Somehow I did something stupid yesterday. I created a new OData Service via SEGW and after generating it, the classes had a _01 in the name, which of course was not what I wanted. So I came up with the idea of simply deleting the 4 generated classes and regenerate the service. That worked fine, and the classes then got the right name. But when I tried to add the service via /iwfnd/maint_service, I got the following error:
Somehow, the service was still looking for a class that I had deleted because it had an incorrect name.
When I opened the service via /iwbep/reg_service, I saw that in the model information, that there was still the incorrect class name for the model provider class. So I needed to update the model provider class which was assigned to the technical model. This was possible via /iwbep/reg_model (Report /IWBEP/R_DST_MODEL_BUILDER). This report can also be accessed by clicking on “Create model” in the /iwbep/reg_service transaction, but the required “Change” button is then deactivated, so be sure to open it in a separate GUI window. After adjusting the model provider class, I was finally able to add the service successfully via /iwfnd/maint_service.
Next time, instead of deleting the classes, betting delete the full OData Service (like it is described here) and create a complete new one.
Recently I was continuing an enhancement project of a standard Fiori Application. The already existing enhancement project was created using WebIDE a few years ago. Now I needed to add some more functionality to the enhancement project using the Business Application Studio. To my surprise, the automatic migration of the WebIDE project to a BAS project was working without any issues. Nice! I could make my changes and everything was fine until I tried to deploy the application.
The abap_deploy_taskaborted with the error “Request is not a local Request” (in German “Auftrag ist kein lokaler Auftrag“).
Somehow it did not deploy in my Workbench Transport Request and was expecting a Local Transport Request.
At first, I thought, this was a problem in the ui5-deploy.yaml configuration of my App, and therefore I was looking in the wrong direction. But after checking the package of the already deployed enhancement project in the backend, I finally found the reason. The Transport Layer of the Package containing the BSP application was not correct. It turned out, that the previous developer was not able to deploy from his WebIDE directly to the system, instead he deployed to another system, exported and then imported the transport request manually. Therefore, the “Original System” of all objects was incorrect and also the Transport Layer on the Package. After updating both (like described here), I was able to deploy the enhancement project successfully in my Workbench Transport Request.
Recently found the Environment Check functionality in BAS, which really helped me to check destinations on different customer BAS instances, where I didn’t have direct access to the BTP instance. I’m just posting this here so I don’t forget.
