Document opening in ECL viewer from cFolders

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are using two different servers for R/3 (ECC 5.0) and cFolders (3.10) and linking through RFC. We have installed ECL viewer and Java components as per Note: 809922. But in cFolders, files are not opening through ECL viewer and it is throwing error. Is there any setting in cFolders to activate the ECL viewer.

Also please clarify how DC30 settings will be considered if two servers are available.

Regards,

Hi Prasanna,

Note 809922 has these settings:

Which version of ECL view are you using?

Which version of java runtime are you using?

Even after doing the changes if you cannot see the files in the viewer, install and re-install the java as well as the ECL viewer again.

Also try on some other machine. At times its just weired.

What is the error message? Which file type are you trying to open in ECL viewer

HI Reema,

Thanks for prompt reply. All file types are getting opened in native application only. If native application is not there (Like Autocad), it is prompting users to select the application. Where we do settings that files should get opened in ECL viewer. (Like DC30 setting in R/3)

Hi, there is setting under DMS especially for 2D and 3D files as per Workstation application. 2D files of type dxf, tif, jpeg and 3D files of type stl could be opened by ECL viewer. If you are trying to open the application within cFolders. Go to the corresponding document, check if under "red-lining" a number "0" gets displayed (this is for the first time). If not that file is not suitable for redlining ( for example MS files like word, excel etc.). Please let me know and we would take it from there.

thanks

Hi Anantharam,

Yes. I could see the redlining "0" in files like tif etc.. But when i click it, it is showing error as "Redlining requires a local installation of the ECL viewer package. Installation was not found on your computer". But ECL viewer is available in the local machine and we can open the same in R/3 DMS. Also we have followed the process mentioned in note:1177883.

Is there any setting in cFolders environment to activate the ECL viewer.

Please note that we are having two different servers for R/3 and cFolders.

Hi, you can do the environment related settings under

My computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Environment Variables

Under class path enter these things:

C:\Program Files\ECLViewerInstall\SAPViewer\java\VisWebS.jar;C:\Program Files\ECLViewerInstall\SAPViewer\java\eaisupport.jar;C:\Program Files\ECLViewerInstall\SAPViewer\java\

Under PLMVIS_51_LIBPATH;

c:\program files\eclviewerinstall\sapviewer\java

Let me know how it goes.
