SAP Logon using SAProuter String

nikhil.sath

Hi
I am using SAP Logon 740 and it uses below parameters as to login to an Instance -
Connection Type - Custom Application Server
Application server - <IP address>
Instance Number - 00
SystemID - R7T
SAProuterstring - /H/<some router IP>/H/

In SAPLogin activity I tried passing both above IPs in "Host" field, but it gives the same error - WSAWOULDBLOCK - resource currently unavailable.
But when I double click on the instance it opens the login page.

Any idea?

Thanks
Nikhil

When i google that I can see that error most like means you are connecting to the wrong ip or port. I don't have a lot of experience with sap, i mostly worked with sap cloud installations managed by others, but this page have helped me a few times when trying to figure out how to create the correct connection strings https://support.qualibrate.com/hc/en-us/articles/360010902299-Using-connection-strings-for-SAP-GUI
( but i guess you already know that link ? )

@allan-zimmermann Thanks!! This article helped me to resolve the Connection string issues. Now I am able to connect to SAP with Host: "/H/<routerIP>/H/<systemIP>/S/3200/P/"

@nikhil-sath That sounds fantastic.
Just a few hints, the mouse over ( settings -> Recording overlay ) should be disabled while recording in sap, since it slows down the sap bridge a lot. Also, using "get element" under sap, has a few issues with some tables and is still in beta, but using the get/set property, invoke method should give full access to everything inside sap in any version. You can swap between recording with Get Element vs native SAP GUI Scripting commands under settings -> Recorder plugins -> sap -> "Record Get element" ... You should disable this. ( its disabled by default )
