SAP JRA and JBoss again

Hi there,
I like to use SAP JRA within a JBoss Application Server, I use the rar-file provided by Web AS. I knew that there were other posts regarding this topic, but they did not really answer my question:
The Thread
JCO and JRA under JBoss
says:
u201Cthat you use in JBoss the standalone JCO. But JRA needs the JCO provided withing SAP Web AS.u201C
I get the same error mentioned in the Thread above. Does the above mentioned mean if I use the JCO provided within SAP WEB AS in JBoss than this will work? Iu2019m really confused can you help me??
Thank you all!!

A few more hints, the quick version
JRA via BLS logfiles are usually placed in
C:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\, in my case called dev_rfc.trc.
JRA Connections can be found and verified with the following tool.
http://localhost:port -> Web dynpro -> Web dynpro console -> Jco connection pools.
In Visual administrator -> Server0 -> Services -> Connector container -> Your JRA name. Select the connection name belov and select tab Managed connection factory, then properties.
Here you can add one of the following
Trace - Enable/disable trace on all middleware layers(true or false). On default is false.
TraceRFC - Enable/disable RFC trace (true or false). On default is false.
TraceJCO - Enable/disable JCO trace (0 for none, 10 for highest level). On default 0. Type Integer.
TraceJRA - Enable/disable JRA trace (0 for none, 10 for highest level). On default 0. Type Integer.
Which enables further logging, also found in the dir.
C:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\.

SAP JRA on JBoss AS

Hi there,
I am trying to call BAPI methods on an ECC server from inside an Java EE server (JBoss AS). I can use JCO to accomplish this, and I am interested in using connection pools. I do know that JCO has built-in mechanisms in handling this (JCO connection pools), but upon reading the SAP JRA, I thought that that would be a much more elegant and proper solution, given that it complies with JCA. Can JRA be used on JBoss? If anyone can point me to useful information on integrating this with JBoss and some code examples it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

hi jose,
we can integrate the portal of jboss in one side and sap ep in other side and the we can make the connection as two way by using fedarated network portal. jboss portal user can make the request from jboss portal he can get the data from sap portal

JCO and JRA under JBoss

Hi,
I'm using Eclipse 3.2 and JBoss 4.0.4.GA and I want to deploy wars on my JBoss that have to connect to one of our SAP servers (kernel 640 138, hot-pack base 620 56, abap 620 56, appli 470 25 and IS-U 472 10 (and some others hot packages).

Also I copy the sapjra.rar founded in a WAS 640. It includes a sapjra.jar and a META-INF directory which contains 2 xml files and a manifest.mf. I didn't modify the connector-j2ee-engine.xml file as you can see

I already founded a post in this forum (url Re: JRA version conflict) that says
Remember The JRA implements the JCA 1.0 specification but The JRA is NOT an implementation of the JCA 1.0 specification as it is not portable / plugable into any J2EE 1.xx compliant environment! Thanks SAP.
Does it mean that we can't deploy the sapjra on a JBoss server ?
Can you tell me what I can do to solve this problem. Thanks in advance.
Jean-Michel

Hi Jean,
the JRA is supported only within SAP Web AS. So, we cannot provide support for using it within JBoss.
The error
Could not initialize SAP Java Resource Adapter Library. Found SAP Java Connector version 2.1.7 but version 6.30.1 or higher is required.
 at com.sap.mw.jco.jra.JRA.<clinit>(JRA.java:218)
means, that you use in JBoss the standalone JCO. But JRA needs the JCO provided withing SAP Web AS.

Portal Drive Error--re-install SAP NW Portal Drive software and try again

Dear Experts,
Could you please let me know if there is any permanent fix for
Portal Drive inconsistence behaviour.
1.We use NW2004s SPS 13.
2.After the installation of Portal Drive (version 4.5.6796 ) on an
desktop, windows is not stable and must be restart (cold start).
3. After the restart the problems still exists and only a
deinstallation resolves the problem.
4. Sometimes the problem occurs on connecting to a service,
sometimes on disconnecting.
Sometimes on starting windows, but before the load of Protal
Drive.
5."Presently we are getting error SAP NetWeaver Portal Drive is not installed or configured correctly.Please re-install SAP
NetWeaver Portal Drive software and try again"
6. If we uninstall it and reinstall, it is working fine.
I wanted to know if there is any permanent fix for this inconsistance in Portal drive.
Because i have received complaints from more than 9 users in this week.
Really thanks for helping me

Hey just a update, so even though apple said the HDD was fine because of the S.M.A.R.T status and it was been picked it would be fine I did not agree, took my iMac apart went out to the local computer shop picked up a cheap 1tb WD HDD and now the iMac is worked fine and smooth :-)
So now I know that was the issue I can order a nice new SSD for the iMac and use the new HDD I got in an external case :-) just incase anyone had the same issue that's the fix. Buy a new HDD or SSD

SAP client and other software on a Virtual Machine

I'm the campus coordinator for a university that is a member of the University Alliances program. This gives us the ability to put the R/3 client and other software on lab machines and also distribute it to students.
Given that we deploy in a shared lab environment on a university campus we often don't have absolute control over things like browser versions, plugins available, security settings, Java version available, and so on. We also only have the ability to do updates, installations, etc. at fixed times of the year.
As a solution for this, we're contemplating creating a virtual machine to be able to control the environment more and also allow the student greater control and customization. At this point we'd be looking at developing a Windows VM, either Vista or XP, that would have the R/3 client, IE with all the correct plugins for running Visual Composer, NetWeaver Developer Studio, and other programs such as Solution Composer. The idea would be that if we need to add a new software resource, change a version, tweak the environment, etc. we could just update and redistribute this virtual machine.
Has anyone here attempted this type of deployment? As we are just beginning, any helpful hints or advice would be appreciated.

I appreciate your willingness to think through this with me and share your expertise.

My assumption was that if we had multiple windows instances out there all with the same key (assuming non-volume key) that the piracy protection built into the OS might in some way cause problems.

I'm not sure how challenging that in fact might be. A quick Google search turned up lots of sites that at least claim to have Windows volume keys and necessary install media. I know that college students can be very adept at things in that domain.
> The biggest problem you might face is the UUID of the client instances - they will be identical. If you plan to use Active Directory functionality (for e. g. Single Sign On) then you need to make sure each VM is different (speaking of running sysprep) and that you have a different user on each VM - which will be not easy to mantain.
If I'm understanding your thought correctly, the UUID issue is why I thought attempting 1 shared OS license key for all VMs would be problematic. My assumption is that having a unique OS key on each VM would solve this problem.
As far Active Directory goes, that likely won't be an issue. Our students have storage on the campus network, but we have no plans for the VM to access that. All our SAP resources are hosted remotely at a UCC. I envision the students being able to 'boot' their VM, connect to the UCC using the client software, do their SAP work, and be done. The only storage they'd have in the VM would be a drive in the VM. While this might not work in many deployments, given our use of this just for lab instruction, I think it would work well.
> Another point to consider is: How to update? If you update your main image (e. g. necessary SAPGUI patches) - how will you distribute that to the USB-VMs - or how will you make sure the students use the latest copy?
This is where our situation and a corporate situation likely differs. Since we are hosted by a UCC that caters just to the academic environment things tend to be build and frozen during the summer and then not changed until the next year. Our classes run each semester independently. Although we may have to roll out a different VM from one semester to the next, a mid-semester change shouldn't be needed. However, having said that, if we do need to install a patch, that should be much easier. In a lab shared environment updating a software version requires a lot of coordination. In this VM situation, each students has full administrator privilege over their VM. If they need to install a patch, they can do so. If they mess this up, they haven't disrupted anyone else. In that instance they could just download the base VM again as a 'reset.'
> In such an environment I'd more think about setting up a terminal server (using Windows 2003) and install all necessary software there. With that you only need to update at one place, you can granularily give permissions to the users and supporting users in case of a proble is easier (mirroring the session) than having single instances with all the same hostname of the client. And all students only need an RDP client which comes with the Windows XP or Vista by default.
That is something we haven't considered with this project, and I'll have to check with our system manager. Resources might be an issue here. We have an abundance of PCs, so each of them running their own VM isn't an issue. I'm not sure if we have a server capable of supporting 30-40 simultaneous remote connections that is not otherwise in use.
Thanks for your ideas here Markus. Any other thoughts, ideas, etc. are most welcome. I'll also update this thread as I start experimenting with this over the next couple of weeks.

What technical components are needed for integration of SAP BI and BO?

Hello,
What technical components are needed for integration of SAP BI and BO?

Hi,
you need to setup a BOBJ server (eg. BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 or BO Edge 3.1) and then install the BusinessObjects integration Kit for SAP on the same machine your BOBJ server runs.
In order to build reports you can either use Crystal Reports (eg Install Crystal Report Designer 2008 V1 if you have an XI 3.1 server installed), WebIntelligence (Install the Business Objects XI 3.1 Client Tools in order to be able to build universes), BusinessObjects Voyager or XCelsius. Please note that you have to always install the BOBJ integration Kit for SAP (should be the same version as your server and client installation) on your clients AFTER you installed one or more of the above client tools.
Please take again a look at the following link for more detailed information (from Ingo) on this:

SAP JRA in Adapter module

We are developing an Adapter module for "File Sender Adapter" and in that we have a requirement to call an RFC. We are trying to use SAP JRA (Java Resource Adapter) for doing this as we do not want to hard code the password in the module by using direct JCO connections.
Using JRA we are able to invoke RFC in our adapter module but the message payload does not go to the next module (Standard module) in the chain. We identified that as soon as we get the connection handle using statement:
Connection connection = connectionfactory.getConnection();
message is not going to next module in the chain. We are also not getting any error or exception anywhere. It is just that the message is not getting processed. Any help or idea would be appreciated.
Regards

Hi Amol
I was not able to this today as I do not having authorization in our development system for exposing RFC as webservice and waiting for the authorization.
I want to know if I expose the RFC as webservice in development server, will it be transported via normal ABAP transport procedure in the landscape (will this require any change in config etc.) or I need to expose it separately in different server.

Is SSO possible for SAP ERP and xMII

Hi,
Is it possible to have Single Sign-On between SAP ERP and xMII.
The requirement is that the user wants to login to the SAP ERP and using the same credentials he/she should be able to use xMII (without prompting for login credentials again.)
If it is not possible why is it so, and if it is then how?
Thanks in advance.

Data transfer between SAP & Java and Vice versa using IDOC Process

Dear Experts,
        We are working on one of the good requirement related to data transfer between SAP and Java software. Client requirement is, they want to transfer the data in both the ways (from SAP --> Java and Vice versa also).
In detail is, after sales order creation using one custom program loading plan details will be calculated. Once loading dates are confirmed then, user will release the sales document to transfer the data from SAP to Java using "Outbound IDOC processing". Similarly in that JAVA software some shipment details will be performed, once completed from JAVA software again details needs to be pumped back to SAP as "Inbound IDOC Processing".
For this fields are already identified from external software SAP and we are looking for the same to perform the steps in SAP.
At this stage, I need your expert opinion / feedback how to go about at this stage.
Meaning,
                 1. What are the customizing steps needs to be done in SAP..?
                 2. How to trigger the :Outbound IDOC process" once the documents are "Released" from custom transaction
                 3. How to create the link between SAP and JAVA to transfer the data between these 2 software
                 4. How to trigger the "Inbound IDOC Process" from JAVA software to SAP and how to store the data in SAP
Experts, please give your feedback in terms of reply or by sending the step by step process to fulfill this client requirement.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Regards,
Ramesh

Maybe too many open questions in the same document.
Maybe you should repost a more specific question in a technical forum.
This looks like a small project where you already know what you want, maybe you should contract a technical specialist so he proceeds to the implementation!

We would like an request with error is not imported over and over again.

We have an periodically sheduled job which imports all released requests(queue). We would like that request with error is not imported over and over again.
How to achieve that?

Hi,
Please do run the import job for transport in STMS only as described in SAP Note below:
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/398589
The periodic sadly can only be done for "import all" & not "import single".
However, you can try the following unconditional modes:

Clarrification about JSF and JBoss Seam

Hi ,
i have just started a couple of hours ago reading about JSF and JBoss Seam and it seems interesting ......
here is my question :
i have a form ( registration form ) written in jsp and a congratulation page (jsp page too)
is right what i am saying ?
JSF form ( input values) are sent to Seam to be validated under hibernate rules and then it( Seam ) responses to the JSF the entity bean .
again JSF form asks Seam to resolve the variable Register ( the value of the submit button in the form) and Seam returns the RegisterACtion
After that the same jsp page invoke the register method of the RegisterAction stateless session beam .inside the register method it redirect the user to congratulation jsp page .
do you think its correct
sorry folks for my english

Submit a SAP job and it is erroring out as "instance/client not found"

I am trying to submit a SAP job and it is erroring out as "instance/client not found"
as soon as I enter the instance/client value and click on next I am getting this error
please help

Hi,
Then maybe there is a problem with another parameter, and the error is obscured by this error message.
You did specify valid values for all other parameters ?
Maybe you can try the following:
- create a simple job in SAP, you do not have to execute it only save it
- import this job using RSI_IMPORT_CCMS_JOBS and specify the exact job name
- run the imported job (it will have the same name as in SAP) and see if this works
- if this works, try your job again directly from CPS and compare your parameters with those on the imported job (especially which ones are filled or not filled, that sometimes is more important than the exact value chosen)
Regards,
Anton.
