Create J2EE system object

[Former Member]

Hello,

I recently installed the latest Sneak Preview Java WAS 6.40 + EP6.0 (SP16). I created 'normal' R3 systems according to the help.sap.com docu and the postings I found in this forum and as far as the connection tests are reliable this worked.

Now I'd like to create a system object in the portal representing the underlying J2EE WAS itself. In the creation wizard I tried several templates among them 'SAP system using dedicated application server' (which made most sense to me).

However the WAS connection test (after creation) keeps failing - all steps except the 'connectivity to the defined back-end application'-check are ok.

The properties I used are

WAS host name: localhost:50000

WAS path: /webdynpro/dispatcher/

WAS protocol: http

The system type is SAP_R3 (one can only choose between SAP_R3, SAP_BW and SAP_CRM ?!).

I can't find anything specific on J2EE system creation in the docu, can anyone advise?

Regards,

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian

create <b>new</b> SAP system using dedicated application server

and only provide the property for WAS and User management (with saplogonticket). and create the system alias.

the property u provided for WAS is ok just change hostname from <b>localhost</b> to <b>host.yourdomain.com</b>

don't provide the connector property so there are no system type i.e SAP_R3

there is no connetcion test for this type of system. it's always failed coz ther are no connector property.

u can use this system for webdynpro application.

Hi kaushal,

thanks for your fast reply. I guess I will have to exchange certificates between portal and j2ee server in order to be able to choose 'saplogonticket' in the user management property, right? What does the additional property user mapping type 'admin,user' mean?

hi sebastian

since ur portl and J2EE Engine is same so there is no need to exchange the certificates (both is same system)

u have to defin e the user mapping type in the user management.

property user mapping type 'admin,user' is a Type of user mapping for connection.

normally as per help doc we prefered this mapping type

if u have further query revert me back if ur problem is solved close this thread.

Kaushal, btw, I'd like to reward points to you, but something is not working - I get an error 500 + a long stack trace from the SDN portal whenever I try to

Thanks Kaushal, then I won't worry about the 'failing' connection test anymore

As for the user management property <i>logon method</i> I forgot that even in the case of certificate-based authentication userIDs (for the same user) may still differ in the various backend systems (thus the necessity of the additional information <i>user mapping type</i>).

P.S. Just for conveniance (if somebody else is reading this thread), this is what the docu says about the possible user mapping type-values for a system:

admin = This system is displayed in the user mapping administrator tool

user = This system is displayed in the user mapping tool for end users

admin, user = This system is displayed both in the user mapping administrator tool and in the user mapping tool for end users

If this property is not defined for a system, the system does not appear in the user mapping function

Hi Sebastian,

Thanks for clearing doubt about user mapping type

it's also useful for other who read this thread.
