Webdynpro Java Content Transport

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

System landscape we are having is DEV, QAS and PRD systems.

We have done the portal upgrade from 7.3 to 7.3 EHP1 SPS08 only in Development system till now.

In both the portal systems there is no java version change and seems no major changes in these releases. Now we have done some webdynpro java changes in 7.31 upgraded Dev portal, Can we do the transport from 7.31 Dev portal to 7.30 QA portal and 7.30 PRD portal. Is there any dependency we need to check.

Kindly provide your inputs. it will be appreciate.

Thanks,

Regards,

Ramesh.

If the Java version is not changed, then it should be fine with the transport.

However, Safety first. Try to move test components(in one track) and test the behavior before doing the transport of all other code.

java version is one thing

you have to consider the SAP's java change between 7.31 and 7.3

Hi,

I think isn't possible to deploy 7.31 code in 7.3 version because the APIs are changed, if you try to deploy this, you can get errors during deployment or you can deploy this but not working fine.

If you are using NWDI, you can define new version of your software component, one for 7.30 and other for 7.31, and sync manually the changes. If haven't NWDI, you can use two developer studio, one for 7.30 with corresponding API libs, amd another 7.31 with their APIs. If this is your case, you can develop en NWDS for 7.31, compile and deploy to DEV server, and share project code to NWDS for prepared 7.31, compile again and deploy to QAS and PRD systems.

Hope it helps

you can transport the code from 7.31 Dev to 7.30 QA and 7.30 Prod but it will not be a proper way to transport because when you transporting the code from Dev 7.31 to 7.30 QA it will say code is transported successfully but when you check in NWA log no DC is deployed neither the code will be updated from front end.

To deploy you have to remove 7.30 QA from track and then add.

Once you add QA in the track, the updated code will be deployed successfully but this is not a proper way to do.

So, I suggest you should upgrade QA and Prod both in 7.31.

Hope this will solve your problem.

never tried before

you can make a small test

anyway it is not safe to do that.
