SAP Portal - WebDynpro ABAP iView

We are running Portal 7.0.18. The WebDynpro ABAP appl is called xyz.

We created an iView and specify the appl "xyz". Both previewing and opening in a page will only result in an endless loop.

Then we figured it out the Portal was sending the request to backend ABAP server like

https:///sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/xyz/;sap-ext-sid=......

That was wrong, it should be <...>/sap/xyz;sap-ext-sid=......

SAP must mistakenly append a "/" after appl name.

I am searching for the fix from SAP for this issue. For now, I just define the appl as xyz\ and the \ will nullify the /.

... after 2 hours searching ...

OK, SAP note 1230506 - Endless loop when starting Web Dynpro ABAP is right on it.

This blog was nice.
The information that you provided is great.

ABAP used to be an abbreviation of Allgemeiner Berichtsaufbereitungsprozessor, the German meaning of “generic report preparation processor”, but was later renamed to Advanced Business Application
Programming. ABAP was one of the first languages to include the concept of Logical Databases (LDBs), which provides a high level of abstraction from the basic database level.
