SHarepoint as SAP Content Server Configuration

Actually this message is for Espen Leknes because I have read something from him i another message but if you guys know about this, all will be wellcome !!!!!!!
This is Andrea, Basis COnsultant. I am writing to you because I was reading lot of messages in SAP SDN regarding DMS and SAP Content Server.
I saw you have participated in lot of messages. I am specially interested in one of them which is about Sharepoint.
The customer I am working in would like to use Sharepoint as global Content Server and I would like to configure Sharepoint as SAP Content Server in order to save documents and attach them to sap objects (scanned invoices, manuals, cad drawings, etc)
I know it is not possible since Sharepoint is not SAP certified and http inteface from SAP (archivelink) does not work with this product.
I have read about Inet.DM and thinks like this.
I read you have configured SHarepoint as WebDav. In some post you have written:
Hi guys,
There is a third way, where you end up using Sharepoint as your content server
1. COnfigure a content server to use file storage
2. COnfigure the file area for webdav
3. The webdav is the sharepoint webdav
Voila, you are using sharepoint as your content server.
Why the heck you would do that is beyond me, but it works.
Ok, the question is:
I am using ECC60 and I dont have file storage option.
Is is possible to explain this again or sent me screenshots os OAC0 ?? It would be very useful.
Thanks so much in advance for this.
Andrea

SAP Content Server Configuration multiple repositories

Dear Gurus,
We have a content server configured with SAP CRM.
Recently we faced issue with large size of generic object created by user monthly in SAP R/3 (SOFFCONT1 growth ) thus we are considering to use content server for generic object storage.
Could you please advice?
1. As far as I know , I can have multiple repositories in content server thus can have my R/3 and CRM repositories in same content server , Please correct me , Any importent aspect which should be consider while doing such( except growth recalculation and user load for additional R/3 system).
2. We are running SAP R/3 from past few years and we have a huge number of generic objects in R/3 database.
Is it possible to migrate existing generic object to content server?
Thank you
Regards
Ahmed

SAP Content Server configuration CSADMIN username password

Hi all.
I am having problems when I try to configure SAP Content Server 6.40 after installation. When I try to run csadmin to set up the content repository, I constantly get this login prompt. I have tried using the default SAPR3 user and password, but I only get access denied. The SAPR3 user exists on my MaxDB 7.6. I have also tried setting AdminSecurity=0 in the ContentServer.ini file, and the login prompt is still displayed.
Does anyone have any idea on what username and password I should use, so that I can try to complete the Content Server config? Also, if you know of any decent guidelines for the content repository configuration, I'd be happy if you provide me with some documentation..
Thanks!
Regards,
Thomas

SAP Content Server 6.40 on Windows 2003, IIS 6, filesystem storage

Hello:
We have installed SAP Content Sever 6.40 on Windows Server 2003, IIS 6, and using the filesystem as storage, not SAPDB.
The installation goes without any issues and completes successfully, but the test URL http://<host>:<port>/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo returns "The page cannot be displayed" and not the expected system info/status. We need to fix this before moving on to config in ERP, any suggestions into Content Server or IIS settings/configuration is appreciated.
We're using the standard install port 1090, and testing from a browser in the same host.
Regards,
Eduardo

Additional information:
Looking in the event viewer under application, I see the following 2 errors:
1) The HTTP Filter DLL D:\Program Files\SAP\Content Server\ContentServer.dll failed to load. The data is the error.
Data: 0000: 0000007f
2) Could not load all ISAPI filters for site/service. Therefore startup aborted.

Using MS-Sharepoint as a content server from ECC 6.0

Hi, gurus.
From the
[SAP Content Server Installation Guide|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/cfa73246-0a01-0010-71b4-bc21ccb45c99&overridelayout=true]
...you will find this information:
You can find a description of the SAP Content Server Interface in the SAP Library (on the documentation CD or under www.//help.sap.com) under SAP Web Application Server u2192 Basis Services u2192 Knowledge Provider u2192 Content Management Service u2192 SAP Content Server HTTP Interface. If you want to integrate another content server into your network, the new content server must fulfil the requirements of the interface.
My simple question is:
Is it possible to use MS Sharepoint as a content server from ECC 6.0 ?
Please advice.

Hi Athol,
Thanks very much, your answers are very helpful.
To use SharePoint as SAP DMS for document management. We have depend on the 3rd party products like iNet.DM from ERP.Link or Duet Enterprise and separate licenses required for products?
Without this 3rd party products, it is not possible to use SharePoint as SAP DMS?
What is best and cost effective way of achieving this requirement?
Thanks and Regards,
Venky.

Document Migration from CRM to SAP Content Server

We are going live with SAP CRM 7.0 next week. CRM team configured some of applications like ITSM, Change Request Management and Transport Request database also as part of implementation.
We got last minute requirement that CRM team would like to go-live with current configuration with current configuration and eventually they would like to migrate all documents to Content server.
We do not have content server in place yet and planning to implement sometime in Feb. I am trying to explore ways how we can export existing documents created in CRM and migrate to Content server and link it.
Any ideas/Suggestions?
Thanks,
Miral.

In which repository are the documents currently stored in CRM? Please see if Note 688241 on 'Relocating large SAP Content Server Repositories' could be of any assistance to you.

Storing of MSDS in SAP Content Server - Part2

Hi Friends,
I already raised this issue in link given below.
Storing of MSDS in SAP Content Server
Ealier I did not tried this as we did not received the hardaware,
Now I did configuration as per the note " 1408009 - Settings for EH&S Product Safety documents" for SAP EHS document Type.
But when I try to generate report, its giving me error as given below.
Check Document Type SBR
Internal error in function C14SX_DOCUMENT_ORIGINAL_PUT (exception 0)
Saving document data has failed
Error while checking in and storing: report.rtf
Can you guys help me if any more configurations are needed or am I missing something. The content Server is of OpenText and not SAP Content Server.
Thanks.
With Warm Regards
Mangesh Pande

HI Mangesh,
Try to figure out if it is only DMS related - or if it is something wrong with the EH&S part of the setup:
Create an SBR Document manually via CV01n.
If this fails - at least the DMS Setup is wrong.
If this works - DMS settings should be fine and the problem is on EH&S side.
Check the Application log for errors as well - there might be more details in there.
