UME Data source options not available (Java + ABAP)

[Former Member]

Hi all

As an upgrade the client is about to do Portal EP 7.0 and MI 7.0 togather. Since MI requires both ABAP and Java, the UME data source is by default directed to ABAP. Since the user credentials for existing EP6.0 is up and running using the LDAP Active Directory, we wanted to proceed the same way for EP7.0 and MI 7.0 in the up grade. We face the following problem

- The UME data source is by default pointing the ABAP, there is no choice given to us to change the data source to LDAP.

Is there any way we can make the UME source to point to Java and if so how?

Can the Abap UME connect to LDAP active directory for user authentication and if so, how?

Thanks

Hi,

I suppose the EP has been installed along with your MI abap+java installation. In that case, portal takes the default abap datasource of MI.

If you want to have your EP to choose the java ume source, you have to install portal seperately as a stand alone AS java system with EP and EP Core.
