SAP SID Rename using SWPM

Hi All,
I am trying to perform SAP <SID> rename using SWPM 1.0 SP6 and getting the following error.
<html> <head> </head> <body> An error occurred while processing option System Rename > Central System > SAP System Rename( Last error reported by the step: The JVM reports an exception during execution of class ( com.sap.sdt.ins.component.ora_clone_db_post_dia.DiSchemaUsersAndListener_validator ) and function executeStepClass.

Could you please do the needful.

Hi Srivastava,
Thanks for the quick responce !!
Yes, it is mentioned in the System Rename Gude(Page# 22).
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000664952012E
Unfortunately it is not writing the error logs at OS level other than attached
in my previous message.
Thanks and Regards,

Portal can not work with abnormal increased /usr/sap/SID file space

hi experts,
I got a problem today on our HR portal.
At first I can't login the nwa, then I checked tha OS of portal, I saw that the file system /usr/sap/SID's used spaces increase very quickly, though I increase the free spaces for emergency use, the portal still can not work and the free space is still missing. I just solved by restart the SAP service.
Did anyone face the same problems before?
System information
OS --> AIX v5.3
Database --> Oracle 10.2.0.2
SAP --> netweaver 2004s SP12.

Hi,
This happens when your archive log file of the application increases,
Check the folder usr/sap/sid/instance/j2ee/cluster/server0/log/archive folder this is the reason for your disk space increase. Just take a backup and delete the files in the archive folder (except temp folder).
The deletion of older archive files is not handeled by SAP, you have to manually delete the archive logs.

MaxDB configuration file - SAP System Rename

Hello,
I am new and tried to make a System Rename with SWPM.
We have maxDB.
After a few steps the setup wants you to choose a maxDB configuration file which was used for installation of the source system.
Does anyone new where I can find this configuration file?
I tried a few cfg files but nothing was correct.
These files here are not correct, I tried.
Configuration Files - SAP Documentation
Thank you so far and well greets.
Stefan

Hi Deepak,
Thanks for your suggestion but there are no existing enteries for MaxDB in the windows registry.
We are facing an issue while renaming the database. Kindly refer to SAP Note : 1427931

PDF files are stored to /usr/sap/ SID SYS/global

True or False --> When a PDF file is generated from within SAP the spool file is stored in /usr/sap/<SID>SYS/global
After a recent upgrade to ECC 6 I'm noticing that a large number of SPOOL* files are in the global directory. Each spool file has 3 components a SPOOL.cfg, SPOOL.xfd and a SPOOL*.ps file .When I examine the spool number using SP01 I see that these jobs all have an output type of PDF. Only files of type PDF appear in the global directory. It does not matter which output device is used. No output device in my system is defined to write to the global directory. Everything is set up to store files to the database.
My assumption is that the generation of a PDF format requires a temporary storage area to convert the data from the "Device Type" setting for the printer (such as Postscript or HPGL) to the PDF format and that the /usr/sap/<SID>SYS/global directory is used for this purpose.
Is there a parameter setting that allows me to modifiy this "conversion" location?

Assumptions:
---> You are running on Unix - I don't have instructions for Windows, but they would be analogous
---> Your System ID is TX1
---> 2Gb is big enough to hold your Adobe files
1.) Create a 2Gb file system named /AdobeFiles
2.) Create the required directories under this new file system
- For example: /AdobeFiles/300ADSP
3.) Verify that the user <sid>adm can write to the directory created in step 2
4.) Apply SAP note 1327372
5.) Rename the filesystems that SAP note 1327372 creates
- For example: mv /usr/sap/TX1/SYS/global/300ADSP /usr/sap/TX1/SYS/global/300ADSP-ORG
6.) Create a symbolic link for the required directory to the directory created in step 2
- For example: ln -s /AdobeFiles/300ADSP /usr/sap/TX1/SYS/global/300ADSP
7.) Test your link
cd /usr/sap/TX1/SYS/global/300ADSP
touch TestFile
cd /AdobeFiles/300ADSP/TestFile
Your file should have been created in /AdobeFiles/300ADSP

Export & import of sap sid schema for building a new system

Hi,
We have a quality BW system which runs on HANA SPS07 (Revision 73). The database contains many schemas in addition to sap<sid>, the rest of the schemas are used through native HANA and are very huge.
We are planning to build a new test BW system by system copy method from quality BW systems. We dont want the export/import of entire database as it will take a long time because of huge native HANA schemas, also the schemas other than sap<sid> are not required in the target. Please let me know how to copy only the sap<sid> schema to the new database.
Thanks & Regards,
Saravanan

Hi Saravanan,
Try with rigth clic on schema -> Export,
Select CSV format, choose a directory.
And for import the schema use the follow query:
import "old_schema"."*" as CSV from 'Directory' with replace threads 10 rename schema "old_schema" to "NEW_schema_name";
Regards.

"SSO" for non-sap web application using SAPGUI to browse?

I have a web application (non SAP) and the user base are also SAP users in an ABAP system.
To strengthen the authentication in the web app, I wanted to implement SSO
authentication as we pity the users for having to remember so many strong pw's and I
dont like LDAP based pw sync or other technology I dont understand, because then we are
just yet another application with the same pw...
We are having technical problems implementing SSO on the web app side, and are anyway a
bit sceptical about the user admin / role admin assignment if we get it to work.
So I have created a transaction in SAP which browses the web app and the intention is to
send the SAP sy-uname as the web app user. We can control this using s_tcode, and
an own auth object on the WAS side and a check on the session type before the connection is
established. In this sense we are dependent on the SAP concept implemented, but even so:
The role assignment is controlled in the web app itself -> so assume that I am not overly
worried about unauthorized access to the web application, as they would not have any
system role for it as their sy-uname does not exist. (Infact we can monitor this)
The browser on the front end is the SAPGUI with html controls on the SAP side.
I would be interested in knowing whether anyone else has experience with this approach, and
whether there are any areas to be carefull of?
I would also like to know whether this is a strategic error?
Kind regards,
Julius

Hi Julius,
well, if that web application would run on the same ABAP backend system then the solution described in <a href="http://service.sap.com/~iron/fm/011000358700000431401997E/0612670">SAP Note 612670</a> would be applicable:
a so-called "Re-entrance ticket" (based on the "SAP logon ticket" SSO proceedings) is issued, transported via the SAPGUI connection and back to the system via the invoked HTML control.
But for non-SAP web applications that does not help.
In that case only X.509 client certificates can be used for SSO. Actually, the web application could then also be invoked directly (independent from the SAPGUI session). The user is authenticated based on the X.509 client certificate - and not based on the ABAP userID (of the SAPGUI session).
Well, if you don't mind the effort you could also use the "SAP Logon Ticket evaluation library" (sapssoext, see <a href="http://service.sap.com/~iron/fm/011000358700000431401997E/0304450">SAP Note 304450</a>) to evalute the SAP logon ticket externally. You'll then need to have a "stub application" at the ABAP side that triggers the http redirect to your external web application. Not a nice solution but a possible one.
In the future SAML browser artifacts would be an option (preferable to integrate non-SAP applications). But currently that's not available (for NWAS ABAP).
Cheers, Wolfgang

Problem in Server side includes using Tomcat

Problem in Server side includes using Tomcat:
I am trying out small programs in servlet.
I get one example program for server side includes from net.
The code is:
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Times!</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>

The current time in London is!!! :
<SERVLET CODE="CurrentTime" codebase="../servlet">
<PARAM NAME="zone" VALUE="GMT">
</SERVLET>

</BODY>
</HTML>
I placed this test.shtml file in tomcat-home/webapps/ROOT folder and i kept the servlet in WEB-INF/classes folder.
I renamed the servlets-ssi.jar and i removed the comments for SSI in web.xml file.
When i run the servlet separately, i am getting the correct result. But if i run shtml file with the URL : http://localhost:8080/Test.shtml,
i am getting the result as:
The current time in London is!!! :
It is not invoking servlet program.
CAN ANYONE HELP ON THIS!
Thanks.

Thanks...as u said I tried putting dir & found that
my file was saved as Ch1Servlet.java.txt instead for
Ch1Servlet.java......So that was a problem.Now I'm
able to compile.Oh, yeah. Notepad will do that to you. I think when you save in Notepad if you put quotes around the name "Whatever.java" then it won't add the .txt.
But on compiling I'm getting the following error
package java.servlet.* does not exist
package java.servlet.http.* does not exist
package java.io.* does not exist
Do u the reason for this??? The servlet stuff is java[b]x.servlet. For the io stuff, I don't know, I'd have to see your code. Either you have a typo or a corrupt installation.

Help Required Regarding - SAP Job names using R3 data flows

We are calling a set of SAP Jobs using R3 data flows in data services. When ever a job fails we first kill the active SAP jobs by logging into SAP and then restarting the Jobs.
There are about 100 odd SAP jobs that we call using these Data services Jobs so we wanted to kill the jobs using a reusable code on the SAP side by passing the Job name just before every R3 flows just incase its still in active status.
So wanted to know if there are any short cuts to retrive the set of associated SAP job names because it will be a tedious process to hardcode the SAP job names and pass them as parameters for all the 100 + SAP job names in the custom defined resuable code.
Any help or advice on this please !!

The program is not meeting the expectations
and the problem is due to reflection.Do we know this for certain?
... my application gets the class name, field name
etc. from an XML file so i don't know their method names
beforehand .
Now since every class instance corresponds to a row
in the database and i have to call get and set
methods of each class instance so the performance
keeps on degrading as the number of columns and rows increase .
Can somebody suggest some improvement regarding this
and regarding creating multiple instances of the same object Class.forName() will be using a hash already, so there is probably not much room for improvement.
Class.newInstance() probably does not take significantly more processing than a simple "new Fubar();".
Umpteen reflective method invokations (one per column) for each row/instance - Are you saying these are the problem?
You can test this easy enough.
If you comment out the reflective method invocations and leave the rest of your code untouched,
does your application processing speed up significantly?

Error during the export of HANA using SWPM

RFC function is called with null paremeters on SAP side

I used the new version of .Net Connector 2.0.1.
I created a simple client called RFC function with one table parameter and simple RFC function inserts record to simple table on SAP side.
If I call this RFC function from SAP side the record is inserted to my table with correct value.
If I call this RFC function from NET side the record is inserted with null value.
What's wrong ?
Could anybody help me ?
Code :
SAP side
FUNCTION ZRVFRFCNV.
*" TABLES
*" ITDATA STRUCTURE ZRVNAMEVALUE
insert into ZRVNAMEVALUE values ITDATA.
ENDFUNCTION.
Net side
ZRVNAMEVALUE nam_val2 = new ZRVNAMEVALUE();
nam_val2.Name = "100";
nam_val2.Value = "NORD";
ZRVNAMEVALUETable tblTest = new ZRVNAMEVALUETable();
tblTest.Add(nam_val2);
// for testing : dataGrid show correct values
dataGrid1.SetDataBinding(tblTest, "");
this.sapProxy11.Zrvfrfcnv(ref tblTest);

The problem was in insert statement. I changed insert to modify on SAP side and solved it.

Check Connection of Communication Arrangement for SAP ERP Financials Using IDoc Failed

Dear experts,
We are checking outbound connection from C4TE to ERP in Communication Arrangement for SAP ERP Financials Using IDoc Failed.
We get the attached error message:
Checking connection failed
Error accessing service; Service Ping ERROR: Forbidden (403)
What could be the reasons, in ERP side, through Tcode SMICM, we didn't see any log from C4TE side, and we cannot ping the ERP side successfully.
One more thing, in C4TE, we tried to set the connection to an SAP internal ERP system, and the connection was successful. But when relinked to the customer ERP system, connection failed.
Could it be firewalls reason?
Thanks!
Best regards,
Wendy

Hi Wendy,
Yes the assumption could be one reason as well for the error (403 forbidden), but there could be several other aspects also to get the 403 error, for better understanding the reason for the error, may I request you to create an incident send it to us.
Also please try once running the scenario in C4T and check if the relevant documents are being sent through Outbound Service or not.
Thanks & Regards,
