Tips

1. While setting up SMP server settings in Preferences, If i pass URL as https://smpserverIPAddress:8083 (even SMP server complete host name) it gives an error saying "Error during processing request on Operations server".

Resolution:

Seems network proxy issue. Make sure to change proxy settings under Windows>Preferences>Network Connections How to bypass proxy settings in SMP workspace for connecting any public Web Service within corporate...

2.. If a project name is like "ICRA_V1.1" then you can not deploy it to SMP server (SP03 PL02). As it says "

Special Characters are not allowed in the Name". But if i replace 1.1 as 11, it works.

Note: This issue has been resolved in latest release of SMP 3.0 SP04 PL01
