Problem with adding images in Product Catalog (Internet Sales R/3 Edition)

Hello.

I have a problem: Iu2019m trying to set up u2018Internet Salesu2019 to display images in the product catalog. Iu2019m trying to follow the instructions in [help.sap|http:// help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/en/34/438a8ec2f8214a93c34d8dfcf62221/content.htm]

Unfortunately, it seems Iu2019m doing something wrong since I have not managed to make images appear in the catalog. I believe the problem is in the Document Management (DMS) customization, more specifically in the u201CDefine Data Carrieru201D step (trans. DC20). What should I do with the following?

u2022 Define data carrier type u201Cserver, front endu201D

At the moment I have done the following:

o I have defined a new u201CType (data carr.type)u201D ZD and activated the flag u201COnlineu201D

o For u201Cdata carr.typeu201D ZD I have completed the step u201CIdentify frontend computersu201D: The u201CFrontendComputeru201D is Default with u201CNetw. Addressu201D DEFAULT

o I have, also, completed the step u201CDefine servers and files or foldersu201D: a new entry with u201CData Carrieru201D Y3 and u201CTypeu201D ZD has been defined.

u2022 Define mount points / logical drive

At the moment I have done the following:

o I have defined a new entry with u201CData carrieru201D Y3 and u201CTypeu201D ZD.

The images can be accessed using URIs of the form http://sapeshopdev.xxxxxxxx.gr:50000/images/title.gif

All of them will be found under the same images folder. What path should I use and where in DC20? Should I provide the value u201Chttp://sapeshopdev.xxxxxxxx.gr:50000/images/u201D to the u201CPathu201D field in Define data carrier type u201Cserver, front endu201D or should I provide that value to the field u201CPrefix for access pathu201D in the Define mount points / logical drive???

Also, which path should I use in XCM configuration for image server??? The same as in DC20?

Hello,

Would it be possible to let me know what you have set in the transaction DC10, what have you customized that for Document type for example is you are using "SIM" the customizing flag is "Use KPro" set.?

When this is set it means

that any new entries will be created in table DMS_DOC_FILES

Without this flag being set the entries will be in Table DRAW and the

replication of the images should work correctly to the webshop.

Dear Mark,

thanks for your answer. I have copied the standard document type L01 and have set the flag "Use KPro" in the new type. I shouldn't have done that?

As for the path of the images's directory on the web server (http://sapeshopdev.xxxxxxxx.gr:50000/images/), where should I maintain it? In the u201CPathu201D field in Define data carrier type u201Cserver, front endu201D or in the field u201CPrefix for access pathu201D in the Define mount points / logical drive ?

Hello,

You should be able to use L01 but if you have the ""Use KPro" set this will do the folloing.

"L01" the customizing flag "Use KPro" is set. When this is set it means

that any new entries will be created in table DMS_DOC_FILES.

During the replication proces the table that is checked is "DRAW"

Without this flag being set the entries will be in Table DRAW and the

replication report will work correctly as designed and the images should be displayed in the webshop.

For the second question please see note [1417841|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/ 1417841] this should assist you .

Mark
