PI_BASIS Plugin

Hi all,
We are trying to implement Plug-ins and Support packs to most current level through the landscapes. One interesting thing we found was PI_BASIS 2005_1_xxx Patch 13, and PI_BASIS 2006_1_xxx Patch 0001 expire on
same day.
"Maintenance
Will be in mainstream maintenance until December 31, 2013."
Link:https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000662329&
Now we do not see a major reason why we should go for PI_BASIS 2006_1_xxx
instead we could simply patch the Plug-in and wait.
Please advise.
Thanks
Jaya

Hi,
You have to install the support packages with SPAM but you need to use SAINT to upgrade a plugin. You have also to download the specific upgrade/install files.

RDA Requirements

Dear Gurus,
I currently have an ECC 5.0 R/3 system connected to BW 3.5 and running perfectly on major business areas like sales, inventory, purchasing, FI/COPA etc.
I am in the process of implementing BI 7.0 as a separate server connected to the same ECC 5.0 R/3 system and intend to use the same datasources currently linked to the BW 3.5 system.
The requirement is that we will be expensively using RDA for the BI 7.0 extraction and current PI_BASIS component in R/3 is 2004_1_640 at level 10. I suppose this level does not support RDA and I need to upgrade PI_BASIS to the next version.
The question is would it affect the existing data sources and delta which are already mapped to the BW 3.5 server if I upgrade the PI_BASIS plugin to a version that supports RDA on the R/3 source swystem?
Regards
Suneeth

)How can we identify what datasources are REAL TIME datasources in R/3?
==> field REALTIME in table ROOSOURCE
2)Can any standard datasources be converted to REAL TIME datasources.
If yes ,what are the steps in details?
==> Yes, if the extractor can provide Real-Time data, i.e. at every point in time delta information. A negative example are FI-GL extractors which are only capable to provide data on a daily basis.
If you identify such a DataSource and the DataSource is critical to your project success, please contact me directly via EMail.
Proceeding is as follows (SPS8 is recommended):
a.) Set field ROOSOURCE-REALTIME for respective DataSource (per customer ABAP report)
b.) Replicate DataSource
c.) Create DeltaInit InfoPackage and execute
d.) Create Transformation and DTP to a DataStore Object (if applicable)
e.) Create a daemon in Real-Time Monitor (Transaction RSRDA)
f.) Locate your DataSource in the 'Not assigned' part of the tree structure
g.) Assign InfoPackage and DTP to daeomon (via context menu on the DataSource)
h.) Start the daemon
3)Why only ODS is used to load for REAL TIME datasources and not INFOCUBES.
==> Since data is immediately available for reporting and we have an open request we have a specific update processing for the data target (with a special DTP). This has currently only been implemented for DataStore Object.
4)Can generic datasources be built as REAL TIME datasources.
Yes

Inits/Deltas during Uprgrades and support packs

How are people handling the deltas and initializations when upgrades and support packs are applied to the source system. We had to delete our delta queues and reload everything!!! I know that's not right. ( At least I hope that's not right!!!). Please advise...

Ye s- you should not have to reload targets a a result of an SP/Upgrade.
When there are changes to the PI_BASIS plugin (extraction from ERP), you need to clear your V3 and Delta queues.
When SAP Service API (internal and BI Data mart extraction) is changed, you need to clear the BW delta queues. This can require two complete extraction and laod processes.
As a matter of practice, we always clear all queues prior to an SP/upgrade.
See the How to... Checklist: Rapid SAP Netweaver 7.0 BI Technical Upgrade document which is where you can fins this info page 11or 12.

PI_BASIS 7.02 compatiblity

Hi Experts!
We are in the process of Netweaver 7.0 upgrade to EHP2 which includes plugin PI_BASIS with min. required 7.02 SP07 level.
Do you know what restrictions apply or where to get information about the minimum version/patch level for the connected systems in the landscape?
The lastst verion and compatibility information I found was for "PI_BASIS 2006.1" in Note 1007796.
Any info about newer PI_BASIS version's compatibility?
thanks,
Peter

Hi,
I don't think so pi_basis 702 has minimum patch level 7. This might be because, EHP2 has latest SP4 released which has PI_Basis 702 SP7. You just need to maintain equivalent patch level while doing upgrade.
Thanks
Sunny

Missing PI_BASIS plug-in between 2002.2 and 2005.1

Hi gurus,
I need to install on my SAP System (SAP R/3 Enterprise) the PI_BASIS 2002_2_620 (and many more) plug-ins but someone have still installed the PI_BASIS 2005_1_620.
Now, on my server, I have only this two PI_BASIS plug-in release:
- 2002_2_620
- 2005_1_620
Is mandatory to install the missing version (2003.1.620 and 2004.1.620) or everything is ok?
Also, is possible to remove the PI_BASIS 2005_1_620 plug-in?
Thanks!
Alex


You really have two versions installed? That´s not good...
PI_BASIS is the plugin, that handles communications and contains interfaces between e. g. R/3 and the SRM, CRM, BI etc.
A correct process would be to use the latest one (which is 2006_1_620) and installing it by UPGRADING the installed one.
I really suggest opening an OSS call since your system is in an inconsistent state, you have two identical addins of different versions - which is usually not possible to have.

BI plugin andsupport pack compatibilty

Gurus,
I tried to search lot on this forum but did not find the answer
question is about what exactly are the BI releases that are compatible with the plugins
thanks

SAP R/3 Plug-In is downward compatible. This means a lower R/3 Plug-In release can communicate with a higher BI, for example, PI2003.1 is technically compatible with BW3.5 and with NetWeaver 2004s BI. PI2004.1 is the latest PI release delivered to customers. This release is technically compatible with all BI releases including NetWeaver 2004s BI Content Add-On 2 and higher. However, we recommend that you always use the most current Plug-In release and support packages.
The PI_Basis level in a BW system is completely independent of and separate to the PI_Basis level in an OLTP system. PI_Basis is a layer that contains the Service API interface for data extraction. If you use the OLTP system as a source system for data extraction, you should consider the PI_BASIS level (releases, support packages). If you use BI for data extraction (as the 'Myself' system), you must ensure that the PI_Basis in BI has the correct release and support package level. PI_Basis means Service API functions on Basis Release 620 and higher. Service API on Basis releases lower than 620 is included directly in PI releases, CRM releases, or industry solution releases.
For more information, see SAP Note 153967

Unable to capture startup and shutdown event of Photoshop in automation Plugin.

Hi,
I am creating an automation plugin and I want to register some events. I have seen listener plugin sample to register event in startup and unregister event in shutdown. I have used same code in my plugin but I am unable to capture the startup nad shutdown event of Photoshop. On clicking the menu item of my plugin the calls come inside the AutoPluginMain but during the startup or shutdown of plugin, the calls does not come inside the AutoPluginMain.
I am unable to detect the cause of the problem. Can someone please giude me??
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the suggestion.
Yes, I am working on Windows. As you suggested, I compiled .rc file but the compile option for .r file was disabled. After compiling the .rc file, I again rebuild the complete project and tested my build. But still I was not able to achive the desired result.
Any other thing that I need to do to make it work?

Flash 12.0.0.77 plugin installs to wrong folder

In Vista x64, using either Firefox 28 or Firefox 24.4 ESR, the plugin installer (one downloaded from Adobe distribution) installs the 32 bit .dll file to \system32\macromedia\flash\ folder;
installs the 64 bit .dll to: \sysWOW64\macromedia\flash\ folder. So, they're exacly reversed.
I uninstalled it completely - went well. Then removed 1 remaining file in one of the above paths, then reinstalled. Did the same thing.
Before I did all this - I was *very sporadically* seeing the FlashPlayerPlugin_12_0_0_77.exe file, running (kinda "sitting") in background, in task manager. It never came to foreground w/ a UI, asking for anything. Couldn't figure out what it was, until started looking in the installation folders.
That's what lead to discovery the files were in wrong folders.
Anyone heard of this?
BTW, "Nayana" of Adobe Support chat, is a few bricks shy of a load. Or I am. I couldn't create an acct for forums. She kept saying, you don't need an acct - "just post your question. Other people will answer it."

EDIT: Seems there's no error in Flash installing to wrong folders, only error in my brain. Why didn't someone stop me from embarrassing myself?
System32 (in a 64 bit OS / architecture) is for 64 bit drivers, files; SysWOW64 is for 32 bit apps running in 64 bit OS.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WoW64
WoW64 (Windows 32-bit on Windows 64-bit) is a subsystem of the Windows operating system capable of running 32-bit applications and is included on all 64-bit versions of Windows
Also, http://www.samlogic.net/articles/32-64-bit-windows-folder-x86-syswow64.htm (section on SysWoW64)
End Edit.
Thanks for info on attaching images. A bit different than most forums. There's no "preview post" before submitting?
Screenshots of the 2 flash folder contents.
NOTE: I attached full FlashInstall.log earlier. I opened the 1.25 MB (text) file in an editor - copied contents to clipboard > paste to forum reply screen. Immediately locked up Firefox like a big dog. Couldn't perform any functions in Fx - not even reload or close browser. At same time, Fx memory use was continually climbing; to nearly 2 GB when I killed it. Won't make that mistake again.
Been many yrs since Fx locked up, doing anything. That aside, Adobe is definitely "different" than most forums. Almost like a person w/ no $ to use one of the many forum softwares available.

How do I use VLC web plugin 2.0.6.0

I,m trying to watch some RTSP files. A google search turned up how to configure VLC to play these files. I followed the instructions and it worked although with a clumsy copy and paste the video URL proceedure. I then found a suggestion that this plugin might simplfy the process. Problem is, I can't figure out how to use it. can someone help?

If you don't get a solution here, try asking on the VLC forums.

IMovie 6 HD Expanded Text Options Plugin

I would like to have more flexibility in the use of text in titles in iMovie 6 HD. I'm looking for a plugin that will allow for more user control of text including multiple fonts, multiple sizes, etc in a single title. Is there such a plugin available that would allow more "word-type" text manipulation possibilities?

Check out this plug-in from cf/x:
http://www.imovieplugins.com/titlehome.html
Click on 'Simple Caption' in the l/h column. Note that it seems to only work with Postscript fonts.
You can test it for free, or buy it for only $6!
I use several of their plug-ins, they work great, but I haven't tried this one (no, I am not related to them!)

Forms Web application is not working on FireFox Browser-with java plugin

Hi All,
We are running custom build forms application using forms 10g and application server 10 g Rel 2. We are using Java Plug-in 1.5.0_06. The application is working fine before recent update from firefox .Now it's not working and keep on asking additional plug in required and taking to java.sun.com for installing the plug in. Even after installing when we access the application it will do the same thing. I tried uninstalling the firefox with the older version and with diffrent java plugin versions.. but the problem still there.. any help will be mush appriciated...
Thanks...

How can I use One Plugin with all his outputs on the region

Hi All
In Cubase I have a PlugIn Manager and when I have a Plugin like Omnisphere with 8 outputs I can route each output on one sequencer region.
Can I do This as same in Logic?
Exemple
I will open a new Midi Instrument on a region. Than I Know I have 8 outputs and than I will have 8 Lines and each line I will create Midi comandos for each output separatly.
can I do this? Or any Idee how can I do this?
Thanks for help
Marco

When you load a plug-in that's capable of multi-output, you do have a menu choice about that when you load it, yeah ?
You can create the additional channels that you need in the mixer - press the '+' button on the channel strip and it does it for you.

Creative mediasource, plugins, audiosrobbler etc

Hey, im Vikki
So, i've got my Xtra 30gb, i've had it for well over a year now, its all fine and dandy except from a few scratches from all its adventures
I upgraded everything i could for my nomad yesterday. The mediasource especially, because i didnt install it on my laptop because i've never needed it on here. I upgraded the firmware to .20, but i've heard that its dodgy and that i should roll back to ., is this true?
The reason i installed MediaSource was because i wondered if it had a plugin API.
I belong to a website called last.fm. Last.fm is a service (a free service) that tracks your music listens. It then makes graphs, charts, and things according to what you listen to. With thousands of users, top charts are made, etc. And you can also use their radio service - it creates a radio for you based on what youve already listened to. It suggests new tracks that you would like depending on your neighbours tastes - people who have a similar music interst to you. theres a lot more than that. Its a huge community, and a lot of it is community based.
The way it tracks your music listens is througha plug in that sits nicely onto your player. Wmp, winamp, itunes, whatever, theres loads because theyre mostly made by the users, for the users. you can see the plug in working, you can see it submitting tracks to last.fm. Its called an audioscrobbler plug in, because audioscrobbler.com and last.fm have just merged together.
With the iTunes audioscrobbler plugin, it not only records what you listen to in itunes, it also grabs what youve played from the iPod from when you were out and about when the iPod is later connected to iTunes.
Back to my original enquiry. Is there any way to make plug ins for the media source? i know a lot of people on the last.fm forum who were wondering about this - it means being able to plug the creative in, hook it up to media source, play songs from it and free up tonnes of gb on our harddri'ves. Even if it doesnt record a cache of what youve listened to when the player was away from the computer - a general audioscrobbler plug in would be brilliant.
Incase youre confused, heres some links. I think i've explained what i want in more words than i needed. Hopefully if you get nothing much from this thread you might at least get a chance to try last.fms brilliant service, because its for music lovers.
last.fm is last.fms site
http://www.last.fm/forum/276/_/43945 thats the thread which started it all
http://www.last.fm/user/vikkilea/ thats my music profile
im a bit scared about posting this, so be nice.
And im not sure if links are allowed, please understand that im not advertising, i just want some help on something that needs the links to explain, i think... and also, some of you might be last.fm members anyway...

I've not heard of any specific problem with the Xtra. I know the Touch EQ is broken with the latest firmware. I'm not sure if this happens with the Xtra also.

It would be a great idea. I'm an Audioscrobbler user. As Audioscrobbler say though it would need someone to write it outside of their company.
