dll
... and so on
.... THE SAME FILES ARE REPEATED HUNDREDS OF TIMES!!!! ...
It seems that somewhere there is a catalog of system files which still contains the references to the (same) files used by the hundreds of devices that WERE present in the DeviceNameStore (see point ***1 above, but now it is empty), and the System
Writer continues to search/enumerate those files and fails.
How can I fix it ? Is there a way to "reset" the System Writer and "rebuild" (???) the correct files that it should backup? (in order to complete a successfull system state backup)
Can you help me?
Thank you in advance.
EDIT: some additional (useful?) information:
* we also ran chkdsk /f C:
* sfc /scannow completes without errors
* in the vssadmin list writers the "system writer" is missing (but - as said above - when we run it the associated process repeatedly search printer dll files in the System32 directory)
* perhaps those file are contained is some filemaps catalog ?!? Is there a way to "reset" them?!?
***EDIT 2***:
I found that the reference to those missing DLLs are in ***C:\Windows\inf\setupapi.ev3*** but if I move the file away the System Writer continues not being listed in vssadmin list writer (though the vssadmin command complete very fast).

Perhaps I can delete the catroot2 directory?

Hi,
Please check if there are number of files in Temporary ASP.NET folders under "C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net\Framework". If so, clear these files then restart the server to check the results.
In additional, you could try the steps below to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Give NETWORK SERVICE Read permissions on COM+ Event System.
a. Open the registry editor and navigate to HKLM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventSystem.
b. Right click on the EventSystem and then select ‘Permissions’
c. Click on ‘ADD’ button and then type in ‘NETWORK SERVICE’ and give it READ permission.
d. Reboot the machine and then run the 'VSS admin list writers' to check if it shows up the 'system writer'.
2. If the step 1 doesn't work then move the contents of C:\Windows\winsxs\FileMaps to an alternate location. Then run the command 'VSS admin list writers' to check if it shows up the 'system writer'. Is so, some of those files maybe corrupted and we
need to identify them and replace the files from a healthy machine.

How to get the UDDI Key to publish a service provider system in SR?

Hi,
I am following instruction in appendix 1 & 2 of the white paper at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/1079b1af-dcb7-2b10-9ebb-eafcaa3cbbea?overridelayout=true
trying to publish a service provider system into the service registry. One thing not clear to me is how to get the uddikey as needed in step 6 in appendix 1.
My service registry is in a PI 7.1 SP4 system. I followed the instruction in appendix 2 but there is no uddi key displayed in the General tab. Please help.
Regards,
Jiannan
Paragraph extracted from the whitepaper:
There may be cases in which the NWA logical settings do not match the Services Repository
settings when Visual Composer is trying to locate the enterprise services. Such cases can occur
when there is no SLD ID definition of the physical system in the Services Repository.
Currently, Visual Composer cannot search for services on a physical system with an empty SLD ID
(which is not a valid one).
To obtain this capability, the following steps should be performed to generate the necessary data
for each system with a non-valid SLD ID, so that Visual Composer can search for services over it.
1.Log on to http://<serverName>:<serverPort>/WSNavigator.
2.Select the Services Registry radio button.
3.In the Find field, enter sr and choose Go.
4.Select the ServicesRegistrySi line and choose Next.
5.Under the Operation Name, search for the publishPhysicalSystems operation, select it and choose Next.
6.Fill the service information parameters with the following (see Appendix 2 for details on how to get this information) :
6.1.Click the + icon in the physical system[].
6.2.Deselect the Classifications checkbox.
6.3.Click the + icon in the classificationReferenceGroups[].
6.4.Click the + icon in the classificationReferences[].
6.5.Deselect the classificationSystemKey checkbox.
6.6.Deselect the uddiKey checkbox and enter the value <localUddiKey>.
6.7.Deselect the value checkbox and enter the value <localSystemHostName>.
6.8.Deselect the host checkbox and enter the value <localHostName>.
6.9.Deselect the physicalSystemKey checkbox.
6.10.Deselect the logical key checkbox and enter the value <System name>.<SystemHome>.<host name>.
6.11.Deselect the systemName checkbox and enter the value <system name>.
6.12.Deselect the type checkbox and enter the value 2.

Hi Jiannan,
No worries, you can go to UDDI client from the main page of PI i.e. http://<serverName>:<serverPort>/
And you use the search function for the TModel for your Physical System. Search parameters can use the % wildcard.
Hit the search and you find the UDDI Key for the Physical System.
Cheers.
