url generation for saml2 tx

[benoit-schmid]

Hello,

I have installed a NW 7.02 ABAP system.

When I run tx saml2, firefox open an url that generate the following error:

---

The following error occurred in system NPL : Die URL enthält keine vollständige Domainangabe (nplhost statt nplhost.<domain>.<ext>). 

---

If I replace the url, in firefox as a fqdn it works fine.

What is the best way to tell Sap how to correctly generate its url?

In the past, I have manually configured HTTPURLLOC table.

But would like to know all the possibilities to aplly the cleanest one.

Hi Benoit,

Is parameter icm/host_name_full maintained with the full host+fqdn?

Hello Juan,

It has solve my problem.

I have another question.

If you icm is behind an apache web proxy,

is it a good idea to set this parameter to the fqdn of the proxy?

What are the other/cleaner options?

Not sure if I understood what you meant but no, Web proxy should just pass on the requests to icm host+fqdn.

Just to be sure that you understand:

If we are forced to go through a web proxy, the R3 system must generate

a url that contains the fqdn of the proxy and not the url of the WAS.

I this is not the case the web browser would try connect directly to the was.

Is it clearer?
