Hi Ree,

From you Developer studio,

Go to windows >> preferferance >> SAP Engine

First provide server1 ipadress and deploy the file. Then change the ip address to server2 and deploy.

Hope it reslove your problem

Hi Jawahar,

We can't connect to server2 by the network,so we can't deploy the ear-file to server2 by NWDS.

Hi Achim :

Base of your idea,where can we find web dynpro deploy content and it's directory,

i can't found it through "find function...".

I assume it is "\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\root\origin",but can't found my *.ear file.

ree,

either you take it from your development-computer (go to your workspace directory, then change to the project-folder, there is the .ear file)

or you take it from the deployed development system. then you'll find it at:

\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\<your namespace/applicationname>

or at

\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\root\origin\local\<appname>\... (curiuos, you don't find it there)

anyway, you have to transfer it to the target-system manually (e.g. via filesystem)

ps: maybe, it's no .ear, it could be a .wda as well

ree,

for my understanding, you can use this tools to make <b>one</b> archive out of your two (portal export & web dynpro) so that you only have to eploy one archive.

it's your point of view, what is more effort

ree,

without the NWDI, you have to transport the ear-file of your wd-application manually to the target system and deploy it there again.

this can be done:

a) deploy it from your NWDS to the target system by changing the "SAP J2EE Engine" settings in Preferences

b) copy the .ear file from your NWDS-computer or the development-source system from the file system to the filesystem of the target server and deploy it there locally with SDM
