SAP HANA Connection Error with Single Sign On

I am new to Alteryx so this might be an easy fix (I really hope so). I have a basic workflow that connects to SAP HANA, pulls some data, and outputs to a file. In Designer, it completes fine with no errors. When I try to save the work flow to my Gallery, I receive the following error:

I think this error might occur because we use single sign on to access SAP HANA. I do not have a password. I read elsewhere that this could cause problems, but I haven't seen a clear solution. What can I do to resolve this error to allow successful save, validation, and upload to the Gallery?

 

I need to be able to schedule this workflow with SAP HANA connections.

 

Thanks.

hello,

I am sharing some suggestion here hope sop it will helps let see 

you're experiencing an error with SAP HANA connection using Single Sign-On.

There could be various reasons for this issue, but here are a few things that you can check:

Verify that the Single Sign-On (SSO) configuration is correct and that SSO is enabled for the SAP HANA system. Check if the SSO certificate is valid and not expired.

Make sure that the user ID you are using to connect to SAP HANA via SSO has the required privileges and roles assigned to it.

Check the SAP HANA system logs for any error messages related to Iceland Nexus Logon
SSO.

Ensure that the network connection between the client and the SAP HANA server is stable and reliable.

Verify that the SAP HANA client and server versions are compatible and up-to-date.

If you are still experiencing the issue after checking these things, you may need to contact your SAP HANA administrator or SAP support for further assistance.

SAP HANA is an in-memory database platform that is widely used for processing large amounts of data in real-time. One of the key features of SAP HANA is its support for Single Sign-On (SSO), which allows users to log in once and access multiple SAP applications without the need to re-authenticate. However, SSO setup with SAP HANA can sometimes result in connection errors that can be challenging to troubleshoot.

One common error that users encounter with SAP HANA SSO is the "Logon not possible (Error in SSO)" message. This error occurs when the SAP HANA system is unable to authenticate the user's credentials against the Identity Provider (IDP) or Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) configuration. This can happen for various reasons, such as incorrect SAML configuration settings, expired or invalid certificates, or connectivity issues between the SAP HANA system and the IDP.

To troubleshoot this error, users should start by checking the SAML configuration settings in the SAP HANA system and ensure that they match the settings in the IDP. Users should also verify that the certificates used for SSO are not expired and are valid. Additionally, users should check the connectivity between the SAP HANA system and the IDP by pinging the IDP server from the SAP HANA system.

If the above steps do not resolve the error, users can try checking the trace files in the SAP HANA system to identify any specific error messages or exceptions related to SSO. Users can also consult the SAP HANA documentation or contact SAP support for further assistance.

 

In conclusion, connection errors with SAP HANA SSO can be caused by various factors, including incorrect SAML configuration settings, expired or invalid certificates, or connectivity issues. Troubleshooting these errors requires a thorough understanding of the SSO setup and a systematic approach to identify and resolve the underlying issues.
