Error "401 Unauthorized" calling wshandler service

Greetings,
On a 620 system I'm trying to complete a webservice workitem via the wshandler service using CL_SWF_IFS_WS_EXPORT=>LAUNCH_CALLBACK.
It fails with cx_swf_ws_http_exception after getting a response 401 - "Unauthorized".
WF_HANDCUST is setup, I checked SICF, the service is set for anonymous logon. Authorization is correct, since it's being called inside an authenticated session from a BSP (checked SU53 just to be sure). The URL is also correct as it works if I paste it straight from the debugger into a browser - it works and completes the item. I've tried both http GET and POST methods. I've pulled a couple of hairs out but that had no effect whatsoever.
Any ideas of what else might be wrong would be greatly appreciated...
Cheers,
Mike

I created an alias for wshandler and gave it explicit logon details and now it's happy.

The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. + Web Service userprofileservice.asmx

Hi Community,
I need you assistance on an issue I'm facing.
The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.)
I'm connecting to a web service (userprofileservice.asmx) to auto populate email address in an Info Path form. It was working fine Friday/Monday. Open the form today and I received error:5566
It's populating in preview but when I open the form in the browser (info path web part) that's when I receive error:5566
I need your help guys please, this is doing my head in.
Cheers Matt

Not sure how you do that?
I'm using SOAP UI to test I can connect to the web service and check the envelope request
details. Before it was giving me 401 error until I granted my account permission to that asmx on the web server.
It's strange because I can connect to the web service by soap UI and see all the information.
I can connect to the web service by using the URL.
Works fine in preview mode.
Was working fine on the production environment until yesterday and now I have error 5566.
All the configuration on the web server is the same.
I'm at a brick wall.. Help

Call Adapter Error - 401 Unauthorized

Hi,
We are using Multi Mapping where it splits 1 message into n messages. The n messages split by this scenario in trun calls another scenario configured in the same PI server using SOAP Adapter.
The called scenario is SOAP --> Siebel using iWay Adapter.
When the number of messages split are huge in order of thousands, the server is going for a toss and the called scenaio is failing at Call Adapter Step in IE with HTTP Error 401 Unauthorized. Few of the messages manage to pass successfully.
Anticipating your valuable inputs.
Thanks.
Regards,
Sudharshan N A

Hi Sudharshan,
There can be different reasons for getting HTTP 401: Unauthorized error. As you said, few of the messages are being passed to the called application, I would request you to check the scalability of the Seibel Server.
Also if you are using a connections from a connection pool, then it may be that the pool itself is getting exhausted, though mostly we get Socket exception/Connection Exception/IO Errors in these cases.
The other reasons can be that the user you are using to connect Seibel dont have enough permissions. But it is ruled out as you said some messages have been processed.
If the Seibel server is SSL enabled, and your PI doesn't have any certificate configured, then also you may get such errors.

Sugata

ALUI-Create Web Service - Remote Portlet Error 401:Unauthorized

I have some problems during user ALUI(AquaLogic User Interaction 6.1).
I created a Web Service - Remote Portlet,then set value of Basic Authentication Settings is "User's Basic Authentication Information". When related remote server refer to tomcat5.5,the Web Service - Remote Portlet is fine to run,but not when the related remote server refer to weblogic9.2.
When value of Basic Authentication Settings is "Use Remote Server Basic Authentication Information", related remote server refer to weblogic9.2 or tomcate5.5, the portlet is fine.
error detail:
Error
sso Portlet cannot be displayed because the remote server returned an invalid HTTP response code.
We recommend:
• Refresh sso Portlet
• Accessing this portlet at a later time.
• Contacting your portal administrator if problems persist.
Detailed error information
• Response status: 401
• Response body:
Error 401--Unauthorized
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.2 401 Unauthorized
The request requires user authentication. The response MUST include a WWW-Authenticate header field (section 14.46) containing a challenge applicable to the requested resource. The client MAY repeat the request with a suitable Authorization header field (section 14.8). If the request already included Authorization credentials, then the 401 response indicates that authorization has been refused for those credentials. If the 401 response contains the same challenge as the prior response, and the user agent has already attempted authentication at least once, then the user SHOULD be presented the entity that was given in the response, since that entity MAY include relevant diagnostic information. HTTP access authentication is explained in section 11.

How to configure remote server to accept authorization header?
I set value of Basic Authentication Settings is "User's Basic Authentication Information" because the Web Service - Remote Portlet need to get the portal's login user infomation.If the value is "Use Remote Server Basic Authentication Information",the application is fine to run.
The follow is the way to get login user infomation.
IPortletContext portletContext = PortletContextFactory.createPortletContext(request, response);
ICredentialProvider cProvider = portletContext.getCredentialProvider();
String username = cProvider.getUsername();
String password = cProvider.getPassword();
Do you have other way to authenticate users?
Thanks.

REST call in FBA WebApp returns error 401 unauthorized

Update:
I found out that this is happening only in a webapplication where FBA is activated. How can this be related? As soon as I deactivate FBA, 401 is gone.
Hello,
I'm trying to do a very basic REST call from a Console application to my SharePoint 2013. As I understand, that might be already the problem, as I'm having a hard time to authenticate my console app using oauth (which is necessary if I'm not mistaken). If
I use default credentials, everything is working just fine. If not, I receive an error 401 unauthorized. This is my code when I try to use very basic authentication using CredentialCache:
var req = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create("http://{serverurl}/_api/lists/");
req.Method = WebRequestMethods.Http.Get;
var ccache = new CredentialCache();
ccache.Add(new Uri("http://{serverurl}/"), "Basic", new NetworkCredential("{username}", "{password}", "{domain}"));
req.Credentials = ccache;
req.Headers.Add("X-FORMS_BASED_AUTH_ACCEPTED", "f");
var response = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse();
I've only replaced some irrelevant data with some placeholders. Thanks for your help and any clearification

Hey Amr,
thanks for your feedback. Let me write down some more facts about my environment so we might be able to track down what's going wrong:
- Virtual PC using Windows Server 2012
- SharePoint 2013 with September CU
- Compatibility Level 15 Webapplication using Default "Claims Based Authentication" with form based authentication activated
- Visual Studio 2013 Console Application .NET 4.5 x64 Build Target
Writing down what my base configuration is seems to have brought light into the dark. As soon as I deactivated FBA authentication I was able to execute the request without any problems. So now I know what I have to look for. Thank you!

The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized error while using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll

I have access to sharepoint site and I have tested this by manually creating the lists and announcements in the sharepoint site.
now the same thing when I try to do it through the c#.net code it always gives me the following :
"An unhandled exception of type 'System.Net.WebException' occurred in
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll Additional information: The remote server returned an error:
(401) Unauthorized."
My code looks like below:
string userName = "[email protected]";
SecureString password = new SecureString();
foreach (char c in "abc123".ToCharArray()) password.AppendChar(c);
using (var context = new ClientContext("https://sharepoint.partners.extranet.adlabs.com/sites/UniTest"))
context.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(userName, password);
context.Load(context.Web, w => w.Title);
context.ExecuteQuery();

SOAP Sender Adapter gets error '(401) Unauthorized.'

Hi all,
we are using XI 3.0 and have a scenario with a SOAP Sender Adapter, which is using "HTTPS with Client Authentication". I have configured everything I have found on the forum at Visual Admin and Integration Directory:
Set the UME property ume.logon.allow_cert to TRUE in 'Service-->UME Provider'
Imported client certificate and root CA certificate to 'Service-->Keystore'
Created user with role role SAP_XI_APPL_SERV_USER
Assigned this user to the client certificate in 'Security Provider-->UserManagement'
Added the user to xi_adapter_soap_message and xi_adapter_soap_help in 'Security Provider'
Added the root CA in 'SSL Provider>Dispatcher>Client Authentication' and marked 'Request client certificate.
Added the user to BusinessSystem at tab 'Assigned Users'
Added the user to Sender Agreement at tab 'Assigned Users'.
Our business partner got a certificate of our server and the according PrivateKey is added to 'SSL Provider>Dispatcher>Server Identity'
Unfortunately, our server certificate is not verified by an root CA!!
When the business partner now browse the URL 'https://url:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:BS_3RD_PARTNER:SOAP_SENDER&nosoap=true' on his system, he will get a 'Message Servlet is in Status OK'.
But when he tries to process the URL directly in his messaging system, he gets an error '(401) Unauthorized.'
Any hints what could be the problem between browing the URL in InternetExplorer and sending from the messaging system?
Does it really mean that authorization was successful, when getting 'Message Servlet is in Status OK' in the Browser?
How can I assign an user when not using ClientAuthentication?
I would be very thankful for every help...
Grtz, Juergen

Hi Satish,
could the user or password also be wrong, even if you get 'Message Servlet is in Status OK' when browsing the URL in the Internet Explorer? I would have seen this as a sign, that the user authentication works basically...
Is there a special place to store the password in the Visual Admin, or will the password be used, which is available in the SU01 ?
Grtz,
Juergen

HTTP Error: 401 unauthorized when executing a costcenter report.

Hi.
I get this HTTP error when executing an costcenter report.
The steps I do is following.
Call upp the report Y_D02_77000xxx
Under the "kostenstellen:Selection I Fill in this values.
Controlling area
Fiscal Year
From Period
To Period
Plan version
and finally i enter the "Cost Center group"
Then i press "execute" and get the result for differrent Cost Element, i get 2 lines "*Total" and
"**Over/underabsorption"
Now i doubleclick Over/underabsorption and select report "Cost Centers: Actual Line Items"
Now i Should get a new window woth results but instead i get a blank screen with the errormessage:
"HTTP error: 401 unauthorized"
This procedure worked fine until a couple of weeks ago.
Anyone have any ideas about what could be the problem?
Regards Johan

You might want to check all of your connections in SM59. When you get the 401 error, this is sometimes due to a connection failure (bad password and so on) in the RFC connections (this can also happen if you are using the Content Manager).
Hope that helps.

HTTP error: 401 (unauthorized) "Error in configSet"

Hi ,
I am getting this error "HTTP error: 401 (unauthorized) "Error in configSet" in the following scenarios.
A. Creating a content repository from SAP in T-code "CSADMIN"
B.Accessing the http://<domainname>:<portno>
If i give complete URL it is working.
Example :
http://<domain name>:<port no>/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo
when i provide,only with domain name and password in the url
it is asking for username & password and later it gives 401 unauthorized error
http://<domainname>:<portno>
I assume that this error is due the security settings either in IIS or in OS level.
system landscape:
CRM :5.0
SAP Content Server :6.3
Win server 2003 with sp2
Note:
Content Server is running and i can see the status from SAP.
Thanks in Advance.
Points will be awardeed for right answers.
Regards
Ganesh

Check the following :
- In IIS application pools check "Identity" property for the content server application is "LocalSystem", and not ApplicationPoolIdentity
- in IIS "handler mapping" on your content server site, check ISAPI-dll is enabled
- user access for "NETWORK SERVICE" following note 658442 - execute command :
cacls <INSTDIR> /T /E /G "NETWORK SERVICE":F
The first point has solved the issue for me.

Archive link error:HTTP error: 401 Unauthorized

Hi all,
I am getting "HTTP error: 401 Unauthorized" error while uploading pdf via archive link store business document
from front end.
Any solution
Regards
Abhijit

Abhijit,
Check that the OS user that is used to run the web application has read/write permissions for the both the "installation path" and the "repository path" - for UNIX its the Apache user id and for Windows its the user that started the IIS service.
This may resolve your issue.
