Customize web app url

In this blog, I will show how we can use a short url for custom web applications in SAP Process Orchestration.

Normally after developing an J2EE/WebModule DC and deploying it in PO, we need to use a long url to access it. E.g. http://<host>:<port>/demo.sap.com~your~dc~name~full~path/index.html.

The default url is long and hard to remember. Next we are going to generate a short url, like pimon, nwa and etc.

1). generate application.xml

in your NWDS, open your J2EE/Enterprise Application DC in Java EE perspective. Right click on the project and choose “Java EE tools” > “Generate Deployment Descriptor Stub”

Then an application.xml file is created an placed under folder META-INF.

2). edit application.xml

Replace the content-root with any short-cut you want. (e.g. yreport)

3. Deploy the J2EE/Enterprise DC.

Now you can access the web application via the shorter url: http:<host>:<port>/yreport
