Dealing with Popup messages in webdynpro in ECC 6.0

[Former Member]

THe backend R/3 has lots of custom popup box ( in user exits ) requesting the user to make a decision. This popup alerts ends up in dumping java error while executing transactions in Portal webdynpro transactions ( create expense report )

Any idea how this should be handled ?

Hi,

In order to determine the cause you could catch the error and log the error message.

e.g.

try {
   erroneous popup statement
} catch (Exception e) {
{   
//   log e.getMessage() here
//   or let MessageManager print e.getmessage() 
}

Thanks RK. But we are wondering if this is something that can be dealt with it in the backend because of the earlier release. We donot have Java expertise, and wondering if SAP has any solution (like BADI's etc.,) dealing with it on the ABAP side.

Hi,

The maintenance people should be able to read the error logs on the server (or trace logs). That should disclose the cause.

Since the exception is not caught in the code, a

"printStackTrace()"

will be written to standard output and will appear in the logs.

Good Luck
