Problems creating new Web Dynpro ABAP application

[Former Member]

All,

I am following this tutorial to create my first Web Dynpro ABAP application

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/fc/501b42b5815133e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

In this tutorial I was asked to create a component as Local object.

But after giving the name of the component, I get an alert saying

"Object can only be created in SAP Package"

When I confirm this, I was shown a "Create Object Directory entry" dialog box which asks for attributes like Package.

And this box has Local Object button, when clicked I get the message "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces".

I found some other article through Google

http://www.octavia.de/fileadmin/octavia_files/content_bilder/Hauptnavigation/SAP_NetWeaver/WebDynpro...

According to this, I tried to give $TMP as Package. But still have the same error

"Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces"

Where am I and what should I do to create a new project?

Thanks.

Hi Nagarujana,

Hope you are following the naming standards. Does your WebDynpro component and application start with Z as prefix example(ztest_1)? If not make sure you have Z as prefix.

You can also start with this [Link|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/00545e6d-0679-2910-acab-8073ce9a1659?rid=/webcontent/uuid/fed073e5-0901-0010-4eb4-c9882aac7b11] [original link is broken];

Hope this was helpful.

Thanks Abinav.

My problem is with naming convention only. Component name starting with Z solved my problem.
