Hi ,
Backend connection -> Connection maintained in SAP Logon are not visible in local mode.
I am using SAP Design studio 1.4 32 -bit and SAP GUI 730 32-bit.
Not able to add datasource from SAP BW in local mode.
Path for splogon.ini : C:\Users\<user-Name>\AppData\Roaming\SAP\Common\saplogon.ini
Best Regards,

Hi Avinash,
I had the same situation. Analysis and Design Studio show the same behaviour.
Remove the file "SAPUILandscape.xml" from your "C:\ProgramData\saplogon" and try again.
Cause Analysis and Design studio prefior the XML file. In case there is non, the old logon.ini is used.
I hope this help. For me it was enough to remove only "SAPUILandscape.xml". The "SAPUILandscapeGlobal.xml" did not have any impact on my local connections in the DataSource connection window.

Unfortunately there was an incompatible change in SAPGUI: The version 7.40 does not write any saplogon.ini files anymore - instead there is a new XML format for the connections.
This means that all tools that read SAPLOGON.INI need a new parser for the XML file format. In Design Studio this new parser will come with release 1.5 - by I'm not sure if in SP0 or SP1.

Hi,
I have the same situation. I have the sapgui 7.40 and if I start with a fresh installation when I create a new Logon System the saplogon.ini is not created. I only have the SAPUILandscape.xml and SAPUILandscapeGlobal.xml.
When I try to access with Design Studio no system is shown.
If I use a sapgui migration from 7.30 to 7.40 the old system is shown in the Design Studio but if I create a new one I cannot see it to login with Design Studio.
Is there any way to "force" the sagui 7.40 to write into saplogon.ini? Or how must I do to connect from Design Studio to a new system created with sapgui 7.40?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Jose

Do you have the SAP Gui Logon installed locally?

update...
can you please check if you have some entry in log like: Failed to load systems from saplogon.ini
and, you can try to place following variable in the SapDesignStudio.ini file in your installation folder:
-DaadSaplogoniniPath=c:/temp/sap.ini
it is not final solution, but should help for time beeing.

Hi Karol,
Thank you for response.
Yes this is strange situation , it is working on other PC with same saplogon configuration.
There is no error log for "Failed to load systems from saplogon.ini"
I tried variable in SapDesignStudio.ini file but it did not work.
-DaadSaplogoniniPath=c:/temp/sap.ini
Is this exact variable or I have to edit some part of it ?
Best Regards,
Avinash
Hi Avinash,
The location of the ini file can be also set via an environment variable SAPLOGON_INI_FILE
you can set this via windows control panel, this link has more information.
You would set the value to C:\Users\<user-Name>\AppData\Roaming\SAP\Common\saplogon.ini
This is again only a temporary solution.
