Problem with Launching Performance Analysis Tools

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using Performance Analysis tools. I have two Zip Files 1)pviewer.zip 2)pvpconverter.zip.

I have extracted pviewer.zip and got pviewer.war file.

Now, the problem is how to deploy this war file on J2ee engine. I have tried couple of ways to create EAR from NetWeaver developer studio and also from command prompt using (jar -cvf) but, none of them were successful.

Can any one help me to deploy the Performance tools?

Thanks,

Shivender.

If you are using j2ee 6.20, just rename your original pviewer.zip file to pviewer.ear and redeploy.

Dear Shivender,

in releases higher than NW04 the performance viewer tool is outdated. Intead, Wily Introscope is to be used.

Best regards,

Hi,

Try look at sap note 766598 and in special the attachment of this note.

There you will find the .ear file, installation instructions and documentation...

Hi Rolf,

Can you help me to resolve this.

Hi,

For me it sounds like a corrupted .ear file.

How do you deploy? With SDM or VA?

Are you on J2EE Engine 6.40 SP9 or higher (but not 7.00)?

Hope it helps...

Hi,

I have deployed through SDM.

J2EE Engine Version is: 6.40 SP16

If it is corrupted file, where I can get the working one.

Thanks,

Hi,

Have you tried to deploy the application with Visual Administrator (VA) as described in the OSS note, just to see if it makes any difference:

1. Start SAP J2EE Engine Visual Administrator.

2. Navigate to <server node>/services/deploy.

3. Click "Deploy and start" button and follow the instructions.

The pviewer.ear file from the SAP note is the only one i know of, so it should be the right one.

You could check the size of the file (623KB / 637.649 bytes)

Hope this helps...

Regards

Rolf
