ABAP Webdynpro Development - Script Error when Accessing Visual Elements

[Former Member]

I am encountering a strange error at my client . I can't use the Abap Webdynpro visual elements to build views .

To reproduce the error :

- T-code SE80

- Open up any ABAP webdynpro component .

- Open up one of the view and go on Tab Layout .

Normal Screen : You would see many WYSIWYG items ( buttons, radiobutton , text elements etcu2026. ) at the left side u2026 these elements are used to build the view .

Here : No elements displayed and when we click on that area we get an error .

Instead of the elements to get displayed .. lines are displayed and when you try to open up ( click ) the lines , an internet explorer script error stating the following occurs ( although the abap wendynpro is edited in SAP Gui ) :

An Error has occured in the script on this page .

Line : 1

Char : 25

Error : Object Required

Code: 0

Thanks and Best Regards !

Hi,

There are few things i want to ask you.

have this ever worked in this client place ? or

are you setting this up first time.

If it is first time then i advice you activate services required for running webdynpro.

see this note if your browsers have any limitations specified in this note

Note 1098009 - Limitations for Web Dynpro ABAP.

Hi,

Then i would suggest to raise a OSS ticket with SAP.

and then log out from the SAPGUI, and again log in.

Hi All !

Just to give you a heads up on the way we solved it here !

Indeed SAP has a domain : WDY_MD_UI_ELEMENT_CATEGORY used for the ui element which is supposed to contain some values by default .

To solve the issue you need to edit SAP domain ; which requires an access key (because it s an SAP object) and you will add the following under value ranges :

00 none

01 text

02 action

03 selection

04 complex

05 layout

06 graphic

07 integration

08 toolbar

09 menu

and Voila !!!!

Hope this will help !

Regards !

Interesting as we have similiar issue here. I created a note with SAP since early Dec, and it's yet to be resolved. If you keep clicking 'No ' on a bunch of pop-up error message, you'll be able to continue. However, it's really annoying.

SAP suggested to delete duplicate MIME files, delete server cache and none seem to fix the problem . I'm still working with SAP on this issue. Will let you know if/when our will ever be fixed.

Thanks for the followup

[ted_dinh]

It's finally working for us. Please delete out all duplicate MIME files under SAP - BC - WebDynpro - SAP - Public - ViewDesigner (keep the newest one, i.e. one with latest date). Once done, ask your BASIS team to delete server cache from the system.

Hi,

we are getting the some what related errors in SE80 -> Web Dynpro Layout

Recently, we have upgraded our ERP system (SAP ECC 6.0 SPS17) with EHP4 SPS8. SAP_BASIS and SAP_ABA patch level same on 701_0008.

FQDN is mantianed at icm/host_name_full parameter in system as well as in /etc/hosts file with associated system IP address.

As suggested by Ted Dinh, we do not find any duplicate MIME files in our MIME Repository (SE80) and we cleared/invalidated ICM cache many times in problem analysis.

As suggested by Thierno Diarra , in our affected system domain WDY_MD_UI_ELEMENT_CATEGORY is well maintained in value ranges.

We have raised SAP OSS Message for the same, they told us to check dns server connectivity/settings with the affected system. we did the suggested DNS settings in affected system. But still the same error message is occuring. They have suggested same sap notes like #979039 and #1009930 & #1483210 , but all the corrections/suggections/SICF service status as mentioned, are found OK in our system.

Please check if you have ''controls_ie5.js' MIME file in your system.. Aside from duplicate MIME files, we somehow also miss this file in our Dev system. This also causes the error to pop-up.

[former_member524429]

Hi,

In the affected system , file controls_ie5.js exists and it is located at SAP -> BC -> WebDynpro -> SAP -> PUBLIC -> BC -> ViewDesigner.
