Cannot start workbench after upgrade to xMII SP05

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

we have recently upgraded our MII development system to Support Package 5 (12.0.5). Now, when I try to start the xMII Workbench on a client machine I get an error "Unable to launch the application" which is displayed by Java Web Start. Here's the inner exception trace:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://server-31:50000/XMII/CMSLogicEditor/iText.jar

Regarding this issue I found SAP Note 939211 but it did not help (I have cleared up all cache files for Java Web Start and also tried to start the workbench on different machines). I have Java Version 1.6.0_07.

Thanks in advance for any hint on this issue!

Hi there,

I could solve this problem by re-installing the PDF-Actions on the server.

Thanks alot

Hi Achim,

what was your old version? The problem seems to be with the iText.jar.

Do you use the PDFAction custum action?

We had the problem from SP3 to SP4. SP3 works with iText but SP4 works only if uploading iTextAsian.jar additionally.

Perhaps my note "Configuration hint for PDF Action in 12.0.3 / 12.0.4" in this forums helps you.

Regards
