Developing an application in SAP HANA

[Former Member]

Hello Everyone

Am trying to develop an application in HANA as taught in OPEN.SAP course.

Question 1 :

1. In the system repository i have created my own workspace and done the check out on my package.

2. After that, i have created a new project in the Project Explorer and added few files ( .xsapp , .xsaccess, .xsjs ). Now when i right-click on my project and go to TEAM i should find commit and activate options, But am not able to find it.

Question 2 :

From my browser, when i give saphana hostname:8000 , i was expecting the SAP Hana XS Home page But i could not find it.

Could anyone please help me.

Regards

Prashanth

Hi Prashanth,

To answer your first question, You will have to share the project with repository, before you can use Team-->Commit, and Team-->Activate. Unless you share the project, the project is just a local one, and hence, team options are not available.

For your 2nd issue, unless you are giving the IP address, or full host name directly, you will have to edit your Hosts file. You can find your hosts file at :

<Windows Installation Directory>\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

You will have to create an entry in hosts file as follows:

<your application server IP address>

imdbhdb

Once you have done the above, and assuming your HANA server instance number is "00", you should be able to see the initial XS screen at :

http://imdbhdb:8000

I would recommend taking a look at the HANA Development Guide ( http://help.sap.com/hana/hana_dev_en.pdf ). Chapter 5 includes information and a step-by-step tutorial on creating your first application.

　　

To access your application you use the server url:port/[application path]/filename. The port number is 80 then the instance number, so 8000 would connect to instance 00, for instance 01 the port would be 8001 and so on.

Below is the URL for the "hello world" example from the developers guide:
