SAP Connector Runtime Error

Question

Hello!
I'm trying to get the SAP conntector to work.
I try to run the sample code from the PDK documentation.
It compiles fine, but when I run the sample code in the portal I get a runtime error (sorry it's in german):
Portal-Laufzeitfehler
Fehler aufgetreten bei der Verarbeitung eines Request für :
iView : N/A
Komponentenname : N/A
com/sapportals/portal/ivs/cg/IConnectorService.
Exception id: 09:54_17/11/04_0001
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
This is the code that causes the error:
IConnectorService connectorservice = (IConnectorService)PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService( IConnectorService.KEY);
IConnectorGatewayService cgService = connectorservice.getIConnectorGatewayService();
Any ideas how I can get this code to work?

I changed the portalapp.xml in my project. It seems, your problem is somewhere else. You are sure that your system is working? (You have tried the JNDI example and tested the system with a transaction iView)
The only thing I can do now, is provide you with my code:
try {
     IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
     IService iService = request.getService(IConnectorService.KEY);
     IConnectorGatewayService cgService=(IConnectorGatewayService) iService;
     ConnectionProperties prop = new ConnectionProperties(request.getLocale(),request.getUser());
     IConnection connection = cgService.getConnection("SAP_R3_ALIAS", prop);
} catch(Exception ex) {}
