Preparing Unwired Server to Connect to SAP using Java Connectors

Unwired Server can connect to SAP data sources with Java Connectors (JCo). With the correct security setup, single singon (SSO) authentication can also be implemented.

Prerequisites

Before you can access the SAP Web site, you must have an SAP account. Sybase also recommends that you make all changes concurrently in your server clusters.

Task

After installing the required SAP files see the Security chapter for details on configuring Unwired Server to use SSO.

SAP External Libraries Overview
Understand the purpose of the various external libraries you need to install into Unwired Platform to enable communication with an SAP EIS.
Installing the SAPCAR Utility
Unzip and install the latest SAPCAR utility on your Unwired Server or Unwired WorkSpace host, which you can use to extract the contents of compressed SAP files, for example RFC and cryptographic library files.
Installing the SAP Java Connector (JCo) and Latest RFC Libraries on Unwired Server
Unzip and install the contents of the latest SAP Java Connector (JCo) file in all nodes of your Unwired Server cluster. The JCo 2.1.x file does not include the latest RFC library, so separately download and install RFC library version 7.10 (non-unicode), replacing the bundled 6.40 version.
Installing the SAP Cryptographic Libraries on Unwired Platform
Installation and configuration is required if you want to configure Secure Network Communications (SNC) for Unwired Platform SAP JCo connections. SNC may be required by the SAP EIS in question, if SSO2 tokens or X.509 certificates are used for connection authentication.
Installing DOE-C on Unwired Server
Install the DOE Connector (DOE-C) on Unwired Server hosts that enable communication between Unwired Server and the SAP system
