How to start:Extended Configuration Management (XCM)

Hi All,

I am new to SAP Java systems. Please help me with one issue.I need to generate session trace for an issue in CRM for SAP.

I am required to generate the logs via:

"1. In the standard configuration the functionality to create session logs using parameter 'appinfo' is deactivated for safety reasons. The functionality to download a created LOG file was also deactivated.You can re-activate the functionality via the XCM administration for the respective application.
Start the XCM admin application and navigate to:
Start->
    General Settings->
        Customer->
            <APPLICATION> -> 
                <APPLICATION>config
For example:
Start -> General Settings -> Customer -> b2b -> b2bconfig

Here you find parameters 'appinfo' and 'logfiledownload'. Set these parameters to 'true' and save the configuration. Then restart the corresponding application.

Reset the parameters to 'false' as soon as you do not need them anymore.
2. Session logging URL
http://$hostname$:$port$/$application_name$/admin/index.jsp
For example: http://localhost/b2b/admin/index.jsp
3. J2EE administrator login
User: Administrator
Password: ('Your password'. Default: 'blank')
4. Choose the 'Logging' link.
a page with two tabs 'Log Configuration' and 'Session Tracing' is displayed.
"

"----as per note :1090753

I navigated from Visual Admin/Configtool but couldn't find how to start XCM administrator application and then where to check for the logs.

I do not have idea of this. Please guide me how to perform this.

Thanks & Regards,

Ashutosh

Hi Ashutosh,

Could you go through the steps given by bharat in the below link.

Here the steps for session trace:

1. logon to the XCM administrator

http://mycompnay.com:50000/b2b/admin/xcm/init.do

2. Go to General Settings->Customer->b2b->b2bconfig.

3. In the right side frame select true as the value of the parameter logfiledownload.

4. open URL http://mycompnay.com:50000/b2b/admin

5. Click on logging - > session tracing

6. you will see a partial URL in the next jsp page inside a text field. complete this URL for eg.

http://mycompnay.com:50000/b2b/b2b/init.do

7. Click start application. This will bring up the logon page in a separate browser window.

8. In the previous window click Start Session Tracing.

This will create two hyperlinks with a long name begining with session appended by the date and session ID.

9. Move to the new window where logon.jsp was started and execute whatever steps necessary in the B2B application till you execute the code segments containing your log entries.

10. Come back to the previous window and click on the hyperlink for the logfile under the caption "download"

This will open the session log file as a zip -> text document and you can search for your log entries there.

Hope this helps you..

Regards,
