Can not connect to a SAP BTP Trial ABAP Environment instance

In this blog I will collect error messages that you may see when you try to connect to your SAP BTP Trial ABAP Environment instance.

  1. “The uaa credentials of the service key used to create this project are no longer valid. Please create a new project using the ABAP Cloud Project Wizard.”I received this message when trying to open an ABAP Cloud project that pointed to a trial instance that I had deleted.The error message given is misleading in this case since you can only create a new project once you have created a new instance of the ABAP environment in your trial account as described here:Create an SAP BTP ABAP Environment Trial User | Tutorials for SAP Developers

  2. com.sap.adt.compatibility.exceptions.OutDatedClientException:
    The message content is not acceptableThough this error is not really a connection problem it turned out that it occurs when a user tried to publish a service binding using an outdated ADT installation.

    Installing the latest version of ADT tools solved the issue.

  3. com.sap.adt.compatibility.exceptions.OutDatedClientException

    You get an error message that contains the follwoing stringcom.sap.adt.compatibility.exceptions.OutDatedClientException.
    As described in this blog https://blogs.sap.com/2019/10/22/update-for-abap-development-tools-fails-when-using-an-outdated-eclipse-version/ we only support the latest versions of Eclipse to be used with the latest ADT plugin.

    Solution:
    Make sure that you configure the update sites of both Eclipse and ADT so that they point to the latest version.

 

 

I will continue to add additional error messages once I stumble across one.

      Hi Andre,

      Thanks for sharing the error scenarios.

      I am getting one message as 'Uh Oh Something went amiss' while I am trying to logon to ABAP trial environment from Eclipse ADT. I was able to log on to the system till yesterday.

      Can this be a system maintenance issue?

      Thanks,

      Can you  share the URL of your ABAP trial instance with me?
      It seems that this is an issue that does not hit everybody.

      Hi andre,

      The latest adt 2021-06 got installed in eclipse and now I cannot add abap cloud projects anymore. Opening existing cloud projects from project explorer also won't work anymore. Is there something I'm missing?

      "The project can no longer be used as its authentication kind is unkown."

       

      Thanks

      Yes, I have the following versions:

      • https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-06/
      • https://tools.hana.ondemand.com/latest

      Edit: reinstalling eclipse fixed the problem.

      You have to install the latest version of ADT and Eclipse.

      Your versions will not work.

      Hello Andre,

      I have 3 SAP BTP ABAP Environment instances in a trial account. The first one I created opens successfully, while the others give a 503 error. I can only connect to my first creation via Eclipse. This problem has been going on for 2 days. Sometimes it connects successfully but runs slowly.
      What could be the reason for this?
      Thank you very much.

      Best Regards,

      Orhan

      Hello everybody,

      Mine seems to be working now as well. So I guess the problem was related to SAP Servers and it seems to be solved now.

      thanks

      Can you also create artifacts? No transport request is available.

      Hi Andre,

      I am getting an error "cannot connect to the service instance. the service is currently not available". i tried searching for the resolution, which said I should update my Eclipse it is updated to latest version. However, I am still facing the same issue, could you please help. I tried both the methods to open in browser and copying the url and pasting in the browser. Nothing really helped.

      The system was not available due to an upgrade process. It is available again.

      Hi Andre,

      Getting error 'Cannot connect to the Service Instance. The service is currently not available.' while trying to login into my Trial ABAP account via ADT. I have still couple of weeks left for my Trial account to expire. Saw many people have raised this but no valid solution or reason mentioned over those threads.

      Requesting you to assist here. My guess is this might be because of some upgradation for the ABAP Environment or something at the BTP Runtime environment level. Since couple of colleagues are facing the same isue.

      Cannot%20connect%20to%20the%20Service%20Instance.

      Cannot connect to the Service Instance.

      Thanks,

      You have probably been assigned to another system than the one you have been assigned before.

      Therefore I always recommend to export stuff you want to reuse to a private GitHub repository.
