How to run a WebDynpro DC

[ashish_shah]

Hi Guys,

I have created a webDynpro DC project in a track.

Have checked in the activity and activity activation and deployment was successful.

Now how do i run this application?

Which URL to use?

Hi,

After successful activation, the application would have got deployed in the development server.

You can check whether the application is available under the Content Administrator->Web Dynpro->Deployed Content. Select the application, and in the right pane, choose either 'Run' or 'Run as Preview'. When 'Run' is selected, the application will be opened in an external browser window.

The application URL will be similar to the kind,

http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/<xyz>/<xyz>~<DC name>/<Application Name>

Hope this helps.

Hi Srinivasan,

The application URL will be similar to the kind,

http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/<xyz>/<xyz>~<DC name>/<Application Name>

--> can you tell me what this <xyz>/<xyz> --> would it be?

Hi,

It must be the <company name>/<vendor name>, like sap.com/abc

Hi Ashish,

You can run the DC the same way you run a local DC , creating a DC usinh NWDI allows you to work in a team based enviornment plus version control.

(Right Click on the Application and say deploy and run )

Thanks

Hi Guys,

I found the solution to this:

The correct URL of a WebDynpro DC Application would be:

http://<host>:<http port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/<vendor name>/<dc name>/<application name>

Where <vendor name> would be sap.com or your custom vendor name

for <dc name>

consider if your Software Component name is aaa_sc

and your DC name is dc_xyz

then your <dc name> would be aaa_scdc_xyz

<application name> is the name given to the webDynpro application

To run a webDynpro Application, a best idea would be to

1) deploy the webdynpro application ( right click on application and select deploy new archieve and run) on a local or stand alone WAS server

2) check the application in that server

3) if every thing is running fine then check in your activity in DTR

4) if activity is activated and deployed successfully then use the URL of the locally deployed DC application and then replace the host name and port with the host name and port of the DTR server.
