Unsupported project in WebIDE, and project type settings
Sometimes when adding project into the Web IDE workspace, you may face a strange behavior in the project itself after its import. Basically, project settings might not be configured adequately turning project not legible for deploy.
Symptom
Not able to deploy an UI5/Fiori application in the ABAP backend. A Unsupported project message is shown during deployment.
Reason and causes
Main causes are:
- Missing properties in
manifest.json
- Wrong key/pair values in
manifest.json
- Project type is not yet set.
Solution
- First approach: Access
manifest.json
file using Code Editor option.
(right click on manifest.json, then Open Code Editor);Under tagsap.app
, propertytype
should appear with value"application"
- Seconds approach: Edit your project settings, and select SAP Fiori type
(right click on project, then Project > Project Settings);
(check SAP Fiori on Project Types)
