Endless wait animation on WD application after upgrade to NW740

Former Member

Hi,

We have recently upgraded from NW 702 to NW740.

A Web dynpro application which was working fine before upgrade, is now showing an endless wait/load animation. It doesn't allow to interact with the application.

We have TimedTrigger UI element on the page. But we are not able to find out if the problem is due to that.

Please help.

Hi,

First of all please update Unified Rendering in the system.

Howto: Unified Rendering Notes - Which one to apply - Web Dynpro ABAP - SCN Wiki

This should solve the issue.

Hi Gabor,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

We had already implemented all the relevant notes as per the link mentioned in your response. Following notes were applied as we have SAP_UI 740 SP 0013.

1. 2185438

2. 2191161

3. 2194113

4. 2194114

5. 2194115

6. 2194116

7. 2207698

8. 2212887

9. 2219435

10. 2219436

Now the report WDG_MAINTAIN_UR_MIMES, displays the urchangelist = 237518 ; Which tells UR is up-to-date and no further notes required.

Meanwhile, we tried to debug the issue further and found that the endless wait animation is only happening in IE10 & IE11 but not in Firefox browser. We also open the application inside SAP UI Theme Designer tool ( in IE only ) and application works fine.

In further debugging using Developer Tools, we found that a javascript file lightspeed.js is throwing error. This error is not thrown in Firefox browser.

IE10

IE11

Please help.

Hi Rohit,

Please empty all browser and server caches according to the last screenshot of http://goo.gl/4XnNf

After that it should work, because this JS file belongs to Unified Rendering.

Hi Gabor,

Thanks for your reply.

We tried to clear browser cache & server cache using SMICM -> Clear cache globally ,  but still we are facing the same issue.

Browser shows error at Line 52 in lightspeed.js file, but we don't see the lightspeed.js file at the path mentioned in the error.

Hi Rohit,

Is the UR consistent in the system?

Hi Gabor,

The UR is consistent as per screenshot from report in my previous reply.

We still face the issue in IE. Is there any update(note) provided to solve lightspeed.js file issue ?

Hi Rohit,

According to the picture I can see that you are using custom theme.

Is that right?

If yes, please check the problem with SAP standard theme.

When the problem does not occur with standard, please regenerate the custom theme.

p.s. the lightspeed.js file cannot be found in MIME repository directly

Hi Gabor,

The problem is occurring with SAP Standard Theme only.


Background:

We were using custom theme before upgrade to NW740 and it stopped working after upgrade. So as per suggestion from SAP, we decided to create a new theme from scratch using SAP's new UI Theme designer.

We removed wdthemeroot application parameter from our application so that it can run in standard theme (SAP_CORBU / SAP_BLUECRYSTAL). We also changed wd_global_setting to use SAP_BLUECRYSTAL as default theme.

But after all this, when we run the application in IE11 or IE10 , the page loads in SAP_BLUECRYSTAL theme but the wait animation runs endlessly .

When we start new theme in UI Theme designer (In IE11) , the same application runs perfectly inside it (to provide preview and original look) . Also the application works perfectly in Firefox browser.

We tried following combinations:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Application + Firefox + SAP Standard Theme          = Works Fine (No wait animation)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Application + IE10 or IE11  + SAP Standard Theme = Endless Wait animation with lightspped.js error

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Application  inside Theme Designer + IE11              = Works Fine

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please help.

Hi Gabor,

We had raised an SAP incident # 801458 for the issue on 23 Sep 2015, but didn't get a solution.

The latest reply on the incident says that it is a consulting issue. However I don't feel the same as the application works fine on a browser(Mozilla) but not on another browser ( IE10 or IE11) after upgrade to SAP NW740 with SAP Standard Theme. The same application works fine in IE11 inside SAP UI Theme Designer.

Please share any notes (if available) to solve issue on IE10 / IE11.


p.s. : The application was working fine on IE11 on NW702 before upgrade to NW740.So i feel that the combination of SAP NW740 + IE10/11 is not working for us.

Thanks.

Best Regards,
