If an error message occurs, or if there is no response at all, please refer to the Enterprise Connector log file.
Note: A typical reason for no response is either the SAP Gateway has security enabled and Basis must allow access (refer to above section Configure SAP Gateway – Enterprise ECM Only) or the SAP Jco library does not exist in the Jco folder. *the Windows service must be restarted for changed to take effect
