Saplogon.ini in configurations files section of saplogonpad.

Hello,
We have SAP GUI 7.10 patch 19 installed. Our saplogon.ini file resides in the path c:\windows and is not explicitly set anywhere. An old PLM interface to Solidworks set the Windows USER environment variable to point to C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui by setting a value in SAPLOGON_INI_FILE, so nothing appears in the logonpad.
If I remove this USER environment variable, the logonpad entries still appear blank. On further investigation, we see in the logonpad configuration screen (in the logonpad itself) a reference to a variable called saplogon.ini being set here in a section called configuration files.
We have searched for this in the registry but cannot find it and therefore can't change it.
Does anyone know how this gets set, where it is stored and how we can change it. Ideally we'd like to remove it completely, if possible.
Thanks,
Philip.

Hello,
I have solved this. The process also created a saplogoin.ini file in C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui which was blank. SAP GUI looks there before Windows.
Thanks,
Philip.

Size of local configuration file uploads?

Where is the size cap of files in the upload of the "local"->"configuration files" section set? Trying to upload a rather large file and getting the "file too big to upload" message.

Hi!
As far as I know, you should upload the file directly from the Console Server. If you upload Files from any other "managed host" you will run in this limitation.

SAPLOGON.ini

HI,
I am creating single file installer for SAP GUI 7.1 patch 9...I have attached Script event on end install so that can distribute custom ini and service file..The standard code attached below does not work for me...I would like to distribute the installer exe file with custom saplogon ini and service file.....I am following all setps required but still does not work..not sure what is wrong here...I also have CustomerFiles folder created on the root folder of Installation server next to Setup folder and placed ini file in that folder...
NwEngine.Context.Log.Write "Event: Copying customized SapLogon.ini"
strSrcFile = NwEngine.Variables.ResolveString("%SAPSrcDir%\CustomerFiles\SapLogon.ini")
strDstFile = NwEngine.Variables.ResolveString("%WinDir%\SapLogon.ini")
If NwEngine.Shell.FileExist( strSrcFile ) Then
NwEngine.Shell.CopyFile strSrcFile, strDstFile

Hi,
You have to create the CustomerFiles folder in the directory where you have installed your sap gui server 7.1, which is shared for end user for installation.
So check it weather you have created it on proper place.
E.g. If I have install SAP GUI Server 7.1 on D:\SAPGUI_SERVER directory then I have to created the CustomerFiles folder in D:\SAPGUI_SERVER directory.

Can I change the content of a section in config data file use Configuration File VIs of LV?

There are few sections in my .ini file, I need to change the content of a section in this .ini file. Are Configuration File VIs in File I/O fuction pallete able to do that?
Thanks.

You should be able to. Open the .ini file, read the key (if it exitst) delete it and write a new key (you might be able to directly overwrite the key but I havent tried this). Close the file with the write file? set to true and you should have modified the .ini file with the config vis.

Saplogon.ini services files NOT copying over durring PACKAGE INSTALL

I have an server sdmin install that ive put together and created a package. its fully patched server. In the scripts area ive placed the script that was in the chm file to copy over a private logon.ini and services file in the "ON END INSTALL" section of the package..
The issue is that it does not copy over the files that are listed in the customerfiles folder that I have.
the user on the machines have admin rights to the machine so I dont think its a rights issue. any idea out there for me ?
this is SAG gui 7.10 patch 2.

Hi
This is the script I use when deploying a package.
ON END INSTALL
NwEngine.Context.Log.Write "Event: Copying customized saplogon.ini"
If NwEngine.Shell.FileExist("%SAPSrcDir%\ConfigurationFiles\saplogon.ini") Then
NwEngine.Shell.CopyFile "%SAPSrcDir%\ConfigurationFiles\saplogon.ini", "%WinDir%\saplogon.ini"
End If
Basically I have installed my SAP installation server to a share SAPINST$ the \ConfigurationFiles\ folder is within the SAPSrcDir (SAPINST$\ConfigurationFiles\).
Hope this helps?

[appdefaults] section of Kerberos configuration file

Hi,
I'm developing a kerberized application which is supposed to be deployed through WebStart, and, therefore, cannot have application-specific krb5.conf file (as far as I understand it). Next, the application has to use des-cbc-md5 encryption. So, if no Kerberos configuration file is provided, this encryption type is used by default. But what if client box has machine-specific Kerberos configuration file (f.x. C:\Windows\krb5.ini) and encryption types list there is configured to prevent using des-cbc-md5?
Looking through krb5.conf man page I have noticed [appdefaults] section, which is said to contain "default values that can be used by Kerberos V5 applications". Having googled, I found several examples where this section is used to configure telnet, kinit, pam and so on. But the question is: can I use it to set my application-specific Kerberos settings? What should I do to make Java use some value from [appdefaults] section instead of[libdefaults] one based on the name of my application?
Thanks in advance.

Saplogon.ini file location question

Hi, any advice would be appreciated thanks
we have rolled the sap gui 6.40 to all our clients - all using a local copy of the saplogon.ini file in the local windows directory. however we wish to change this approach and have a central saplogon.ini file on a file server and point all the clients to this file.. any changes only then have to be made in one place.
can anyone help me with this, firstly is it possible, and if so how to change the client setting to adjust the location.
many thanks.

Hi thanks for your link.
The document you pointed me towards led me to SAP note number 756686
which explains that you can edit the SAP icon on your desktop (by right-clicking and opening with notepad) and then adding a line cmd="/ini_file='path to ini file'\saplogon.ini'
Thanks for your assistance.

SAPLOGON.SAL- different saplogon.ini files

Dear all,
I'm looking for a possibility to use different ini files, dependent from the access via network (lan) or VPN.
The local saplogon.ini file should only be used if the saplogon.ini file from the network directory is not available. Maybe with SAPLOGON.SAL?
thanks in advance!

if (netWorkIsAvailable())
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("SAPLOGON_INI_FILE", "c:
windows
SAPLOGON.SAL");
else
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("SAPLOGON_INI_FILE", null);
SAPLogonDestination dest = new SAPLogonDestination();

C:windows\saplogon.ini file error

Hi Experts,
I have SAPGUI 7.10 systems and whenever I add new SAP Server in SAP Logon Pad, a corresponding entry is created in C:\WINDOWS\SAPLOGON.INI file.
But in some system, part of file content is as below:
Server
Item1=
Item2=XXXXX
Item3=YYYYY
Item4=AAAAA
Item5=BBBBB
where in xxx, yyyy,aaa,bbb are the application server IP.
But here Item1= <space> as shown.
For other user systems, item1 corresponds for first entry of logon pad as expected.
Server
Item1=XXXXX
Item2=YYYY
Item3=AAAA
Item4=BBBBB
And I am getting an error if I try at system with item1=<space>.
Can you tell why this space is inserted on some system and not on others?
Thanks
Depesh.

Hi,
I am using sapgui 7.10 with patch level 14.
There is a space shown in all the systems and this creating a problem while executing an SAP shortcut by saying no system description found as it tries to search for a description from saplogon.ini. even if it exists but with a space for item1.
nobody has manually changed the saplogon.ini file.
if i manually remove the space then add server list again or i copy the file with no space from somebody system then it works without error.
But i cannot copy and replace this file if i have 1000+ user working on a solution having their saplogon.ini file with item1=space.
Kindly suggest some automated process to ensure the space removal.
thanks
depesh.

Use configuration file VIs to set AppFont in INI

I am using the following code in an attempt to set AppFont, SystemFont, and DialogFont in an executable's .ini file all to Segoe UI 15. I was disappointed to discover that the configuration file VIs don't seem to write the key correctly. When I use this code, I get the following in the .ini file:
AppFont = ""Segoe UI" 15"
SystemFont = ""Segoe UI" 15"
DialogFont = ""Segoe UI" 15"
What I really need is:
AppFont = "Segoe UI" 15
SystemFont = ""Segoe UI" 15
DialogFont = "Segoe UI" 15
In other words, the configuration file VIs add an extra set of quotation marks. With this extra set of quotation marks, the executable ignored these settings. The "write raw string?" input didn't seem to affect this behavior.
Does anyone know of a way to get the configuration file VIs to write this key/value pair correctly, or do I need to write extra code to either remove the quotations or do the whole thing myself? It seems like the configuration file parsing/editing VIs that NI provides should be able to parse and edit NI-provided configuration files...

There is no way to do this with the current config file API. That "write raw string" input only pertains to escaping certain characters. We also have an internal API for writing data specifically to the LabVIEW.ini file, but it has the same problem with extra quotes. For now, you'll need to either refrain from using the config file VIs, or add some post-processing code to go in and remove the extra quotes.

I want to know the where the logon details are saved. if any one knows abt this please replay.

Hi,
did you search for SAPLOGON.INI?
Do you have a local or a server-installation of SAPGUI?
Regards, Dieter
Another way i to look in LOGON-Pad in OPTIONS. There you can see what saplogon.ini is used.
