Exception handling with fault message type not working

Hi,
I have a sync proxy to proxy scenario and I have created a fault MT and specified in the outbound and Inbound service interface...
*In Inbound proxy I have the following code--*......
RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE z_cx_test_fault
EXPORTING
standard = l_standard_data.
In the sender side abap code which calls the outbound proxy I have the follwing code -
CATCH cx_ai_system_fault INTO lo_cx_ai_system_fault.
txt = lo_cx_ai_system_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
CATCH z_cx_test_fault INTO lo_cx_test_fault.
txt = lo_cx_standard_message_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
CATCH cx_ai_application_fault INTO lo_cx_ai_application_fault.
txt = lo_cx_ai_application_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
when i test the inbound proxy separately I get the custom fault message properly...
however when i run the proxy to proxy sync scenario and the custom exceptionz_cx_test_fault is raised inside the receiver proxy .......control goes to CATCH cx_ai_application_fault and not CATCH z_cx_test_fault .
I understand that cx_ai_application_fault is the super class of all the exception class but why does control go to its exception handling when a custom exception is raised...

Hi
I tried changing the sequence also but it did not work...
I can see an appropriate response coming from the receiver in SXMB_MONI of PI...this response has the "fault response "
"fault detail" data that I want.....however when the control goes to the sender why does it go to CATCH CX_AI_APPLICATION_FAULT and not not my CATCH z_cx_test_fault .
My observation - If I change the scenario to SOAP to Proxy sync..then the sender SOAP client gets the appropriate custom fault message back.

(Solution) We want to automatize the process so that the error message goes directly to the System via XI. In other words we only want an acknowledgment of the error in XI, we don't want to solve the error since we believe that it is the sender System that is responsible.
We have seen that there is a Fault Message Type in the Message Interface and we are wondering if that is the way to do it? And it that case, how?

Hi,
Fault message is a error meesage. Its like an exception in simple terms. The fault message is used to
store a log for application error. Fault messages is defined in IR.
To give a overview on Fault messages it is mostly used in synchronous communication. When an error
occurs at the inbound side instead of sending the response message back it sends a fault message back
to the sender system to handle error.
Fault Message are Msg type that provided whenever u create a namespace..they are usually used to get
the exception or error mapped which has occured while execution of Application at the sender/receiver
end....
One scenario where i had used it from Soap to RFC where i defined the exception in rfc source code at
r/3 end...I mapped that exception to Fault msg type that i created of my own type(didnt used the
default)..
Fault messages are used to propogate / send back the error message to the calling application. This is
used when there is a failure and the sending system needs to know what the error was. This is more of
catching Application Errors

Error handling using fault message type in outbound synchronous ABAP proxy

Hi,
We've a scenario, outbound synchronous ABAP proxy to synchronous SOAP receiver. The requirement is to send multiple records in a single rquest and get response for all the records sent (in the same response message).
Say if I send 10 records from ECC, I should get 10 records as response from SOAP to ECC. But the problem here is, there could be some invalid requests, for which an invalid error status code should be sent as part of response.
Source Structure
Req_Proxy
    req (0..unbounded, string)
Response Structure
Resp_SOAP
Resp (0..Unbounded)
       respString (0..1, String) (carries the actaul response message)
      status code (0..1, String) (carries the status of the response, for ex, 001 (successful), 002 (error))
And now we are planning to make use of Fault Message Type, to track the errors from SOAP (status code 002). But, we are not sure on how to track this for all the requested records. Is it possible to track the errors for all the requested records in a singe call using fault message type? For eg if 8 records are successful and 2 are invalid, then we should get 10 records in response 8 for valid and 2 for invalid accordingly.
Please calrify.
Thanks.
Rohit

For eg if 8 records are successful and 2 are invalid, then we should get 10 records in response 8
for valid and 2 for invalid accordingly.
Check if you can modify the WSDL structure to include an error node that would get populated incase of invalid entries....this would mean that you get the success and failure details in the single message....also at the proxy-end make the necessary change in your DT.....may be then you do not need to use the fault message...

Creating new logical ports for WSDL with several port types not working

Hi all,
I am trying to integrate some BODS webservice into the BPM. I am using CE 7.2 Kernel Version: 7.20.3710. When I am trying to assign a provider system in the application configuration I get following error:
The provider system successfully found the needed service, but its wsdl is without webservice policy. Thus the generated client configuration might not work because of different configurations between service and client (most probable a difference in the security settings). Either assign a provider system with access to wsdl with policy or manually create the client configuration.
The regarding provider system is using a communication profil where the authentication method is set to "none". Normally this configuration should work, but it isn't.
So I started to create new logical ports for each port type. But then I get the error:
Port type name of loaded WSDL does not match the port type name of the Service Reference.
I checked already the port type names in the WSDL but they are 100% the same. What I found was that the configuration is always trying to use the first port type in the WSDL. So I am not able to configure the other port types in the service group.
I also tried to do the same thing using a WSDL with just one port type and surprise it is working...
I hope somebody can help me out
Thanks in advance

Types of fault message types

Can someone tell me the different types of fault message types available in XI?

Hi,
Fault Message Types
are used only for returining messages form the inobund side (application)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dd/b7623c6369f454e10000000a114084/content.htm
if you want to create error handling for a mapping
you can use transformation step (in a BPM)
add a block and catch the mapping error inside this block
(and for instance send a file from this exception branch
Refernces Fault message types for the Exception handling .
Fault message types corresponding to the standard SOAP Fault type can be included (execepted in the outbound Asynchronous case)
A fault message is a message that describes an application-specific error situation.
Fault message types are designed for application-specific errors that occur on the inbound side and that are reported back to the sender or persisted in monitoring.
· In the synchronous case, when an application-specific error occurs on the inbound side, instead of sending a response message back to the sender, the application can send a fault message to handle the error.
· The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement (see Acknowledgments).
Application-specific means that the application on the inbound side triggers the error itself because, for example, the request message did not contain sufficient information.

Difference in Fault message types & exceptions for Webservice in ABAP

Hello all,
I am relatively new to the web service framework in SAP. My problem scenario is as follows.
I have a WSDL file of a webservice from 3rd party non-SAP s/w and I want to replicate the same webservice into SAP by creating FM in SE37 with same imp/exp parameters and functionality.
So I first created a consumer proxy using the external WSDL file of non-SAP webservice. This generated imp/exp DDIC structures in SAP. Now I created a RFC FM in SE37 with similar Imp/exp parameters and relesed this FM as a webservice. I then created another consumer proxy using WSDL of this newly created webservice in SAP.
In the old consumer proxy I see a structure as SOAPFault as a Fault message type which has 3 fields ERRORCODE, TEXT, DETAILS but in the newly created consumer proxy I don't see Fault message types but i see exceptions which i mentioned in exception tabs while creating the FM. The imp/exp parameters are identical.
So my question is while creating a web service in SAP using a FM in SE37, what needs to be done in order to get the Fault message types getting created automatically when we create a consumer proxy for this webserivice?
Also based on the WSDL of 3rd party system , can i replicate the same web service in SAP ?
Appreciate your expert advice on this.

Hi Krishna,
I've read the SAP description about Fault Message Types but I'm still struggling on how to use them correctly.
Why do we need them if I can't do nothing with it on the BPM side? After the mapping of the FMT, I'd like to acess it so that I can send a description back to the original system...The thing is, in BPM you can't acess the FMT, you can only create a new BRANCH (on a block step) for it...
I've tried to acess the description text on trace which comes with the message, but it seems that the trace only serves for posting info, and not for getting any...
The Mapping Runtime Constants have some information where you can read some descriptions, but nothing related to the errors....You can read the Receiver service, sender, interface_namespace, but nothing from the ERROR tag...
Is there a way to get the description? Or anything related to the error tag?
Thanks in advance

Fault message types: Why do we need them?

Hi guys,
I have a bpm scenario created, tested and working.
This bpm starts with a async receive, a Sync Send to a R3 system by an ABAP proxy and a final async send to the original system.
I'm contemplating exception handling and other type of errors. Meaning, if the abap proxy dumps I can raise an exception and map it on the XI environment. The thing is, on sxmb_moni I get the exception handler, with the exception texts, id's, etc... from the R3 being mapped to the XI fault message type.
But the problem is I can't get to map the text from the fault message type into any field from the response of the original system.
I've searched the forum and I've seen that this area is surrounded by doubts and questions...
But in the end I'm forced to place the question, why do I need the fault message types? What use can I give them, besides of the cute little thunder on the sxmb_moni?
Thanks for your attention guys

Doubt on technical systems and fault message types

Hi,
 I had still doubt & i'm not clear to answers i got yesterday , plz clarify my doubts
 1.what are fault message types and how do we catch any exceptions in file to proxy scenario , can any one give simple example ?
 2.How do we register a non-sap system(FTP SERVER) in SLD ? what steps should we follow? Does any one have blogs regarding this?
 Plz answer to this questions, good answers will be rewarded.

How is the Fault Message Type used?

Hi,
I have a HTTP-SOAP scenario.I want to post a request to a HTTP Server using the SOAP receiver adapter and get the ackowledgement message from the receiver, if it was successful or not. Is this possible using the Fault Message type?
If not how else can i capture the response in the EO mode?

Hi Sivasakthi
Yes you can capture soap response using SOAP fault message
Check this link for embedded soap response

Is it mandatory to use a Fault Message Type.

Hi all
I am currently doing a Soap-Proxy synchronous scenario,where by sending an employee id through webservice to SAP ECC ,employee details will be retreived from ECC as a response.
In this scenario, is it necessary to specify the Fault Message Type in the outbound and inbound synchronous Message interfaces and do the corresponding message mapping for Fault message types.
Asvance Thanks,
Ram.

Hi ram,
It is not at all mendetary to use Fault message in ur case.Usually it depends upon requirement.If client want's to implement ...u have to use.
generally fault messages are used wen u want to catch some exception viz. ECC server is down,Employee ID does not exist.,No record found for the given EmpID etc....ect.......

What is fault message type in mapping

what is the use of fault message type in message mapping . where do we use them .please spare a little time to type rather to refer to other blogs. have a nice day

Hi Bose
Fault messages are used to propogate / send back the error maessage to the calling application. This is used when there is a failue and the sending system needs to know what the error was. This is more of catching Application Errors.

Hi,
you define the exception handler in the block properties. Define (via context) an exception branch for the block, where you jump into in case of errors and decide, what to do (f.e. alert or stop process).
