SR13 config

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to configure SAP help for NW04 Sandbox system. I want to use the simple PlainHtmlHttp and provide help.sap.com as the server for use via internet.

What steps do I need to follow? Do I still need to copy data from the documentation DVD to a local folder and do I need any profile parameters?

I have already gone through the PDF document in the documentato DVD but it asks to Install and copy the files to local disk, but I think there is a shortcut and I can just use the help.sap.com portal. I am sure some one of the gurus might know here.

Thanks

Cyrus

Hi Cyrus.

Did you get this to work?

My config in SR13 is like this 0n the PlainHtmlHttp tab:

Variant: OnlineHelp (This can be whatever you like)

Platform: WN32

Area: IWBHELP (documentation in the input help)

Server name: http://help.sap.com

Path: saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata

Language: EN

Default: checked

This works fine for me.

Thanks Thomas.

I just had to add the WIN32 platform entry to SR13 and now it works. I had all other platforms except this one.

Thanks again

here are my entries for SR13:

GENERATED_BY_XPRA_Windows NT_IWBHELP_1 -> saphelp_nw04\helpdata

GENERATED_BY_XPRA_WN32_98_IWBHELP_1 -> saphelp_nw04\helpdata

GENERATED_BY_XPRA_WN32_S_IWBHELP_1 -> saphelp_nw04\helpdata

GENERATED_BY_XPRA_ITS_IWBHELP_1 -> saphelp_nw04\helpdata

GENERATED_BY_XPRA_WN32_95_IWBHELP_1 -> saphelp_nw04\helpdata

SAPGUI should be ok because it works for other systems which are already configured.

I have not set the eu/iwb* parameters.

Thanks

Hello Cyrus,

I have pointed the help to help.sap.com in this way:

Variant Platform Area Server Names Path Language

standard WN32 IWBHELP help.sap.com saphelp_insu472/helpdata/ EN

And the default column is checked.

Hi Srihari,

Yes, this is exactly what I did and restarted the system.

But when I try to go to SAP Library from any transaction, I get the message " No Documentation Available"

What am I missing here?

Can you pls mention the detail in the path of SR13.

You may need to upgrade/update the SAP FrontEnd GUI.

Hi,

Check the note [501472|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=501472] and [446186|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=446186]

The other possibilities could be:

1. Browser is not starting. In that case check IWB_HTML_HELP_BROWSER_CALL and IWB_PATH_SERVER_FOR_CLASS_GET modules corrections in the market place.

2. Check the profile parameters eu/iwb/help_type, eu/iwb/path* and eu/iwb/server*

Regards,

Srihari

Hi Cyrus,

under PlainHtmlHttp tab you will find

Variant, Platform, Area, Sever name, path, language, default

You need to fill these details as follows: (i'm giving example OS as windows NT)

Variant: GENERATED_BY_XPRA_Windows NT_IWBHELP_1

Platform: Windows NT

Area: IWBHELP

server name: help.sap.com

path: saphelp_nw70/helpdata

language: EN / DE ..... ...... ......... ...........Edited

default: mark this check box (select)

This will help you.

Regards,

Srihari
