HTTPS (apache 2.2/tomcat 6) ClassNotFoundException for Applet mode webi

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are just migrating from http to https.

We cannot create/modify any webi report in Java applet mode.

It thrown this error

ClassNotFoundException

com.sap.webi.ui.g.jrp.WebiAppletStartup

This problem is only with the https based URL's. We have enforced https so o one can work with http. PLUS our ping federate security works only on https.

We are looking for help as html mode has very limited options.

Help?

BO 4.1 cluster distributed over multiple servers.
Apace 2.2 front end and tomcat 6 webapp.

The same configurations works for http, but breaks for https.

I think something I need to tell httpd.conf or ssl.conf that will make it work for https.

Can you post any details of your configuration, for example what version of BI Platform you are using, and the relevant lines from your httpd.conf, ssl.conf, and server.xml?

Also check out SAP note 1972383, it is the same error message you are receiving.

We got this resolved by making a change to the ssl.conf file on Apache httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

This is what we did
