Seeburger AS2 Adapter: "MDN not signed"

Dear all,
we just updated our test system from XI 3.0 to PI 7.1. Now we are facing a problem with our Seeburger AS2 Adapter.
I sent out a message via AS2 and get the follwing error message in Seeburger AS2 Monitor:
"MDN not signed"
In the Receiver Communication Channel I checked the Option "Sign MDN". In XI 3.0 this Scenario was working perfectly. So I contacted our communication partner and asked them if our AS2 message really contained a request for a signed MDN. Our commnucation partner confirmed and sent the MDN as text file to me. This text file shows that the MDN is signed. So it seems that the Seeburger AS2 adapter does not notice that the received MDN is a signed one. But why? Do you have an idea?
Just for testing purposes I unchecked the "Signe MDN" option. In this case the transmission finished successfully.
Who can help?
Thanks
Michael

Dear Vikrant,
many thanks for your reply. But I am not sure if we are really facing the same issue as you described it in your article.
Currently we have this situation:
When I send out a message the Seeburge Workbench provides only the following error message:
"MDN not signed"
Via the Recovery Monitor I can check the received MDN. Here I can see that the MDN is signed and positive.
In the Runtime Workbench I checked the following:
1. In the Message Monitor (Adapter engine) the message is in status "System Error". Here are the details:
Message could not be forwarded to the JCA adapter. Reason: Fatal exception: javax.resource.ResourceException: SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received., SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received.
Adapter Framework caught exception: Fatal exception: javax.resource.ResourceException: SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received., SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received.
Delivering the message to the application using connection AS2_http://seeburger.com/xi failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: javax.resource.ResourceException: Fatal exception: javax.resource.ResourceException: SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received., SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received..
2. The Communication Channel Monitor shows the following error messages:
Error type: REPORT_ERROR >> Error date: 12/14/10 12:02 PM >> Description: MDN not signed [12/14/10 12:02 PM]
Message processing failed. Cause: javax.resource.ResourceException: Fatal exception: javax.resource.ResourceException: SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received., SEEBURGER AS2: Negative synchron MDN received.
I do not understand why the MDN is recognized as negative and unsigned even if the plain text version of the MDN shows that it is signed and positive.
In your article you recommend to create a sender communication channel for MDN and a corresponding sender agreement. We already did that in XI 3.0 to forward the MDN as STATUS IDOC to SAP ECC.
Maybe you have an additional idea?
Thanks

MDN Not Signed Error

After updating a certificate in PI we are facing MDN not signed errors.
In Seeburger logs, I can see that the response MDN is signed.
However, Seeburger, doesn't find the signature and generates a negative MDN.
Unchecking the signature in the receiver AS2 channel fixes the problem.
This issue seems very similar to the following thread: Seeburger AS2 Adapter: "MDN not signed"
SAP PI Version : PI 7.11 SP12
Seeburger AS2 2.1.5
Original Certificate: 1024 bits
New Certificate: 2048 bits.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harsh

Hi Harsh,
Check the link mentioned in this blog Certificate and Troubleshooting - Guide for Seeburger - AS2 - Adapter by Stefan Hilpp
As mentioned here on Page 19, check the Signing Key in your Sender Agreement.
Maybe the signing key mentioned is wrong.

Client Auth and SSL with Seeburger AS2 adapter

Hello All,
We are using the Seeburger AS2 adapter in our landscape and I am in the process of setting the same up and have made quite some progress in all my issues.
and I hope that you will be able to help me out.
1. Server SSL on Receiver AS2 adapter
I am sending a message from XI using the Receiver AS2 adapter to my AS2 test tool using Server SSL.
This is working perfectly fine. In my AS2 adapter I have selected HTTPS as the protocol and the message goes via SSL to the target test tool, is processed and the MDN comes back to XI perfectly.
The issue here is :
Irrespective of what is provided in the Server Certificate ( Keystore) , the message goes to my target test tool. I even left this field blank with no certificate entry and still the SSL connection was established and the message went to the target system.
Is there no validation that XI does here? I am lost what is the use of this entry Server Certificate if XI blindly accepts all SSL connections.
I am using a Decentral Adapter Engine with LoadBalancer.
2. Client Auth on Receiver AS2 Adapter
I tried to perform Client Authentication by proving my Server's private key in the AS2 adapter. The corresponding public key is loaded in my partner's Keystore.
XI error's with the error "SSL handshake failed - Bad Certificate" .
I am not sure why XI is erroring out here and I have a feeling that I have misunderstood the use of the fields in the AS2 adapter,
Server Certificate ( Keystore) and Private Key for Client Authentication.
Has anyone tried this? If further details are needed, I will be able to furnish the same.
Regards,
Bhavesh

Hello Jens,
Thanks for your reply.
1. The Encryption and Signature part of the Interface is working absolutely fine and I use the same concept highlighted by you - The Sender always signs the message with his private key and encrypts with message with the partner's public key in the corresponding agreement.
2. Server SSL is also working perfectly fine, i.e, when XI initiates the connection the SSL connection is established to the partner.
3. Mutual Auth was the issue where I was getting the bad certificate issue.
To investigate further I moved the same setup to my Central Adapter Engine and all the issues I had described above seem to have vanished and things work exactly as I was expecting, ie.
The field : Server Certificate (Keystore) is used to provide the Target System's Server SSL's public Certificate.
The field : Private Key for Client Authentication is used where XI provides its own Server SSL's private key for Mutual / Client Authentication.
The problem seems to be with my Decentral Adapter engine and not my central adapter engine and so I guess,
1. I either have the incorrect certificates on my Decentral Adapter Engine.
2. I also have 2 instances of a Decentral Adapter Engine with a Webdispatcher and so maybe the 2 Visual Admin's of the 2 Decentral AE are inconsistent.
3. Maybe it was just a long day and I did something wrong
Will investigate further for the root cause but I am glad that my concepts remain intact and things do work as I expected them to work.
A blog on all this is on the cards sometime soon.
Cheers,
Bhavesh

Seeburger AS2 - Negative MDN response.

Hi ,
I created a self-signed certificate (signing & encryption) in cyclone and uploaded it in XI. I passed some messages via cyclone to Seeburger AS2 adapter which is being configured in SAP XI.
The payload was delivered from cyclone end but the receipt (MDN) obtained was a negative response.
Error Message: Receipt response: Receiver reported that the signing certificate is not trusted
is it possible in XI (configuration) to make the certificate trusted?
Help needed!

Hi,
To avoid this error you need to follow the below steps.
1. Upload the Cyclone certificate in the Visual Admin. Path of the certificate is TRUSTED\XXX
2. If SAP XI is also encrypting messages with any certificate then you need to upload the same in Visual Admin in path TRUSTED\service_ssl\XXX
3. Provide the same path in Security Settings of the Sender/ Receiver Aggrement
Cheers!

AS2 asnyc MDN not working

Hi,
I have setup my config in SeeBurger AS2 adapter in SAP PI 7.11 to send a file to our trading partner via AS2-HTTPS with async MDN requested. I got the an error in seeburger message monitoring : "Sent AS2 message successfully to partner - waiting now for asynchrone MDN"
We are still not able to received the async MDN from our partner. Wonder if anyone of here had encountered similar problem before? Please share your experience.
My config:
1. HTTPS-AS2
2. Signed Msg
3. Encrypted Msg
4. Request async MDN (Not signed) by provided our HTTPS AS2 URL in receipt delivery address, no MDN time out.
5. Create virtual sender aggrement for MDN report with accepting same message title with AS2 receiver aggrement message titile.
*Tested the same receiver agreement config with No MDN and Synchronous MDN. All successfully.
Thanks!
SP

Hi,
We are also facing the same problem. But I want to tell you few points which you need to make sure....
virtual party and communication component that you've used in Sender agreement of Reports channel shouldbe same as that of party & component used in Header mapping of actual receiver agreement. And, there should not be more than two sender agreements for MDN reports channel for same set of sender and receiver party.
One request from my side is... please let me know if your issue got resolved so that it'll be helpful for me too.

Priyanka

How to deal Inhouse files using Seeburger AS2 adapter...!!!

Hi all,
Has anyone managed to configure the Seeburger AS2 adapter for XI successfully to process multiple inbound message types.
We have an issue here with inbound messages being received by the AS2 adapter. We currently have it configured for inbound deliveries(Which deals with EDI files) which is working fine. The issue is that we would now like to send other messages as well. It seems the AS2 adapter only looks at the sender/receiver party combination to determine the correct sender agreement, but does not look at the message type which is a limitation. I have heard mention of a splitter module which can be used to distinguish between different messages and pass them to the correct sender agreement for processing, information on this is thin on the ground to non existent.
I have few custom Inhouse files where i need to recieve through AS2 adapter.
I need to differentiate the messages hitting to my communication channel.
ex:
1st message will be having
HDR PICKS
2nd message will be having
HDR PURCH
so based on the second field which has "PICKS" or "PURCH" , i need to pass the message to run the corresponding map.
How i need to configure to acheive these kind of custom Inhouse files through AS2 adapter??
Do i need to use splitter for these as well?? If yes how i need to use?
Is there any setting we can make at Sender AS2 adapter to differentiate each message??
Waiting for the answers.
Kindly reply if anyone knows.
Thanks&Regards
Seema.

Hi,
i have setup a scenario with edifact (different message types) using as2.
first i had to create a mapping using bic.
edifact_xxxx
in: edifact_service
out: functional acknowledgement.
in the mapping code i adjusted the called mapping, standard it will use see* changed it to e2x* (custom mapping)
in your case using flatfiles maybe you should take a look at the VDA structure, these files are also defined under inhouse.
when you define a input file adapter are you getting a classifier message?
like
<classifier><type>Edifact</type><classifierMappingID>XXXX</classifierMappingID><encoding>US-ASCII</encoding><additionalIdentifier></additionalIdentifier></classifier>

Content based receiver determination with Seeburger AS2 adapter

We are planning to use the Seeburger AS2 adapter on our XI 3.0 installation to post custom XML documents to XI from external business partners. The problem we have is to do the receiver and interface determination based on the xml message type that is submitted. How can we identify what is the name of the root xml node (which is representing the message type that was submitted to us) during the receiver determination and specify conditions for the receiver determination based on this? We can not use the Seeburger Classifier module here as this is only determining the mapping name to be used for an EDI conversion but can not handle any type of XML message.

Rudy,
I think the easiest way would still be the ReceiverDetermination and creating an XSD that contains the main important TAGs from the different messages.
That should allow you to test for the existing of certain important TAGs or check the value of some TAGS.
I don´t know about aedaptive-adapters, but I don´t think that they are Drummond-Certified. Check out...
http://www.drummondgroup.com/html-v2/as2-companies.html
Without this certification, a lot of your partners might not allow you to use this adapter if you wanna make AS2 with them.
Greetings
Stefan

AS2 system integration without using Seeburger AS2 adapter

Hi, All:
One of business partner need to have AS2 transport protocol to communicate with, my question is, can we integrate with business partner without going Seeburger AS2 adapter ?
Thanks

I think that is not possible. If it were, we wouldn't need anymore the Seeburger adapter and could write our own modules...

Seeburger AS2 Adapter sending message error

I have configured a FAck scenario as described by the Seeburger Manual and am testing a AS2 messaging scenario with a vendor (basically the inbound EDI message is passed to the Seeburger splitter to create a new message for the inbound order, and then the existing payload is mapped to a Funcational Acknowledgement and sent back to the vendor). I receive the message fine and the message split to create the order works fine, however when the FAck is passed to the AS2 receiver adapter (for transmission to the 3rd party) I get the following error:
LOCATION [null, null, 91fcf4f0-5223-11dd-9c8d-5cd90a641602] >> ERROR TYPE [, COMPONENT_ERROR, not retryable, not fatal]] >> DESCRIPTION [AS2 Adapter failure >> MID
MID <[email protected]22.2> already exists. - Duplicate will not be sent [LOC: com.seeburger.as2.component.AS2Client.storeMID]

Cause: javax.resource.ResourceException: Fatal exception: com.sap.aii.af.ra.cci.XIDeliveryException: SEEBURGER AS2: AS2 Adapter failure # MID <[email protected]22.2> already exists. - Duplicate will not be sent, SEEBURGER AS2: AS2 Adapter failure # MID <[email protected]22.2> already exists. - Duplicate will not be sent
I'm not sure where the "duplicate" message comes from as this message definitely has not been sent before.
If I extract the same inbound message from the payload and pass it in using a file adapter (rather than the AS2 sender adapter) then the functional acknowledgement is created and transmitted to the vendor without any issues ...
Has anyone who has had some experience with the Seeburger AS2 adapter got any possible suggestions for resolving this issue?
Regards,
Jason

Download SEEBURGER AS2 Adapter

Hi All,
I would appreciate if you could let me know, from where I could download the SEEBURGER AS2 adapter which will be compatible to PI 7.10 EhP1?
Regards,
Ramanathan EKAMBARAM

Hi Hemant,
We have it installed on our current PI 7.0 environment and have the necessary license. However, when I look into Installations and Upgrades - Entry by Application Group - Adapters - Seeburger - XI-A GENERIC EDI BY SEEB., I could see only NW71-PI-A GEN SEEB 2.1 and not SEEBURGER AS2.
Let me know, if SEEBURGER AS2. contains NW71-PI-A GEN SEEB 2.1.

Seeburger AS2 Adapter scenario ?

Hi Frnds,
I want See Burger ,AS2 Adapter end to end scenario with screen shots, If anybody know link or having end to end scenario pls share to me its too urgent.

Hi ,
Ravi, I am also looking for seeburger scenario, i got information from forum, i providing info, i hope it will give some idea... if its not excuse me....
The SEEBURGER FTP/VAN Adapter is responsible for transmitting files according to the File Transfer Protocol, with the particular support of various VANs. This protocol was installed as a user gateway protocol by several of the largest VAN providers, such as IBM, GE and Sterling IIB and Sterling Commerce.
The FTP/VAN adapter must be configured in the configuration part of the Integration Builder. The adapter is based on the Adapter Framework and is executed by the SAP J2EE Adapter Engine.
The FTP/VAN Adapter supports the following protocols:
IBMIE VAN, all report options.
GEIS (GeMarkIII) and GeMark3000, all report options, report file is only extracted, if needed.
EXITE (ECODEX), EDIFACT file processing, DISPATCHED reports.
Sterling Commerce and Sterling IIB.
MCI EDI*Net.
The following FTP options are supported:
SSL, both IMPLICIT and AUTH_TLS support, server authentication.
All popular FTP proxy types like: USERWL, USERWOL, SITEWL, OPENWOL.
Active and Passive connection modes.
"KeepAlive" feature.
Binary, ASCII and custom transfer types.
Seeburger adapters like OFTPS,AS2,X400 are used for B2B scenario where the file is coming through WAn network or mailbox. As XI dont have capability to convert the EDIFACT format file to XML the same work will be done by seeburger adapters.
The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an any-to-any format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex, high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC data sources.
Supported EDI formats include:
ANSI
EDIFACT
INHOUSE
IDOC
XML Schema
XML DTD
CSV
Delimited Data
positional data
SWIFT
EANCOM
and many more.
See for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module you need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.
AS2 vs OFTPS:

Seeburger AS2 Adapter - How to extract copy of file sent out ?

Hi Experts,
The scenario is SAP R/3 sends idoc to PI. PI converts this into a flat file and sends to Trading Partner through Seeburger AS2 adapter.
We can trace the message content in XML format within PI using SXMB_MONI or RWB. How to extract a copy of the Flat file converted by AS2 adapter and sent to Trading Partner ?
Thanks very much for you help !
Thanks,
Rukmani

>>Was hoping for a method that does not need additional coding.
None of the two methods I suggest require coding. First method just require adding 1 line in module config in your communication channel. Second method requires one addition config in receiver determination and agreements.
>>is there a way to get the converted message content from SeeBurger Workbench even for successful messages ?
No. If you have purchased Message Tracking, then you could configure that for your scenarios to view payloads. However, this method will definitely need some coding.

SEEBURGER AS2 Adapter Security

Hello,
I am running into an issue on the install of the SEEBURGER AS2 Adapter. We currently have other AS2 communication software in place, which are in our DMZ for security purposes. However, we do not want to put our SAP XI server in the DMZ because we would like it more protected. We are getting around this problem by using a reverse proxy scenario to get it through our firewall.
Is there a more effecient way to install the SEEBURGER AS2 adapter without exposing the entire SAP XI server to the DMZ?
Thank you, any help or advice would be appreciated.

Hi Carley,
I will tell you something about Seeburger Adapters in detail, Just see if it helps...
Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.
These transformed EDI-XML messages are then converted to EDI specific format using the Seeburger's BIC(Business Integration Converter)adapter. In addition, Seeburger provides adapters like AS2,FTP(EDI specific) and so on to route these EDI messages to external EDI Partners.
Seeburger EDI Adapter leverages SAP XI's Adapter Framework. This Adapter is used to perform conversion between EDI and XML format. It also provides some canned EDI layouts and the ability to build your own. It is used to transfer the EDI message via HTTP or AS2 protocols.
The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to do the following:
1. define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
2. using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
3. create a one to one mapping between input en output.
4. export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
5. generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.
Please go through the following links which clearly explains what you want and it also helps you in understanding the same in depth:

Seeburger AS2 Adapter implementation in PI 7.1

HI Experts,
We have seen lot of implemetation of seeburger adapters in PI 7.0 but didnt got any chance to look ahead for any documents related to seeburger AS2 adapter implementation in PI 7.1 .
Request if you can please guide or provide some hands on documents which can give the clear overview of how to configure AS2 adapter in PI 7.1 and its parameters.
Thanks & Regards,

Regarding Seeburger AS2 Adapter

Hi,
Wheni go thru my adapters list i didn't find Seeburger AS2 adapter in the list, but my client wants to use the Seeburger AS2 adapter for their scenario's. What should i do in order use the Seeburger AS2 adapter. Is it a third party adapter? do we need to get any license from SAP to use this adapter. Or is there any equivalent adapter available in XI for seeburger AS2 adapter. Kindly suggest
Regards,
Venkat

Hi,
Yes your understanding is right. Normally for B2B the customer sends data over WAN or through Mailbox and ususally the data is encrypted using digital certificate for security reasons.
For B2B the data is send in EDI format (EDIFACT,TRADACOM,INHOUSE and many more) and the seeburger adapters like AS2,X400,OFTPS are used to convert the EDI format to XML and viceversa..
