DTR client disappeared. Need help!

[former_member186148]

Hello!

We had a problem described in We resolved it by running NWDS under another Windows user. But when we tried to work with new track (ESS) we've got another issue: our DTR client for new track has been created successfully but disappeared later! Since DTR client dsappeared we cannot check-in our modifications.

I found these records in logs:

Why DTR client disappeared? How to resolve it?

Please help.

Our NWDS is 7.0.14

OSS had resolved this problem. The reason was that .dtr and .dtc directories were placed in default place (user's home directory) which has a cyrillic letters in path.

Path to .dtc can be set up in file <IDE>\eclipse\plugins\com.sap.java.ide\plugin_customization.ini

Add the line at the end of the file

com.sap.ide.eclipse.component.provider/configPoolRoot=<path to .dtc dir>

Path to .dtr can be set up in the file parameters file which is in case of NW04 and NW04S:

<IDE>\eclipse\vm.parameters

Add a line at the and of the file:

-Dvfs.configfolder=<path to .dtr>

Hello,

Since you read my thread, you already know sometimes the DTR Client configuration is not working really well.

I don't know if re-starting the NWDS could work.

Otherwise, your colleague has create an activity and check-in it, so if you want to activate pending activities and have administrator permissions, try:

1. Log on http://<server-di>:<port-di>/devinf/main as user administrator.

2. Go to "Component Build Service"

3. On the top select 'Activities'

4. Search on the right Buildspace.

5. There are different Tabs, select "Pending Activities" and filter if needed.

6. If there, you see the activities, you can select and 'activate' or 'activate even if build fails' it.

7. You will upload + activate the source code of your colleague and will be able to get it when you sinchronize the DC again from another NWDS.

The last solution, would be to sinchronize the DC into another user laptop. Then override the local code of your colleague in this new DC. New activity will be ask for changes. Apply changes, check-in and activate.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

David.
