Error when connecting to S4HANA system through Eclipse with ADT

[salah_zinet]

Hello Experts,

I installed Eclipse (2020-03) and added ADT on it, I created a project for the older SAP ERP Dev system without any problem, but when creating a project for my S4HANA system it stops on the stage: Retrieving compatibility information from backend system.

After activating Trace on Eclipse and comparing the two connection Logs,

I suspect this error:

[ERROR] Initialization of repository destination adt.tmp_1588827698049 failed: Connect to SAP gateway failed
Connection parameters: TYPE=A DESTINATION=adt.tmp_1588827698049 ASHOST=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX SYSNR=00 PCS=1

Could you give me some help on that ?

Thanks in advance,

ERROR partner XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:3300 not reached

it means there is a network issue with this IP address (you hide) on the port 3300.
Check if you could reach this IP address

- With a simple ping (ping ip_address)

- With a telnet on the port (telnet ip_address port) (the syntax could change depending on the tool you use) (if you have no tool for telnet, try putty for telnet)

Thanks Frederic,

I forget to add that I can connect to this S4HANA system with SAP GUI, I use SAP GUI 760.

it could be an instance number error, the port number is 32xx or 33xx where xx is the port number

in S/4 you have two instance number, on for the database, on for the server

you have to check what is the instance number and check witch port is open.

if you have access to the system, you could check port number listening with the command: netstat -apn

I use the same connection found on SAPGUI, so the same instance number. In addition to that, I think that SAPGUI and ADT use the same ports numbers, isn't-it ?

Thank you frdric.girod

Effectively, this issue was solved by the network team,

My best regards.
