OCI catalog not working in NWBC-html

[Former Member]

Hi,

We can't actually return and copy-over any OCI catalogi items via the NWBC-web. I feel this is due to the return-url generated:

Return Url:

 name="orderHeader" ACTION="http://xxx.sap.com:80/sap/sapsrm/inbound_hdlr?TARGET_URL=%3fnwbc_action_url%3d%252fsap%252fbc%252fwebdynpro%252fsapsrm%252fwda_l_fpm_gaf%253bsap-ext-sid%253dt_m1jmfFEV6xm00K8h8OpWt_m1jmfFEl6xm00K8h8OpW%253fsap-ep-tstamp%253d20101109140326%2526sap-wd-tstamp%253d20101109140326%2526sap-ep-version%253d7%26NavigationTarget%3dportal_content%2fnwbc_back%26NavMode%3d3%26UsePost%3dTrue%26SAPSRM_RESUME_ID%3dSAPSRM_OCI" 

Instead of url: http://xxx.sap.com:80/sap/sapsrm I feel the url should be http://xxx.sap.com:80/nwbc/srm . The url "sap/sapsrm" gives a result '404 - doesn't excist'... How can i change this?

All our catalogs worked properly via EP however we haven't been able to transfer any item from any catalog (SRM-MDM nor punch-out) via the NWBC. The URL just hangs there and gives a white/blank screen.

Any clues or inputs are very welcome.

Kind regards,

Tim

Hi,

What is the "returntarget" parameter value in the catalog call structure? If it is "_parent", please test with "_top".

Hi Masa,

I tested both already and it doesn't make any difference. My issue is most probably related to shared_memory as i've read some SAP notes. I've been able to find a workaround for our issue but i feel it isn't a complete solution for our issue.

We're running a multi client environment and as it seems shared memory is enabled. Shared memory works properly within the EP however in the NWBC it doesn't. After enabling the paramaters for bypass inbound and bypass outbound handler the catalogs started working from within the NWBC aswell. However these paramaters aren't recommended if there isn't any need by SAP?

If you have any clue on shared_memory and our issue then your inputs are very much appreciated however I feel this issue will most likely be resolved via SP's / patches as the use of the NWBC for SRM is relatively new.

Kind regards,

Tim
