Background documentationMigrating PAR Files Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

Portal applications in previous versions of SAP NetWeaver were packaged in PAR files (zipped files with a .par extension) and deployed to the Portal Runtime (instead of the JEE engine).

You can migrate PAR files into the current version of SAP NetWeaver by doing one of the following:

  • Converting PAR Files: Enables you to convert a PAR file to an EAR file. You can then deploy the EAR file.

  • Importing PAR Files: Enables you to import a PAR file into NetWeaver Developer Studio, creating a new portal application project. You can then package it into an EAR file and deploy the EAR file.

Note Note

In order to edit the portal application, the PAR file must include the source files.

End of the note.
