SAP BC End-of-life?

It appears that SAP Business Connector is effectively coming to end-of-life next March.  Can this be the case?
1)  SUN has started the Java 1.3.1 end-of-life process.  The end-of-life is currently set to March 30, 2006.  See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/download.html for details.
2)  SAP Business Connector 4.7 supports JDK 1.3.1 but has no planned support for subsequent JDKs.  See SAP Note 309834 for details.

This is true. Business connector is based on Third Party product ( Webmethods ), now SAP has it's own Exchange Infrastructure (XI) component in Netweaver. Nothing new about this.

  • 6.2 64bit windows end of life

    What is the end of life (mainstream maintenance) for 6.2 64bit windows?

    Hi Jeff,
    If you check the more information tab in the PAM matrix for WebAS 6.20, you will find the following information.
    +Installing the Java Add-In for SAP Web AS 6.40 in SAP Web AS 6.20
    Releases 6.30 and 6.40 introduced a lot of radical changes to the Java part of the SAP Web Application Server. For example, the clustering architecture was completely overhauled and remodeled using the concepts that had proved successful on the ABAP side. With SAP Web AS Java 6.30, the supported J2EE standards switched to the popular version J2EE 1.3; at the same time, the former Java development environment was replaced by the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio, which is integrated with the open-source platform Eclipse.
    SAP Web AS Java 6.20 will not be maintained beyond 2006
    Another important consideration was Sun’s decision to only maintain the Java Development Kit (JDK) 1.3 until the end of 2006. SAP Web AS Java 6.20 is invariably tied to this JDK, and therefore SAP will not be able to maintain SAP Web AS Java 6.20 beyond this point. Since the support for SAP Web AS 6.20 must - and will - continue until 2009 according to SAP’s general maintenance strategy, we needed to find a replacement for the Java part of this version of SAP Web AS.
    We recommend using SAP Web AS Java 6.40 with SAP Web AS ABAP 6.20
    For of all these reasons, we want to enable customers to upgrade from SAP Web AS Java 6.20 to SAP Web AS Java 6.40 as soon as possible. Therefore, we have decided to support combined installations of SAP Web AS ABAP 6.20 and SAP Web AS Java 6.40 as of January 2006. Consequently, we provide a new set of installation CDs/DVDs for customers who want to insert the “J2EE Add-In” into existing ABAP-only installations SAP Web AS 6.20: These CDs/DVDs are now based on SAP Web AS Java 6.40. You can download them from the Software Distribution Center at:
    &#1048707; http://service.sap.com/swdc &#1048774; Download &#1048774; Installations and Upgrades &#1048774; Entry by Application Group &#1048774; SAP NetWeaver &#1048774; SAP NetWeaver Components ( < SAP NW 04 ) &#1048774; SAP WEB AS
    The installation requires that you have done the following:
    &#1048707; Installed the downward-compatible kernel for SAP Web AS 6.40 as described in SAP Note 664679,
    &#1048707; Installed all hot packages up to number 41, and
    &#1048707; Upgraded your database to a recent version (the minimum version is 7.5.0.18 for MaxDB, 9.2.0.3 for Oracle, and V8 Fixpak 7b for DB6).
    The procedure for installing the J2EE Add-in is described in the "Installation Guide - SAP Web AS Java 6.40 SR1”. You will find the version for your database and operating system at:
    &#1048707; http://service.sap.com/instguidesnw04 &#1048774; Installation &#1048774; SAP Web AS SAP Web AS 6.40 SR1 and Related Documentation
    For official information about this change, as well as the latest instructions on how to proceed with the installation, you can also refer to SAP Note 914486.+

  • End of life cycle for BOXI 3.1 SP3

    Hi all,
    Could you please help know about End of life cycle for BOXI 3.1 (SP3)
    Thanks

    Just for future reference as well, the information can be found here:
    https://service.sap.com/pam
    Also, you may be required to put on a newer service pack to maintain support.  For example, if SP6 is released then I believe you'll either need to have SP6 or SP5 for support.

  • The installation of SAP Front-End components failed with 95 errors.

    I tried to install SAP GUI 7.20 on Windows Vista X64.  And I got this error message:
    The installation of SAP Front-End components failed with 95 errors.
    This 7.20 version used to run on this operating system fine. I reinstalled the OS, and now I got this.

    Hi,
    I suppose you reinstalled the same OS.
    Did you install the JSDK (java) afterwards. As you must be aware Java is a pre-requisite for the SAP Frontend.
    Also make sure you have set the environment variables after installing java.
    Further documentation, the SAP installation manual can be found in the u201CDOCUu201D folder of the installation software.

  • Need Acrobat Distiller but it is end of life, need a replacement product to run on windows 2012

    Need Acrobat Distiller but it is end of life, need a replacement product to run on windows 2012.  I have one software application 'Transform' that only needs to convert files to pdf and email to users.
    Which Adobe product runs on windows 2012 that will replace Distiller?

    Distiller is one of the programs available in the Acrobat Suite of programs. You must have an older version if it is at end of life. Do you have Distiller or Distiller Server. Distiller Server has been replaced by a LiveCycle Server product.

    Hi
    there are following things you can do
    1. log on to your SAP Router
    2. check entries in SAPRoutab.
    3. Telnet SAPSERV2 (Sap responding server) (Tcode oss1 will give you details of which SAP serve you are connecting ) on port 3299
    4. if you are able to telnet SAPserve from your Router server  then raise the call to SAP and ask whether they can reach your saprouter or not
    5. check /etc/services files and check for service 3299 defined or not
    6. telnet local Router server with port 3299
    7 try to download Sap Note from SNOTE in you solman system.
    all the best

  • At SAP PI End Value for element getting duplicated !!!!

    Hello Experts,
    We are currently undergoing Integration Testing for SAP-INFOR WMS , in a particular scenario for Outbound IDOC there are two line item with different Valuation types .PFA screen shot of Outbound IDOC generated at SAP R/3 . Also at SAP PI end XML file of IDOC too show two line items with  different Valuation types. But while looking at Request Message Mapping Node Payload in T-code IDX5 the outbound generated XML to external application is showing two line items with same Valuation type, in this case the the Valuation type of 1st line item is copied to second line item.
    I had looked into mapping for this interface the mapping look okay, in this case a for each loop is introduced in XSLT Mapping. in my opinion the vlaues for valuation types are not getting cleared for the second iteration.
    Kindly let me know if there is something in Mapping where we can clear value after every iteration.
    Best Regards
    Priyesh Shah

    Hi Udo Martens,
    Thanks for your valuable inputs, i rectified the error on my own after i can across a bug in XSL input file,
    While assigning source path to a target XSLT element inside a for-each loop the exact path was given for each element inside the for-each ; where else we have to provide only the name of the field.
    for ex before mapping correction.
    <Lottable02>
      <xsl:value-of select="/ZSTORE1/IDOC/Z1STOHD/Z1STOLN/BWTAR" />
      </Lottable02>
    After Mapping Correction
    <Lottable02>
      <xsl:value-of select="BWTAR" />
      </Lottable02>
    Best Regards

  • I support a very large school district currently running Firefox 3.6. What will happen at end of life date? We're in the middle of online testing this week.

    I run the test center for a very large school district with over 120k students. We've got a current deployed base of 54k client machines using Firefox 3.6. We haven't upgraded due to multiple reasons, the most important of which is removing the possibility of using In Private Browsing from the students, and dealing with plugin-updates for the non digital natives (read dumber than a bag of hammers users) that make up the majority of the client base.
    We're testing ESR now, but just found out that end of life for 3.6 is tomorrow, 4/24. We are currently in the middle of statewide online testing. The question is, what will happen tomorrow when the browser goes end of life. The ESR wiki mentions that "an update to the current version of Desktop Firefox will be offered through the Application Update Service"
    So the main question is, are my students/teachers going to get a popup telling them they have to update the browser if we have the updates already turned off? If so, can I turn it off remotely using SCCM, because it will cause all kinds of havoc.
    Please advise asap, and thanks in advance.

    We had to do some serious gymnastics to remove at least most of the ability to use IPB. We removed it from the gui, but unfortunately, if they know the hotkey, they can still bring it up. Security has some serious headaches with this, as by law they have to be able to track where students go, and going with private browsing removes their ability to do forensic work they're required to be able to do. Not a very well thought out feature from Mozilla in my opinion, but it is what it is. Successive versions have made it even more difficult to remove even the gui portion.
    We do plan to release ESR due to the aforementioned security issues, but testing has been slow.
    But thanks for the reply. I think we can turn off the updates if it isn't already done.

  • Working in PI with SAP Front end

    Hi
      Thanks for all the links and documents regarding PI. I'm learning PI through SAP Front End. Needed to know if there is a possibility that I write my own Java code and then convert them to web services or enterprise services. is this possible using SAP front end? or PI? Should I be using CE to do the coding and conversion to web services or PI is enough
    Thanks & Regards

    You require a NWDS for coding and deploying the same into Web AS JAVA engine.
    The architecture of WAS should support if you have to expose your java service as a webservice.
    You might need to implement certain Web AS webservice API so that it will expose that java service as webservice.
