HCP – Moving an Eclipse Application to the Cloud

Home / Blog / HCP – Moving an Eclipse Application to the Cloud

Well, I knew that things could only be easy for a short amount of time :).  As soon as I attempted to move my eclipse application to the cloud, I was instantly met with challenges.  let me walk you through some of my attempts to make this work and the issues I encountered.

  1. I attempted to copy the existing application, then just overwrite the files.  No luck.  I ran into errors every time it attempted to display the project output.  It was related to not being able to read my services.
  2. I went into eclipse, and set up the hana server using: https://help.hana.ondemand.com/help/frameset.htm?60ab35d9edde43a1b38cf48174a3dca2.html  This ended up with the same results, but at least got me closer.
    1. Like everything, even this took a while to get the setting correct (mostly because my version of Java was too new)
    2. Once it uploaded, I could at least try it in chrome to see the errors.  I thought it had to do with my proxy/simple proxy.  So I did multiple changes, and kept uploading and trying again.  some of errors included
      1. Mixed Content.  I had HTTP and HTTPS (because my services are NOT HTTPS).
      2. Wouldn’t connect to the service, generic 401 http error.
      3. Invalid proxy
      4. and on and on…
  3. After some additional reading, I’m going to attempt using the cloud connector.  Stay tuned to the next round of trial and error 🙂
