UWL and WebService

Hi,
Maybe someone can help me. I have created a new UWL connector, which works fine so far. The data, which the connector should write in the UWL should be provided by a Web Services.
What I tried: I have created a Deployable Proxy which should be call via JNDI during connector runtime. Result of this is, that the connector throws a time out.
Then I tried it with an intermediate layer: Call the proxy in an stateless EJB. I test it by deploying the EJB as WebService and there it works correct. But now I want to call the EJB in the UWL connector via JNDI. The problem: during runtime, the connector doesn`t find the EJB Classes, so that I get a PortalApplicationNotFoundException.
I tried to configure a reference in to portalapp.xml, without success.
Has anyone an idea, how I can solve this?

Directory structure for servlets and webservices in one application

hi,
Can any one help me for creating servlets and webservices in one
application and deploying in Jboss 4.2.0.
I want to know exactly what is the directory structure for creating this
application and what are the additional .xml files for deploying this application.
if any one know this answere please tell the answere.

I figured out a solution - it's a problem of policies. In detail: Server1's codebase entry (file:) refers to the class directory of Server1's project. In the simple case of only Client1, which has no codebase entry, it works fine without a file permission on the side of Server1. In the complex case of Client1+Server2, which has to have a codebase entry (file:) refering to the class directory of the Server2's project on a separate machine, for exactly the same method call from Client1 to Server1 a file permission entry on the side of Server1 is needed for Server1's class directory. But WHY ???
It seems to be a little confusing with the codebase entries, many of the posts are contrary to others and to my personal experiences. Some comments given by Adrian Colley throw a little light upon some aspects. Is there anybody, who can explain the whole topic, when, why, and which part of RMI application deals with codebase entries, also in case of not dynamic code downloading ? May be there is also a reference into the java docs, which I didn't found up to now.
Thanks in advance

How to add 1 more column in standard portal UWL and map the values.

Hi
I have one issue/requirement, please help me out on that also.
In portal UWL, i want to add one more column TICKET ID COLUMN, and ticket id value I will be putting as work item ID of abap Workflow, so whenever approver opens his portal UWL, in first column i want to show ticket ID say 00012345, so how to add this ticket ID column in standard portal UWL and how to put/map value of work item in that column.
My idea behind this is, when ever say employee wants to know the status about his ticket ID, he can simply ask his manager regarding the ticket status by referring to that ticket ID which manager can easily find in his portal UWL in that extra TICKET ID COLUMN .
Do I have to change anything in SAP inbox also ? Do i have to add 1 more colum in sap R/3 inbox also ? and will adding 1 more colum in sap inbox (R/3 inbox), will create automatically one more ticket ID colum in portal UWL also ?
please let me know , as i do not want to add 1 extra column in R/3 inbox, just i want in portal UWL extra ticket ID column should come and i want to put workitem ID generated at the start of workflow, in that colum in portal UWL
please help me on this.
Thanks...

Hi Satyam,
These are called custom attributes. Here is a powerpoint that may be able to assist you with the documentation that the other poster gave you too.
Always remember too when you make a change on the backend R/3 side, you must reregister your UWL connector. And yes, the column must be available on the backend R/3 side. We can't create on the fly columns in the UWL, that have no reference to the backend system in this case.

Making a call over HTTPS with LoadVars, XML.load(), and WebService - Yes or No?

Hello, do LoadVars, XML.load(), or WebService support HTTPS-based endpoints, Yes or No?
BACKGROUND
============
I've been trying to get a LoadVars to actually make a call to an HTTPS endpoint. There is nothing in the documentation that says it can't. I know that there's also XML.load() and WebService class, but from the looks of it they don't do HTTPS.
During my tests I have absolutely no issues with making calls to the same service over HTTP. When I change it to HTTPS I don't see HTTPStatus or even failures. Also, netstat on my server will show a connection being established with the endpoint when using HTTP but not when using HTTPS. I've also tried setting SSLVerifyCertificate to "false" in my Server.xml and after a restart of AMS it doesn't help, same symptom.
I've also googled and looked through all Adobe forum posts that I can find:

All I need is an official supported/not-supported from the Adobe staff. Shouldn't be to hard after 5 years or so of ignoring the questions in the forum right?

BPM and Webservices

I'm new in using of BPM and Webservices
Netweaver version is CE 7.2 SPS03
I use Web dynpro to write a ap to trigger web service for start BPM process.
It took about 40 sec for waiting response when i trigger the synchronous web service.
And i get a exception "DEFAULT_WS_METADATA_DEST. The server response timed out"
But i check my process status, it is running ok.
When I tested for asynchronous web service ,I get quick response for it
Does this version only support asynchronous web service?
Do I need another configuration to use synchronous web service?

Hi
For process start you need a asynchronus web service (no output / response).
Also, you can use a synchronus one if you are aware of this: If you use a synchron web service, you have to model a parallel split at the beginning of the process and finishing one of both tokens directly. This way, a response is generated when the first token hits the end event and the rest of the process is handled asynchronus.

BPM 11g: JAVA API and Webservice API

Who knows BPM 11g: JAVA API and Webservice API?
Customer want to call BPM 11g between Heterogeneous systems, such .net framework. One way is use webservice API, I think, but where can find it? thank you

When you create a BPM application in 11g, you're actually creating a SOA composite application with a BPMN component in the composite. From within the BPMN editor, you can specify the interface (parameters) of each start node in the process. If you select a start node, look at the implementation tab, you'll see a properties group that lets you define the interface one property at a time, or by selecting an interface from the catalog.
By defining these properties you're also defining the shape of the Web Service interface that will automatically be created in the composite. If you switch to the composite view, you'll see your BPMN process with a wire to it from a Web Service that's generated from the interface defined in the BPMN editor. The naming convention is the BPMN process name with ".service" appended. When you deploy the BPMN process, the web service will also be deployed, since it's also part of the composite. From Enterprise Manager (EM) you can test the service and get the WSDL, which could be used by other applications (e.g. .NET) to start and interact with a process instance.
This is one of the advantages of the 11g architecture. The composite exposes services to consumers/clients. The implementation could have been BPEL, BPMN, a Mediator, Java/EJBs, or any combination working together. To the consumer, it's just a web service.
In case your next question was about security ... you won't see properties about security in the BPMN editor. You use Web Service Manager to apply security or other constraints to the web service endpoint.

UWL and WD abap integration

Hi,
I am trying to integrate UWL and web dynrpo abap. I have set the visualization paramaters in the transaction SWFVISU. So when I click on the link in UWL the web dynpro abap applications opens.
To access the parameter I go to the default window plug.
But the problem I am facing here is that I need the UI of flex for my application. To pass value to flex I need the parameter in the WDDOINIT of the view. Can anyone suggest what is to done here as the default window plug executes after WDDOINIT of the view.
Thanks

correct me if i am wrong...
first wddoini then default window then wddomodifyview method willl trigger..

SLD conf for JDBC and webservice

Hi,
I am coonecting to source and target via webservice or JDBC.Do we need any configuration in SLD for systems.Driver and webservice has all details to connect to source and target system.Please confirm me if I am wrong.

When you have complete tech details of the system, you can create a Business System for the same and import it into your ID.
In short, a Business System represents a physical system.
When you don't have complete info for the system, you can create a business service in your ID.It represnts an abstract service that makes connection to the source/target system.
The choice depends on our own.

we recently upgraded our SRM 5.0 system to SRM 7.0.
I'm working on the initial configuration of the system and need some inputs on UWL configuration.
We are not using solution manager.
Can someone send me the links for UWL and POWL configuration in SRM 7.0?
Also whose responsibility is UWL and POWL configuration?

Hi,
UWL configuration is explained here http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/Portal7.0andSRM6.0Integration(PartIII)
Also you could use http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/48/56d4a5e2b61ed2e10000000a421937/frameset.htm

UWL and notification service

I am currently investigating UWL and its features.
The scenario I am facing is a portal application where users need to be notified on a portal iview (a customized UWL based iview?) about events like file uploading in a KM folder(s) or they would get a custom notification due to a specific business rule. Previously I did some "experiments" by using the RecentNotification iView with not satisfactory results...
Do you think UWL could be the solution for our needs? I found that docs and infos on SAP sdn are a bit limited and "messy" about this subject so... any suggestion would be much appreciated. Best scenario could be a step-by-step tutorial.
thanks in adavance for yr support

This code registeres certain event handlers in the KM, on which the received-method is called. Depending on the event type you may start some processing like creating notifications.

Approval of Working Times tasks show in UWL and shouldn't

Our employees use ESS to record their working time and the managers use MSS to approve that time. Occasionally the task Approval of Working Times, along with the sender date, name and a Cats attachment, appears in the managers UWL which makes it look like someone has time to be approved however, we do not go to the UWL to approve time. If this task is clicked on in the UWL a u201CService cannot be reached HTTP 404 u2013 Not foundu201D error is thrown. The send date of this task does correspond with a date when the employee entered time in ESS which the manager approved a few days later in MSS. So it appears that occasionally but not regularly or in any sort of pattern, time workflows to both MSS where the managers approve it and to the UWL where we donu2019t want it and sits there and drives the managers crazy. (Managers do go to the UWL to approve PCRs.) We have checked the workflow log and cannot see a split. How do we prevent the time approval from routing to the UWL?

Hi,
For me it seems that the the workflow should be turned off. There are ways to disable tasks from UWL, etc. (to not show them), but I would definately take a look to the CATS configurations in SPRO (unfortunately I don't remember the exact path, but it should not be too difficult to find). Basically there is place where you define that which workflow task is send to the manager when the employee releases the timesheet. You can perhaps remove this task from the configuration or perhaps there is some checkbox or something where you can turn of the workflow or whatever. Take look to this first. If you have CATS/HR people on your site, they will probably know what I am talking about.
Another perhaps good option could be that you do certain configurations for UWL and then the CATS approval application is opened when the managers click the item in UWL -. but I would first try to prevent the work item to be sent to the workflow at all, if it should not be sent there at the first place.

Unable to add XML and Webservices Datasource in Crystal Reports

Hi,
when I am trying to add a Web service datasource upon clicking the XML and Webservices Datasource in Database Manager I get the following error.
Invalid Arguments Provided.
Details: Java server startup failure. Verify PATH (JDK), CLASSPATH, and IORFileLocation properties in the CRConfig.xml file. In addition, verify that you are using JDK 1.5.
I am using Windows server 2003 OS. Java is version 1.6. I tried the below things but none of them worked.
1.Edit the crconfig.xml file to add classpath and license information
2.reverted to java 1.5
3.uninstalled and installed the CR 2008 software. None of these worked. Please help.

Thanks Don but my issue is not proxy related.
I am not using a proxy though I am using a VPN to be in the network of the Webservice hosting server. Also, my problem is that I am not able to even enlarge the XML and Webservices Data source to add any xml or web service file let alone the one I want to.

EAI and Webservices

Which is the intersection point between EAI and Webservices?
Regards.

Hi Harmeet,
I hope its because ODI is an E-LT and OWB is ETL tools. As i said in the previous post E-LT approach needs less servers and provides good speed.
Thanks,
