Accessing a BSP Application
As we have already explained, you access a BSP application using the HTTP or HTTPS (Secure HTTP) protocol. The BSP runtime environment uses the HTTP framework of the SAP Web Application Server (compare
Interaction Model). In the Internet Communication Framework (ICF), for a BSP application to function smoothly you need a node, that is, a service in the service tree (see also Creating a BSP Application). 
Ensure that after a SAP Web AS has been installed, that all services are inactive and that they must be activated accordingly. For additional information about activating services, see
Activating and Deactivating an ICF Service and Note 517484. A BSP application is addressed and executed through HTTP using a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The URL of a BSP application has the following structure (default configuration):
<Prot>://<Host>.<domain>.<extension>:<Port>/sap/bc/bsp/<namespace>/<application name>
The protocol
Prot is http or https (if configured). Host is the name of the application server that should execute the application. Domain and the Extension comprises several hosts under a common name, although they can either be made up of an individual host or a network. The Port number can be omitted if the default port 80 (http) or 443 (https) is used.For SAP Web Application Server, the default port number is 1080 (HTTP) or 1443 (HTTPS). The namespace is the namespace ID of the BSP application. SAP applications are delivered in the
sap namespace. If you created your BSP application in its own namespace, you must use this namespace in the URL. The application name is the name of the BSP application as defined in the development environment.
Here is an example of a URL for BSP test application
http://myServer.sap-ag.de:1080/sap/bc/bsp/sap/it00


The full name of the server is specified, including the network domain (here:
sap-ag.de). Otherwise, the BSP runtime environment returns an error. The full domain must be specified as otherwise there may be problems with HTTP cookies (such as Single Sign On).Windows 2000 may cause problems with the DNS configuration. In this case, see
DNS Configuration for BSP Applications in Windows 2000When this URL is started in the Web browser, the BSP application is started and the initial page is displayed (by default this is
default.htm).To determine the URL of a BSP or BSP application within the SAP development environment, look on the Properties tab at the right side of the SAP GUI screen.
