SingleSignOn without SAP Portals?

Hi,
we want to use SingleSignOn on the Mobile Client, so I looked into all the documentation about the SSO and how you have to configure the client and all that.
But the documentation is all for the SSO between the SAP Portal and the MI client, but I would like to use the Windows authentication and not a SAP Portal with an online connection. Unhappily we have a multiple user szenario on the client, so that depending of the windows user a different mobile user has to be logged on.
Has anyone done something similar? Is it possible to do this via a specific configuration? Can I replace the authentication module and implement something by my own?
Greetings,
Kai

Hi Kai
For SSO to work in MI, you can rely on any ticket issuing system that can issue an SAP Logon Ticket. But what is tested, documented and released is, the SAP Enterprise Portal is the ticke issuing system for MI and not any other system. Windows authentication can never be used for SSO on MI.
Can I replace the authentication module and implement something by my own? I am afraid, you cannot do this.
Hope this helps

CAF without SAP Portal

Hi,
Is it possible to use ALL CAF functionalities and potentialities without having portal installed?
A customer has portal from other vendor and wants to use our CAF Framework to develop composite applications and integrate with their portal, is this possible?
Thanks & Regards,
John

Hi,
Depends on what you want to use from the CAF framework:
1. CAF core
2. CAF UI/Guided Procedures
CAF core is a toolset and a runtime environment to create business applications, which can be published as, for instance, web services.
These webservices can be used from any other system/language. For the execution of these applications you need at least a SAP Web Application Server with the CAF components installed.
With CAF UI you can model processes in the portal, based on services that can reside anywhere, and execute these from within the portal. For this you need a SAP Portal installation.

Connecting webdynpro's to MS Sharepoint without SAP Portal

Hello,
A client wants to use ESS in combination with Microsoft Sharepoint Services. But they don't want to use the SAP Portal. Is it possible to use the standard SAP Employee Self Service without using the SAP Portal? So connect the standard webdynpro's to Microsoft Sharepoint Services?
Thanks in advance.

Nope, unfortunately, that's not an option. Everyone (SAP, MS) has confirmed to me this is not possible in a standard way, so I'll keep it at that....

How to Create Webtemplate in SAP BI 7.0 without using PORTAL?

Hi,
I'm junior consultant sap BI ; I want to do a webtemplate in BI 7.0, but the firm doesn't have SAP Portal.
I want to know if I can create my web template in BI 7.0, without using a portal? If I can do it, please tell me how!
Thanks very much!
Edited by: Gaudenzio on Jul 1, 2009 11:26 PM

you will have to use WAD3.5 for that - you cannot use WAD 7.0 without having a JAVA Stack or the necessary JAVA Components installed in your app server.
Then the question would be :
Even if you do manage to create a WAD7.0 template without a JAVA Stack - you cannot run the same since it required portal...???

Can we achieve SSO in the SAP Portal without a third party tool

Can we achieve SSO in the SAP Portal without a third party such as Netegrity?

Kirk,
Sorry I misunderstood what you were trying to setup.
If you want to connect the Portal to a Non-SAP Application then I believe that you would need to use a third party tool like Netegrity Siteminder.
We have a portal that is protected by Siteminder and then we have a .NET application that is also protected by Siteminder and SSO is setup between the two since Siteminder is used.
Hope that helps,
Keith

SAP Portal ESS SingleSignOn

Hi!
We are facing following Problem in our Sap Portal Environment.
First of all SSO was working as intended. But after a Windows DC Migration with new computernames and new physical hosts we had to reconfigure SSO on our Portal-Servers. After the reconfiguration, SSO seemed to work again for everyone....but then some users started facing following problem (maybe 1 out of 100): That user cant login to SAP ESS via SSO. But when that person moves to another computer SSO is working there. So basically AD-Useraccount seems to be ok. So we thought "ok maybe a local computer problem". So a user with a working SSO tried to login on that "problem-computer" that had SSO problems. But SSO was working there suddenly with that user. So basically its not working only with that one useraccount on that specific computer. That user can login via SSO on every other computer and also other users can login via SSO on that "problem-computer". We have several users right now that are facing that problem on their own computers.
Our Windows group says that they cant see any problem in their Active Directory and point with their fingers on the SAP Portal as error source. So my Question: Is there any chance, that this problem really has his roots in the SAP Portal. i mean SSO is working for like 99% of the users. only for like 1% its not working only on their own specific computers. On other computers those 1% can also login via SSO.
i would be really thankful for every idea!
regards Alex

Hi,
for SSO, the browser has to get a HTTP 401 from the server. The browser should than get the token and send it to the server:
Authorization: Negotiate YIIQCQYGKwYBBQUCoII long cryptic text P/TCCDBdxfqo=
If the browser cannot resolve the SPN, or get it wrong, the browser will ignore the 401 or send a short Authorization answer back.
What you can check besides the HTTP trace with the user::
- Check if the computer of the user is in the domain and that the DNS is set correctly on that computer
- Verify the logon process on the server with diagtool (complex but gives you every detail)
- The users are using the same userID in the LDAP and UME?
- All are using IE or some are using Firefox? In both the configuration for SSO has to be enables. IE: Windows integrated authentication + check the security zone. In FF: about:config and enter the correct domain.

SSO from Microsoft to SAP portal

Hi guys,
I am stacked in something regarding SSO, the problem here is that I have to create and ASP.net application able to create the SAPLogOnTicket and bypass the SAP portal logon screen and everytime I am using may application I have not to log in again in the SAP Portal.
Anyone who have an answer or a working example, please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Armando

Hi Armando,
if your application is extranet application (you access it from internet) then you need to use citrix to log in to the portal without asking for username and password.
if the application is accessible from the intranet then you need to identify the application in the portal landscape system. for more information on this subject you can read the following useful help:

We have to using WebDynpro tool for this portal and backend oracle database.Here there is no SAP R/3 server only EP server.
So my question is that without SAP R/3 admission process workflow is possible in portal or not. If yes how can i develop / configure and customizing the same workflow. Is there any tool in EP here we can do this.
Please any one can guide me the same and send me some documents which is related to EP workflow..

You can use Guided Procedures which is a "light" edition of Business Workflow.
Search for 'Guided Procedure' and you will find a lot of documentation and material guiding you through implementation of various types of solutions.

ESS with ERP2005 (without a Portal)

Hi,
in the moment we are using ESS with SAP Enterprise (4.7).
Now we are planning the Upgrade to ERP2005.
We have several customers who has outsourced their HR Processes to us. We maintain their ESS on our SAP Servers.
If we change to ERP2005 the problem is, that our customers have their own Portal which is often no SAP portal. The Portal is a very strategic IT part of our customers, so we have no access to the Portal. On the other hand our customers has no HR know-how to maintain the ESS om their own.
We heard about the internal ESS. May be this could be the solution in our situation. Where can we get more information about the internal ESS. Who has tested this software already.
Best regards
Thomas

Hi,
the internal ESS is nothing else than an EP 7.0 "in disguise". It is a regular java stack, portal 7.0 and the BP for ESS and MSS just in one install on the same machine than HCM.
It is of no difference if you are using a regular external Portal Scenario or an internal ESS.
Generally speaking, SAP will push the Portal. It is now more or less mandatory for ESS/MSS and BW - SRM will follow with the next release. Web Dynpro will be essential part of the GUI-Strategy and WD without portal makes not a lot of sense.
So, customers with a different portal will need to pursuit a "Dual Portal" strategy in future, because there will be no WD integration int other portals. SAP stated very clearly in internal discussions that customers with a different portal strategy will have serious integration problems.
What I recommend is using EP for integration of SAP and use KM with federated portals for "syndication", i.e. for content integration of other portals.
When you are a provider of services, that would be a good point to start as a service offering

SAP Portal Integration - The plugin secSAPR3 does not exist (FWM 02016)

Hi Gurus,
I have some problems with the integration of SAP Portal.
I have created an iview in the SAP Portal with a Webi Report.
When executed, displays the login page of InfoView without any authentication option, only request user an password. When I insert my credentials, appears the following error:
Account Information Not Recognized: The plugin secSAPR3 does not exist (FWM 02016) and I cannot login.
Previous to this error message, appears an alert from the Session Management, advising me that the application will launch in other domain. I donu2019t know what problems can lead this fact.
I have configurated the SAP Authentication in CMC and imported roles and users from BW. I can use the same user and password in both environments and works fine.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
Isaac.

Hi IRoyan,
First let's explain why the plugin secSAPR3 doesn't exist:
1> when you view report from SAP EP to the report in BOE, it would use OpenDocument view application to logon and open the report.
2> and the secSAPR3 plugin is the file of secSAPR3.jar;
3> So it means the secSAPR3.jar is not in the classpath of OpenDocument application.
How to resolve it:
1> In the existing BOBJ solution, the secSAPR3.jar is included in PartnerPlatformServices;
2> So please try to modify the web.xml under the directory $INSTALLDIR$:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\OpenDocument\WEB-INF, add the logon service URLcontext:
    <context-param>
        <param-name>config.logon.service.context</param-name>
        <param-value>/PartnerPlatformService</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <context-param>
        <param-name>config.logon.service.url</param-name>
        <param-value>/service/app/logon.do</param-value>
    </context-param>
Hope you can understand it and it helps.

Do we need to install SAP Portal for implementation of ESS & MSS

Hi All,
We are implementing SAP (ECC 6.0) for one of our client, Due to some contractual limitations, we do not want to implement SAP portal though it is a part of standard delivery, I want to know that is it absolutely necessary to install and implement SAP portal for implementation of ESS & MSS.
What i know and understand is that with the new architecture ESS & MSS can be deployed and accessed as a stand alone application on an internet browser by (Web dynpro client) without any need of enterprise portal. While ESS & MSS application can be hosted on Web application server.
Please validate my understanding if it is correct, Also does the new Web dynpro based client support all the functionality and authorization related issues for ESS & MSS ??
Regards
Amit Ajmera

Hi Amit,
Yes, you can run ESS/MSS as WebDynpro application without having to deploy on Portal. However, the look and feel and user accessibility is much better when deployed as Portal page. For WebDynpro, you will still need to publish the individual URL link to application somewhere...
Another point is that on portal you can deploy standard Business package specific to ESS and MSS which contains lots of readymade iviews/page/roles etc so it can reduce your development cost dramatically.
But, at the end it all depends on your individual requirement and project scope.
Cheers !!
Satya.

Consume an existing WebService over an SAP Portal Application

Hi all,
I would like to consume an existing Web service, which has been implemented under AXIS 4 1 and deployed to a tomcat 4.1 installation.
I've developed an SAP Portal application with NWDS (Dynpage-Structure), which has to call this web service. For this, I've generated a standalone proxy client over WSDL of this WebServie under WebServiceWizard of NWDS and called it from my Portal Application, without success :(. But when i call it (proxy) from a standalone java client (Class with main-Method), it function.
Can anybody help me, for calling this WebService
Regards
Ahmet Büyükyilmaz

Hi Ahmet,
open a browser on your portal server (or try telnet) to check if you can access your axis server. Seems like you have some firewall or routing probs.
Just enter your web service uri in address bar of the browser to see if you can get a connection. If you do not have a browser, try:
'telnet <axis-server-name> 80'
from command line. Does anybody listen?
Is your web service designed to be used by anybody? Or do you have some kind of authorization issues?
HTH,
Carsten
