Problem with TREX 7.1 post-installation steps

[former_member185995]

Hello all,

I've installed TREX 7.1 (from medium 51036864 - SAP EHP1 SR1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.0, Search and Classification (TREX 7.10)) for test purposes. I used latest installation guide from: https://service.sap.com/instguides --> Installation and Upgrade Guides --> SAP NetWeaver --> SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) --> Installation --> 3 - Installation - Standalone Engines --> SAP NetWeaver Search and Classification TREX --> Installing and Updating TREX 7.1 Single Host ... which is actually not very latest since the document is from April 2008.

First thing during installation, which was different than in inst.guide, was the folder hierarchy in sapinst's welcome screen. The documentation says completely different structure. I used the most resonable choice :

SAP Installation Master -> SAP NetWeaver 7.0 including Enh.Package 1 Support Release 1 -> Standalone Engines -> Search and Classification (TREX) -> TREX Global File System with first TREX instance.

Pls correct me in my opinion that this choice is enough to get simple REX installation for test purposes. I think I need no other installation of next TREX Instace.

Now I follow the post-installation steps and right in the first step I stop. It is said in the 1.step "Configuring the TREX Web Server" to navigate to TREX Admin tool -> Landscape Connectivity window -> http tab page.

Unfortunatelly there is NO Landscape Connectivity window.

As I studied other conf.steps, some of them don't make a sence as well.

Can you pls send me a hint, what I'm doing wrong ?

Thank you in advance, rwrd.points granted.

Hi,

You will not be able to find the Landscape link directly.

In TREXADMIN.BAT you will find the advanced tab.Click onto that , It will activate System Landscape after that.

Now you can configure your TREX System as per guide.

But if you are still unable to get through please provide me the screen shot of TREXadmin.bat,I will guide you with next steps.

Hi Naveen,

thx for reply.

I was looking for "advanced tab", but there is none. The only choice is n menu Options -> radiobutton with options "Standard mode" and "Advanced mode". So this is probably, what you meant.

So in the "standard mode" I have following tabs in upper part of the window:

Queue : Admin, Content, Landscape

Index : Admin, Landscape

Landscape : Alert, Configuration, Ini; Hosts, Services, Trace, RFC

Preprocessor : Admin

When I activate the advaced mode, the tabs are extended and I get following possibilities:

Queue : Admin, Content, Landscape

Index : Admin, Landscape, Usage, Search, Mining

Cruiser : Admin, Landscape

Landscape : Alert, Configuration, Reorg, Tree, Ini; Hosts, Services, Trace, Perf.Trace, RFC

Preprocessor : Admin, View Docs.

.. and still I'm not able to find the possibility too "Add HttpServer" .. as conf.guide document says.

Do you have any idea, where to find next ?

Thank you in advance.

P.S. just one more note - I executed the runInstallationTest.py script and all is fine. Apparently there are changes in TREXAdmin UI and it is not covered in the guide.

Hi,

In the landscape you should have the tab Connectivity,If that tab is not there then you need to check on tab RFC and there will be the option of providing the details of both HTTP as well as ABAP connection.

If you still face any issue,please let me know.

Hi Naveen,

I had a look into RFC tab-window and there was no choice to configure HTTP connection. I captured the screenshot, so if you want let me know and I'll send it to you.

Thanks for your support.
