NWDS 7.3 - extension framework not working

Question

Hi experts,
I m trying to build and run an extension framework on a different requirement on the lines of this. I have defined it on the task extension after successfully deploying it on the connected AS JAVA. But I'm not getting any result on the IdM UI. There is already another EAR deployed not by me, which is running good. I have created everything from scratch with new names and servlet not as IdMRegisterServlet. Should there be any problem due to that ?
Because when I looked into the application tc~idm~jmx~app I could find only IdMRegisterServlet and not the one I designed.. Though I have meticulously followed the steps while deploying. If this is the case how will I be able to register it in the tc~idm~jmx~app ?
Any advise would be a Lifesaver.
Thanks

Hi Rimesh,
I guess the problem is not in the name of the servlet. You can use any name.
Please check:
1. If the application-j2ee-engine.xml of your new extension application contains a reference to
tc/idm/jmx/app application:
application-j2ee-engine xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="application-j2ee-engine.xsd">
<reference reference-type="hard">
<reference-target provider-name="sap.com"
target-type="application">tc/idm/jmx/app
</reference-target>
</reference>
application-j2ee-engine>
2. Check if your servlet is part of the web.xml of the war project:
<servlet>
<description></description>
<display-name>IdMRegisterServlet</display-name>
<servlet-name>IdMRegisterServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>testcustomer.idm.impl.IdMRegisterServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
If that does not help just write me.
Kind Regards,
Stefan
