Can not connect to MDM Server

[Former Member]

Hi there,

I have problems connecting to the MDM Server. In my case, the origin is the GDS Console, but I guess it is an mdm4j problem.

When I try to call the GDS Console in the web browser, I get the following "Configuration Error":

Can not connect to MDM Server defined by:  
 MDM server: '<ip address>'   
 Possible reasons:   
 1. MDM server is down, use MDM console to start.   
 2. The server parameter is incorrect, use Visual Admin to configure the parameter (Server -> services -> configuration adapter -> apps -> sap.cpm -> GDS -> appcfg -> propertysheet application)   
 3. MDM server version does not match the required version: '5.5.35.16' 

In the default trace, I get the entry:

"Problem while getting repository '<Repository>' for MDM server '<ip address>'"

The MDM server is started (and reachable from the server hosting the GDS Console) and the repository loaded.

mdm4j and the MDM Server both use version 5.5.15.36

I was also able to connect to the repository with a Java test application.

Does anyone know a good way to perform troubleshooting?

Kind regards,

Dennis

The solution to my problem:

The MDM server may not be password-protected...

According to SAP, there will be an option in GDS 1.0 SP6.
