SOAMANAGER - Alternative URLs for WSDLs and Endpoints in ECC

Hi All,
We are publishing enterprise services using SOAMANGER transaction in ECC system. In
our development environments we have no problem with the process.
However in our cert and production environments we have loadbalancers,
with SSL offload, and so both port and URLs for the endpoints and WSDLs
need to reflect the different port/url introduced via our loadbalancer
and SAP web-dispatchers.
We have looked at note 11325985, which provides good guidance - however
when we use the alternative host / port as described on page 2 of the
note the service cannot be saved and activated -
Steps for Reconstruction
Run Transaction SOAMANAGER in one of our ECC systems SED/SEQ/SEP
Activate a standard SAP enterprise service, i.e
ECC_CUSTBASICDATABYIDQR_V2
In the Transport Settings tab of the Configuration of Web Service we
enter alternative URL - our load balancers URL for cert is
erp.XXX.com and for prod erp.XXX.com. When we save the
service it produces the following error ( when we don't specify an
alternative Access URL there is no error;
ERROR: ICF: Error when creating alias node: rc: unknown nMethod:
Alias Create; return code 15
Error Message Number Screen Number Transaction Program Table
Regards,
Ramesh

1-Use the Tx: SRT_TOOLS
2-Double-click on "Display of Extended Service in Current Client Configurations"
3-Complete the "Configuration Name" with the name of the endpoint / service
4-Click on run
5-Double-click on the "Configuration Name" found in the left tree
6-You will obtain the url you are looking for without using the SOAMANAGER
7-Enjoy

Single URL for internal and external CRM access when using IFD

Hello,
At one of our client site I have setup IFD on CRM 2011. This IFD is behind TMG. My client is a big corporation therefore all CRM components including CRM, ADFS and SQL are on separate servers.
I have configured IFD using single url https://orgname.contoso.com Their IT staff wants to know why can't they use single URL for internal and external access where internal users are nto prompted for authentication
when logging on to the CRM server. I know you can do URL re-write in ADFS but they want to know the reason "why internal users can't use the same IFD URL and don't get prompted for their credentials". Text below is from their IT staff.

There are several approaches to your question. You need to set up both an internal and an external relying party trust. If you use the external URL, it will always direct you to the signin page, if you use the internal URL, it will resolve you single
sign on.
I've configured IFD for CRM multiple times, and this is how it works. CRM looks at the URL. If you use the external URL (org.domain.com), it will prompt for credentials. So what you are asking for, a single URL that works single sign on internally and prompts
externally really isn't possible.
What I recommend is:
1. make the external URL available internally
2. Configure all outlook clients against the external URL, that way you won't have to reconfigure when someone goes internal to external
3. Have users who are primarily internal use the internal URL for the web client, which will resolve single sign on
4. Have users who are primarily external use the external URL for the web client
For #1, since you only need to enter the credentials when you first configure CRM, it is in all effects single sign on.
One thing I haven't tried that may work is using IIS redirect internally to redirect the external URL to the internal URL. There is also a powershell script in the IFD guide that you can use to make the outlook client switch between the internal and external
URL's, but nothing that will give you a single URL that works as the internal relying party trust when internal and the external relying party trust when you are external.

WebDynpro scenario for Objectives and Appraisals in ECC 6.0

Does anybody know if the scenario for Objectives and Appraisals under WebDynpro is available in ECC 6.0?
Our customer prefer not to use the BSP scenario and we know SAP was working in a new one based on WebDynpro but we can not find any information about that.
Any information will be very useful.
Thanks in advance.
Cristóbal.

Help with alternative URL for service endpoint

I'm trying to define a WSDL service that is behind a firewall/load balancer.   By default, the wsdl service-endpoint is defined using the same URL prefix as the wsdl page itself. (e.g https://virtual_servicename...) However, we need to have the service endpoint use a different prefix as it does get converted by the load-balancer. (i.e. a firewall rule passes the traffic between the real host names, no virtual address is used)
Question 1) -- should I be using the transport settings tab in SOAMANAGER config to create an Alternative Access URL for Transport Binding?   (I'm not sure transport binding and service endpoint are the same thing.)
If yes to Q. 1, then question 2) -- when I attempt to create an entry in this area using the correct URL, it ends with the following error: "SRT Framework exception: ICF: Error when creating alias node. Unknown"
Any pointers what alias node is needed and where to defined it?
Thanks in advance.

My URL for WSDL has & symbol in it

I am creating a webservice and the URL for the WSDL that I am
using has a & symbol in it. I tried to encode it as %26 but it
does not seem to decode properly when calling it. example
www.site.com/service.php?service=webforms&wsdl I tried using
www.site.com/service.php?service=webforms%26wsdl but its used
literally. any guidance?

You can also use %26 I think

Get URL for List and ListItem

Hi,
I have a SharePoint List (SPList) and need to provide the URL for the list. It should be possible to copy this URL to the browsers address field and navigate to the corresponding Details or Overview View (or default view) of the list.
Additionally, I have a List Item object (SPListItem) and need the URL to directly navigate to the DispForm.aspx of this item.
I tried it like this:
string listURL = ... + "/Lists/" + myList.Title;
string itemURL = listURL + "/DispForm.aspx?ID=/" + id;
The URLs are correct as long as the "Internal Name" of the list is the same as the displayed name of the list. But in SharePoint it is possible to add a List-Template with no blanks in the name (e.g. 'MyList'), but later rename it and include a blank (e.g. 'My List'). In this case the listURL I retrieve with the above code snippet does not work anymore! For SharePoint only a URL with the list name without blanks is existent. In short: the URL does not include the blank for the list in the url but myList.Title does!!
So my question is, how can I get a URL that directly leads to my list's Details view (or default view) and the URL that leads directly to the list items "DispForm.aspx"??

Hi,
        It seems you need to get correct ListItem URL from ListItem’s property, and thanks for all helpful suggestions.
       In this situation, would you please try using List’s Form property instead of “SubString”, code like this:
        string itemURL = yourweb.Url+"/"+yourlist.Forms[PAGETYPE.PAGE_DISPLAYFORM].Url + "?ID=" + item.ID;
      Then you will actual retrieve the correct path to the DispForm.aspx page.
       Hope this sample can help.
Best Regards,

I am getting read WSDL errors for WSDLS and Exception building schema in the assign activity schema

Hi All,
1 st error: Even though I had added the URLs related to Webservice WSDLs that composite and BPEL have to load,I am getting 'read WSDL' errors when I open the composite.Sometimes it is loading properly and sometimes it is not loading properly.I restarted the system and I had aslo put webbrowser and proxy unchecked still I am facing that issue
2 nd error: As I any schema node in assign activity I am getting 'Exception building schema' errors.
What I feel I had set some memory settings so that wsdls and schemas will load properly.
Please do the needful to resolve these issues as I have to work on some production issues urgently.

Maybe you can use the MDS to decouple your development environment with your runtime environment.
Put you're WSDLs/XSDs in a local MDS that you then sync with your runtime environment.
Instead of referencing to the life WSDL you reference to a oramds:// url.

What are the URLs for webmail and the wiki?

I see that Lion Server supports webmail and a built-in wiki server, both available through a web browser.
What are the URLs for these; how do I get to them? I can't find that important detail anywhere in the documentation.

From /etc/httpd.conf
Alias -->name --> location
Alias /webmail /usr/share/web/webmail.html
Alias /changepassword /usr/share/web/changepassword.html
Alias /profilemanager /usr/share/web/profilemanager.html
Alias /webcal /usr/share/web/webcal.html

WSDL url for sender and receiver SOAP adapter

Dear Experts,
I am working on SOAP --> SAP PI --> SAP ECC synchronous scenario. That means I have to create 2 Cc for SOAP i.e. Sender as well as Receiver adapter. I am responsible for creating the Request as well as Response structure in SAP PI. The sender application team is dependent on me to get the WSDL file.
Please provide the suggestions on the below.
Sender SOAP adapter.
1. I will create the WSDL from Sender Aggreement. How to get the url and what is the navigation step? Should I provide the    same url to sender application team to call the service.
Receiver SOAP adapter:
2. In the receiver SOAP adapter , Should I have to get the web service parameter of the sender application. As mentioned , I am creating the response structure as well. That means I can not import the WSDL from the sender application. How to get target url in the receiver SOAP Cc.
I refered to the forum SOAP SENDER - test in soapui but its not clear.
Regards
Alice Rebecca

Dear Bhaskar,
For synchronous scenario
                                                            Request
MS Application (SOAP)<--> SAP-PI <--
> SAP ECC.
                                                                                Response
I am creating the Request as well as Response structure in SAP-PI and its agrreement for both
the ways.
So for the MS appl team, I will give the WSDL url from the sender agreement to make the request to SAP-ECC.
Now for receiving the response from SAP ECC, from where I should find the value to enter in the target url of SOAP
receiver channel.
1.Should I take the target url value from the MS Application team?
2.How to know whether the MS Application or SAP ECC is hosting the web service?

Alice

Not getting URL for WSDL to integrate with Xcelsius

Hi all,
I want to integrate Xcelsius with SAP data (Xcelsius should use data source as SAP data). First I had created a Function Module and using that FM I created Web Service. But when I tried to open SOAMANAGER transaction for that Web Service , the URL needed for integrating SAP data with Xcelsius is not coming (showing blank). So I could not able to connect that Web service with Xcelsius.
Can anyone please help me in this regard.. Any suggestion will be wellcomed..
Thanks,

HI,
which looks to me like an issue on the SAP Server side already so I would suggest you post the question into SOA area.

Use Same URL for Internal and External Access for CRM 2015 IFD

I have setup a CRM2015 server for IFD access.
ADFS and CRM are on separate servers.
CRM server all roles
ADFS 2.0 server.
Using the internal URL I am able to access CRM without entering my details (as expected)
Using the external URL I am authenticated by ADFS as expected and can sign in.
We have an internal domain domain.local
We have an external domain domain.com (the certificate is for *.domain.com)
We have a DNS zone created internally for domain.com.
CRM URLs
internal : internalcrm.domain.com
External : externalcrm.domain.com
I would like all users to use the same link regardless of them being internal or external, but I would like so that any user who is on the domain is automatically logged in without entering their username and
password. What is the best way to do this?
I have tried creating a cname record on the internal domain.com zone pointing externalcrm.domain.com to internalcrm.domain.com but that didn't work, I still get the ADFS sign in page.
Thanks

So fair warning, what you're asking for isn't really a supported deployment method of CRM.
That said, you should be able to do some DNS trickery internal to your network that points your "crm.domain.com" to "crm.domain.local" and then hopefully CRM will treat the connection as if it came from an internal network.
Otherwise, you're likely going to have to accept that everyone gets the ADFS login page internal and external to your network.

URL for WSDL only shows web service information page

Using tomcat6 and jwsdp 2.0.
After requesting the WSDL, I instead get the Web Service information page which shows this in a table form:
Web Services,
Port Name, Status, Information
etc.
Why doesn't it give me back the WSDL instead?

The information page must contain end point wise information displayed.
Each end point information contains web service address, WSDL address(you are looking for this I hope), Implementation class etc.
Also, try giving *?wsdl* parameter at the end of your web service address, it must lead you to the WSDL file of the web service.

Url for spry and web pages incorrect

Hi,
I am using Dreamweaver cs4 with Vista on an HP computer. My website is www.hiringsolutions.net. When clicking on the Select Intelligently button at the top left of the page it goes to "The webpage cannot be found." When I look at the url, it is completely different than what it should be. It is http://www.hiringsolutions.net/Content/Templates/SelectIntelligently.html , showing /Content/Templates in the url. That is not my url. Some of my pages are linked to it and my Spry is linked to it also. I have no idea where it came from. I know I must have done something but can't figure it out.
My url should be http://www.hiringsolutions.net/SelectIntelligently.html and if you click on the links in the middle of the home page, they work. I think this means my spry menu is not working. I did not know where to put this problem as far as the forum. I have two css pages, two sprymenu pages. It looks like this:
Source Code demo.css SpryMenuBar.js   SpryMenuBar.css SpryMenuBarVertical.css demo.css SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css SpryMenuBarVertical.css
The SpryMenuBar.js is using the incorrect url. It isn't working. I have tried going in and fixing it but get the error message "cannot be found. If the file exists on the server, use the files panel to get the file from the server."
The first demo.css and sprymenubars have the Content/Templates/ in their url and do not work. The next demo.css and spry menubars have the correct url and work. I do not know how to get rid of this incorrect url. There is no file by that name. I have a Content folder and a Templates folder but they are separate. I hope someone can help.
Thanks,
Beth

Hi Nancy:
Thanks so much for answering me. I did check my files and they are correct. What I finally did was look in my html and I found this.
<div id="imageFaces"><img src="../images/Newsletter Photos/Faces.png" width="673" height="103" alt="Faces" /></div>
<div id="sidebar1">
    <ul id="MenuBar2" class="MenuBarVertical">
      <li><a href="../Content/Templates/index.html">Home</a>      </li>
      <li><a href="../Content/Templates/aboutUs.html">About Us</a></li>
      <li><a href="../Content/Templates/contactUs.html">Contact Us</a>      </li>
      <li><a href="../Content/Templates/Workshops.html">Workshops</a></li>
As you can see, /Content/Templates has been inserted before my pages. I don't think I did this or at least I don't remember doing it. There is no reason for me to do it. I have gone thru all of these links and deleted /Content/Templates. I am putting all my files to my server and I hope this works. This is beyond my level of expertise.
Thanks again,
Beth

Masking HTTP inbound URL for security and control - Seeking Ideas

I am working to transition an application to XI that is based on HTTP posts from vendors to provide data. In order to use the XI Plain HTTP adapter for inbound requests, I need to provide the vendor a very long url and query string that identifies the target system as XI (since the query string structure) and makes it difficult to make changes to the configuration without notification of the vendor (because of the values required in the query string).
Has anyone found a way to mask the query string using a BPM page or another method to provide a simple url to integration partners that will translate into the fully qualified url within my environment?

We solved this by using reverse-proxy with URL rewriting on network (NETAPP) appliance.

Alternative "Cloud" for Contacts and Calendar Sync

After trying and giving up on Mobileme i am looking for an alternative to sync my OUTLOOK calendar and contacts between Home PC (Outlook 2003) Work PC (Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2007) and my Iphone, I really dont care how its done but i just want real time sync if possible (Paid or Free).
Thank you in advance for any help.
Mark

Mark,
If you have an Exchange Server you should use Active Sync, this gives you real time calendar, contacts and mail sync to your works mail server. You can then configure you home PC to connect to Exchange using Outlook Over Internet (OOI) access, this way everything syncs up to Exchange.
A common mis-understanding is that people assume your home PC has to be part of your work Domain for OOI to work, this is not true as long as you import the security certificate from the server.
