Where did you install? webapps?

Also did you adjust the memory settings. You need to change the memory settings to 512 M

Hi Arun,

My current server runs both i.e bo xi3.1 and also the tomcat.

I have deployed the warfile under webapps. I have not made much changes to the memory part.

If required how do i change it to 512M as you have mentioned?

Kindly let me know the needful.

Regards,

Raj.

I assume you are using Windows, then

add the next two lines to

<tomcat install dir>\bin\catalina.bat:

rem -

Change memory settings -

set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Xmx512M

Hope this helps.

Sorry it should be

rem -

Change memory settings -

Hi Arun,

I am now able to locate catalina.bat file on my server, in my bin folder. Should i exactly copy paste these two line at the bottom of the document bat file.

Could you plese helpme with this?

You have to write like below.

dash is the dash on keyboard. I am not able to display that on this text field.

rem dash dash dah Change memory settings dash dash dash dash dash......

then write the other two lines i gave you in the previous mail

When you download the catalog browser, you get an installation doc, which you can refer too.

You can write anywhere in catalina file.

No preference.

Arun

Hi Arun,

I tried to increase the memory but stiill teh same output.

Is this because I am using the same server for both Bo and tomcat or the server requires internet connections?

The server which i am running these does not have Internet is this causing problems.?

Kindly advise.

Regards,

Raj.

You can use same server for BO and Mobile. Though not recommended by SAP, it will work fine. Internet is required, because you are using a browser.

A couple of things like - Have you started VAS and VMS is it running? Did you check in configuration manager and is Mobile server and tomcat running? Did you restart tomcat after catalog installation? Also how did configured the port? Did you mentioned external port and host name in VMS config file?Did you try accessing from iphone? If you try accessing from PC, then you would not get catalog browser opened completely.

All these matters, when you are configuring a mobile server application. I configured and my iphone is working now. I suggest you to check all the above one by one and give it a try. Let me know if you need any help.

Arun

Hi Arun,

In my case i am accessing the BO server Via remote connection which does not have internet.

If i try to set up the Catalog browser part on my original server(which has internet) i.e deploying the catalog browser war file and try to connect it to the Bo server will it work?

The other details you have mentioned are running fine but i havent configured my VMs for external port, it is now just configured for use with simulator.

Could you please guide ?

Regards,

Raj.

Hi Arun,

Below are my VMS and Vas Server details:

VERSION = 6.0

[server]

SERVER_ID=VMS_SERVER

[comm]

BINDTO_PORT=11711

MANAGEMENT_PORT=11712

[comm $ external]

ENABLED=default mds

[comm $ external $ default]

EXTERNAL_HOSTNAME=My_Mobile_Server_External_Name

EXTERNAL_PORT=My_Server_Port

CLIENT_TYPE=any

CLIENT_HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0

[comm $ external $ mds]

CLIENT_TYPE=mds

EXTERNAL_HOSTNAME=My_Mobile_Server_External_Name

common across all auth servers

INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILe = config/cluster.config

VAS Server

VERSION = 6.0

[server]

SERVER_ID=AUTH_SERVER

[comm]

BINDTO_PORT = 11011

MANAGEMENT_PORT = 11012

[comm $ external]

ENABLED=default mds

[comm $ external $ default]

EXTERNAL_HOSTNAME=My_Mobile_Server_External_Name

EXTERNAL_PORT=My_Server_Port

CLIENT_TYPE=any

CLIENT_HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0

[comm $ external $ mds]

EXTERNAL_HOSTNAME=My_Mobile_Server_External_Name

common across all auth servers

INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILe = config/cluster.config

[comm]

[comm $ mds]

HOST_PORT=corporate-bes:8080

Any changes I ned to make.?

Regards,

Raj

Hi Raj,

What is your external port? Try using IP address in the external host name.

Change external port to BINDTO PORT no.

Arun

Hi Raj,

Are you using firewall or proxy server?

Arun

HI Arun,

Apologies for my Late response.

The remote server which I am accessing uses proxy but I cannot run internet on it.

The firewall is also disabled.

Would Catalog browser work for Bi reports too?

Kindly suggest.

Raj.
