Use of ESR

Hi All,
Just a doubt.
ESR is shipped with PI 7.1 and CE 7.1
Enterprise Services are provided by Ehps.
ESR contains meta dat for services. So if you want to implement those services, you can generate proxies by connecting to ESR and write your implementation code through Outside in approach.
My Questions--->
1) What is the use of delivering ESR to customers? As SAP is developing Enterprise Services with an internal Ecosysytem.
2)What is the benefit end user or customer to use ESR?
3) When SAP says it is delivering Enterprise Services through Enhancement packages, Does it mean that it is providing implementation of those services which are defined in ESR?
How does ESR and Enhancement packages are synchronized?
Regards,
Piyush

Some more cents from my side.
Answers for questions 1 & 2
1.1. Services that are delivered by SAP include two parts - one is the implementation of the services and secondly, we provide the corresponding metadata. The metadata is modeled and delivered in the form of proprietary models (that are standards compliant). In order for you to browse and understand these models, you require ESR which allows you to import these models to understand what the enterprise services are and navigate to appropriate documentation for them.
1.2. ESR also allows to model your own custom services and reuse the SAP methodology (include our model types, our global data types etc.) while defining your own services.
1.3. As Sudip mentioned, ESR also becomes a one source truth and the central place to enforce design time governance on top of all your SOA assets.
Answer for question 3
>> When SAP says it is delivering Enterprise Services through Enhancement packages, Does it mean that it is providing implementation of those services which are defined in ESR?
Yes!

Can we use the ESR of XI 7.0 with the Microsoft SAP Duet Enterprise

Hi Experts,
I am working on the Microsoft and SAP product DUET enterprise and we are going to use ESR of XI netweaver for defining the web service structures.
In demo we have used it with PI 7.1 where we have the concept of Service Interface with multiple operations.
But we have PI 7.0 in the landscape which has Message Interface instead of service interface and doesnt have multiple operations.
My doubt is whether we can use the IR of PI 7.0 while working with DUET enterprise.
If Yes, please explain in detail.
If no, what are the varios options available?

Hi Disciple11,
As you said, Service Interface with multiple operations are supported from PI 7.1 onwards. Mostly SAP does not deliver enterprise services with multiple operaiotns as it would be impossible to import for customers those who are in lower versions like XI 3.0, 7.0 etc.
For DUET enterprise, you can create a back end operation proxy in service consumption layer either from a RFC or from a WSDL URL. Nevertheless I think it would not be possible to import the PI content with multiple operations for a serrive interface to PI 7.0 and below.
Thanks,
Sankar

Where-Used between ESR and Integration Builder

Hello everyone,
i am wondering if there is a possibility of finding out where and if esr-content is used in the Integration Builder (Conf.time)?
I often face the problem that i have got ESR-Content in front of me, where i don't know if, and if yes, where this content, for example a Service Interface, is used in Configuration-Time!
How can i determine this?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Markus

HI Markus
in ID use following path..
Object--> Find.
it will open search requirement window..
in that select receiver determination if you want to check outbound service interface from IR.. or select Interface determination in case you want to check for inbound service interface..
suppose in IR side you have outbound service interface : CreateCustomerOutbound
then in ID go to find and select receiver determination and in interface provide CreateCustomerOutbound
this will search all scenario where CreateCustomerOutbound is being used .. likewise you can narrow it down in Find option to get the required results in less time..
but no direct method for search..
Thanks,

Can I use Flash Player plugin version 11.2.202.228 with my Firefox ESR 10.0.7 instead of the most current Flash Player plugin?

I am trying the Tor web browser software pack and it comes with Firefox ESR 10.0.7.
Right now, I'm trying to install a Flash Player plugin because it doesn't have one in this Firefox ESR 10.0.7 already, or this browser just doesn't see the slightly older Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have already installed on this machine.
'''Is there a way to make this Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser see the Flash Player plugin 11.2.202.228 that I already have installed on this machine without installing the newest, possibly problematic Flash Player plugin?'''
I already have the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin installed on this machine, a PC with Windows 7 ULT, because the most current versions of the Flash Player plugin had some problems and they wouldn't allow Flash content to play at all, so I reverted back to a slightly older version of the Flash Player that was reliable, crash free, and most importantly, it works.
But when I try to play any Flash content in this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser it tells me I don't have a Flash Player on this machine, or installed as a browser plugin or add-on, and it wants me to install the most current Flash Player on this machine, which I DO NOT want to do for the reasons I stated above.
My other Firefox browser, along with Google's newest Chrome browser and a newer version of the Safari browser for Windows, plus an older Internet Explorer 8, all WORK JUST FINE with the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 that I have installed on this computer and Google Chrome and Safari didn't even require having newer Flash Player plugins installed at all... they just see the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have on this machine and they play all Flash content perfectly.
So can I just make this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser see the existing Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have on this machine?... and if so, how do I do that?
Thanks for any help.
Also, I'm not able to find an actual community help forum for Tor, even via their "Torproject.org" website... is there one?
Thanks,
numetro

You should actually be using Flash 10.3 (11.2 is insecure).[[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox#w_solution-2-downgrade-flash|Solution 2: Downgrade Flash]].
Also, is there a reason you are using Firefox ESR? It's mean for organizations, and doesn't include all the security and stability fixes that Firefox latest (15.0.1) has.

Use of Services without SR and ESR

Hello, for this one I need to explain something:
I'm writing my diploma about ESOA. Because of this I allready have created a application which uses Enterprise Services. But because I used the ESWorkplace I've had some restrictions.
- If I used the SR of the ESWorkplace together with a in my CE generated Destination I could not use the Services because the SR gave me the SAP internal URL to the service(iwdf...) which I could not reach. I solved this problem the following way:
- Get the Service-WSDL-Url from the ESWorkplace
- Create a WSDL Destination in the CE with the WSDL-URL from above and the System-Data of HU2
- Use this Destination in WD Java for an adaptive Web Service Model and again the WSDL-URL
With these steps I was able to use the Services. But I had to create a destination for every single Webservice. It's ok, it worked and this was everything I wanted. But as a result of this I haven't used the ESR and the SR at all. Because all i needed was the WSDL-Url of the service and the system data of the corresponding System.
Now the question comes up: In case of a ERP System with installed Enhancement Packs without an SR or ESR: Would I be able to use the Services in the same way? I mean: in /wsadmin on HU2 I'm able to get the wsdl-Url. But could this information also be found there without a SR or ESR?
I have tried to use the services of a CRM 2007 System (which has preinstalled services as CustomerQuoteByID) we physically have here in our company. But I simply don't get the needed WSDL-URL. In fact the Service can't be found in /wsadmin. Is this because of the missing SR and ESR? Or am I doing something wrong?
I really don't get the neccessarity of the SR and ESR at all. Ok, I know what I can do with them. Modelling Services with the ESR or using them if I don't have a supplier. And Browsing available Services in the SR. But if a customer has no CE or PI and because of this no SR and ESR: Would there be a way for using his services. Don't get me wrong: I know how to use bapis and rfcs, and I also know the the ES only use the BAPIs with an additional Interface with some extra functionality like failure and exception handling. But how to use these ES without the ESR and SR?
I hope you understand my question. I would be very happy about an reply!

Hello!
I'm trying to use a ResourceBundle to store properties
that arn't locale-specific - its a sort of
look-and-feel type arrangement. The way more specific
ResourceBundles inherit properties from more general
ones would be really useful, but since its not a
locale that's used to pick a particular bundle I'm
having trouble working out how I can use it for this
purpose.
Has anybody used ResourceBundles for non-locale
specific uses before, or does anyone know of anything
else that might be more appropriate?
Thanks loads for any help!!
NicolaYes, you make up your own Locales with anything you want in place of the language, country, and variant. As long as you're not setting the Locale, it works great!
ResourceBundle laf = new ResourceBundle.getBundle("skins.properties", new Locale("flavor", "chocolate",""));will get all resources in skins.properties and over-riding entries from skins_flavor_chocolate.properties".

How to Send One file to different Receiver Systems without using ESR Object

Hi Gurus
I have developed two interafces in my current project and they are both By pass scenarios. My requirement was to Send Data from MDM system to BW system. This development does not involve any ESR objects, By Pass sceanrio.
Now there is the requirement to Send one file or files from MDM system to different BW( two BW systems for different regions)
How can i accomplish this.
here we are not using any ESR Objects, so to maintain any condition in Receiver Determination is not possible.
Please let me know how to do this.
Tahnx in advance.

Hi Arjun,
If i understand your situation correctly, You need to define two separate Business Systems/Components in SLD for each BW system.
if you intend to send the file from MDM to both the BW systems, then you need to configure the following:
1. If you want to follow the classical approach (for this by-pass scenario):
a) Two receiver channels - One for each BW system
b) Two receiver agreements for each channel
c) One Receiver determination - with both the receiver systems added as receivers (w/o condition)
d) Two interface determination - Dummy mappings as it is a by-pass scenario
2. If yo want to go ahead with the Integrated Configuration (most preferred in this case):
a) Two receiver channels - One for each BW system
b) One Integrated Configuration Scenario (ICO) with both the receivers configured in Outbound Processing tab
Let us know if you were looking for something else (as your problem statement is not very clear)
Hope this helps.

Firefox ESR 10.0.12 disables flash plugin - updates to the last version do not work?

Suddenly - without any actions by me - FF ESR 10.0.12 refuses to accept Adobe Flash? (System Win 7 64 Ultimate)
It started with a very annoying bar, which cost me 2 hours to deactivate, which told me to update an very old and unused Adobe Reader plugin. Then it insisted, that the Foxit PDF reader plugin was not up to date. Since I do not use it, I deactivated it too. Since I seldom use Flash, I just found out today, that youtube does not work anymore - FF insists, that my flash plugin is too old and it deactivated it.
This has cost me hours up to now and it is _exactly_ the reason why I use the ESR channel.
What I did:
Deinstalled Adobe Flash completely (using Windows). Used the normal Firefox update, which it recommends (your flash player was deactivated, please install...). No success, it simply goes into a loop, always telling me my flash player is too old.
I also installed it directly from Adobe (the Firefox version!!), in all cases it reports version 11.5.502.104. The last version from Adobe - but it seems to be too old???
I am spitting angry now - this kind of trouble is the reason I only use ESR versions from Mozilla. I do not want your chaos troupe to play around with _my_ installation. But obviously you found ways to do so.
If this is not solved (and no, I will _not_ reinstall Firefox, I will _not_ delete my profile) in a few days, Firefox is dead for me. I am already looking to Chrome and Opera. Many friends have these browsers - I am a bit conservative, and I want my browser stable and the look an feel should be stable also. I do _not_ want a new version every two weeks, which every time costs my effort and time to configure it how I want it.
The question here is: How did you manage to disable the last version of Flash, and why? Why must I now register here and invest valuable time to get my browser to work again?? If I had done something, installed or removed something, ok. But I did not. (And yes, up to now I did update Flash and other plugins, when I was prompted to do so)
Clearly _your_ management does _not_ work: If I use the solutions which FF itself recommends, it sends me in an endless loop: Install newest Flash, sorry, Flash is outdated, install newest Flash...
Is this the 'new security'? Bah. If you did this for the 'normal user' (which you obviously do not respect anymore), you failed. And you failed completely for me: If software insists to do things 'automatically', it should at least do them reliably, _or_ it should ask. But working in the background, changing important things, reporting nothing, and then failing is exactly the reason why I disable all 'automatic' activities and want to be _asked_ before some idiotic piece of c.... deconfigures itself - and stops working...
Hints to the Troubleshooting Info below:
At this time Flash player is installed, shows in the systems software list as 'Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin', Version 11.5.502.146. The rest are my normal plugins. Serveral changes to about:config were done by me in an effort to make FF usable again, without nagging 'info' bars...

Additional information - according to the wiki you pointed me to, it was correct to uninstall flash using Windows control panel. I am very sure that I already had the latest version installed from the beginning, because Flash player pointed me to an update on Windows start (as usual) several days ago.
The error clearly lies with FF, since despite an up to date Flash player it decided it wants it new - something to do with the blacklist? How can it tell, that its outdated, if it does not find it and not show it in the list of plugins?
There is something fishy here...

I recently upgraded from Firefox ESR version 10 to version 17.0.7, and the Serch by Name function no longer works.

I was using Firefox ESR 10.0.11 and was forced to upgrade to 17.0.7 yesterday, even though my cfg file is set to not allow updates. Since the upgrade, the Search by Name function has stopped working, i.e.: I used to be able to type "yahoo" into the address bar and go straight to yahoo; now, when I type anything that is not a complete URL into the address bar, it goes to allied.com. I have already gone into about:config and changed keyword:URL to http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= and have also installed the Search By Name add-on. Neither of these work. Please help me.

Thank you for your reply. However, had you read my issue in full, you'd have noticed that I have ALREADY downloaded and installed the "Browse By Name" add-on, and it DID NOT work.

Integration using PI 7.0

Hi All,
We have an integration scenario wherein we are trying to integrate ECC 6.0 with SAP TM. The integration scenario needs ESR as SAP has standard services for this purpose. We don't have PI 7.1 so we won't be able to use the standard content given by SAP . Is there any other way by which we can achieve this integration by using the standard service implementation which is available in the SAP TM.
Any help in this area would be really helpful.
Thanks and Regards
Arvind

Hi,
If you have to use SAP has standard services then have to go for PI 7.0 to use the ESR.
Else you need to use other direct alternatives such as RFCs to communciate directly with SAP Enterprise Portal TM.

How do differentiate standard vs ESR firefox in management tools

I'm part of an enterprise considering using Firefox ESR, but which may also continue to have some installations of non-ESR firefox. Is there a way to quickly and reliably identify whether a user is using regular or ESR firefox when viewing network/surfing activity in various management and/or security tools?
The user agent string doesn't seem to be of help, since both esr and non-esr firefox may show up as 10.x (or 17.x or 24.x in future releases).
Thank you!

The ESR version is currently 10.0.3 and shows as such in the user agent.<br />
There is no regular release of Firefox 10 with a version number of 3 and above (10.0.2 was the last Firefox 10 release), so that should be enough to differentiate for now.<br />
There is no other way to see if the ESR version is used AFAIK.

Firefox 31.6.0 ESR version not allowing upload of files (404 error)

I am using Firefox ESR version for my organization. I am not able to upload files to a web based COTS product. I had no issues in ESR v 24.1.1. Is there a setting that I can use or something I'm missing? I have seen that this was an issue in the home use version, but not sure if it will be fixed in the ESR version.

So, in same environment on another machine (same GPOs applied) I have 24.1.1 ESR. No issues with uploading files.
A bit more (novice) explanation: To configure my security tools that use a web gui, I need to upload config files. When I click "upload" in any given tool, I get the 404 error. If I go to the 24.1.1 version, I get the gui to browse for the file and upload it.
Does that help a bit?

Content not Launching in Firefox ESR on Ubuntu

We are currently experiencing issues launching content in OLM using FireFox ESR 31 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS using JDK 1.7.0_67. This is currently affecting over 15000 users.
Please help with advice

What's your application release? Assuming you are on 12.1.x ..
Was this working before? If yes, any changes been done recently?
What's the error you get?
Is the issue with OLM only? Is accessing the other modules working as expected?
Do you meet the requirements in https://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/firefox_esr_31 ?
I don't think you have EBS installed on Ubuntu with 15000 users as you wouldn't get support from Oracle -- This is not a certified OS for any tier node (Application, database or client).

SAPGlobal software component in ESR

Hi all,
I have a CE 7.1 SP4 installation + ESR. I have tried to find the SAPGlobal software component in my SLD but it is not there. Should I not have it there or there is some mistake?
Best regards,
v s

Hi Rathish,
Thanks for the reply!
I have one more question related to this topic.
Since I have only CE 7.1 SP04+ESR installed, the only way to create services using the esr is to actually
1. create my own service definitions in the ESR(process comps, business objects, service operations...), or download what I need from the marketplace,
2. then create the java beans in the NWDS (client and provider, wsdl -> java),
3. create the business logic in the NWDS,
4. publish the services on my Service registry and then
5. use them.
Is that correct?
Or other possibility is just to test some services provided by sap through the https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esworkplace page?
Best regards,

Configuration of ESR in CE

Hi,
Currently i am configuring CE 7.2 system. In the SAP documentation its mentioned that i can configure the ERS on CE by executing the step Configuration of ESR in CE from the wizard.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce72/helpdata/en/46/b3a7d01b475a62e10000000a11466f/content.htm]
But i could not find any step as such in the list. Could some one please help where can i find it? Or am i missing something here?
Here the actual plan is that we will use the ESR of PI.
Many thanks in advance.
Prasad.

Hello Prasad,
These wizards are available in NetWeaver Administrator(NWA). To get into NWA, first enter the startpage of server ex: http://<host>:<port>. Click on NetWeaver Administrator(NWA). Then, Configuration Management -> Scenarios -> Configuration Wizard.
It should list the option to configure the ESR.

Sharath
