Hello Sanjay,

If you trying an RFC connection from ABAP to JAVA engine then you need to created the program you have mentioned as the connection in Visual admin of the JAVA engine.

Provide more details of the connection you are trying

Something helpful related to this

The program in the above error should be registered in the gateway for this connection test to complete successfully. The server program rfcexec is responsible for its registration on the gateway.

To register the program login into the OS level as sudo su - <sid>adm and execute the following command.

rfcexec u2013g<program id> -a<gateway host name> -x<gateway service>

rfcexec is the server program name, the <program id> can be obtained from SM59, it is case sensitive and should match with the entry in SM59. The <gateway host name> and <gateway service> can be obtained from the transaction SMGW. When this command is executed it goes to a hanging loop.

The connection will fail once this command is terminated or the user executing this command logs off

To avoid this, instead of using the above mentioned command an entry should be made in the file saprfc.ini

To do this, execute the following command

sudo su - <sid>adm

rfcexec u2013D<destination name>

<destination name> is the RFC destination name in SM59

So now we are done with registering the server program, but how do we check it is registered, once a server program is registered it is displayed in the Logged on clients in SMGW.

In transaction SMGW choose GOTO-> Logged on clients. There should be an entry for the server program in the screen that is displayed with system type Registered_TP (which indicates that the program is registered)

Hi,

Are you trying to connect abap and portal through RFC then only you need to choose program register id in sm59 of abap and one more thing is you need to use this same program id in JCO rfc provider service of Visual admin tool of portal.

narsi.

Thanks amit for your reply.

This RFC destination with the program name was automatically created during creation of entry for pre-calculation server for BI 7.0

Hi Basis Experts

I am having problems while testing an RFC connection PI_RFC in one of our PI quality system.

Here is the Error log

Logon Connection Error

Error when opening an RFC connection

ERROR: program PI_RFC not registered

LOCATION: SAP-Gateway on host bp1xeuaa202 / sapgw01

DETAIL: TP PI_RFC not registered

Details COMPONENT: SAP-Gateway

COUNTER: 15866

MODULE: gwr3cpic.c

Details RETURN CODE: 679

We tried restarting the JCO-RFC provider service in VA,also tried restarting the Gateway service, tried registering the RFC using below command

rfcexec u2013g PI_RFC -a bp1xeuaa202 -x sapgw01

rfcexec u2013D PI_RFC

the command didnt gave any output also in SMGW tcode we didnt get the entry(PI_RFC) under system type as registered server.

Still we are facing the same issue, can anyone please help us in resolving this issue.

Regards

Syed

Hi,

Have you created jco RFC with same name in VA. Try entering GWhost and GWservice in SM59 ABAP connection.

Hi Sanjay

We have already done with putting gateway hostname and service,still same issue. however we have not maintained the JCO RFC in VA but this is to inform u for all other systems we have not created the particular JCO RFC in VA but still that is working fine.

Please suggest anything else if we can check?

Hi,

I have faced the same issue and this is because of new security parameter set for Gateway server.

Please refer to Note 1480644 - gw/acl_mode versus gw/reg_no_conn_info. You can resolve this issue by setting ABAP Parameter gw/acl_mode = 0 in your BW / BI system or following the instructions mentioned in the note .
