PowerDesigner Web application doesn't work

Former Member

Any one receive the "The requested resource is not available" when trying to run the new PowerDesigner Web application?  I have upgraded to 16.5.5 PL02.  The old Portal application works fine but the new one returns HTTP Status 404.  With some tinkering, I was able to get it to prompt for a user and password, but it wouldn't authenticate.  Now it won't even make it that far.

The solution for this issue was that the classes folder under powerdesigner-web\WEB-INF folder was empty for some reason after installation.  Re-installing again seemed to resolve the issue.

Hi Jonathan,

It could be many things.  First thing I'd is check your version of JAVA and jdbc.  What database is your repository on?

I am using the version of JAVA shipped with the product (sapjvm_7_jre folder so I am assuming JVM 7.0).  The JDBC used is Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.0 for SQL Server and used the 64 bit authentication file.

The database is SQL Server (Enterprise Edition 64 bit - 10.50.6000.34).

Make sure your JAVA home is pointing to that version of JAVA.   Try using sqljdbc4.jar if you haven't already.  

If that doesn't work, have you looked at the log files in the Portal and the Tomcat directory.  They might shed some insight into where the problem lies.

Confirm that that version of java is 64-bit by running 'java -version',

Tomcat and JDBC don't care about whether you are running 32-bit or 64-bit Java, but if you are using MSSQL and the authentication DLL used by the MS-JDBC driver is 64-bit, you need to run 64-bit Java.

Your best bet is to run SQL Server authentication (logon/pwd) and not unified login.  This is easier than trying to configure a service with its own login to autheticate through the driver.
