SAP B1 Connecting Problem

Hi,
Iam unable to get the list of databases I have in the SQL DB 2005.and after creating a new database from the SAP B1 login screen(Change Conmpany screen) , the database is creating in the SQL server but Iam not able to see that DB in the same screen.
Pls let me know the solution If any one knows....
Thanks&Regards,

Hi,
I hope that you might have created the new company from SAP B1 thru Administration --> Choose Comapny --> New Button. If you click the New button, another new window opens in which you have entered the Company name and Database Name and you might have selected Local Settings, Chart of Accounts and base language. Then you might have defined the Posting Period for the new company. If these process are correct then the company databese will be created.
Try to check the server connectivity. Click the Change Server button and enter your Server IP address or enter your server name. While entering the IP address or Server name, System will ask for SQL Server 'sa' user name and password to connect with SAP B1.
You can view the list of databases when the connecion to server is established.

Connectivity problem in SAP B1 8.8

Hi Experts,
I have taken database back up from 2007 b server.
I have installed SAP 8.8 server in another system with windows XP operating system and i restored the database backup.
Then i upgraded the database with PL 16 file.I installed client in the same system.
Now the server is accessible from same system but when i connect from other system clients internal error 1102 is occurring.
I have checked all the prerequisites.And there is not connectivity problem.
All .net frameworks are installed in my system up to 3.5 and in client systems.
And windows installer also.
even i checked firewall and gateway.
Microsoft SQl native client is also installed in both systems.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you RAHUL MOUNDEKAR ,
But i already stopped firewall in both server and client system.
And i have read one post in forums.that by setting ipcredentials in configure security of licence manager
we can solve the issue.
But my problem is that i am unable to set ipcredentials(instead of domain name i have given ip addtress).It is saying that "setting dbcredentails is failed. error -1102 ".
Is this the main cause.
And i am using SQL Server 2005 express edition.
Is there any difference between enterprise edition and express edition of sql server.
Please help me.

Connection problem between sap bw and EAI

Hi
Please
I'd like to know why people who work on the part of my EAI project say there is a connection problem between eai and SAP BW. He explained that the connection is good at 12h AM and 16h PM the system was disconnected, he receive this error message:
System.ServiceModel.Security.MessageSecurityException: The HTTP request is Unauthorized with customer authentication scheme 'Basic'. The authentication header received from the server was' Basic realm = "SAP NetWeaver Application Server [DB1/100].
I like to know if this is a problem with sap bw (misconfiguration of authorisations) or at the eai.
Cordialy

Hello,
we have 2 possiblities in BW to get data into BW.
1) pull
2) push
I understodd that you want to push data to BW. Please have a look into the Howto paper: https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/bi.sdn?contenttype=url&content=/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sapportals.km.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how to send xml data to bw
and
https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/bi.sdn?contenttype=url&content=/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sapportals.km.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how to integrate bw to xi.pdf
If you want to connect an external system to BW and extract data to BW and the BW system is the leading system.
You need a RFC server, or UD connect (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/943de6c3-0401-0010-b7a4-8b1af193f642) or you can use db connect or you can extract flat files.
All of these possibilies are decribed in the online help and in howto papers.
hope this helps

Content Server connection problems

SAP Content Server connection problems
I have installed the SAP Content Server on a Windows 2003 server. I connected to the Max DB on the remote server from Database Manager on my PC. I created repositories in R/3 in OAC0 and CSADMIN and saved documents to the Content Server. This all took a few hours from O/S install to saving a document in the repository, so I do understand the basics of the Content Server and Max DB.
Unfortunately we are not going to use Windows; we will be running this on UNIX. Therefore I'm trying it out on a Linux system while I wait for the AIX system to be available. It's been a long road but I have finally gotten the install to finish 'successfully' however I can't connect from R/3.
When I run the check http://10.XXX.YYY.ZZZ:1090/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo from the browser on the Linux host I get back a good status as shown below:
serverType="SAP HTTP Content Server";serverVendorId="SAP AG";serverVersion="640";serverPatch="0";serverBuild="16";pVersion="0046";serverStatus="running";serverDate="2008-03-25";serverTime="22:39:45";startUpDate="2008-03-25";startUpTime="22:32:21";lastAccessDate="2008-03-25";lastAccessTime="22:38:33";
However when I do this from any my PC it won't connect. (Of course the real problem is I can't connect from R/3.)
If I try the same URL from a different user session on the same Content Server Linux host I get the same good status.
I thought maybe the httpd.conf file was wrong so I tried:
Listen 0.0.0.0:1090
In cs.conf I tried commenting out AdminSecurity & AdminSecurityGroup.
I also changed StorageDriver from SAPDBStorage to FSStorage.
I don't know if this is related or just another problem to tackle once I can get through this one. I was not able to add the new system to the Database Manager. I get the error "-4 could not connect to socket [10060]".
Thanks to all for any help. Points will dutifully be rewarded.
David

Hi Henk,
It looks like I am dumber than a rock. The firewall was indeed active on the Linux host. I turned it off and can now do the http connection test to the Content Server. (I awarded very helpful points.)
I still can't connect to the database with the Database Manager however the message has changed; it now says "-4 XSERVER might be inactive". I just turned off the firewall so I have a few things to try, like figure out how to start MaxDB without the DB Manager. I'll post my progress. Thanks Henk.
David
Edited by: Dave Hill on Mar 28, 2008 12:00 AM
Now I have installed the Database Studion on my PC. No I'm getting this message when I try to connect to the host/database on the Linux system: "Cannot connect to host 10.XXX.XXX.XXX:7210 [Connection refused: connect], -813."
Does MaxDB need to be started to connect? Any idea how to start it manually? Thanks,
David
Edited by: Dave Hill on Mar 28, 2008 1:06 AM
Ah, at long last. There's this tiny yet very important little program called x_server that SAP didn't include in the SAP Content Server install guide. This needs to be running in order for anything to connect. I'm sure most of you know about it but for the rest you can find it in:
/sapdb/programs/bin
Then type
./x_server start
I'm not sure what user it should run under but I started it as the sdb user.
You could automate the database startup with a script. See http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/e9/005dac1592496783e26133eb7fad0b/frameset.htm
Thank you Henk, I'll call this problem solved and award points.

Our environment is SRM 5.5 server with 2 R/3 backend systems. One of the R/3 systems is in another country. We happen to have RFC problems during the communication between the SRM and R/3 server.
Below you can find the SM21 log related to an operation on SRM server. What might be the reason for this problem? Does anyone know the solution?

SAP R3 Connection in Data Services - Configuration is

Dear all,
We are having an error when going through the steps in the configuration of BusinessObjects Data Services 3.2 with R3. The error is in the SAP R3 server.
Herewith the steps in regular font (based on the SAP BusinessObjects guide) and our output results in bold. If you can take a look on it, it will be great for us.
To install provided functions using the CTS system:
1. Copy the provided transport files to the appropriate directories on the SAP server.
Installing Functions on the SAP Server Installing the functions using CTS
Note:
In these steps, 900XXX.SXX is a variable. To substitute the correct file name for the current release, see the readme.txt file in the ...\DataServices\admin\R3_Functions\transport directory.
- Copy R900XXX.SXX to the /usr/sap/trans/data directory.
- Copy K900XXX.SXX to the /usr/sap/trans/cofiles directory.
As we have R3 connection we have moved the R63 file. Complete name of the files are:
- R900086.R63
- K900086.R63
2. Log on to the SAP server and run the transaction /nSE37 to determine if function group ZAW0 already exists. The CTS system will install the Data Services functions into a single function group ZAW0 that it automatically creates on the SAP server if it does not already exist.
- If function group ZAW0 exists and contains previously installed Data Services functions, add an unconditional mode 2 option (parameter U2) to the tp import command described in step 4 below (tpimport S<xx>K900<xxx> <SID> U2).
- If function group ZAW0 exists and is used for another purpose, modify the transport file to use a different function group (such as ZAW1) to install the Data Services functions. Make sure the function group you use does not already exist in your system.
- If you are installing the transport files on a Unicode-enabled SAP server, manually create the function group ZAW0 with the Unicode attribute set.
In our case we have found there is already a ZAW0 created -> nothing to do in this step
3. From a command window, run the following transport command:
- tp addtobuffer S<xx>K900<xxx> <SID>
(where SID is the SAP system ID)
You receive the response:
This is tp version <SAP TP and SAP versions> for <database type> database.
Addtobuffer successful for S<xx>K900<xxx> tp finished with a return code: 0 meaning:
Everything OK
This is the command we have run and the error retrieve
The SID is NDV.
C:\tp addtobuffer R63k900086 NDV
This is tp version 372.04.57 (release 700, unicode enabled)
E-TPSETTINGS could not be opened.
EXIT
Error in TPSETTINGS: transdir not set.
tp returncode summary:
TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0
ERRORS: Highest tp internal error was: 0208
tp finished with return code: 208
meaning:
error in transportprofil (param missing, unknown, ....)
We have modified the statement with different names for the R63 file, but we didnu2019t success. We are retrieving same error.
We also have applied the command in the following link:
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-basis/etpsettings-could-not-be-opened-875506
and retrieve another error. The following step would be doing the u201CSAPEVTPATHu201D downloading, but, we are not sure if this would fix the issue or if the issue is related to something else.
4. Run the next transport command:
tp import S<xx>K900<xxx> <SID>
(where SID is the SAP System ID)
We couldnu2019t reach this point, as we are having an error in the command below.
Thanks for your help on this!

There is a problem in the transport file supplied with BODS installation folder. Pls refer to the SAP Note :
1616269 - Problems when installing Data Services 4.0 SAP transport files (900155.R63)
We have used the new transport files but we are still getting the below warnings in the log files and it returned with return code 4 :
Maximum length ("255") for "CHAR" in transparent tables exceeded
The SAP Note 1446648 - Warning Messages installing SAP R3 transports for Data Services sayou can ignore those warnings but we are still not able to see the ZAW0 Function group in SE37.
Let me know if you are able to do it successfully.

PI to MDM Connection Problem.

Hi Experts;
I have a connection Problem. I Sent data from r3 to PI System.PI System Convert Idoc to xml and sent to mdm server but PI cannot connect to mdm server. I Controled my connection information ip and mdm repository name is true . but I dont see ServerUser Id .
How I see and change this server user ?
Can you help me !
"MDM Adapter listener could not start due to: Can not create repository session '<server=192.168.10.35 serverUser=Admin repository=p0349 user=Admin>' caused by: Connection Failed: Cannot create connection to MDM Server '192.168.10.35' for one of the following reasons: (1) server does not exist, (2) server is not started, or (3) input/output problem while creating connection, error code: UnknownServer"

Hi Turgut,
How I see and change this server user ? As scenario is R/3>PI>MDM.
You need to look into your receiver Communication channel in Integration Directory (Integration Builder) where you have settings for defining MDM Server, Repository , Repository User and Password , Port Code of the Outbound MDM port etc.
Please find the below link to check settings for Setting Up Inbound Messaging into MDM.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/48/9854884d3217cee10000000a421937/content.htm
There is no Server User ID but it is Repository User and Password along with other parameters in Communication channel.
Note: Make Sure that your MDM Import Server is also running.

Extraction from SAP, hidden fields problem

Hi Expeerts,
I have the following problem / question:
From an SAP Datasource (2lis_11_vaitm) we have some fileds, those are HIDED, and we need them. This is a central SAP, and a lot of BW systems connect to this SAP.
The problem is, that we need a field from that datasource (and other BWs do not need), that has 'HIDDEN' option. The SAP side is afraid of having problem, when they just uncheck that option. (TELF1; KONDA fields we need).
Does anyone know, what is the affects on other BW systems, when we unhide this fields? Of course we load with delta from this source.
If a field is hidden in SBIW-Maintain Datasources, am I right, that the delta does not collect those fields, or it is collected, just not sent to BW systems?
Any good idea, how can we get that fields in other way, because it seems, that the datasource cannot be modifyed, because of the other countries' BWs, connected to teh centra SAP.
I hope i were clear, but if not, please ask me.
Thanks for Your help.

Hi,

--> As hidden fields are already available in extract strucute, unhiding will not create any problem. As far as i know hidden means it will transfer data from extract structure to further.
--> You can try pulling this particular data using generic datasource. OR
--> Enhance datasource by adding required fields and use. OR
--> Unhide files and use.
Note: Bit careful while transpporting datasource to production as time stamp changes.

Not Converted : Free-hand SQL connection problem

While converting a Free Hand SQL report from Desktop Intelligence to Web Intelligence report in BI XI 3.1, I am faced with the problem
Not Converted : <REPNAME> - Free-hand SQL connection problem
It is be noted that there are some other Free Hand SQL Reports, that go converted and published without any error. The subject report has two Data Providers; one referring to the Universe and other from the Free Hand SQL tagged to a DB Connection

Ajay,
Some more points that can be of consideration to you to help understand my problems.
The conversion from DeskI to WebI is in the same version BI XI 3.1 and not to BI 4.0 in which Free Hand SQLs is not supported.
I have converted one other Free Hand SQL Report with an error "Partially Converted : <REPNAME2> - Conditional or permanent Hide Header not available in Web Intelligence", for which I had to edit the report in InfoView and un-tick the "Show When Empty" property of the table ( http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=197157&view=next&sid=e6840aafa2d1267c66dae164d1dbf9db ). I think the solution mentioned in this link does not meet the purpose as the table is not displayed in the design time after the above untick.
Coming back to our issue, further probing into this aspect I stumbled upon this link meant for RCT for BI 4.0 version
https://csdwportal.dhhs.state.nc.us/downloads/Business%20Objects%20XI%20R4.0%20Docs/SAP%20BusinessObjects%20Report%20Con…
where in Section 3.4.9, there is a mention of the limitation in conversion as under
"Conversion of reports with free-hand SQL or stored procedures is only possible in Connected mode, since the Report Conversion Tool needs to use the secured connection to the database that is saved in the CMS."
I want to how the secured connection to the database in REPNAME2 is different from the subject report REPNAME1 as REPNAME2 got partially converted. The error reported for Subject report is "Free Hand SQL Connection Problem" and not conversion problem which can occur after the connection is established.
I did check the security properties of various FHSQL connections in the CMC and all of them are identical in nature.
Please advise

Crystal Reports and SAP BW Connectivity for OLAP

Hello,
Anybody created Crystal reports off SAP BW Infocubes? For some reason I am not able to create or configure BW sever connection. I installed Crystal reports and SAP enhance cd for OLAP.
Thanks
Tom

Hello,
I was able to connect and create Crystal report based on Bex query..no connection problem there. But, reporting directly off infocubes, the server type "SAP Business Information Warehouse"(add server option in OLAP connection Browser) not showing up in list of values.
1. I released Info query for PLE DB for OLAP as per
   user's guide.
2. The manual says you have to configure SAP BW server
   log on? For Bex query(Crystal) all available servers
   automatically available
Thanks
