Portal application connect SQL Database

Hi all,
I'm newbie in SAP Portal. Now, I've created a new system which connects to SQL Database. Now I want to write a small portal application in Netweaver developer studio, using JSP Dynpage, and retrieve data from this SQL database. Could you please help me or show me the step by step documents to write this example ?
Thank you very much.

Hi Tweety,
SAP NetWeaver Portal comes with some standard iView templates that can be used to access data stored in databases.
Check <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/f5/eb51610e6a11d7b84900047582c9f7/frameset.htm">SAP Library</a> for more information.
Best regards,

PDA Application Connect to Database

Hi,
I want to develop application sit on PDA(like iPAQ) eg.Contact Manager (to keep personal contact). this require a database to keep all these information in the PDA so that can be retrieve.
Its there any Micro-Database that can be installed into PDA (free?).
Please show me the link to get this Installaler, JDBC and documentation.
Please show me also the way to create database and table in PDA. and step to install this micro-db into the PDA.
It would be more helpful, if someone can give me some simple example of a PDA Application connect to Database.
Thanks in advance, Regards

Open source one is :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hsqldb
This one is not absolute free but the price is quite compelling.$995 for unlimited install.

Even SQL CE from MS is free, as long as you not use it connected to backend system. so if u could work out other sync implementation or u dont need data sync at all, this might be a choice too. The issue is no official JDBC driver for SQL CE though there is for SQL server.
However, I have no hand on experience on those 3. We are evaluating Pointbase Micro, thought not free.l

How to connect sql database with Flash

Dear Friends,
Iam working on a quessinarie (assesment) for elearning software. i want to connect sql database with flash and save my records in back end like add, delete, modification of student result and details.
Kindly help me to connect the sql database. or dot net server. I know how to connect PHP and mysql. But my client dont want php. only sql database and do the add, del, modificaiton.
Thanks in advance,
Syed Abdul Rahim

unfortunately no, i do not know ASP well enough to give any code advice, other than the basic concept: make a request on a server-side script (such as ASP) via URLLoader - the script receives variable values (if required), runs the DB queries you wish to invoke, and 'returns' the results - pick them up in the URLVariables class via the event handler in Flash and assign them to local properties if needed, etc.
there are quite a few threads that you could find more specific information on the ASP side, here and elsewhere around the net.

Portal application connecting backend SAP R/3 system

Hi All,
 I am developing one portal application through NWDS. It's JSPDYNPage component.The applications functionality is basicaly is to connect it to backend SAP R/3 system & fetch some data in aparticular table & display that data in a tableview format on one JSP& also when i click any row of the tableview then details of that row should get displayed on the next JSP. So i reached till develpoing a code that connnects to Backend SAP R/3.(Basicaly coding of connection part is done). Now i need to test this code, to check whether it is fine or not? NWDS doesnt give nay error, not compile also or not runtime error also. It simply shows the output as a blank page, where it is supposed to display one line of text in textview(i coded this in my JSP).But as i said it displays a blank page. i tried to debug the application , but debugging also not worked.I performed the debugging twice in right way. The code was not debugged, it run the same way as it normally runs when debugging is off & shown the blank page. I also have done all the the settings or prerequisites for debugging properly. I am stuck at this point now.search many documents , but no relevant help has been received. Can anyonehlep me with this. i am putting below the code for JSP, JSPDYNPAGE component as well as portalapp.xml.

I started working on it & developed some code, which i want to test whether it is working fine or not.I:e- code to connect to SAP R/3, but when i run the application it doesnt give any error but also it doesnt show any output which it should display(value of output parameter of RFC). Below is the code for component, code for JSP & code for bean. Can any one tell me what is the error in this? or why i am not getting the output i desired.

Hi Chetan,
Connection to R/3 systems through Portal can be done in many ways. Since you have mentioned that you are using jspdynpage then its better that you use JCo for connecting to R/3 system.
U can write the JCo code using the jspdynpage component. I hope you have pdfs related to JCO. Incase u dont have then give me you mail id. OK
Another approach could be developing a web dynpro java application that access a r/3 table using a BAPI. You can a dynpro model to easily connect to R/3 system.
Just develop an iview based on this web dynpro application. And finally navigate to this iview through your jspdynpage.
I hope this helps you in some way

How can I build mobile application , connect with database and can show its working by simulator

Dear, I want to build mobile application.
Actually, my application has 2 parts. one is webbased application.
Second part is mobile bases.
instructor will take interview of the students. he will enters marks by mobile and then by using BT, it will be sent to webbased part and saved in mysql database.

Actually, the mobile part of your question is irrelevant to the central issue of building an application that will allow:
1. Collecting information from a student
2. Entering that information into a database
To do this, you would build a form page that allows you to input the desired information. When that form is submitted, validate the information and enter it into a database.
Once you have this working, format the form page so that it displays well on mobile devices.
To use this you would browse to the form page on your mobile device browser, input the information, and submit it.
Is that what you want?

Connecting SQL database as model in webdynpro

Hi experts,
I've some queries regarding JDBC in webdynpro.

2) How should I load SQL table data in webdynpro? Is there any alternative other then writing pure java jdbc code?
Please give possible solution in description.

Failing to connect SQL Server 2005 from SAP

I'm trying to connect SQL database to write some data to an external sql table. But it's failing giving below message,
Error Message returned from "ADBC_TEST_CONNECTION" program:
Testing a Database Connection Defined in DBCON
Could not open connection EACT_MESSAGES
sql error          1- occured:
Login timeout expired
I can connect from .NET Applications using the same connection string configuration.
What could be the reason for this.
Do I need to enable some service for this in SQL server. I have enabled all possible SQL related services.
But still no luck.

I found a solution..
Instead putting the server name, used IP address which is static. that solved the issue.

Integration of SQL database with XI

Dear All,
I have a req in that I have to connect to SQL Server database to XI system then from XI to ECC.
To do this what are Connection should done from DatabaseXI-ECC.
I have JDBC adapter in XI.Do I need install again in XI .
how we will connect SQL Database to XI system?
Regards
Manish

Hi Manish,
Your scenario like this
JDBC->XI->ECC(RFC/PROXY/IDOC).
Download the following JDBC Driver. Once you deploy this driver you would be able to connect to SQL Server .

Upload sql database to hosting company

Hi folks, quick question,
I create asp.net web application and sql database, I have then created App_Data folder within my application and pasted the MDF & log files into this folder, but my application is still not working!
Works ok on the localhost.
Any tips or advice much appreciated.

You have to Restore/Attach the database to an SQL Server Database Engine and refer it from your asp.net code by using the connection strings.

Connecting sql 2000 to sap NW was

I want to develop webdynpro java applications connecting Sql 2000 . I have done examples using R/3 , webservices etc .
Please give me a detailed step by step guide else a good link
Thanks in advance
Bhat

Thank mil.. :-) It is working...!!!No problem glad to hear it.
By the way you can use Windows authentication (if it is a requirement) but I don't believe that driver version supports it. You can use the JTDS driver ( a free open source type 4 driver) instead because that does support Windows authentication.
Again though.. only if you need it.
