Well, today I’ve been testing some of my apps in EHP5. From an ERP perspective, everything is pretty much the same, with no real changes. Then I got to the Web Dynpro application, and suddenly, nothing would work. I went into SE80, and looked at the Web Dynpro application, and for some reason the url was jacked up. I did a little research, and found a pretty easy fix. Please note, of the following, I only had to the first 2 parameters in the DEFAULT.PFL, but I’m including the rest, just in case this isn’t enough for you application.
Add the following lines to the file C:\usr\sap\NSP\SYS\profile\DEFAULT.PFL
icm/host_name_full = <machine_name>.com
icm/server_port_0 = PROT=HTTP,PORT=8000,TIMEOUT=3600,PROCTIMEOUT=3600
where <machine_name> is the value that’s assigned to existing parameters such as ‘rdisp/mshost’ and ‘SAPDBHOST’.
Add the following line to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
<my_ip_address> <machine_name>.com
where <my_ip_address> can be got from running ipconfig.exe at the command line (or using 10.10.0.10 if you’ve had to install the MS loopback adaptor thingy)
Also, run the report RSICF_SERVICE_ACTIVATION to set up Web Dynpro services (so you don’t need to do it all in SICF), with the following values in ‘Technical Name’:
WEB DYNPRO ABAP
WEB DYNPRO ABAP TEST APPS
WEB DYNPRO ABAP DESIGN TIME
and activate the following services in SICF:
/default_host/sap/public/icf_info
/default_host/sap/bc/wdvd
/default_host/sap/bc/echo
/default_host/sap/bc/error
