Start external program on explizit host

Hello!
I have a little problem - I just want to create a RFC destination which execute an external program
on a different windows server means not the sap application server. All SAP + server are Windows based.
I define a destination "Start on explicit host".
Program:
sap64\rfctest\aec\ALICE_MATHE_RFC.exe
Target Host: sap64.alice.tld
Gateway options (Host: sap64, Port: 3301)
On this server (sap64) only a gateway is running.
But it don't work.
Error:
Logon     Connection Error
Error Details     Error when opening an RFC connection
Error Details     ERROR: timeout during allocate
Error Details     LOCATION: SAP-Gateway on host sap64 / sapgw01
Error Details     DETAIL: no connect of TP
sap64\rfctest\aec\ALICE_MATHE_RFC.exe from host sap
Error Details     COMPONENT: SAP-Gateway
Error Details     COUNTER: 42
Error Details     MODULE: gwr3cpic.c

Error Details     RELEASE: 700
Error Details     TIME: Fri Nov 21 11:26:08 2008
Error Details     VERSION: 2
If i define the destination as Start on application server there is no
problem - the exe on sap64 is executed on the application server of the sap system but this should not be....
Can anybody help me to find a solution to execute the exe on a different server
than the sap application server?
Best regards
Thomas Wassenhoven

Hi!
Yes it is possible. I solved this problem by registering the programm on the gateway (Note 63930).

Starting external program

Hi,
i started with java 2 days ago and i my english is awful. Sorry.
I have this problem:
There is a simple exsample in the java help for the swing.jFileChooser.
The choosed fle ist shown in the window as text.
But i want to start an external program.
This is the source that runs (ParaPath is defined as String):
int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(XMLChooser.this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File dir = fc.getCurrentDirectory();
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
ParaPath = dir.getAbsolutePath() + "\\" + file.getName();
try{
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad");
log.append(ParaPath);
catch (Exception f) {
System.err.println(e.toString());
What do i have do do to send the ParaPath to notepad?
Thanks
Thomas

Thank You! That's it!
I don't know why, i always tried
("notepad", ParaPath)
and was nearly angry, that it didn't run.

Start external program

We have different programs in out business, is it possible to start these programs from the workflow pages?
Joris de Groen

Yeah I figured. Like I said, I had only done it in MSSQL. Seeing as Windows and MSSQL are made by the same company, it would be only natural one could call into the other easily. :)
But I agree, we do our external work with Java Listeners. We actually have, using our own homegrown queue listeners, multiple instances of multiple listeners (all multithreaded) on different servers polling central DB queues. They do things such as email, ftp, write to network drives, etc things that were easier to do in java then anything else. Its quite distributed and scalable. And the workflows are what initiate them.

Have you set up a wildcard DNS entry for the spapps.com domain?
Also if you're trying to connect from the server you might be hitting loop back check issues.

PPI setting in LR3 external editing option

what is the use and significance of the ppi setting (default 240) in the external editing section in LR3? what is the recommended value / how can it be derived?
Thanks,

Actually, I would disagree...
A raw file will have "native" pixel dimension (x number of pixels by x number of pixels) but not have a pixel resolution and dimension until you specify it. Since you are opening an image from Lightroom, where really only the pixel density matters, into Photoshop where resolution and dimension do matter, I would suggest setting a resolution that gives you the most useful PPI resolution for your needs. 240 PPI will give you a larger set of dimensions while being under the suggested resolution needed for halftone reproduction (which is 300 PPI). Printing to a pro quality inkjet printer is often done at 360 PPI (or above). A higher PPI will result in the image dimensions being smaller...
So, you need to decide what purposes you open images into Photoshop and settle on a resolution settings that is useful for your purpose.

How to close external programs?

Hi there,
in vbs is a command "ExtProgram(ExtProgramName, ExtProgramArg)" to
start external programs. But how to close external programs when
they finished its work? Is there a vbs-command for it? Is there a way
when calling "cmd.exe" with a proper parameter?
Martin Bohm

Hello Martin!
Yes, with the tool 'tasklist' in the same directory.
The problem is that it is not easy to query from script. I tried it in the following script. Perhaps not perfect espacially because a command interpreter pop up every time you call the function.Option Explicit
If IsDIAdemRunning() Then
Call MsgBox( "At least one DIAdem is running!" )
Else
Call MsgBox( "No DIAdem at all!" )
End If
Function IsDIAdemRunning()
Dim oWshShell
Dim oExec
' Execute via Shell Object
Set oWshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = oWshShell.Exec( "C:\windows\system32\tasklist.exe /FI ""IMAGENAME eq DIAdem.exe""")
' wait until tasklist is finished
Do While oExec.Status = 0
Pause(1)
Loop
' no Standard Output -> no DIAdem running
IsDIAdemRunning = Len(oExec.StdOut.ReadAll) <> 0
End Function
A better solution might be possible via WMI.

We couldnu2019t located any clear error indication that might help us in troubleshooting.
We already configured settings in .rhosts file & we had resolve the permission problem
We executed the following commands as user <sid>adm:
In DB host, we executed rsh <CI host> date & it works.
But in DB hosts, its doesn't work when we executed rsh <DB host> date
Is this issue should be isolated as AIX OS issue?
We couldn't execute any activities from DB13 as the DB rfc destination is not working.
Is that alternative way that we can execute sapxpg on DB host?
Or we have to install standalone gateway as solution? It's that any impact if we installing standalone gateway at DB host now (It's production system)?
Thanks.
BR,
Terry

Hi Guru,
When we tried to execute the following command from host DB:
rsh <Host CI> date
it was return results.
However, if we tried to execute from host CI:
rsh <Host DB> data
it was return no results.
That's means we could'nt remotely start any of external command at DB host from CI host.
Start external program error was isolated within operating system level.
Any luck on this?
Thanks.

Start external application with oracle job

I'm trying to start external program with oracle job.
Here is an example (I used SYS as SYSDBA):
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
job_name => 'my_job',
job_type => 'executable',
job_action => 'C:/WINDOWS/system32/cmd.exe',
enabled => true,
auto_drop => false );
END;
But job STATE comes FAILED.
How should I do this?
Result was not better when I used
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_PROGRAM (
program_name => 'my_prg',
program_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
program_action => 'C:/WINDOWS/system32/cmd.exe',
enabled=>TRUE);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
job_name => 'my_job',
program_name => 'my_prg',
enabled => TRUE,
auto_drop => false );
END;

Executing external programs in Windows from UNIX

Hi all,
I would like to call an external program in Windows box from UNIX box. I tried to create a command in SM69, specify the command and OS type to Windows. When I try to execute the command in SM49, I got an error 'program_start_error'.
I tried also to create an RFC destination in SM59, using connection type = T (start external program via TCP/IP), specifying the program in the Program field and specify the Windows box hostname (or IP add) in the Target host. But this also seemed could not work.
Is there any other ways I could do this?
Thank you.

How to call a external program in java?

Help!!
Is there any method that can a java program can call a external program? For example execute a exe file.
Thanks.

Yes.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("exactly what you would type at the command line");
But be aware that this is operating-system-specific and full of gotchas. When you run into one of them, come back to the forum and do a search, this is a frequent topic of discussion.

I have multiple libraries on an external drive. Somehow all the iTunes library files i.e. iTunes Library.itl, xml, itdb, Media folder, etc disappeared! Only the music files remain. Now when I start iTunes w/option it can't find any of the old libraries!

Help! I 'm using an old G4 powerbook, Mac OSX 10.5.8, iTunes ver 10. I have multiple iTunes libraries on an external drive. Everything was fine for a while, then all of the iTunes library files, i.e. iTunes Library.itl, xml, itdb, artwork folder, Media folder, etc mysteriously disappeared! Only the music files remain (thank god) So now when I start iTunes w/option key to choose a library, I can't choose any of them because iTunes won't recognize them. Because all the library stuff is missing. So can I re-create the library files? (I don't care if I lose my ratings)
Or should I create a new empty library on the external drive, then manually move all the music files to the Media folder in the new library?
I tried some stupid ideas like creating a new library just to start iTunes, then going into prefs and advanced, then under iTunes Media folder location, selecting the location of the old library on the external, to see if iTunes would then find all the music which is still there, but no workee.
I'm out of ideas, and I searched the archives.
Help! anyone?
Scott

I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
it is.
is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
i wouldn't - at least not until i
mount the external
point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

Hi,
Yes. You can start a process through a web services that can be triggered from a method in a class or FM etc.
You can refer this link that has a step by step process for the same.
