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

Remote Desktop Connection - cannot proceed because authentication is not enabled

Hello,
I try to connect via RDP from a Windows Server 2008 R2 to another 2008 R2 Server.
I always get the error message.
The connection cannot proceed because authentication is not enabled and the remote computer requires than authentication be enabled to connect.
On the target machine the Remote Settings are set to:
Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop.
Firewall is disabled on both servers.
Therefor I do not understand why I get an error message, that authentication is required.
The target box is a nearly fresh syspreped machine with all current Hotfixes installed.
I already found a lot of people having that problem by using XP (old RDP client), but no one seems to have this problem when connecting from 2008 R2 to 2008 R2.
Thank you very much in advance for every hint.

Hi Matthias,
First I would like to confirm if you have deployed RDS (Remote Desktop Services) and you got the error, if so, please check this option
TS Configuration, >> RDP-Tcp Properties >> change the Security Layer to "Negotiate"
Then Recycle the TS Gateway service.
Refer to:
Unable to connect to Server using the Remote Web Workplace (RWW) Small Business Server 2008
If this issue has nothing to do with RDS, and I suppose you used the cmd "mstsc" to remote access. This issue may also occur because of the version of mstsc, please make sure it has been upgraded to the new version.
In addition, Did you have another newer server available like Server 2012? So we can test and try to use Server 2012 to remote access Server 2008 R2, and check if the issue persists.
If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.

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.

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 Method Missing

Dear Experts, I have been having this problem for sometime. I have redone the whole work again just to make sure I'm not missing anything. Any help is appreciated.
I'm on BO XI R2, with Tomcat 5.0,27, Windows 2003 environment, Java connector 2.1.8,
I'm missing SAP authentication method in the Java InfoView. I have Enterprise, LDAP and WinAD in the list but not SAP authentication. While my Java Infoview for SAP works just fine.
Also with IIS, the .NET InfoView does have SAP authentication and it works fine as well.
Kindly assist me in fixing this.
BTW, which configuration file in tomcat hold this info about authentication methods?

8 --> Configured the Kerberos Windows AD Authentication in BOE System (these includes the steps to apply it on IIS and Java Application Servers (Tomcat)) by following the
         instructions in BusinessObjects Enterpriseu2122 XI Release 2 Deployment and Configuration Guide, Chapter 13
9 --> Installed Live Office Client 11.5.8.826 (server and client component on the same machine)
       a) Enabled Live Office client components (by running the enable_addin.exe utility)
       b) Running side-by-side Live Office installations (enable the Live Office Add-In)
10 --> Install Xcelsius 2008, Version 12.1.0.247
11 --> Install BusinessObjects XI Release 2 Integration Kit for SAP SP1
12 --> Install BusinessObjects XI R2 Service Pack 2 for Integration Kits
13 --> Make sure that BOE Sample Reports is imported to the installed BOE system
14 --> Configured and Tested IIS for SAP Authentication with SSO for SAP InfoView in BI system and
           SAP Enterprise System to point to the installed BOE system
15 --> Configure Tomcat (Web.config files) to use BOE Cluster Name & SAP Authentication with SSO
          enabled for SAP InfoView site when it is used from the SAP Enterprise Portal
16 -->Tested to logon to Live Office with SAP Authentication. SAP Authentication is missing in the Live
         Office like Java InfoView
Kindly point out to me where I'm going wrong?

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,

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.

Can we add new logical system in Entitlement tab in SAP Authentication.

Hi ,
We already Installed and configured sap integration kit and every thing works fine. My question is as of now we connected our sap BW Dev system to BOBJ but we would like to connect to BW Prod System to same BOBJ System. What are the steps we need to follow to do this.
Can we just add the new logical system in entitlement tab of sap authentication in BOBJ 3.1? and import the roles and login to BOBJ USING THE Newly added SYSTEM Credentials. Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
SK.

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for the information.
Are there any specific steps you need to follow when you are adding one more system to sap authentication. can you please give the steps we need to follow to setup this in right way. Thanks in advance.
Is there any thing we need to configure on sap side other than sap logon ticket parametre. If you can please provide the steps it will be great. Thankyou very much In advance.
Thanks,
SK.

Why is the 'Choose icon...' button in the Options tab of the field property dialog box not enabled?

I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional XI running on Windows 8.
This “feature” has been bugging me for some time now. I remember it happening when I used Acrobat 9 Professional (Windows XP) and it is still happening in Acrobat XI Professional. I think I figured out a situation when I can reproduce this “feature” conistently and I hope someone fixes this.
Try the following and see what happens:
1. Acrobat Professional is not open.
2. Launch Word and start editing a document (or some other authoring tool that can generete PDF document).
3. After editing the document, generate a PDF version of the document.
4. Launch Acrobat Professional and edit the PDF document generated in 3.
5. Add a button.
6. View the button's properties.
7. Change the Fill Color property in the Appearance tab to none.
8. Change the Layout in the Options tab to Icon only.
Now here is what bugs be. Shouldn’t the 'Choose Icon ...' button be enabled? It is not enabled after step 8. It is possible that 'Choose Icon ...' button is enabled for some of you. I this case, it would be nice if at least one of you who experience the same bug say so in this thread so that Adobe doesn't think I am sending them on a wild goose chase.
I can enable it by selecting a different tab and then returning to the Options tab. A similar thing happens when reverting back from 'Icon only' to 'Label only' but I am not sure how to reconstruct a scenario for this one.
Here is the dialog box for one instance when I noticed the bug.
Regards,
John

You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.
