Thanks for your reply Masa. I was hoping you would pitch in !
I will definitely check the logs but there is a point here , the error message seems to change if i check the boxes for System Alias ( Local Gateway or Local App ) and i get the below error.
For an embedded deployement is it how you do for system aliases by unchecking both the boxes ?
Also another question that keeps puzzling me is "when" do the services in folder sap ®opu ® odata ® sap show up for the respective apps, is it after you activate the odata services in the gateway or right after installation of the components, in which case i dont see them in the folder right now ? Could this be due to the SP level mismatch as you mentioned ?
Appreciate your inputs .
Thanks
Sunny
