ERROR service 'sapmsBCD' unknown

I have installed the third release of Argo's preview....and am having difficulty getting it to work.

I read the previous comments by Kai, regarding the SES / BAPI configuration in the install wizard. I understand gateway host is supposed to be the message server and the R3 Name is the commonly referrerd to Instance initials.

In the Gateway-host field I have entered a series of different values, none of which were successful. Any assistance getting this thing set up would be appreciated.

Here are some of the values I have tried

In the Logon Group: "SPACE", "PUBLIC", empty

In the Gateway-host field I tried using message server connection and app server connections, below I list the variation for each:

Message Server

IP address(with Port)###.###.###.###:####

IP address(without Port) ###.###.###.###

Connection String

/M/###.###.###.###/S/####/G/SPACE

/M/###.###.###.###/S/####

Application Server

IP address(with Port)###.###.###.###:####

IP address(without Port) ###.###.###.###

Connection String

/H/###.###.###.###/S/####/G/SPACE

/H/###.###.###.###/S/####

I get the following error consistantly:

Is there something I am missing?

Hi Ryan,

To connect to the BAPI the SAP J2EE engine uses system services described in the <windows>/system32/drivers/etc/services.

The name of the service is calculated as 'sapms<SID>'. You have to do this entry manually on your Argo machine.

the entry for the mentioned BCD system:

sapmsBCD 6540/tcp

Hi all,

I had the same error of Ryan, now I have created my sapms entry on the service file in Argo machine.

The error now is changed in

Error during searching Partner:

Fail to init client by SIDConnect to message server host failed

Connect_PM TYPE=B MSHOST=sapsrv1 GROUP=PUBLIC R3NAME=EEC MSSERV=sapmsEEC PCS=1

ERROR Group PUBLIC not found

It seems that with Argo you can connect only SAP Group and not the single server.

To be more clear I would like to establish a new JCO connection with a single SAP server and not with a Logon group, is this possible?

If yes how?

During the creation of the new jco.destination I cannot find the way, I have also tried via admin tool but with no luck.

Some hint how to find the correct values (worked for me, is no official information):

sapms<System-ID> 3600/tcp # For JCo Desination. <System-ID> of the target system, port 3600 is its message server port (can be found e.g. in SLD / Technical Systems)
