Mac+JavaGui+BW Project

Hello,

I have a Mac and JavaGui and want to create a BW Project or a ABAP Project with Eclipse Luna. However I have difficulties with the connection, which is working in Java Gui.

During logon with eclipse it says:

Logon to system ORC failed (hostname 'WDFM32914109A' unknown)

The hostname is my local PC.

The Connection is builded in expert mode with the following string:

conn=/H/<mymonsoon>.mo.sap.corp/S/32<instance_number>&client=001&user=<myuser>&systemName=ORC

Do I need to add an additional router in the beginning of the connection string, or what does it mean, if it says hostname 'mymachine' unknown?

Regards,

Michael

Hi Michael,

try adding an /etc/hosts entry for your local machine:

127.0.0.1     WDFM32914109A

You can find information on how to edit your Mac Hosts file with a simple search "mac etc hosts".

Cheers
