SPNego authentication not working for Windows 7

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have configured SPNego on one of our NW CE 7.1 systems. However, the end users, having Windows 7 as OS are not able to use this feature and are reporting problems, like "Page Cannot be displayed" error.

I had a look at the OSS notes 994791 and 1457499. The later has a mechanism for Windows 7. I tried to deploy the sda files and ear files on my NW CE 7.1 system using the option "Hotfixes" in JSPM. However, even after deploying those files, I'm not able to login to the url http://host:port/spnego2/cfg or http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/spnego.cfg.wd/SPNEGO

I even installed a NWDS 7.1 on my local machine and connected it to my NW CE 7.1 system. But, I'm not able to see the "Deployment" perspective in it. My NWDS version is "SAP NetWeaver 7.1 Composition Environment SP12 PAT0000

Build id: 201105061501". Please suggest how to get this perspective activated.

Any suggestions on how to go about fixing this issue will be greatly appreciated.

P.S.: I'm a Basis consultant with limited knowledge on NWDS.

Thanks,

Deoraj.

open your nwds, find "Window" in the menu bar

Window->Open perspective->Other---->Deployment

Hi John,

Thanks for your reply but I can't see the option to reach the "deployment" perspective. Its not available for me.

Btw, I'm using SAP NetWeaver 7.1 Composition Environment SP12 PAT0000 Build id: 201105061501.

Also, I have checked a few SDN posts about using the "undeploy" tool after connecting using telnet, but I can't use that method too as telnet ports are blocked by firewall. We use different method to connect to the OS, if required.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Deoraj.

Dear Deoraj,

Hope you are doing good.

Unfortunately, Apart from the NWDI deployment and telnet option, there are no other deploy methods..

Please have a look at the below for more information:
