System Connection Test : Failing, Any Suggestions plz ?

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I have a WAS 6.40 SP 15, I am trying to create a System to my WAS from the EP.

I am creating the System with the correct parameter but when I do a Test Connection I am getting the following error:

SAP Web AS Connection 
Test Details: 
The test consists of the following steps:
1. 1. Check that the system object defines an SAP system
2. Check if the system can be retrieved
3. Check if a SAP system is defined in the system object
4. Validate the following parameters: WAS protocol; WAS hostname
5. Check HTTP/S connectivity to the defined back-end application
 
 
  Results 
1. The system ID is valid
2. Retrieval of the system was successful
3. The system object represents an SAP system
4. The following parameters are valid: WAS Protocol (http) WAS Host Name (sap-ep:50000) 
5. HTTP/S connection failed

I would really appreciate if anyone cold help me out or tell me why it is failing.

Thanks,

John.

Hi John

when u defined the R3 System in Portal thw WAS property of this system is noramlly used for R3 system WAS ( ABAP WAS)

check ur WAS Entry.

WAS Description --> Description.

WAS Host Name ---> R3host.domain.com:ABAP_WAS_port

WAS Path ---> /sap/bc/bsp/sap

WAS Protocol --> http/https

u can find R3 was port from R3 using tcod. SMICM -> goto -> services

look under service name/port against HTTP

it will 80<instance_number> for oo it's 8000

now when u define the J2EE system under portal than u have to maintained only WAS,user managemant and system alias.

since ther is no connector property for J2EE system so u can't perform connector test for this WAS system.

any query revert back

If you have a proxy, you probably need to configure the proxy properly for the portal's httpservice application.

In fact, the proxy shouldn't be used for the WAS name/address.

See SAP Note 944095: <i>ITS/WAS connection test fails</i>.

Dear All

Even after doing all the above configuration you will receive HTTP/S connection fails error.

This is because the actual WAS service is not started or activated. In order to activate the service. Logon to the R/3 system and issue the transaction SICF and identify or drag down till the service sap/bc/bsp/sap and rightclick on sap and select ACTIVATE SERVICE and select yes to all the components below.

After performing above activity you will be able to test the connection to WAS succesfully.
