ITS Debug - Connection to Partner Broken

Former Member

We are running EBP 3.0 no MS SQL Server / WIN2000 and the 640 kernel patch 80. ITS version is 6.10 (patch 30) and 6.20 (patch 16). Before applying the latest SPs and 6.40 kernel the ITS debug worked as advertised. Now, I get 'Connection to Partner Broken' WSAECONNABORTED.

I have a 2 week old open OSS message with SAP that is several pages long and I'm no closer to a resolution. Has anyone seen this problem?

Method: 1. Set ITS to debug active (different in 6.10 and 6.20). 2. Set debug port. 3. Create SAPLOGON entry with app server = ITS server, system number = debug port. 4. Launch ITS session to BBPSTART home page, select 'Shop'. 5. Launch SAPGUI entry on debug port. This should connect to data stream from ITS, however it doesn't connect to anything. Level 3 trace offers no clues. It's like it dies at the network layer, but the debug port shows in the registry and the debug port (sapdpxx) is in the services file and is 'listening' (with 'netstat -a').

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Hello Mike,

does the SAP GUI for Windows (WinGUI) "die" immediately, or does it time out after some time? In the second case, have a look at note 725872. A side effect of this correction is that the WinGUI cannot connect to the ITS Agate until the next request/response cycle. So you need another step 6. Perform any action in the browser window that triggers a request/response cycle.

Jan,

Thanks for the reply. The WinGUI dies immediately. I saw that note. It's almost like it never trys to connect to the session. I have been able to get a message to the trace file indicating that the session is no longer active. I really believe this is a bug at our kernel/patch level. It worked with 6.10 before I upgraded the kernel, ABAP, BASIS, and EBP SPs.

Thanks again,

Mike

It turns out that SAP no longer supports Flow File Debugging. It was discontinued after ITS 6.10. From OSS Note 747011: "Since Flowlogic is an obsolete programming model, we do not plan to continue to support the flow debugger with ITS 6.20."
