Changing application Name

[Former Member]

Hi..

I need to change the name of an application. For this I am doing the following steps:

Under the src->packages folder... there is a file application.wdapplication. I am changing this file name to newapplication.wdapplication.

Then I am importing this project into NWDS.

The changed application name is being reflected properly in the imported project. But when I am trying to deploy the application... the deployment is getting aborted.

I am getting the following error :

Caught exception during application deployment from SAP J2EE Engine's deploy service:java.rmi.RemoteException: Cannot deploy application na.ko.com/dc_paymentreport.. Reason: Clusterwide exception: Failed to deploy application na.ko.com/dc_paymentreport. Check causing exception for details (trace file). Hint: Are all referenced components deployed and available on the engine?; nested exception is: com.sap.engine.services.deploy.container.DeploymentException: Clusterwide exception: Failed to deploy application na.ko.com/dc_paymentreport. Check causing exception for details (trace file). Hint: Are all referenced components deployed and available on the engine? (message ID: com.sap.sdm.serverext.servertype.inqmy.extern.EngineApplOnlineDeployerImpl.performAction(DeploymentActionTypes).REMEXC)

Please provide your valuable suggestions...

Thanks and Regards,

HI,

Why don't you delete the existing application and recreate the one with the desired name. It's only matter of a minute to create a new application specifying the window and the interface view.

Open SDM

\usr\<SID>\JC<inst_num>\SDM\program\RemoteGUI.bat

Go to undeployment, select your project for undeployment. and undeploy the selected one.

Now, you can deploy name changed application.

Hi Nikhil,

The problem, I wont be able to undeploy the existing application. Is there any way to achieve the requirement without undeploying the existing project application ????

Hi,

Create a new application which points to the same interface and window.

Hi,

After deleting the old application and recreating the new application, delete the gen_wdp folder in your navigatore view and rebuild your project.

Now try to redeploy your project.

Hi Sayan,

The error says that there are some referenced DCs to your DCs. If there are referenced DCs available then deploy them first before deploying your DC.

Hi,

Why dont you revert back the changes that you have made. I mean to say rename back the .wdapplication file to the original name. Then create a new application with the new name and then delete the previous one.

Just renaming the file to change the application name does not help. The same is referenced at lot of other places to.

The way i used to do the same is by deleting the existing one and creating a new application with the new name. This does not take much time and effort.

thanks & regards,

Hi,

please try this one :

Right Click on the Application >refactor>rename .

but i am not sure whether this option is available with the NWDS.

and try to rebuild the project and check whether the application has the required component .

Otheerwise create a new Application and use the existing component .

Finally delete the Old Application.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Fistae,

I do not have the renaming/refactoring option as i am using NWDS 7.0.10.

I also tried the second method suggested by you, ie "create a new Application and use the existing component .Finally delete the Old Application."

But this time also deployment is getting aborted... The error coming is:

Aborted: development component 'dc_paymentreport'/'na.ko.com'/'local'/'20080505185814'/'0':Caught exception during application deployment from SAP J2EE Engine's deploy service:java.rmi.RemoteException: Cannot deploy application na.ko.com/dc_paymentreport..
