SAP Authentication doesn't come on CMC and Infoview page

Hello Guru,
I am new to BOE installation. I have installed BOEnterprise 3.1, FP 3.5 & SAP IK 3.1, FP 3.5. I am not getting Authentication as "SAP" on CMC and Infoview.
I don't have PartnerPlatformService in my installation directory as well as the drive where i installed BO Enterprise.
1. C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\warfiles\WebApps
2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps
I am not able to find war files and PartnerPlatformService on the above two paths. Is it the main reason behind the SAP Authentication ? What changes do i have do to to get SAP as Authentication ? If i don't have PartnerPlatformService anywhere then from where do i find it and how to deploy it ?
Regards,
Komik Shah

Hi Ingo,
Thanks!!! I checked SAP JCO file deployment before and it is available on server.
I also read the document prepared by you for installation of SAP IK. I followed all the steps but still not getting SAP as Authentication.
What i see as difference is "I don't have PartnerPlatformService" in my BO Enterprise installation directory and that is why it is not seen on the C drive where i installed Business Objects. I have other customers where i have installed BO Edge series and i can see SAP as Authentication and there i could also find PartnerPlatformService in Installation Directory as well as C drive.
If i don't have "PartnerPlatformService" in my BO Enterprise directory then how should i get it ?
Thanks again for your help

SAP Authentication problem when loggin into CMC

Hi,
I've recently started getting the following error when using SAP authentication to log-in to Designer or CMC:
Account information not recognized: All of your system's 0 Concurrent Access Licenses are in use at this time or your system's license key has expired. Try again later or contact your administrator to obtain additional licenses. (FWB 00014)
This is a pilot system so had intially entered trial licence keys, but some time back had changed these to the permanent equivalent in CMC. All was working but now get this error.
When it first appeared I noticed that the entry in registry editor did not match permanent licence key so changed this there and also in CMC - Authentication have changed licence type from concurrent to named users per our licence agreement.
This has not resolved the problem and struggling to find any other recommended solutions, any help greatly appreciated.
I'm running BOE XI 3.1 at SP3 with SAP integration kit and crystal 2008.
Thanks in advance
Ad

Thanks Seb,
All a bit odd, initially deleted licence key and replaced with a trial NUL licence, and got the same errors. Then tried with trial CPU which worked.
Also didn't make any changes to the CMC Authentication (still named licences) when inputting the CPU licence key but this seemed to have any effect.
Have you seen this behaviour before?

SAP authentication tab not enabled

Hi,
we have installed the bo xi r2 & the integration kit successfully on Unix server but when I log on to the CMC page. The SAP authentication tab doesn't get highlighted. what can we do so that I can edit the SAP authentication settings. Please give me some pointers to resolve this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Phani.

Ok, the issue you face is usually related to the deployment of your SAP Java connector within your App Server. I recommend to go thru the deployment guide step by step again and if you still face the issue create a support message with SAP BO support. The support guys from the SAP Int Team should be able to connect remotely to you system and verify the deployment.
I hope this helps,
Tim

SAP B1 Client not open

Hi all,
I try to upgrade the SAP for one of my client from SAP 2005b Pl 42 to SAP 2007b PL 10. The update process in the server is over and it is fine.
But for my Client machines the upgrade is running fine but after upgrade i will not see any databases on it, when i try to give the Server name and its username and password there will be a error msg appears as " internal error"
I found the reason that in Server machine the choose company window has a server name as MSSQL_2005 but in client machines it will appear as MSSQL. I think this is the reason for the problem,
Please guide me to solve the issue
Thanks in advance
Sundar

Hi Sundar,
Please check any firewall and anti virus software is running of blocking the server and client communication. If it is so remove that blocking from the firewall list. If the same problem is persists again please install sql server native client in your client system.
After the installation is over, try to connect it again. Same problem is happening again uninstall the client in your machine and do the following
Goto run -- %temp% - delete all files (Particularly try to delete SM_OBS_DLL)
Goto Run u2013Temp u2013 Delete all files.
restart the machine and install the client.
This will solve the problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Senthil Maruthappan.

Error while configuring SAP authentication in CMC

Hi,
I am trying to set up SAP authentication in CMC to a SAPBI system to which I am able to connect successfully in Designer and Voyager. I have the SAP Integration KIT also installed.
As a first step I created Entitlement and then filled up the options tab ( Have checked the option Automatically Import Users).
But when I click on Role Import Tab, I get the following error.
com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
Is it because I need to install SAP JCo? Please suggest.
If I need install SAP JCo is it freely available? Which version has to be installed?
Any suggestions will surely help.
Thanks in advance,
Suma

Same issue here.
Business Objects Enterprise 3.0 is installed on a dedicated machine. I have followed the documented installation procedure, step by step, but I am still facing two issues:
#1. SAP Authentication does not work. When trying to log into InfoView using SAP Authentication, I get the following error:
Account information not recognized:
CSecSAPR3Binding::XRFCCnxBroker::BorrowConnection() failed. See following log entries for details.
Failed while trying to log on to SAP system.
The following RFC error was returned: [Group, Key, Message]:
[103, "RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE", "Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)"].
The entitlement system has therefore been disabled in memory.
This may be because the SAP system is unavailable or because the credentials are invalid.
The entitlement system has to be re-enabled before it can be used again.
#2. BOE is unable to import the SAP roles (from CMC SAP Authentication configuration). The application throws the following error:
An error has occurred:
com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
I am using JCo v 2.1.8. sapjco.jar was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\common\lib and sapjcorfc.dll was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86. librfc32.dll was installed in a prior step by the SAP Front End, and the file exists in C:\Windows\system32.
Any other ideas?

SAP Authentication not available

Hello together!
on a BOE-System (XI 3.1, SP3, FP 3.5) is the SAP Authentication for the InfoView- and the CMC-logon not available. I think the problem is that they haven't installed the SAPJCO correct or did some other mistakes during the installation and configuration process. Until now I tried the following because to install and configurate the system new is not really a opportunity:
check if in the CMC the SAP Authentication is enable
check in the web.xml if the authentication.visible is set to true
copied the sapjco.jar into the Tomcat55\shared\lib and Tomcat55\common\lib
copied the two *.dll from the SAPJCO to the windows\system32 folder
set the classpath
redeployed the Apps: InfoViewApp, InfoviewAppActions, CmcApp, CmcAppActions, PartnerPlatformServices, SAP, OpenDocument and dswsbobje
run the partnercafinstall.bat
and restart the tomcat and the Server Intelligence Agent
Btw the Integration Kit for SAP works - it's just the problem with the missing authentication method.
Another question depending on that problem (maybe) regards the BW Publisher: There is a role for publishing content, this role have the essential rights and the role is added to the corresponding SAP system folder under the SAP structure in the CMC. But if you want to piblish a Crystal Reports report as a BW-User that is a member of the role but is not imported in the CMC you get the error EAS 30001(An error occurred when synchronizing folder hierarchy for role) which means that the user does not have sufficient rights to publish reports. If I put the role to the administrator group everything works fine except that the reports creates a folder structure SAP\2.0\*SYSTEM\New Object11552\New Object11553\REPORT*. Why are the folder "New Object11552" and "New Object11553" created and what's the problem with the rights?
I appreciate any hints what else I can do - because as I mentioned above a complete new-install is not really a opportunity.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Heiko and Ingo for your responses!
@Heiko
Hi Heiko, I couldn't find the SAP JCO 2.1.9 version to download - so I tried the 2.1.10 version; but still the same problem
@Ingo
Hi Ingo,
>>so the SAP Authentication in the CMC is available and you are able to import the SAP Roles ?
yes, the SAP Authentication in the CMC is available and I'm able to import SAP roles - that works absolutely fine; it's just that users can't select the SAP-Authentication method for the logon.
>>EAS 30001
ok, that was also my idea that it is important that the sap user who want's to publish content is imported in the cmc - but because of the problem that the sap authentication is not available at logon that's currently not possible. So, I think if this problem is solved - the problem with EAS 30001 is also gone.
>>Make sure the role as descriptions in transaction PFCG in all the languages that you use for publishing
you're absolutely correct - that was the problem! Thanks Ingo! Could you explain what are the steps I have to do to translate the description of a role in transaction SE63 after I created the role in the transaction PFCG or do you have a link with the HowTo for me? Hope we'll also find a solution for the missing SAP-Authentication method.

Transaction iView(from remote source) does not open a new SAP session

Hi All,
We are on portal 7.4 and are calling a transaction from ECC system. Within the transaction we have a button which displays graphs based on the output of the transaction. Since we are calling this transaction from portal, a new session does not open after clicking on this button.
In order to enable a new session, I have changed the configuration for 'disable new session buttons in SAP GUI' to false yet the new SAP session does not open. I have also verified the webgui setting and ensured that we do not have '~singletransaction' maintained, yet we are unable to enable the new session. Could you kindly suggest on how I can get this button to function?
Additional inputs:
- Referred to note 125814 for changing the new sessions value.
- Tried changing the iview type to 'SAP GUI for window' from SAP HTML type(which was default).
- In case I type '/o' in the command box for SAP, it gives me a 'maximum sessions reached' message, but this message does not come when I click on this button. In fact, nothing happens after I click on the button.
I still think there might be a possibility to enable this, however, I seek your inputs on this.
Awaiting response...
Warm Regards,
Vinay

Hi Harini,
thanks for your answer!
I can tell you that the same command used from the SAP Client open a new session with the same transaction...
Is strange that from the portal it has a different behaviour...
Best Regards

SAP Authentication on Polestar/BOBJ EXPLORER XI 3.1 SP1

Hi there,
I've installed Business Objects Edge 3.1 + BOBJ EXPLORER XI 3.1 SP1 + SAP IK 3.1. I do see SAP Authentication type on CMC and Infoview, but not on polestar. I am wondering if I missed something during my install or is it something not supported on Polestar?
Other applications installed on the same box are:
Crystal Reports + Xcelsius + Live Office 3.1
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi,
I think you have to "Enable SAP authentication" for the SAP BOBJ Explorer, if it is not already done.
SAP authentication is not avialable by default into the SAP BOBJ Explorer.
To do this:
a- Backup the file "default.settings.properties".
This file is located into the folder "$BOBJDIR/tomcat/webapps/polestar/WEB-INF/classes/".
b- Edit "default.settings.properties".
Replace :
show.sapsystem.name=false
disable.sapsystem.name=true
default.sapclient.name=
show.sapclient.name=false
disable.sapclient.name=true
default.authentication.method=secEnterprise
authentications=secEnterprise,secWinAD,secLDAP
by:
show.sapsystem.name=true
disable.sapsystem.name=false
default.sapclient.name=
show.sapclient.name=true
disable.sapclient.name=false
default.authentication.method=secEnterprise
authentications=secEnterprise,secWinAD,secLDAP,secSAPR3
Hope this helps,
Gregory

SAP authentication and SSO into BI4 with multiple SAP systems

We have already setup SAP authentication and SSO between ECC6 and BI4, e.g. to run CR 2011 reports with data based on ECC infosets, or BEx (operational BI on ECC). ECC is the main point of entry for users, so ECC user accounts and role imports are used in BI4.
Now if we add BW to this, with Crystal or WebI or Analysis OLAP sourcing data from BW, can we still leverage detailed authorizations in BW on the corresponding BW user - with user accounts and role imports in BI4 still being ECC-based?

Hi,
Let's say the trust relationship is setup between those systems. Then the simple example is to use Enterprise authentication in BI4, and assertion tickets are issued when making requests to ECC or BW. I assume LDAP/AD authentication would work as well.
>> You also have to setup trust between the BI 4 and ECC & between BI4 and BW. Thats part of the setup for the SSO Token Service.
But does this scenario rule out SAP authentication or not? I was hoping that I can still logon to BI4 with an ECC-issued logon ticket, and then BI4 would nevertheless issue assertion tickets for my BW alias.
>> And that is still possible. Setup the SSO Token Service, setup the aliases for the users. then you could logon with ECC credentials and run a BW report because the token service would then generate the token towards the BW system.

Cannot open cmc sap authentication - role and alias update failing

I have two business objects environments. For two of them I am failing to login to a specific part of CMC.
I want to go to Authentication tab, SAP authentication. The page is not opening.
I have on both environments 500.000 + Failed jobs. (settings - view global system metrics).
I have the feeling my CRYSTAL user account's password has expired and the 500k+ failed schedules are due to the scheduled update of roles and aliases which is failing.
Can anybody tell me how to cleanup these 500k events, and hopefully being able to access my sap authentication again (and update the password for crystal user? They cannot be deleted from instance manager.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Dear Seb. I tried. No result. Let me share some screenshots to desribe my issue.
what did I also try: redeploying BOE webapplication. Without success.
My question is: how do I remove these failed instances from the system? Because I think that is a start of the solution.
.. the admintoos entry (from upgrade management tool) was still increasing... It runs awfully long.

Need SAP Authentication option when using the Open document URL methos

Hi Experts,
I had published a report into the BO Server. I can able to Login to the CMC & Info view through SAP Authentication. But, when I Try to Open the Report through the Open document or viewrpt URL, I am not getting the SAP option in the Authentication Drop down box. Kindly give me the solution to login through the SAP Authentication In the URL Method. Thanks for your support in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Shiva

Hi,
the option has been hidden by default.
Navigate to <BO_INSTALL_DIR>Tomcat55/webapps/openDocument/WEB-INF
Open the web.xml file and search for "authentication.visible". Set the parameter from "false" to "true".
Restart your Tomcat and you should be fine.

Problem in CMC login with SAP authentication type

Hi,
We have installed the SAP Integration kit successfully for BO XI R2 & when I logon to CMC i am able to enable the SAP authentication and import the roles from the SAP BW system as well. But when I try to login into CMC using the 'Authentication type' as SAP it doesn't display the textboxes for entering System ID and Client details. Can you please tell me how to fix this?
Also I see that the CMC & Infoview authentication type drop down list are not the same. The CMC has the authentication types available as 'SAP,LDAP & Enterprise' where as Infoview has 'Enterprise, LDAP & AD'.
Is this an issue with the Plugins? do i need to do some settings on the Tomcat ?
Please help me out in this..
Thanks in advance!
Phani.

Thanks for your update Jac...yes thats correct. Also I had to include authPlugExt.properties file in the tomcat/shared/classes, which i did not include previously. The SAP infoview is working fine now.
Just one more question, in CMC login doesn't the SAP authentication require sap system & client id as its inputs? (in XI R2). I noticed that I was able to login with SAP user id's (without mentioning system details) , that have been added when I have imported the SAP roles to BO.

No logical sytem found in the drop down under SAP authentication in CMC

Application Server e.g. yourservername
System number e.g. 00
Username e.g. Crystal
Password e.g Password
and Language e.g. EN
Press Update and and go to the Role Import tab. Import your role and don't forget the set the checkbox Enable SAP Authentication under the Options tab when using sap authentication.

Hello,
We are trying to integrate existing BO environment in our company with existing BW installation.
BO Environment - 3.1
BW/ECC Environment - (BW - BI 7.0 SP20, ECC 6.0)
So got the pre-requisites completed and the transports imported into both BW and ECC environments. Upon these steps we went ahead and installed the integration kit for 3.1 system.
There were no error messages, after we completed the installation went into infoview and in the authentication drop down checked to see if I can get "SAP" in there....which it did. So, I am assuming there were no issues till this point which we might have missed out.
Upon this, when I went into SAP authentication in CMC and double clicked on SAP and in the next screen clicked on "NEW" and added in the application server, system number, id and password and updated it...this automatically updated the logical system.
But when I go into the role import, it gives me the following error message....
Exception in JSP: /jsp/auth/sapsec_import_role.jsp:22:19:20: <%21:string context.........lot of other message
The only thing is we have not assigned the CRYSTAL_ENTITLEMENT role to it as we are at this point only trying to see if we can log into webi...
Can you please help me out on this.
Thanks
Dharma.
