Problem while printing from SAP GUI for HTML

Hello,
We are trying to print a delivery confirmation from the portal using SAP GUI for HTML. We have followed note 771683 to do this. However we are facing the following problems:
1) The print action(PDF creation) is not triggered until the user performs some action
2) the PDF that is created is corrupted(does not open)
In order to correct this we tried to implement note 957292. However, the changes to the object FRONTEND_PRINTPOLL_FRONT_REQUEST.HTM mentioned in this note created problems. So we decided to do the changes to this object manually. But we see that the SAP note doesn't contain any information on changes that should be implemented for this object.
Question:
Is the note 957292 only way to solve the printing(PDF) problem? If not, how can we trigger the automatic creation of the PDF and remove the error from the PDF file?
If yes, any idea what is causing the problem during the note implementation?
We are on NW2004s - EP7.0 SP10
ITS 7.0
Thanks in advance.

Reena

Unable to Print Purchase order automatically using SAP GUI for JAVA

Hi SAP gurus,
Some of the PC's in our company use windows and some LINUX. Therefore we use two types of SAP GUI. One for windows and the other one JAVA. PO approval was set to print automatically. In a windows setting, there are no problems with this setup. But in SAP GUI for JAVA, no print outs are produced and no error messages are displayed. I am using SAP GUI for JAVA version 7.10 ver 6. and I use Front end printing for linux access method G.
please help,
gungertz

hi gungertz,
You can use U type access method for printing SAP document using linux desktop.
Please refer to my blog posting here (http://sapbasis.wordpress.com/2007/08/23/print-sap-documents-using-linux/)

BW Bex Browser in SAP GUI for JAVA 6.40 R2.2 for Linux Desktops

Hello,
I am using SAP GUI for JAVA v 6.40 R2.2 on a Linux desktop. But during the installation it doesn't ask for BW Bex installation option (as in SAP GUI for Windows). Is it the case that BW Bex is not supported in Linux Environment? If it is then kindly suggest some way to install the same.
Regards,
Yashodhan

Hi Yashodhan,
the Business Explorer does not exist in the Linux environment.

SAP GUI for Java 7.10 rev 7 - strange behavior using mouse

Hi,
I use last revision of SAP GUI for Java 7.10 on linux and I've noticied that some mouse actions do not work as expected. I'll use describe an examples:
(1)
In rev.6 I simly push button on screen and move over text, text is marked and then I can use CTRL-C to copy text to clipboard.
In rev.7 pushing button and move does nothing. I need one initial click more and then it works as expected.
(2)
Click to icon in an ABAP list sometimes activate another icon from screen (it seems that focus isn't moved from its previous position to new mouse cursor position).
Because rev.7 has been released at the end of 2008, it is possible, that some dotted revision (solving these troubles) has been released, does anybody know solution?
Thank you for some hints,
Pavel

Hello Pavel,
we have not yet been aware of such issues, so a newer dotted version would likely not make a difference.
(1) The behavior pretty much depends on the specific component you are clicking and selecting its text.
So a specific test case identifying the component is required to investigate the issue.
(2) Also for this case I ask to provide the exact context, even if it happens there only "sometimes".
Please provide also information requested in [note 326558|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/326558], parts 2.) and 3.)
If you could provide all this as part of a [support message|http://service.sap.com/message] would be great.

Impossible to download SAP Gui for Java (7.20)

Hello,
I have been trying for more than an hour to download SAP GUI for Java (7.20), but without luck.
I'm on Linux, and have tried chrome, Firefox and download manager. I'm on a plain internet connection without proxy.
On Firefox and chrome:
1) Went to the market place and chose "SAP GUI FOR JAVA 7.20 -> Linux on IA32 32bit"
On the download tab, I see a list of files, amongst which is "PlatinGUILNX_3-10006060.JAR"
Clicking it brings up a new window, but no download is started, i.e. nothing happens. The link in the new window is
https://smpdla.sap.com/00000331/703/PlatinGUILNX_3-10006060.JAR?object_id=012002523100010356772010D&filepath=00000331\703\PlatinGUILNX_3-10006060.JAR&uid=S0008007141&LOC=FRA
2) So I installed the download manager, prepared a basket from the list at (1) and refreshed. Trying to connect brought up the failure: u201CThe basket content could not be read. [...]
Exception: class dlClient.ResponseParseException
Message: Invalid line in basket content data: <HTML>
Current token:"
(i.e. nothing more after current token.)
Any ideas? TIA
(I must say I'm a little disappointed through how many hoops I have to go for a simple download. The registration was already a bit more complicated than is usual, but I could understand security and administrative reasons. But why is it not possible to provide a simple download link for logged in users which only works for logged in users?)

Hello Joeren,
I am really sorry that we are no longer allowed to provide the anonymous ftp download.
Method 2) is the one which should work for you.
Please have a look at [notes|http://service.sap.com/notes] of component XX-SER-SAPSMP-SDM, in particular [note 401195|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/401195] regarding Download Manager. Did you enter the address of the SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com) correctly?
In case you do not find the information to make it work, please create a [support message|https://service.sap.com/message] on the component already mentioned, and someone responsible for Download Manager should contact you.
Apologizes for not being able to provide more assistance in this matter.

SAP GUI for JAVA - Search Help ALV display

I need to be able to display search helps in the ALV grid format or the ' Dialog Modal ' option as seen on the Settings for all F4 helps tab under the personalize option for search helps.
Currently when I am using a Macintosh machine the system ignores the system setting and my personal settings and displays all search results in an ABAP List format. Unfortunately the ABAP list format does not work correctly when used to input a field on another ABAP list report.
This behaviour can be found on the Mozilla Firefox browser when SAP GUI for HTML and the SAP GUI for JAVA.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Rolf-Martin,
Thank you for your detailed explanation on how the ALV grid control is implemented for the SAP GUI for Java. This has been pretty insightful. The good news is that I finally figured out a solution to my problem. You see I inherited an old custom program where an ABAP list is used as an interactive data capture screen with input fields. Well a couple of fields had search helps. The program has worked fine with the regular SAP GUI until a MAC OS user tried to use it with the SAP GUI for Java. Whenever they selected a line from the search help it would bring back the entire onto their input screen.
A sample of the code:
form search_help.
 CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
 EXPORTING
 TABNAME = 'EKPO'
 FIELDNAME = 'MATNR'
 SEARCHHELP = 'ZMAT1_A'
 SHLPPARAM = 'MATNR'
 TABLES
 RETURN_TAB = RET_TABLE.
IF NOT RET_TABLE-FIELDVAL IS INITIAL.
 LINXX-XMATNR = RET_TABLE-FIELDVAL.
 MODIFY CURRENT LINE FIELD VALUE XMATNR FROM LINXX-XMATNR. " ****
ENDIF.
SET CURSOR 9 SY-CUROW. " ********
endform.
The problem was being caused by the fact that the search help ABAP list was overriding the sy-XXXX values for the current line contents, index, pageno, cursor row for the calling ABAP list. So when a user selected a row from the search help this would now become the current context and be transferred back to the calling program.
The fix was pretty simple; all I had to do was save the current line context and the context prior to calling the search help. After the search help was run I would then replace the current line with the saved one in my local variable. I hope this makes sense. We now have a couple of happy MAC OS users.
Once again I thank you for your patience and support in this matter.
Have a great day,
Edwin.
