Hi Amerjit,
I have already done the steps which the link you have provided.
For interactive forms we need credentials which I have got from SAP and need to how to setup credentials in Solution Manager 7.1 SP12(ABAP + JAVA) system.
In solman I need the steps for credentials setups and I have already searched where visual admin blogs found many but from Solman 7.1 SP12 no more visual admin, we have NWA and I need the steps for this.
I have already completed below:
II Web Dynpro for ABAP
1. Test program FP_TEST_00 (Completed)
2. Test program FP_PDF_TEST_00, RFC connection to ADS (Completed)
3. Test user and password(Completed)
4. Test destination service(Completed)
5. Interactive forms: Test program FP_TEST_IA_01 (credential test) Need help on this
6. Generated PDF with additional information(working for other than interactive forms)
7. Activating ADS trace on AS Java
III Web Dynpro for Java
1. Test user and password (Completed)
2. Check the Web service destination ConfigPort_Document. (Completed)
3. Check whether the credential is installed and configured - Need help on this
4. Generated PDF with additional information (working for other than interactive forms)
5. Activating ADS trace on AS Java
Please help from your end , if you have any steps specific to Solution Manager 7.1 SP12(ABAP + Java) (On how to setup credentials) and we do not have any system NW 7.3 and above.
Regards,
karthik.
Hi Karthik,
Thank you for a quite complete reply of what you have done. It would have been good to have had that in your initial post.
I think this is where your confusion is coming in. SM71 in *not* a NW71. SM71 (SP12/13) is based on NW702 (EHP2) and the VA does still exist there. I'm staring at my VA in SM71 SP13 as I write.
If you follow the links that show how to install reader credentials with VA you should be fine.

Hi Karthik,
Amerjit has linked the correct documentation for what you're trying to achieve, but I have to ask, why are you doing this on your SolMan system? Yes, I understand it's a dual-stack and thus has an AS Java associated with it, but if you are trying to setup ADS interactive forms scenarios then you would be better off using a standalone AS Java, or at least one that is associated with productive business activity (such as an Enterprise Portal, for instance), and not your SolMan system.
In our landscape, even though our ADS usage is fairly light, we found it more robust and simpler to dedicate an AS Java for this purpose. This also has the advantage that you can use the latest release of NetWeaver (i.e., NW 7.4 SR2), which is an advantage for ADS in that it is significantly simpler to configure with the NWA than in the old VA (I've done both -- give me NWA for this, every time). ADS on NW 7.4 is backwards compatible with connected systems that may still be on NW 7.0, so that is not a concern (i.e., if your ECC system is 6.00 or 6.04, etc).
Cheers,
Matt
Hi Amerjit,
Thanks for the information.
I have tried to start VA in solman system and unable to open as we have solman on Suse Linux 11.03.
Rest of the steps in solman I have used NWA and completed.
You have any steps to startup VA from Suse Linux 11.03 or is there any other alternative we have on this.
Regards,
karthik.
Hi Karthik,
Could you expand on what the problem is ?
VA needs X so you have to run a Xserver on your PC.
Are you connecting with your own user and then doing a 'sudo' to sidadm ?
A nice explanation of your problem with VA (just like you did before with the steps you had executed for ADS setup) would be just perfect.
Kind Regards,
Amerjit
Hi Matt,
I have installed AS JAVA system for ADS configuration, when we applied credentials which SAP share then getting below error:
Could not retrieve the expiry date of the selected credential. This means that either the entered password is incorrect or no JCE in stalled is available.
Please advice.

Hi Amerjit,
I have checked the sap note: 1294782.
How to check unrestricted version of the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) on the present system - AS Java.

Karthik
Karthik, so this is on a NW 7.4 system now? Here is what I have in my personal documentation about installing the Reader Rights credential.
Note that there are some prerequisites to installing the credential, including ensuring that SSL is completely configured and operational on the AS Java ( -- go to section "SSL"), and that the Adobe Document Services Functional Unit is enabled (you can check this with https://<ADS host>:<SSL port>/sld/fun).
Cheers,
Matt
Thanks to Matt and Amerjit for your valuable information.
I have configured ADS with the A JAVA system.
1. Pre-requisites ( As per the Note:944221 - Error analysis for problems in form processing)
2. Installed the AS - Java System (if we have already any AS Java system can also be used)
3. Request SAP for the credentials if your requirement is Interactive forms.
4. Same below steps which Matt provided.
I have successfully tested & working fine.

Karthik

Hi Karthik,
I believe You have to copy the credential file (<filename>.pfx) to the following directory of the system that hosts the Adobe document services: /<DIR_GLOBAL>/AdobeDocumentServices/TrustManagerService/trust/credentials
For more please read SAP Note# 736902 - Adobe Credentials
Once you have received the credential, you can register it as described in the Adobe Document Services configuration guide.
For more information, see the SAP Help Portal:
For SAP NetWeaver Release 7.0 and 7.0x:

Hi Rahaman,
I have already copied the file *.pfx in the same location.
We are connecting ECC with Solution Manager 7.1 SP12(Interactive forms for ADS ), as the solman is the ABAP + Java stack and I need , what are the steps to be configured in solman system.
I have already checked the links which you have provided and doesn't help.

Venkata.
