SAP_ADSCALLER role not found

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am trying to configure ADS for my portal (java standalone Netweaver 2004s). I created a group called ADSCallers and created a user ADSUser. But i am unable to find the SAP_ADSCALLER role to assign to the user. Do i need to install anything before configuring ADS?

Hi Sridevi,

Please check the below options also:

Setting Up the SSL Connection in a Java Environment:

Configure an SSL connection between the Java version of the PDF object and the Adobe document services Web service.

To set up the SSL connection in a Java environment:

1. Log on to the Visual Administrator.

2. On the Cluster tab, choose Server <x> u2192 Services u2192 Web Services security.

3. Choose Web Services Clients u2192 sap.com > tc_wdpdfobject u2192 com.sap.tc.webdynpro.adsproxy.AdsProxy*ConfigPort_Document.

4. Change the URL to https://<Host>:<Port>/AdobeDocumentServicesSec/Config?style=document

5. From the Authentication drop-down list box, select X.509 Client Certificate.

6. In the Client Certification Authentication area, from the Keystore view list, select ADSCerts.

7. From the Certificate list, select the certificate associated with the user that is assigned the ADSCaller security role, which you created earlier.

8. Choose Save.

Creating a Destination of the Destination Service in the Java Environment:

To create the new destination, proceed as follows:

1. Choose New in the navigation panel.

2. In the dialog box that follows, specify the name "FP_ICF_DATA" (type the name exactly as given) for the new destination and choose OK.

3. As the target URL, enter the message server (or Web Dispatcher) of the SAP Web AS ABAP in the URL field:

http://<hostname>:<HTTP_port>;

and in case of SSL,

https://<hostname>:<HTTPS_port>;

4. Select the authentication method to use for the connection, and enter the parameters for the authentication method in the corresponding fields (if applicable). You must enter the existing service user ADS_AGENT with the correct password.

user = "ADS_AGENT"

passwd = .........

5. If the connection is to use HTTPS, then specify how the connection should handle SSL server authentication.

6. Save the data.

And your is only java rite? its not dual stack.

Please check the above options and also please check the ADS guide for your patch level(java).

Let me know if you have still any issues.

Thanks

Yes i did this and also installed the credentials. However when i click on the url http://<server>:<port>/AdobeDocumentServices/Config and then click on test and then provide the ADSUser and password it does not succeed. The test fails. It stays on the same page.
