SAP Theme not reflecting in NWBC HTML

[Former Member]

Hi,

I copied standard theme and used the theme in WDA, but the theme doesnt seem to reflect. I have published the theme in theme designer.

any idea how to make the theme reflect?

Thanks in advance,

Have you configured the theme in table NWBC_CFG? If you are using UI2, use transaction /UI2/NWBC_CFG_CUST.

[Former Member]

Yes I  have tried that, have put the theme in NWBC_CFG table, but that did not work out.

I have also tried passing the theme in the URL parameter, but what happens is it defaults to the standard theme.

Am I missing something here.

And thanks for your response.

There are some known bugs in previous versions of UI Theme Designer and also SAP_BASIS. Please share the exact versions (incl. SP level) of your SAP_BASIS and UI2 components.

SP04 of the UI Add-On is old, consider updating to SP07.

[Former Member]

If updating is not an option, make sure SAP note 1839261 is installed in your system. It might explain the problem you are seeing.

[Former Member]

Thanks the note had the problem described. but did not solve the problem

Apart from updating to a newer SP of UI Add-On, you could try to debug the problem. Set a break point in method IF_NWBC_RUNTIME~GET_USER_INFO of ABAP class CL_NWBC_RUNTIME35. The theme is either set to the value in table NWBC_CFG or the URL parameter sap-theme. Maybe you have incorrectly maintained the name of your theme? If my memory serves me correctly in earlier releases the theme name was case sensitive.

Hi Samuli,

I really appreciate your steadfastness in helping me out, I am still having issue.

I can see the preview correctly. but when I launch from SE80 and pass it as url parameters nothings comes out.

Can you see that I am passing the published theme as URL parameter

what is going wrong?

The short form of sap-theme works only if SAP note 1957578 is installed and in your case it isn't. Use the form sap-theme=<theme ID>@<theme root> where <theme root> is http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/public/bc/themes.

[Former Member]

WHen I copy paste the link below by incorporating my host name and port, it gives a forbidden 403 error, is that the right behaviour?

http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/public/bc/themes.

thanks for the information on the note, I did implement it but nothing reflected on the screen still back to the old standard theme .

Thanks,

Raghav

It isn't sufficient to just implement the note, SP06 or higher of the UI Add-On is required as well. The 403 error is probably because you haven't activated the required ICF service(s).

[Former Member]

Any update to this? I'm having the same problem.

However, some months ago this worked correctly for me with sap-theme=<theme ID>@<theme root>, but not any longer. SAP note 1839261 is obsolete for our system, and 1957578 cannot be installed.

Any ideas?

Hi Peter,

   I have tried everything under the sun and it does not work. I think SAP has no clue that it does not work in certain SP levels or so. we might need to raise a call with them.

if you find a solution to this issue let me know. I shall try to contact SAP.

Regards, Raghav

The problem got solved after applying Support pack.

@Samuli - Now I am having a new problem, when I try to rebuild the theme it says " Uncaught Loading Theme "sap_corbu" failed. No Configuration found. previously this problem was not there.

And thanks Samuli for all the previous inputs you have given.

regards,
