SLD import error in XI 3.0 SP 11

[Former Member]

Hi ,

When I try to import software components versions in IR from SLD I am getting the following error.

Error: Unable to read software component versions from System Landscape Directory

Details:

Unable to read software component versions from system

Landscape Directory "<hostname >:50000" (SWC_IMPORT_PROCESS_EXCEPTION)

MESSAGE ID: com.sap.aii.ibrep.server.sldaccess.interfaces.rb_SLDException.SWC_IMPORT_PROCESS_EXCEPTION

Did any body come across this error ?

Thanks

Did you run Transaction SLDCHECK on ABAP stack ? If not, run it and post the result.

Hi Shravan,

Thanks for your response. Here is are the details..

Properties of RFC destination SAPSLDAPI

RFC host: %%RFCSERVER%%

program id: SAPSLDAPI_XI4

gateway host: XI102029

gateway service: sapgw00

Testing the RFC connection to the SLD java client...

RFC ping returned exception with message:

Error opening an RFC connection.

Summary: Connection to SLD does not work

=> Check SLD function and configurations

Looks like your RFC connection is not defined properly.

Go to SM59 transaction and open TCP/IP connections, check SAPSLDAPI RFC destination is working correct by clicking on <b>Test Connection</b>

If it is not working correct.

To find your gateway host & service, go to SMGW -> Go to -> Parameters -> Display and look for <b>gateway hostname</b> and <b>gateway service</b>.

Then look for Program ID in Visual Administrator JCo Connections under services.

If you are still confused, download install guide and look for SAPSLDAPI, the documentation is available.

http://service.sap.com/instgudies -> Netweaver 04 -> Installation -> SAP XI -> Install Guide.

Shravan,

I made the changes in the SM59 to have the correct gateway host name for SAPSLDAPI and the test connection is OK now. I am still getting the same error, so do I need to restart the J2EE engine ?

Thanks

the error is for LCRSAPRFC or SAPSLDAPI ? It is always better to restart.

Hi Shravan,

I restarted the engine and still I am getting the same error I mentioned in my first message in the Integration repository when I try to import the software component versions.

Every thing looks good in the SLDCHECK transaction.

Thanks

Check your exchange profile whether the SLD is pointed to the correct server

com.sap.aii.connect.landscape.httpport =5<sysnumber>00

com.sap.aii.connect.landscape.name = <your SLD host name>

Shravan,

I checked them and the values are correct and I am still getting the same error.

Did your SLDCHECK gave positive results all the way through exchangeProfile parameters ?

I think you better open an OSS customer message. Sorry couldn't be more helpful.

Shravan, I will check with our basis person and then open OSS.

Thanks again for your help,

Is this problem solved? I am getting the same error as well. Everything works fine in sldcheck and able to open SLD from browser. But while importing in IR, I am getting this exception. Could you please tell what is the solution you found?

Thanks

I solved this problem but when I open the sld page in browser in the XI box itself(in the server where XI is actually running) it works. But If I open the SLD in the browser from my desktop, it does not open. Have anyone faced the same problem?

Hello Sunil,

Did you fix the error? Can you tell us how you fixed the error, we are receiving the same error.

Thanks, Linda

Can you tell me more about what it means that you can not open SLD in browser?? I mean what error message it shows? Anyway for your problem try this as it worked forr me.

Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

edit hosts file with notepad or some editor - add folowing entry to your hosts file:

<IP Address> <hostname where XI is Installed>

for example

192.168.1.1 xiserver
