Shared folder access in NW J2EE

[Former Member]

Hi,

we are facing a problem while running a j2ee appl which requires access to a shared folder. we are unable to access the folder. But when we run from some other servcers like tomcat, we can access. This looks like an issue in the user rights.

We start the NW services under logon id as .\SAPServiceJ2E account. Do we need to run this service as a domain account?. If so how to do this, or is there some other way.

If the shared folder is on the same server as NW then using a local user is fine. Make sure the SAPServiceJ2E user has proper permissions to access the shared folder.

If the shared folder is elsewhere on the domain, then you should run the NW services as a domain user, and make sure that domain user has permission for the shared folder.

To run the service as a domain user, create the service user in the domain's Active Directory (e.g. SAPServiceJ2E). Then make sure that domain user is added to all the groups that the local service user is in on the NW server. Then run services.msc and choose the domain user for the "run as" user for the SAP services. MAKE SURE THE DOMAIN USER'S PASSWORD IS THE SAME AS THE LOCAL SERVICE USER'S PASSWORD.
