Problems when adding BAPIs to a C# Project

[Former Member]

Hello everybody,

I have a problem when I try to drag and drop a bapi from the server explorer to the sap proxy on my project.

I'm getting this error message:

"the system cannot find the file specified"

and behind this window there's another window that has on it's caption : "retrieving data", "loading data. this may take some time", but when the status bar arrives to the end, it doesn't do anything...

the strange thing is that I can see the whole list of BAPI available for my project on the server explorer, but I can't add them to my project.

we have 3 sap servers (development, staging and production), my BAPI can be found on all of three servers, but I can't add the BAPI from any of the servers.

do you have any idea of why is this happening ?

Thank you all

Thank you both guys.

I solved the problem.

My problem was with Java Runtime as you said Reiner.

Thank you so much for your help.

This sounds as if the Java virtual machine can not be found (.NET Connector uses a Java program to read the metadata of a BAPI). Please check the registry at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment

Then take the value of "CurrentVerion" as name of SubKey and look in the value of "JavaHome". This should point to a Java Runtime Environment (JRE). It needs to contain a "BIN" folder with "Java.exe" in it.

Hi Adami,

I guess you should include corect path while connecting to the bapi like /SOMO/GET_TIMEZONE. Hope it will solve your problem

Sorry, I forgot to tell you I'm using SAP .NET CONNECTOR version 2.0 to communicate with SAp from my C#.NET app.
