Queries with content server (DMS)

Dear Experts,
I have few queries regarding Content server,
As i know content server is used to store documents of any type , like Autocad, Primevera,word, excel etc....
when we install content server do we need to install the , Autocad, Primevera,excel ..etc....on the client or server side. how its going to support these file types.
secondly i came to know that content server 6.4 can be install on unix, if so then do we need to install Autocad ,primevera,excel in unix enviroment.
please answer to this question or drop me your personal email ID or Telephone number as i have to send this specification to the client.
Thanks
Regards,
Sameer.

Hi Carl ,
Thanks for your response, it means by default it supports these file systems,
Another things is that all ECC servers Dev ,Qas and Prd are on AIX, and customer wants to install content server on windows, can it be possible.
will there be any inconsisteny issues if you proceed with such hetrogenous landscape.
Regards,
Sameer.

SAPu2019s content server (DMS) and EDMS with ECC 5.0

Hi all,
I am in the process of setting up SAPu2019s content server (DMS) and would really appreciate some insights as what version I should be installing.
We are currently running ECC 5.0 (640).
I am also interested in utilizing the Easy DMS functionality and would also really appreciate some insight on that as well (version etc).
Please advise?
Regards,
Iqbal

Hi Iqbal,
unfortunately I'm not a Content Server expert. From DMS point of view I would recommend you to use always the latest Content Server patch level (see SAP note 514500). For the decision on the content server I would recommend you to contact your local consulting organisation which will support you in finding the right content server for your business requirements.
Regarding EasyDMS and the version you should use I can provide you the following suggestion. General there are currently three versions of EasyDMS which are 6.0, 7.0 and 7.1.
If you would like to run EasyDMS on Windows 7 PCs too, then you have to use version 7.1 because only this version supports Windows 7. Otherwise I would recommend you to run the latest patch level of verison 7.0
Further I can recommend you to read through the following notes which provide useful information on EasyDMS:
990018 - EasyDMS 6.0 Restriction Note
903827 - FAQ for Easy DMS 6.0
1273919 - SAP Easy Document Management 7.0 Restriction Note

Trouble with Content Server connection

I am having an issue with content server on Unix. I'm finished with content server install and need to connect my ABAP system to it via CSADMIN. But when I first enter CSAdmin, I give it my host and port. What is the unix http script name for the default install??? Only the Windows name - ContentServer.dll - is populated? What is the web address to get to the content server?
http://<host>:<port>/???????
Do I need to do something with OAC0 and SICF first, before going to CSADMIN. The guide does not mention anything?
Thanks for your replies!
Jeff

Hi. I dont know obout CS on UNIX, on windows CS uses port 1090 and HTTP script ContentServer/ContentServer.dll
The web page is
http://server:1090/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo.
It's on Windows....
Also read this Note 586895. -->
      New access paths and compatibility with Windows systems
              The "/ContentServer/ContentServer. dll" and "/Cache/CSProxyCache.dll" paths have since been established as fixed default values for the Content Server/Cache Servers for Windows.
              The module access in the Apache Web server is not restricted to actual paths for program files. Using <location> tags, you can determine any (sub)paths that are to be used to access a module. These tags are entered in the "httpd.conf" file within the relevant module configurations. You can also define the clients allowed to access this "location" within a <location> tag with an Allow/Deny clause.
              To be able to continue using the Windows paths proposed in the SAP system, these Windows paths are installed as compatibility tags.
              In addition to this, you can use the new, essentially shorter paths "/sapcs" and /sapcsc" to access the SAP Content Server and the SAP Cache Server.
              The "Modifications to httpd. conf" attachment to the installation manual contains a list of all of the access paths delivered.

DMS link with content server

Hi All,

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
Content servers are used to save large quantities of documents, either within SAP Media on the SAP database, or in an external system via an SAP-certified interface. The Document Modeling Workbench in SAP Media is structured so that one document class (for example, a physical storage place) is available for each business object. A content server therefore contains one memory space for every business object. In SAP Media Systems, documents are stored in the SAP Media database or on an external content server.
Using Content Server with database storage gives you a very stable, secure and fast environment. You can store documents in R/3 as well, but that is really only a good solution for few documents.
Additional information is available in the SAP Library under SAP R/3 and R/3 Enterprise ® SAP R/3 Enterprise Release 4.70 ® SAP SAP NetWeaver Components ® SAP Web Application Server ® Basis Services/Communication Interface (BC-SRV) ® ArchiveLink (BC-SRV-ARL) and Knowledge Provider (BC-SRV-KPR).

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/15/aea9375d79fb7de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
KPro is mainly used to store and retrive content from Content Server.

1.The DMS transactions run on the ECC system, but the documents can be stored on the content server.

Will Adobe Reader 7.0.9 or 7.1.0 work with Content Server 4?

Hello Adobe,
I have a Toshiba Satellite A75-S213 laptop, Intel Pentium 4, 1 GB RAM, Windows XP Home.
I've purchased ebooks from SimonSays.com several times over the course of 2008; each time, my Adobe Reader 7.0.9 was able to open the "ebx.etd" file and able to access the ebooks without any problems.
However, the last purchase I made around a week ago keeps leading to me downloading ".acsm" files, which Adobe Reader 7.0.9 (or Adobe Reader 7.1.0) doesn't recognize and can't open.
I contacted SimonSays.com and they suggested that I download Adobe Digital Editions. I don't know if that will solve the problem or not.
I've done some of my own research and found that between my last purchase in early September and the one I made in early October, Adobe changed their Content Server from Version 3 to Version 4? Does that explain why I can't even download the "ebx.etd" files from ebooks I've already downloaded in the past, but instead, get ".acsm" files instead for those ebooks that I've downloaded before?
I take it then that Adobe Reader 7 (any version) can no longer read ebooks you purchase from retailers such as SimonSays.com and that you have to use Adobe Digital Editions instead? I even upgraded from Adobe Reader 7.0.9 to Adobe Reader 7.1.0, thinking that would do the trick, but it's still downloading ".acsm" files.
I did authorize Adobe Reader back in January (which is why I could download and read the ebooks from my previous purchases); I know I ran antivirus and anti-spyware software and wasn't sure whether I deleted something that might have caused this problem, but I know that I've run those same programs and never had this problem before now. Do I have to reauthorize Adobe Reader somehow, and if so, how? I log into Adobe and get that "Eden.ui" zipped file, but putting that into the folder with the ".acsm" file doesn't allow Adobe Reader to open it and read it.
Therefore, is there any way to keep using Adobe Reader 7.1.0 to read my future ebook purchases or is the only way to read ebooks from now on is via Adobe Digital Editions? And if I download Adobe Digital Editions, is it better to keep Adobe Reader 7.1.0 on my system or should I upgrade to Adobe Reader 8 or 9?
I'd greatly appreciate any and all advice on this, as I can't open ebooks I've purchased, and I'm pretty sure there are no refunds for ebook purchases (though I'd prefer to be able to purchase and read ebooks in the future) - thank you.
Please take care and have a great day!
Sincerely,
Joseph Chengery

Hello,
You will need to install Adobe Digital Editions which will solve this issue. .acsm files only open with Digital Editions. Also, if you import all of your previously purchased books with Digital Editions, they will be migrated automatically. Digital Editions can be downloaded for free from:

TMSXE with Content Server (TCS)

I have new install TelePresence Content Server.
Existing system have TMS, TMSXE and it's working fine. I can booking endpoint, MCU via microsoft outlook.
I can manually calling to recording server and it can record normally.
Currently I would like to add TCS to TMSXE same as all endpoints which it will mapping with mailbox on Microsoft Exchange but it display error as picture.
I'm not sure what is the solution for TMSXE with Recording server (TCS).
Thanks.

Hi,
we do have the same problem with connecting TCS and TMS via TMSXE.
We tried with h323 and without, SIP alias, SIP device alias, .... no success.
If there is no h323 address the TCS can't even be booked in TMS directly. As soon as the TCS has a h323 registration (Gateway in our case) you can book it in TMS. But TMSXE is still not working.
To make sure it's not an Exchange issue we tried to connect a SX20 to the Exchange resource and it worked fine. As soon as you try to connect the TCS to the Exchange calendar and hit on save the error appears.
In the TMSXEConfig-log.txt the following lines appear:

Webdav is not working with content server 11g

Hi
whenever I try to go to the webdav url in content server 11g (http://host:port/idc/idcplg/webdav) I got the following error:
"+Error 404--Not Found+
+From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:+
+10.4.5 404 Not Found+
+The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.+
+If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.+"
PS. I am using linux as OS with Weblogic 11g

Be sure you enable the Desktop Integration Suite in the Content Server Admin module.

Problems with Content Server 4 Operator Enrollment

Hello,
we just bought ACS4 and are trying to install it.
Paragraph 7.4.1 of the user manual says:
Start operatorClient and then login as prompted with the AdobeID and password that you were sent after your purchased
Adobe Content Server 4. This is the Adobe ID of the form [email protected]
We were never sent that AdobeID, so I tried the AdobeId and pwd we used to buy ACS4 to no avail, (I got an E_ADEPT_USER_UNKNOWN error)
I also tried to contact [email protected] but never received an answer.
We bought ACS4 online, downloaded it and tried to install it. Do we need to do something to receive this AdobeID?
Thanks,
Paolo Angelini
ps. I used https://eusigningservice.adobe.com/licenseadmin as the License signing URL since we're based in Europe.

Hi,
Yes, I´ve installed on windows server 2008 the content server without DB only and no cache.
Then , I´ve created the content repository in OAC0 with this data:
Document Area : Empty
Storage type: HTTP Content Server
HTTP Server: hostname.es
serv http:prt: hotname.so:1090
Script http: /ContentServer/ContentServer.dll
Sent the certificate to the content server.
I moved to CSAADMIN. there I´ve set all the parameters, certificate activation and created the repository.
When I go to the details tab I can check the content server patche level, version etc... also I´ve activated the certificate .
In the content server if set the property security to 0.
I´ve added the new repository to the tx OAC3.
Also I´ve executed the report RSCMST and this error appears: create tab content storage, connect error sqlconnect failed
Thanks a lot

Aletar KPRO para SAP Content Server (DMS)

Pessoal,
alguem já configurou o GRC para gravar no content server da SAP ?
Obrigado,
Marco

Zerbini,
vc está querendo utilizar um outro content repository com o GRC, que nao ou standard NFE_COR_DOC_REP, ou mesmo modificar esse content repository pra usar algum outro content server que nao a tabela /XNFE/CORCONT?
O NFE standard é feito pra trabalhar apenas com o content repository local. Note que nas chamadas do KPRO (function modules /XNFE/CORE_KPRO_XML_SAVE & /XNFE/CORE_KPRO_XML_READ) sao todas feitas sincronamente sem tratamento de erro de comunicacao. Em caso de erro, ele simplesmente dá um raise em alguma exception. Ou seja, se você alterasse o content repository standard pra apontar pra um content server externo, no caso de a SEFAZ te devolver o protocolo de autorização e a comunicacao com o content server falhar, vc teria simplesmente um raise da exception sendo jogado pro proxy, ou seja, um dump "na cara". Não teria restart amigável pelo monitor nem nada.
Talvez seja uma feature request a se solicitar ao time de desenvovlimetno do GRC, mas por enquanto, eu nao cosideraria essa opcao de usar um content server externo, simplesmente pelos riscos envolvidos.
Abs,
Henrique.

Problems with Content Server

I installed content server, when I access using the port of Apache Server I can log in.
But, if I use the port 4440
I get the following:
Network message format error. Unable to parse browser environment or content item.
Unable to parse properties. Name-value pairs are missing an '='.
So, I only entered using the Apache Server port and when I checked in a document I could
not make it and get this:
Content Server Request Failed
Unable to execute service CHECKIN_NEW and function Imeta.
(System Error: Unable to execute query 'Imeta(insert into DocMeta (dID, xComments, xDiscussionCount, xDiscussionType, xPartitionId, xWebFlag, xStorageRule) values(1, '', 0, 'N/A', '', '', ''))'. ORA-00904: "XSTORAGERULE": invalid identifier)
I would appreciate any help.

Hi,
Can you repost this under the "Enterprise Content Management" forum under Fusion Middleware.

DIS 11g with Content Server 10gR3

Hey
I believe that you can use the new 11g DIS client on legacy 10gR3 environments.
My questions is, do I just use the 11g client on its own, or should I load the 11g DIS component into the 10gR3 environment as well?
I cannot find any official doco on this, and there aren't any release notes witht he 11g DIS download.
Thanks,
Alec

Hi
You need to have the DIS component for 11g on UCM 10gR3 as well as the DIS 11g client to get the functionalities in complete . DIS version for 11g is 9.0.0.1173 . I have just finished doing this and see that the content retrieval and other functionalities are working perfectly fine .
Thanks

Very large files checkin to DMS/content server

Dear experts,
We have DMS with content server up and running.
However, there is a problem with very large files (up to 2GB!) - these files cannot be checked in due to extremely long upload times and maybe GUI limitations.
Does anyone have suggestions how we could get very large files into the content server ? I only want to check them in (either via DMS or directly to the content server) and then get the URL back.
best regards,
Johannes

Hi Johannes,
unfortunatly there is a limit for files regarding the Content Server which is about 2GB. Please note that such large files will cause very long upload times. If possible I would recommend you to split the files to smaller parts and try to check it in.
From my point of view it is not recommended to put files directly on the Content Server, because this could lead to inconsistencies on the Content Server.
Best regards,
Christoph

Netwearver WAS version 640 of the content server for PLM DMS

Hi,
We have SAP R/3 4.7 version & have implemented PLM-DMS with content server on WAS620.We are contemplating to use distributed content server for our requirement. Has anyone used multiple content servers? if so, could you please share your experiences.
Also, if anyone has anyone upgraded the content server to version 640, i would like you to share your experiences with me.
Thanks,

Sap R/3 4.6C - CS630 (patch-lvl15)
We do not use SapDB or MaxDB to store the document on the content server, we store the documents directly in the file system.
Our Content servers run on win2003 servers.
In my company we've currently got 15 different content servers in 10 countries.
We've got one content server and one cache server at each location for one SAP system. One physical server has 2 content servers and 1 cache server. One for our SAP production system and one for our SAP Quality test system. They use the same cache server (first we created 2 cache servers, but it was not possible for SAP to destuingish between the two, so both cache servers got used by both SAP systems)
We have also implemented a couple of add-ons:
1. Conversion and viewserver (by Seal AG). conversion server converts office documents to pdf when documents are released. Currently use only 2 conversion servers, planning to increase when the volume gets larger.
Viewserver adds stamps on pdf-files when you view or print a document.
2. Document Distribution Manager (by CENIT AG). Makes it easy to schedule prefill of cache. Also possible to move documents from one storage category to another. And Rules for transfering documents from one site to another can be made (Ex. "not allowed to move files larger than 20 MB between <certain> sites")
Perhaps I could be of assistance?
BUT, anyway, the reason I post this is because I have problems upgrading my CS630 (lvl15) to CS640 (lvl6).
Asked SAP via an OSS, and they said it was like a regular patching (stop webservice, copy *.dll files, and restart webservice). But when I try this, I can't get contact with the content server via CSADMIN in SAP. I get "HTTP error: 500 Internal Server Error"
