Cannot add SAP WebAS

[former_member192811]

Hello Everyone,

I am working on SAP NetWeaver 7.2 SP06 PAT0002 .

I want to add SAP WebAs to deploy my application.

However on clicking the add button i get the following error:

The host *hostname* could not be resolved

[Error: com.sap.sapmc.webservice  Thread[SAPSystemsEventDispatchThread,5,main]]

I can access the portal server from cmd prompt and can also access the CE portal url.

The host file entries look fine.

What could be the possible reason for this.

Kindly help.

Hi,

can you make an attempt using IP address instead of using hostname?

Thank you and Regards,

maybe you should configure the proxy

what verion of NWDS you using? Also double check if you can ping/telnet the server from your local machine.
