testing ABAP Web dynpro: Error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have NW04s Installed and trying to execute a SAP supplied ABAP web dynpro application DEMO_SIMPLE_MAIN. Please see the following error and let us know which service it's talking about? I am familiar with SICF. However in AS7.0( New name for WEB AS ) The transaction is little different.

Thanks

Arunava

However we are getting the following service error

Service cannot be reached

What has happened?

URL http://server.domain.name.com:8001/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/demo_simple_main call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available.

Note

The termination occurred in system XXX with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden.

The selected virtual host was 0 .

What can I do?

Please select a valid URL.

If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.

ErrorCode:ICF-NF-http-c:000-u:SAPSYS-l:E-i:NAME999_XXX_01-v:0-s:403-r:Forbidden

HTTP 403 - Forbidden

Hi,

this was actually some services which needed to be started through SICF. Once I have started the service sap/bc/public ETC.. and the web dynpro started working. Most of the SAP delivered demo apps are working

However for some ABAP web dynpro ( for some application XRPM ) I get some peculiar error. Please see below and if you could think of anything out of these.

I have already checked and found the both HTTP and SMTP services are working fine.

[[

The following error text was processed in the system PXA : Syntax error in program /1BCWDY/56ZRPAZLU25M8S1BKV2T==CP .

The error occurred on the application server fmsap994_PXA_00 and in the work process 0 .

The termination type was: RABAX_STATE

The ABAP call stack was:

Method: CONSTRUCTOR of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_COMPONENT=======CP

Method: CONSTRUCTOR of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_APPLICATION=====CP

Method: CREATE_APPLICATION of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_APPLICATION=====CP

Method: EXECUTE of program CL_WDR_MAIN_TASK==============CP

Module: %_HTTP_START of program SAPMHTTP

Hi Arunava,

Does the problem persist after reactivating the associated component? If yes, can you tell me the names of those applications?

Kind regards,

Thomas

Even I got similar error - "The termination occurred in system XXX with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden"

We need to Activate the services as described in SAP Note 517484.

Note 517484 - Inactive services in the Internet Communication Framework

Here is the path -->Transaction - SICF --> /default_host/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/

I hope this will help.

Thanks,

Krishna

When i select the path -->Transaction - SICF --> /default_host/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/

Please suggest.
