NWBC for HTML 3.6 - No theme for WD4A Applications

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

we are in the process of upgrading to Netweaver 7.4.

It comes with NWBC for HTML version 3.6

My problem is that WD4A applications are rendered without a theme (screenshot attached).

I tried to set the theme in transaction /UI2/NWBC_CFG_CUST as described here: https://help.sap.com/saphelp_uiaddon10/helpdata/en/14/c639e6b3b5418e9e8a42dc617ce1f5/content.htm?fra...

This didn't help.

Anything I can try before opening a ticket?

TIA,

Thomas

Based on the screenshot, it looks like your custom theme is not found. Make sure you are accessing NWBC using the /ui2/nwbc alias instead of /nwbc. Also use Fiddler, HttpFox, HTTPwatch or something similar to see which URL is being used to access the theme.

Hi Samuli,

thanks for your quick reply.

We are not using a custom theme.

I am accessing nwbc using the path /sap/bc/ui2/nwbc

All WD4A look ugly . The http trace shows that a request for a css stylesheet goes wrong (status code 404.) The url of this request is as follows

http://<host>:<port>/sap/public/bc/themes/~client-180/~cache-Y7pN2PDvMHXlThQJiwEYydgGLnY/~legacy//ls...

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Thomas

found a workaround: If I set the parameter THEME to sap_tradeshow_plus  using the name of my cockpit as filter in transaction /UI2/NWBC_CFG_CUST it works.

However only sap_tradeshow_plus is working sap_corbu seems not to be supported for WD4A applications so far.

Corbu works just fine with WDAs, that is what it was designed for.

well, if I set the theme to sap_corbu a message is shown that says "Corbu theme is not supported for this application. Please see SAP Note 1681286".

This happens for example for application ZHRES_INBOX_1_ACNF.

Maybe that is another problem? I checked the thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3380030.

Thanks,

Thomas
