Goal


Does Application Deployment Manager (ADM) online deployment work with SSO and LDAP?


The ADM online deployment fails with the errors below:

An error occurred connecting to the Target System. Please verify the connection information.(SBL-SVC-00252)

The environment is SSO and LDAP enabled.



Fix


ADM is the framework; underneath, ADM uses Enterprise Application
Integration (EAI) for data deployment through the business object layer.


The online deployment of Siebel ADM uses EAI technology:  ADM uses an
EAI HTTP inbound call to connect to the target environment. The first
step in setting up ADM to do online deployment is to make sure the EAI
HTTP inbound call to target environment is successful, independent from
the ADM UI.


The ADM inbound EAI HTTP request logs into the EAIObjMgr_enu object
manager using the username and password in the URL; thus, SSO and LDAP
need to be configured for the EAIObjMgr_enu component.

Since
there are currently issues with EAI using SSO, ADM does not yet work
with SSO. When there is a new SSO solution for EAI,  then ADM will work
with SSO.






ADM with Management Server is NOT supported in an SSO-enabled mode.




Workaround without Management Server and Management Agent:






This workaround should NOT be implemented in an
environment with Management Server and Management Agent since the
process would expose the trust token in multiple places.

Create a dedicated Siebel user to perform all EAIObjMgr works,
bypassing the SSO and LDAP.  This works successfully in deploying from
source to target.



Test Submitting an Inbound EAI HTTP Request:


URL to submit an inbound EAI HTTP request to the target environment:



http://kachend123.siebel.com:80/eai_enu/start.swe?SWEExtSource=SiebelEcho&SWEExtCmd=Execute&UserName=SADMIN&Password=SADMIN&SWEExtData=ABC



Description of URL: kachend123.siebel.com:80/eai_enu/start.swe? This
is the target machine name where the EAI component is running; 80 is
the port used to configure the SWSE in target environment.

SWEExtSource=SiebelEcho&SWEExtCmd=Execute This
is to execute SiebelEcho defined in your siebsrvr\bin\enu\eai.cfg file
in the [HTTP Services] section. SiebelEcho is defined as a method in the
EAI profile subsystem.

&UserName=SADMIN&Password=SADMIN This is the username and password you want to use to log into the target system.

&SWEExtData=ABC This is the data you want to send. In this example, the text "ABC" is sent.


Steps to Submit:



  1. Open an IE browser.

  2. Copy and paste the above command in the URL, and hit enter.

  3. If successful, you will be prompted to save in a file named start.swe.

  4. Save the file.

  5. Open the file start.swe with notepad:  the text ABC is shown.



You should be able to do this with an out-of-the-box configuration.





Perform/Check in the Target Environment:



  1. Enable the "Enterprise Application Integration" server component group.

  2. Synchronize the batch component after you enable the server component group.

  3. Restart the Siebel Server service.

  4. Confirm that "EnableExtServiceOnly = TRUE" in the eai_enu section of the eapps.cfg.





Extracted Example From eapps.cfg:
[/eai_enu]
ConnectString = siebel.TCPIP.None.None://kachend123:2321/SEA78/EAIObjMgr_enu
EnableExtServiceOnly = TRUE
WebPublicRootDir = D:\S78\SWEApp\public\enu

Symptoms


We are working with ADM, trying to migrate data from Dev to test
environments using the Application Deployment Manager GUI. We are using
the vanilla View object created by Siebel when installed. We have
created the project and the session to migrate the views.

However, ADM fails while trying to access our test environment. We get the following error:



An error occurred connecting to the Target System. Please verify the connection information.



I have checked the test environment for:



•    EAI Object manager is enabled and running.

•    UDA Deployment exists in the Enterprise profile and eai.cfg.

•    Login works is successful.

•    I can manually export a file and import the file successfully.





The following is output from the ADM session log:

The problem was due to the password associated with the SADMIN user.

The password contained a '$' symbol which was causing the error.



Solution





A different user without the '$' symbol worked fine.

Do not use the '$' or '#' symbols in passwords.
