'sap.com/tc~wd~dispwda' application is not starting up

[Former Member]

Hello,

We had a hardware problem on our server and needed to restore the server from a backup. The problem is that after the restore all the Web Dynpro applications (SAP ones such as new user admin) and ours does not work.

The error message I receive when trying to run them is:

com.sap.engine.services.deploy.container.ExceptionInfo: Clusterwide exception: Failed to prepare application ''sap.com/tc_wddispwda'' for startup. Reason=

[WD container ] Error - portalapp.xml file not found ! Expected entry PORTAL-INF/portalapp.xml in .par file.

Now, I really don't know a par file could be restored but not it's portalapp.xml inside but what I care about now is bringing it up again. Where can I find this complete application for redeployment to the server? Or in case anyone has other idea I will be happy to hear.

Hi Roy,

Go to visual admin->deply->runtime->webdynpro & check whether ''sap.com/tc_wddispwda is running or not.I think its in red status.Try to start that manually.

Hi Sumit,

of course it is stopped but starting the application won't be successful without the portalapp.xml. I think this archive is corrupted and needs to be redeployed, what I need to know is where can I take it from.

SAP Note 976913 solved the problem, Dynpro needed a synchronization of it's binaries.
