iTime Clock java user exit implementation and deployment

[steve_regan]

I am trying to make a change in iTime Clock java user exit. I imported the jar file into eclipse, and then I implemented the class for the user exit within the jar file. I then replaced the jar file on server and restarted the iTime Clock application. The application does not appear to be running my version of the user exit. How do I deploy java changes in iTime Clock?

I assume you went to the iTime Clock Administration configuration page http://<J2EEHOST>:<J2EEHTTPPORT>/itcadmin/admin/Config.do and specified your user exit class name in the "ExportToExternalImplementationName" setting at the bottom section "Custom Pre-Pay Calculation Configuration".

Check your <J2EE-DIR>/cluster/server0/itc/ folder (example: C:\usr\sap\F02\JC30\j2ee\cluster\server0\itc) to see if the setting was saved in CustomCalcDef.properties. If you don't see the file CustomCalcDef.properties there, then manually create it with an entry like (example shown here):

ExportToExternalImplementationName=com.sap.itc.admin.schedtask.MyExportCalcResultToExternal

If you had to manually create/save this setting in CustomCalcDef.properties, then restart the application itcadmin in order for the setting to take effect.

Josephine,

Thanks for your response...

Your assumption is correct.....I have gone to the Config page and have set the user exit class name in the "ExportToExternalImplementationName" field.

ExportToExternalImplementationName=com.sap.itc.admin.schedtask.ExportCalcResultExit2

I have implemented the ExportCalcResultExit2 class (implements IExportExit) in the com.sap.itc.admin.schedtask package within the sap.com_isitcadmin_javaassembly.jar file. I have replaced the jar file on server at usr\sap\BPD\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\is_itcadminapp\servlet_jsp\itcadmin\root\WEB-INF\lib. I have also tried replacing this jar file within the war file found at usr\sap\BPD\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\is_itcadminapp\servlet_jsp\itcadmin\sap.com_isitcadmin~web.war.

When I trying the export to external system....I get the following error message in the log...

(4000)Printing exception stack trace

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sap.itc.admin.schedtask.ExportCalcResultExit2

The application does not seem to recognize my class that I have attempted to implement. Is there something that I need to do to register this new class?

Hi Steve,

Please check and confirm that the new class file 'com.sap.itc.admin.schedtask.ExportCalcResultExit2' is present in the new jar that you created.

Replacing the jar 'sap.com_isitcadmin_javaassembly.jar' in the WEB-INF\lib shall be sufficient.

I tried the same in my local envt and it worked for me.

Regards,

Ashish....

I have found my problem. I was doing everything correctly...except with my attempts to restart the application, I was clicking on the "Restart Application" button on the <J2EEHOST>:<J2EEHTTPPORT>/itcadmin/admin/Config.do page. I don't know if this button is supposed to work or not but it didn't do anything for me. I had to use the "SAP Netweaver Administrator" application to stop and start the application. After doing this my user exit worked.
