Hi,

nw2004s has come with new features for Webdynpro etc. But for XI, it is similar like SP16. In nw2004S, XI is called as PI (Process Integration)

<i>import any Software comp for any senario or any BPM method.</i>

>>You can import any Software Component to the Repository and work on it. But this is created based on your Business requirement etc. It should be more logical name when you create and work on it.

<i>Next i am using SP 9 .Should i make it sp 14 or higher.give me the link. i have userid and password for service.sap.com.</i>

>>>Yes, it is better to have SP14. Because lots of very good features are available in SP14 and onwards.

Hi moorthy,

Thanks for ur reply.In transaction sm59 i was give path prefix as /dir/CacheRefresh and logon/security i am not able to give basic Authentication if i click this it shows SSL client PSE does not exit. it takes SAP std and finally i clicked testconnection the output is http/1.1 500 internal server error . what shall i proceed for next step.

Thanks

[moorthy]

500 Internal server error is successful for this. SO there is no problem with cache part here.

But you need to check SLD cache now.

Go to Integrtaion Builder->Administartion->Cache Overview and refresh all the caches for Repository/Directory/RuntimeWorkbench.

Also have a look into this SAP note - 764176

and also XI readiness check SAP note - 884865

HI,

<i>SXI_CACHE transaction.</i>

>>>Go to SM59->INTEGRATION_DIRECTORY_HMI (Http type) and test the connection. Also make sure that, Path Prefix <i>/dir/CacheRefresh</i> and Service no 5xxxx.

<i>What is the use of SWC?.</i>

<i>2)All tutorial asked me create data type.If i am going to add some values in R/3 table wheather i need to create datas what are the values in R/3.What is the use of it?</i>

>>>Data Type is a unit of data or basic unit of messages in XI. So if you want to send any data you need to have messages. If it is not standard definition like (RFC/Idoc) then you need to create the structures.
