Hello Gurus,
I have seen several discussions surrounding this topic but I could not find one that addresses our requirement.
Background:
In our scenario there are two SAP portals.
1) NW 7.31 using an AD User Data Store
2) NW 7.01 using an ABAP User Data Store
We are using the SAML2 redirect application (saml2/idp/redirect) from the portal 1 to allow SSO to portal 2 after a successful AD authentication on portal 1. The portal 1 is primarily deployed for SAP NW IDM application. The portal 2 is used for business applications.
Requirement:
The portal 2 has a customized login screen which needs to be deployed on portal 1 without affecting the standard SAP login screen that is used for /irj/portal.
So when a user uses the https://portal1/saml2/idp/redirect then they should see the custom login screen and when they used the https://portal1/irj/portal then they should display the standard login screen.
Problem:
If I follow the popular blogs and SAP documentations on this subject then it just replaces the standard with the custom login screen for all applications. We would like to keep both the options depending upon the application requested.
Thanks in advance for your inputs.

I'm stepping into a previously configured portal where it appears some config (or coding?) has been set to redirect incoming requests to /irj/portal to a differnent logon page depending on IP.
Requests coming from web dispatcher (which is in the DMZ with a public IP) go to one portal logon page while requests direct to the portal CI host go to the standard logon page.
I haven't been able to determine, or find, where this might be configured within portal admin and wonder if it's possible this was done programatically. Before I go to the developers I just want to make sure I've looked everywhere I should be for the redirect config.
Any thoughts? This is NW 7.0 EhP2.

This Blog Describe how to extract the total number of End users & Service users logon counts from each Portal server node using Authentication logs .This information correctly depicts the total number of logon, user has performed unlike the unique login of the user provided in portal activity reports. Analyst /Consultants can merge this information logs with the Backend ECC/HR/SRM/CRM user logs maintained in USR02 tables for further reporting purposes for determining business transactions in more detailed manner.
following are the steps :
1) Go to NWA log viewer of SAP Portal
2) Choose authentication log from view
3) Click everywhere and from advance filter choose date filter and set it for biggining of day time till present time click on apply filter
4) Now download the excel file of logs from log file download content
5) Choose all column and download
6) Save it on the location you like on your machine. Now open excel file and apply filter, Select all login ok and application irj logs and now choose and count the required users
Below example show total number of 120 logons from the selected date on all the nodes of SAP portal for all user types, user type can be selected from user dropdown (Service or end user)
Portal Consultants can merge this information with ECC/ABAP system user logs and device statistics and reports ,they can formulate a Excel template based on their requirement if they want and feed the data from ABAP system and Portal Authentication logs and generate Graphs out of it.
Main Advantage which I see in this approach is no coding required (Java or ABAP) and all the user logins(End users & Service users) based on the application(irj) can be identified from all server nodes, the approach works well in the Portal scenario where login screen is used by the users for Login to Portal.
Thanks for reading!
Hi,
We are on ECC6 EHP7 with Portal 7.4 and facing the Portal runtime error while trying to access the Appraisal document.
The error comes when we click on the Appraisal document hyperlink displayed in the Status Overview table.
I've referred to many SAP Notes including 1600380 but all of them are relevant to EHP 4 and thus not useful in my case.
Can someone please let me know how to resolve the issue.

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to integrate Taleo with SAP portal 7.31 using SAML 2.0 .
Please provide some pointers if anyone has come across this scenario . Links would also be helpful.

Hi All,
I am trying to integrate SRM MDM Catalog into Portal.
We installed the following files on Portal.
BP_MDM_APP 7.1 SP 12
BP_MDM_TECH 7.1 SP 12
BP_SRM_MDM 7 SP 12
MDM_CONNECTOR 7.1 SP 11
MDM_EP 7 SP 12
MDM_JAVA_API 7.1 SP 11
SRM_MDM_CAT 7 SP05
1. I copied the MDM_Catalog system object (template) from SAP content into our custom folder and gave all the MDM Server/ Repository info in the System properties and defined the alias SAP_MDM.
2. When I try to Test the connection, I get the following error.
No connection to system MDM Catalog found:
while trying to invoke the method com.sap.mdm.session.NetWeaverMdmDestinationProperties.getServerName() of a null object loaded from local variable 'destination'
Any pointers on what's missing?
3. When I looked into SAP Notes/ SCN forums on this issue, came across the MDM Destination tool. I tried to launch the MDM destination tool using the http://<portal host>:<port>/mdm/destinations, but I get an error saying the page is not found.
Do you know why I am not able to find the MDM Destination tool?
4. And do we need to maintain an entry in the mdm destinations to fix my SAP_MDM Connection error? We don't have custom applications, just MDM Catalog integration.
Please advise.
Thank you.

Can anyone tell me how to solve this ? Thank you.
In this Blog I will try to cover steps based on my experience for configuring Report Launchpad’s from Portal end, delivered with New business packages which uses ABAP launch pads for showing report links (Bex queries, Dashboards etc.) into standard delivered/Custom portal contents for EHSM, SRM, HR Admin,, ESS, MSS, LSO and many more,I have not gone in details regarding basic technical configurations done in Portal like system object creation and SSO as lot of information is available on SCN for configuration of the same.
While configuring the above business packages on Portal, important aspect is most of the standard reporting contents are delivered through Report Launchpad’s which are configurable in LPD_CUST transaction of backend/ECC ,Most of the Reports utilizes corresponding BI java system for rendering and pulls up the data from the Master BI ABAP system.
Initially I faced lot of issues with running these standard reports from Portal as did not found much information on configuration of those from Portal side like what type of system object is required, does it require BI ABAP system object or BI java system object etc.
Some issues like service not found while running the reports from Portal as reports were supposed to be executed from BI java, but they were getting executed from BI abap as i created the system object of BI abap with the given System Alias in Launchpad but it should have been BI java system object.
I thought putting my experience in this Blog to provide a small help to others who might be facing these issues in configuring the similar type of scenarios.
In this Blog I am only covering Portal Admin related configurations, configurations related with BI ABAP report authorizations, activations, LPD_CUST and ECC authorizations are out of scope for this Blog.
Following are the steps which need to be executed to configure the Report Launchpad’s from Portal end.
1) Prerequisites : In order to run the standard Launchpad reports from Standard or Custom roles from Portal as a prerequisite their BI ABAP configurations should be in place like reports/dashboards should be activated and other BI related configuration should be in place ,User should exist in systems and have proper Authorizations in BI ABAP,ECC and BI java system. Administrator must have knowledge and understanding of ABAP Launchpad concept. For configuring reports to be executed from BI java, system should be present and configured for BI master system.
2) Once prerequisites are fulfilled there is need to identify which type of BI system we have to create in Portal and its system alias name. To identify that first
we have to check in the Report launchpad what type of configuration is done for the standard reports and dashboards.
From Portal role we can identify the Role and instance of the Launchpad being called from the application parameter passed in iView property, once we have the role and instance name of the Launchpad being called, we can go to LPD_CUST and search the Report Launchpad in question. After finding the relevant report Launchpad an analysis is required of its configuration, we can pick up any report or dashboard and check how it’s being configured in the Launchpad, if their specified version is SAP BW 2.x/3.x ,that means they supposed to get rendered from BI abap master system, if in the configuration their version is given like SAP BI Net weaver 7.x that means they supposed to get rendered from BI java system. Once we have identified this we need to create the system object in Portal based on this information, either BI abap system or BI java system or both depending on the requirement. System alias used are also defined in the Launchpad configurations we have to create the system object with these alias only as given in Launchpad configurations of reports and dashboards in Portal.
3) If reports supposed to be rendered and executed from BI abap system then we have to create a BI abap system object depending on the system landscape either use Load balancer or dedicated application server system template to create the system object and give the system Alias same as configured for the reports in the standard or custom Launchpad’s. User should have proper authorizations to execute the reports in BI abap system also user should exist in ECC system and have relevant authorization for the standard role for the particular module like EHSM,LSO,MSS etc. as these Launchpad’s are shipped in ECCwith the standard EHSM,SRM and HR contents.
4) If reports are supposed to get rendered from BI java system then we have to create system object in Portal for BI java, and provide the same system alias which is given in Launchpad configurations of reports and Dashboards in LPD_CUST transaction,
Initially i was unsure on what type of system object i will be using for creating BI java system in portal as no standard SAP help material i found on SCN on this topic. Did some research on SCN and based on some threads i concluded that i can create a system object of type dedicated server or load balance server and i have to just populate the Web application server properties like WAS host name and Protocol to create a BI java system object in portal, i gave logical name as <SID>CLNT000 in system object properties and populated the BI java server url in WEB as host name and specified the protocol.
Next step was establishing trust between portal and BI java system, after performing it BI java system is ready for executing the Launchpad reports from portal.
Important point to note is User must exist in Portal, Bi java (No additional roles needed on Bi java server) and BI abap server and have proper authorizations in place for this scenario to work properly.
These are the basic steps which need to be taken care of while configuring report Launchpad’s based on ABAP Launchpad from Portal end.I hope this blog will help people like me who are configuring this scenario for the first time.
Happy reading, Comments and suggestions are welcome

I have tested the appliction from web dynpro java (right click the Appliction --> Deploy and New Archive Run)
Using Portal (7.01)
Created Portal iView for web Dynpro Java applicaitona and tested the application.

System configuration is done properly . SRM roles have been assigned to the users in backend. We do have new and in progress tasks in backend.
Can anyone suggest me what can be the possible reason of this issues.
An early response is highly appreciated.

Dear all,
We have a problem with a newly installed Portal application server / Dialog Instance: it is missing all applications in
/usr/sap/EPQ/J00/j2ee/cluster/server0/apps.
Background: Our QA Portal environment has had only one instance for many years; it is currently on NetWeaver 7.31 SP09. I recently installed a new Portal application server / Dialog Instance (call it "Server2"), using the installation guide "SAP Systems Based on the Application Server Java of SAP NetWeaver on Windows: MS SQL Server Using Software Provisioning Manager 1.0." The installation went smoothly.
I can start and stop Server2 normally, and can log on to it as well, but applications like ESS, Business Intelligence, etc. are failing. At the file system level Server2 is missing numerous files and directories. Following are some examples:
Any help or advice about these missing files and directories would be very much appreciated.

Hi, some time ago we upgraded from NW 7.3 to NW 7.31. This upgrade brought us a new "feature" - if user has opened a window with Universal worklist and minimized it to the tray, everytime this UWL is refreshed, it "jumps" out of the tray and it is automatically put to the foreground.
This feature is quite annoying for our users and we would like to switch it off. However, we were not able to find any documentation on this.
Can you please advise how to do that?
Thank you and best regards,
Tomas Hansut

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where user when opens the portal logon page then here user needs to provide the user id and password to authenticate. Once the authentication is done then user enters into portal.
Now my issue rather requirement is-
1) Once the user enters the credentials then this authentication needs to be done from the ABAP data store. Our portal is connected to LDAP but we need to authenticate the user with the ECC database not with the LDAP database. Ho can this be acheived?
To acheive this functionalti do we need to create any custom login module( If yes then what needs to be created?) or is there any other approach.
Any link or material will be helpfull on this.
Regards,
Anand
Is there anything can be done from SAP BASIS side ? ?
if yes what we can check ?
where we have to check ?
