MII Workbench (12.1) Returning 'NULL'

[Former Member]

Dear SAP Mentors,

I'm using 12.1 version.

While creating new transaction or a new project MII Work bench is giving a 'NULL' error - I've assigned all necessary roles including Super- Admin in UME.

Can anyone help us out on it ?

Hi All

This step fixed issue for me:

1)      Uninstalled all existing Jre versions

2)      Installed Jre 1.6.0_25

3)      Added below 2 lines at C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\lib\security\java.policy

permission com.sun.deploy.security.SecureCookiePermission "incas1109.ind.cldsvc.accenture.com:50000-", "listen,accept,connect,resolve";

permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.sun.security.action";

Thanks

Regards

Is XMII_Workbench_Content action is assigned in UME?

This can be because of java version also.

what java version you using?

Just try with java version 6 and update 45 , and if your OS is 32 bit try with version 5 and update 6.

Also you can try to restart all the services related to MII and SAP instances in SAP MMC(Management console).

Hi Ankit,

Is it the problem only with transactions or any other MII object too? like Queries and Display templates?

Adding to what Rutika has said above, if you are logging into MII through VPN, make sure that the connection(VPN) is up and running.

I get this error, when my VPN has timed out or has disconnected. MII's workbench would still be open, but when I try to create/load any object the "NULL" error pops up.

Hey Tufale,

thank you for reply.

Yes - The VPN is connected. As I am able to do everything except Work bench.

Hi Ankit,

This might be because of invalid workbench session. You can try one of the following:

1. Relogin to MII and reopen the workbench if the Workbench session has timed out.
2. Also, you can try to clear the Java cache before opening the workbench.
3. If none of these helps, you can enable the 'Show Console' for your workbench and see the error log in the console. This will help you find the exact cause for the error. To enable the console,

          Go to Java control panel, advanced tab, select 'Show Console' radio button.

Hope that helps,

Hey Rutika,

Thanks for your reply.

I'd tried step 1 & 2.

Also, the Java console is showing following error :

1.  On creation of new project

ERROR - null

Hi,

Try doing a 'Refresh' on root node on Workbench.

Right click on workbench's root node (this will be the namespace of your host) and hit 'Refresh'.

Then try creating a new project.
