Issue: Create Quotation with a product results in a error: "no connection could be made to IPC".
Also, choosing 'Conditions' Tab results gray/empty tab with "Pricing doc. does not exist" message in the status bar.
Landscape: Single host Win2k, CRM 4.0 sp03 IDES with IPC SP08. No issues on CRM side other than the above mentioned. So far we did:
1) Installed IPC.
'dispatcher.properties' file contents:
-
rfcEnabled=true
rfcDispatcherProgId=IPC_RFC_DISPATCHER
rfcServerCount=1
rfcServerProgIdPrefix=IPC_RFC_SERVER_
rfcGateways=ALPHA:sapgw00
<end>
2) Added "ipcuser" and gave system roles according to note:412309
3) Maintained RFC settings for IPC_RFC_DISPATCHER and IPC_RFC_SERVER_1. Both as (host:alpha), (Gateway:sapgw00)
Started IPC dispatcher, server. IPC logs look good.
~ IPC Admin utility was able to login with "ipcuser" and client 800.
~ monitor pulls up server on port 9163. Test create document works fine and IPC reports Operational.
4) RFC Testing (SM59) connections
IPC_RFC_DISPATCHER and IPC_RFC_SERVER_1 tested ok and reported time.
>>>> However, using (SE37)
5) IPC_COM_SESSION_BEGIN executes to a error screen of:
__________________________________________________________

So, digging further,
6) IPC_COM_SHOW_SERVERS executes to a error:
ET_DISPATCHER_LIST : 2 Entries <<<<<
<details>
IPC_V_RFC_DISPATCHER - communication failure <<<<<<
hostname 'iwyf7yta' unknown / CPIC-C error CM_PARAMETER_ERROR.
Here are my questions:
-
a) Do you find anything wrong with my configuration?
b) why is the need for IPC_V_RFC_DISPATCHER?
C) Does this mean that I need to run more dispatchers and servers??
(i.e. each for IPC_RFC_DISPATCHER/server, IPC_V_RFC_DISPATCHER/server and IPC_WOV_RFC_DISPATCHER/server) - because these destinations are defined in RFC DESTINATIONS under TCP/IP connections... and they don't have program ids registered... so their test connections fail...
and more importantly, am I even on the right track in solving my pricing issue???
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
