Problem configure WSDL destination for web services metadata gen and exec

Hello,
First question:
Is WSIL supported by an R/3 4.7 ABAP system?
If yes I'd like to consume web services from it (Function Modules remote-enabled), through WSIL. I need thus to configure 2 WSDL destinations on the SLD for metadata generation and execution.
Second question:
What are the url to fill-in into the destination template configurations?
Thanks for your input,
Tanguy Mezzano

In other words, is it possible to call web services from a R/3 4.7 abap stack with WSIL, thus not through the WSDL. For that we need to set two WSDL destinations in the SLD in section SOAMANAGER.
Or is this only possible for ECC6.0?
Thanks for helping.
Tanguy

Why do I get parsing errors with my WSDL URL for Web Services usage

Hi,
I am puzzled with the errors I get when I want to create a Web Service datastore.
Scenario: I have created a SAP Web Service from CRM using SOAMANAGER. The WSDL URL produced by SOAMANAGER is accessibile when pasting the URL directly in Internet Explorer. WSDL URL [http://UXCIQ0M.WDF.SAP.CORP:50076/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/srvc_CBDCB34C89C29304E10000000A4282C0/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=504]
When using the WSDL URL in the Web Service datastore URL field, I get the error An error occurred while importing metadata: WSDLException; faultcode=PARSER_ERROR: Problem parsing: The element type "br" must be terminated by matching tag "/br". (BODI-1111469) (BODI-1112446)
When I save the WSDL defintion in a local file and use a local file path, I get the errors An error occurred while importing metadata: WSDLException (at /wsdl:definitions/wsdl:portype/wsp:Policy): faultcode=INVALID_WSDL: Encountered unexpected element 'Policy. (BODI-1111469) (BODI-1112446)
My questions:
- Why do I get different parsing errors despite the fact that the XML is the same?
- The WSDL is generated by SOAMANAGER. Shouldn't it work directly when integrating with Web Services generated from an SAP environment?
- Is this related to confiurgation issue? I have set the Job Manager to Support adapter, message broker and SNMP communication
- What is the difference between the datastore of type Adapter and the datastore Web Service? In the white paper [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20bd5e60-11f9-2b10-2bbb-b5109cceff08?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] it is mentioned to use the Adapter type to consume a Web Service. It is not clear to me why we have those 2 types.
Thanks & Best Regards

Some updates on this issue, which might help others in the community.
- Data Service doesn't support ws_policy.
- SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SOAMANAGER generate WDSL with ws_policy. In future releases, it is possible to specify not to use ws_policy
- In most cases, replacing ws_policy with standard in the URL directly, works. It doesn't work with Data Services :(.
- Replacing ALL ws_policy in the XML directly is currently the only way to have the WSDL definition being parsed properly by Data Services.

WSDL generator for web-service behind a router/proxy

I create jax-ws service and deploy it on local network computer (LS:port1)
and set up direct port forward from computer in DMZ ES:port2 to LS:port1.
When I browse for http://ES:port2/sevice/serviceport?wsdl it generate invalid schemaLocation

Can I forcedly set service location?

yes, you can set ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY on BindingProvider for requestContext
requestContext.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,"http://example.com/webservices/service1");

Problem configuring Email transport for business service

Hi,
I'm trying to configure an email transport for an outgoing business service and the General Configuration page is showing the error:
[WliSbTransports:381030]Neither SMTP nor mail session exists
and consequently the Email Transport configuration page has both the SMTP Server and Maill Session pull downs greyed out.
I presume there is some external configuration required so that OSB can discover the SMTP service but I can't find any reference to this. Can someone help?
regards

Blog at http://blogs.oracle.com/christomkins/2007/12/sending_an_email_from_oracle_s.html by Chris Tomkins should help. Did you configure SMTP server in OSB?

WSDL error during generation of ABAP proxy for web service

Hi friends,
I am getting error during the generation of ABAP proxy object for web service developed in .NET .
Error : Proxy generation terminated: WSDL error (<extension> not supported).
How to make this WSDL file compatible for ABAP proxy.
I have tried to edit WSDL file in XML Spy but did not get any option to replace/remove the tag <extention>.
If any one worked on this. Please help me its urgent.
Thanks and regards,

HI ,
I am having the same issue!!!
Does ABAP Proxy Generation support <extension> ?
Is there a list available of what is supported and what not (please consider I do not have access to sap notes)?

Problem in writing a client web service from WSDL document

Hi,
I wrote a web service using .Net and a WSDL document. I tried after that to generate a client web service using Jdeveloper. but, the methode generated by Jdeveloper (in the stub) does not represente the original methode.
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>

</definitions>
Here The methode Validate consume two parameters : string and long
the generated stub look like :
public Vector Validate(Element requestElem) throws Exception
There is some one who have a solution ?
---------------------------------------

My guess is that it is because .NET defaults to generating a document style interface whereas JDeveloper defaults to generating an RPC style interface. The end result is that JDeveloper wraps the document interface in something that looks document like - thus your client. To see how to handle this right now, check out this sample - you have to parse the XML:
http://otn.oracle.com/tech/webservices/htdocs/series/net/content.html
In the preview of JDeveloper 9.0.3 which is due quite soon - next few weeks roughly (crossing my fingers) - JDeveloper will wrap .NET document based Web services in a much more elegant wrapper - giving you exactly what you are looking for - a method called Validate rather than a vector of Elements.
What I don't understand in your sample, however, is that you have WSDL generated from JDeveloper versus WSDL generated from .NET. Did you also do an implementation of the validate method in Java too?

Invalid Content Type Error for Web Service

Hi Experts,
We have a XI / PI Web Service, and have created an Adaptive Web Service Model for the same. For using this web service model, we have created a HTTP destination of type WSDL.
This configuration works great in our development and consolidation server.
While working with our production server, with all the settings same as consolidation server, the following error is generated for Web Service call. using the AWS model
java.io.IOException: Invalid content type while requesting http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/resources/<application_package>/guicall.wsdl. Expected Content-type: text/xml, received Content-type: content/unknown, used user to connect: null
The HTTP destination address is the one specified in bold above.
Also, in later part of the stack trace we are bale to see this error:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.model.webservice.exception.WSModelRuntimeException: Exception on creation of service metadata for WS metadata destination
Please guide us on this issue.
Best Regards,
Alka.

Hi Alka,
How did you configure the Webservice Destinations in Visual Admin for a webservice explosed by XI system.
I mean what was the URL specified, did you specify XI SYSTEM userid password ???
How was the webservice published to inspection.wsil in XI system ??
Thanks,

GenericServiceFactory initialization problem when trying to load Web servic

Hi,
I am making a Guided procedure that calls a webservice. I have created a new Destination Template and was able to load the webservice definition successfully, but when I test the callable object I created for that same webservice y get the error:
GenericServiceFactory initialization problem when trying to load Web service model for WSDL.
Somehow I think there is something wrong with the user authentication. The Destination template has a user and password but somehow I think the callable object test is not using this information at all.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Hans,
Have you verified if you can call any external web service calls from your J2EE engine? Go into the SOA Management / Global settings (if you are on CE - if you're on 7.0 it's in manage WS desintations).
Look at your proxy settings and set them like your web browser that enables external calls. For example, in the SAP network I set my global proxy settings on my local J2EE engine to be:
Proxy host: proxy
Proxy port: 8080
Exclude list: *.sap.corp
Does that make sense - have you verified if your settings are correct for your company?

Include xml schema in the WSDL of the web service

Hi,
I have a bpel process where I want to call several web service, so therefore the web services should reference the same xsd schema. I use JDeveloper and Oracle PM 10.1.3.3.0.
I have a problem with including the schema in the wsdl of the web service, and I receive an error at deploying the web service.
For including the schema I tried, things like:
<types>

Building client proxies for web services with SOAP attachemtns

Hi all.
I'm currently building a series of web services that take SOAP attachments as
input, but I am unable to generate the java proxies for testing the services via
WebLogic Workshop 8.1. When I attempt to build the proxy, I get the following
error:
Warning: Failed to generate client proxy from WSDL definition for this service.
Suggestion: Please verify the <types> section of the WSDL.
Is there something I need to alter to get this to work, or does workshop not support
client proxies for web services with DataHandler parameters?
Thanks.

Thanks for the help. This is my first web service with SOAP attachments, so it
may have been a long time till I realized that.

Thanks Brian,
The problem is that you are trying to use the "document" soap-style :-)
If you change this to "rpc", you'll should be able to successfully generate
the
client proxy jar. The soap-style property, is at the bottom of the "protocol"
property sheet section, for the JWS.

Could not generate stub objects for web service invocation in ColdFusion

I was able to call the services on the development box - windows server without any problem at all, everything was working fine but the moment i uploaded to a linux box production server I get this error. "Could not generate stub objects for web service invocation in ColdFusion"
What could be the cause of this problem, i have googled a lot but no solution yet any ideas.

Let me make it simple:
1. Server A is our development server.- hosted inhouse with coldfusion installed.
2. Server B is our production server - a linux server with coldfusion installed hosted on the internet
3. Server C is a third party server containing the webservice - this is a windows server with .net
coldfusion is installed on Server A, the code works here and can connect to server C without any problem. It gets the required respone
but when the code was uploaded to server c it gives the error when we run it.
now i tried just a simple code which works fine on server A below:
<cfinvoke webservice="http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL" method="ConversionRate" returnvariable="ConversionRateResult">
    <cfinvokeargument name="FromCurrency" value="EUR" />
    <cfinvokeargument name="ToCurrency" value="USD" />
</cfinvoke>
<cfdump var="#ConversionRateResult#" />
But when i uploaded it to server C: it returns the error
Cannot generate stub objects for web service invocation.
Name: http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL. WSDL: http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL. java.io.FileNotFoundException: /opt/coldfusion8/stubs/WS728929035/NET/webserviceX/www/Currency.java (No such file or directory) It is recommended that you use a web browser to retrieve and examine the requested WSDL document to ensure it is correct. If the requested WSDL document cannot be retrieved or is dynamically generated, it is likely that the target web service has programming errors.
The error occurred in /home/works/public_html/currency.cfm: line 7
5 :     <cfinvokeargument name="FromCurrency" value="EUR" />
6 :
7 :     <cfinvokeargument name="ToCurrency" value="USD" />
8 :
9 : </cfinvoke>
Now if you try the preceeding code on a windows environment it works fine but the moment you put in the in the linux environment it generates this error
I feel that the error may actually be :
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /opt/coldfusion8/stubs/WS728929035/NET/webserviceX/www/Currency.java (No such file or directory)
but i am clueless as to what to do next
Ok so I tried the wget command on the linux
this is what i got
-bash-3.2# wget http://www.webservicesx.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WDSL
--2011-07-02 23:23:42-- http://www.webservicesx.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WDSL

Localhost and external IP for web services?

I've developed a web service using NetBean5.5 (JAX-WS 2.0) and deployed it to Tomcat 5.5. To access the WSDL and XSD I use the following URLs respectively (where SERVER and PORT is the server name and port on our local network):
http://SERVER:PORT/SampleWS/SampleService?wsdl
http://SERVER:PORT/SampleWS/SampleService?xsd=1
However, for external customers to access this they use an IP mapped to SERVER:PORT by our sys admin.
They can successfully access the WSDL using this external IP in the above URL but the schemaLocation port binding elements still refer to the local machine name and port. This means they cannot execute calls on the web service.
How do I get round this? Is this a Tomcat config setting? Or can something be done on the JAX-WS side such as dynamically generate the URLs within the WSDL?
Any help would be much appreciated.

This is the exact problem I've been trying to find a solution to.
By default I create a web service a a standard class in my war project using the @WebService annotation.
When it gets deployed and I look at the WSDL it has a schemaLocation listed that cannot be reached by clients (a hostname that is only valid on that box). In one case its localhost.localdomain and in another case it is just some name that cannot be found via dns (it probably has an entry in the host file). I'm not really in a position for changes to be made to those boxes, but I need to deploy web services to them and be able to create clients that can talk to them.
In either case I get an error (with localhost.localdomain) I often get a connection refused as it is pointing to the client's machine which doesn't have the web services running. In the case of the server name it is a host not found.
I tried this with JAX-WS 2.1 and it seems to work fine, but I think I'm going to be stuck with 2.0 and sjsas 9.0 u1 p1.
How can I fix this in the war application? Can I do this via annotations? Is there info about a deployment descriptor? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Geoff

This isn't a straight FORM Post as in the http binding support in WSDL. It posts
a soap message.
It's apparent that Workshop supports form-post and form-get.
But I dont see how it is done with straight WebLogic webservices. Does WebLogic
server read the web-services.xml or the WSDL file? I dont see a way to put in
http-post binding in the former and in the latter it seems to be ignored.
Can someone clarify.

the browser. It even allows you to invoke service methods
with complex type arguments (.Net only supports primitive
types) and also to view the request and response soap
message for the invocation.

This might be a naive question, but according to the documentation,WL 7.0
does
not support http post/get bindings for web services. Thus, for meto
access a
web service, I need to write a "middle tier" of some sort (I used theautomatically
generated Java proxy code and JSP). All works fine, but it seems likeit
would
sure be nice to have HTML forms access web services without havingto
write a
middle tier.
NET does this and it is extremely useful - is there a reason that BEAchose not
to provide this feature? (e.g. is it architecturally unsound in anyway?
or is
there an easy way to simulate it?). Given some of the Web Workshoppositioning
re: ease of use and .NET comparison, this seems like an omission.
Any insights are greatly appreciated.
Enjoy,

PS - Here's the info from the documentation
Web Services Description Language (WSDL) 1.1 Specification
WSDL is an XML-based language that describes Web services. WSDL definesWeb services
as a set of endpoints operating on messages; these message containeither
message-style
or RPC-style information. The operations and messages are describedabstractly
in WSDL, and then bound to a concrete network protocol and messageformat
to define
an endpoint. Related concrete endpoints are combined into abstractendpoints (services).
WSDL is extensible to allow the description of endpoints and theirassociated
messages regardless of what message formats or network protocols areused
to communicate,
however, the only bindings described in the specification describehow to
use
WSDL in conjunction with SOAP 1.1, HTTP GET/POST, and MIME.
Note: WebLogic Server supports only SOAP 1.1 bindings.
The WSDL 1.1 Specification is available at http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl.
