Upgrade NW04 Portal SP24 to SP25

[Former Member]

Hi all,

As per the PAM for NW 2004, to support IE8 and Firefox 3.5

browsers ,min requirement is NW04 SP25.

At present we have NW04 SP24 Portal and following components

SAP_MSS-->100 SP20

SAP_ESS-->100 sp20

BP_ERP4ESS-->60.2 SPnull

BP_ERP4MSS-->60.1 SP1

SAPDEVINFF-->6.40 SP24

SAP_DEVINF-->6.40 SP24

Here we have following concerns about the upgrade

1.Is this SP25 upgrade from SP24 will support the IE8 and Firefox 3.5

without any issues for webdynpro application running as of now?

2.is it required to upgrade ESS and MSS and anything on ERP side along

with Portal upgrade to SP25

3.After upgrade NWDI to SP25, all the present tracks with custom

components will work as it is?

Could you please provide any supporting documents and notes related

above questions

Thanks

Ali

For this you can refer SAP note 1098009, 1296463 and 960549.

Yes, you should upgrade ESS/MSS to keep it in sync with NW SP level. You can check below link for SP level of ESS/MSS with NW patch level and backend system patch level:

It should work as such there is no well known issue with existing track after upgrade.
