not able to debug locally

[Former Member]

when trying to run the debugger by pressing F5 in visual studio I get the following error:

Build...

Portal: Server00

Host: ACC1JRYG61

Port: 8050

UserName: ACC1JRYG61\tiberiu.sasu

The operation has timed-out.

Deployment failed. -

Increasing the timeout value for Server00 does not help.

I am using Visual Studio.NET 2003 and the runtime installed on the same machine; hotfix is applied; the verification tool did not report any errors.

Server00 is started in MMC and the Windows service

"SAP NetWeaver Portal Runtime 1.0 Patch 3 for Microsoft .NET Server00" is running. I have no connection to a Portal server and I have not installed any Portal servers on my local machine.

Any idea what is going on?

Hi Kirk,

The port you define in the portal node (in the server explorer) to connect to the EP should be the normal EP port (usually 50000), not the port used by the .NET run-time (8050).

Hope that helps, If not, give me more details.

Ofer

Ofer,

when I change the port for the

ServerExplorer->SAP->Portals->Server00 in Visual Studio from 8050 to 50000 (or to any other value different from 8050 for that matter) I get the following error: "The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server."

Not sure if it helps, but after I close the error window and after the debugger process (ep.exe) ends, I get the following 3 errors in Event Viewer:

Hi,

I said port 50000 as only an example of the port the <b>SAP Enterprise Portal (and J2EE server)</b> works on.

From your error we can see that what fails is the <u>deployment to the portal</u>, which is why you can't debug/run. I assume that if you do a "deploy" (See the SAP menu) you will get the same error.

Make sure :

- That you have a running Enterprise Portal in server ACC1JRYG61.

- That you know what port it is using (50000?)

- That you can access it using the browser on your computer (URL like http://ACC1JRYG61:50000/irj) using the user and password you configured in the portal node in the server explorer

- That you don't have a firewall that is preventing this access (to the port), or that a proxy is configured correctly.

- That this portal is of the right version (depends on PDK patch level you use, see documentation for more details).

- That someone have successfully deployed the 2 SDA's needed to this portal (see installation documentation).

To understand more maybe you can look at the Runtime Environment document in the documentation (Getting started->Overview->Runtime Environment)

Regards,

Ofer

Ofer,

you are correct. If I do a deploy I get the same error.

ACC1JRYG61 is my laptop which does not have a running EP, but it does have the .NET runtime installed.

Do I need a full installation of EP in order to debug iViews locally? Is there another option that allows me to debug locally without having to install EP?

From the Installation guide I was under the impression that a .NET runtime is sufficient (maybe I am wrong as this is not explained very well in the Guide).

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Hi Kirk,

Yes, an EP is a must. See: "3.3. Hardware and Software Requirements" in the installation guide.

Since you are developing iViews that run in an EP, by by the EP, you can't avoid it.

<b>Note:</b> that this doesn't mean you need this EP installation on your laptop, but you do need access to a valid portal which you can configure and deploy to

Regards,

Ofer
