Publishing a Service 

Use

In order for an Internet service to be executed by the ITS, it must be stored in the ITS file system. This is known as publishing the service. You can choose to publish the entire service or just parts of it. When you publish the whole service, the corresponding Internet service and its HTML templates are placed in the file system of the AGate server, and the MIME objects are placed in the file system of the WGate server.

Note that by default, the Internet service is published on all Internet Transaction Servers. However, you can choose to restrict the publication to an ITS assigned to your particular R/3 System. To do this, choose Utilities ® Settings and then, under ITS, enter the required server. For further information, refer to User Settings.

Prerequisites

At least one ITS must have been assigned to the R/3 System, and it must be active.

Procedure

To publish an entire Internet service from the object list:

  1. Right-click the relevant service.
  2. Choose Publish ® Entire service from the context menu.

If an error occurs while the system is publishing the service, a log is generated containing the relevant message texts.

If no errors occur, the system displays the message The object has been published successfully.

Result

Once you have published the entire service, you can start your Web application.
