Consuming a CAF Web Service in an automated activity

Hi
I'm trying to import a WSDL that points to a custom service so it can be used within an automated activity within my BPM. I am importing the WSDL using the Remote Location option and am entering the WSDL. It then appears to import with no issues but has a warning about not being able to validate the WSDL. However, I can't then see the newly imported WSDL in the list of available interfaces for the automated activity. I've imported other WSDL's and I can see those. Can anyone provide any pointers?

Hi,
can you open the eclipse error log and post any errors you find there?
Regards,
Christian

How to consume the Abap web service in Java web-dynpro

Hi Everyone,
I want to consume ABAP web service in java web dynpro.
so when i tried to create model in java web-dynpro, it gave me an error message saying "Invalid WSDL or WSDL not found".
i think this error message is because, to access the WSDL of abap web-service, we need username and password, but the dialog box in java web-dynpro is not programmed to take username and password from us and send it to the server to get the WSDL.
i came to this conclusion because i was able to successfully test my abap web-service in java portal. the java portal asked me the username and password to open the WSDL.
So, please help me to consume the abap web service in java web-dynpro.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Vikas

Hi Vikas ,
while creating a model in web-dynpro try to use the "import web service model" option and if you are using local server choose the local server option so that you can get the available web services which are in server, select one among them and continue you process.I think this is the some what easy way .
If you want use the URL for wsdl better to once test the available service in server and copy that WSDL URL and paste over WSDL textbox.
I think this is pretty help ful to you

Timeout when consuming a SOAP web service

Hello,
I'm quite new to Labview and I'm trying to consume a SOAP web service created using a very simple WCF example, but I keep on getting a WebException because of a timeout.
The web service has been created using the example from the WCF getting started tutotial (to keep things simple) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms734712.aspx
You'll find my .Net solution attached to this message. (You'll have to be administrator to run the service though).
I have used the import web service tool in Labview to create the VI to connect to the web service and all went fine, it created the VI correctly. You'll find the created VI also attached to this message.
Then, I'm trying to create a very simple VI to call the webservice and put the return value inside a numeric indicator. Unfortunately, when I run this VI it crashes with a WebException because of a timeout.
If I run the .Net client, everything goes fine, and if I go to the web service address with a browser, I get the service website, so I know that the server is registered correctly, only Labview can't connect to it for an unknown reason. Everything is setup to connect through localhost:8000, so it can't really be a network problem, I've tried disabling the Windows firewall to see if that was the problem, but it persists.
I've also tried to do something similar using the CDYNE web service, like in the example http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4728/en/, and it works perfectly.
Does anybody have an idea about what could be the issue?
Regards.

OK, I found the problem myself, it was a problem with the configuration of the WCF service, I was missing the ServiceMetadata endpoint.
For reference, if somebody stumbles upon the same issue as I had, here's a service configuration that works with Labview (using .Net >=4.0)
 <system.serviceModel>
 <behaviors>
 <serviceBehaviors>
 <behavior name="">
 <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
 <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
 </behavior>
 </serviceBehaviors>
 </behaviors>
 <protocolMapping>
 <add scheme="http" binding="basicHttpBinding" />
 </protocolMapping>
 </system.serviceModel>
And here's how to create and run the service host.
using (ServiceHost selfHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(Calculator), new Uri("http://localhost:8000/Calculator")))
 try
 selfHost.Open();
 Console.ReadLine();
 selfHost.Close();
 catch (CommunicationException e)
 selfHost.Abort();
 throw;

Consuming an External Web Service using HTTPS and WS Security

Hello everyone,
I'm having a problem setting the security information in a SOAP header using a generated ABAP Client Proxy to consume an external web service that requires a User ID and Password in the Header section of the SOAP message. I need to use HTTPS. I'm on a WAS 7.01 SP08 system so from my readings, SAP is supposed to be able to add the username and password into the header section of the message. I can't seem to get SAP to add this information added to the header.
Here are the steps that I have taken to set the security values.
1) Created the client proxy from the WSDL in SE80. Basic Authentication on the Configuration tab was turned on automatically.
Note, Transport Security is set to None. I cannot change it.
2) Created an outbound set user name profile in transaction WSPROFILE with the appropriate username and password.
3) Added the profile to the default port in transaction LPCONFIG as an outbound under the WS Security section of the screen.
When I called the external Web Service, I got back the following error message:
com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity.SoapSecurityException: WSEC5509E: A security token whose type is [http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#UsernameToken] is required.
So, after reading through this Forum, I saw that I needed to use the SOAMANAGER. I set up a Proxy in the SOAMANAGER and manually created the Logical Port. This was the only way I could figure out how to set the Authentication Settings in the Logical Port to "User ID / Password". I then entered the User ID and Password.
However, I am still getting the same error message. I feel I am close but missing some small configuration to tell SAP to use WS Security with a Username token.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Stephen

I had this error again so I thought I would post my solution:
The issue is SAP needs to know the certificates being used by the web site being called. These certificates are automatically installed in your browser but need to be manually installed in SAP. This is what I did:
How to find/install new certificates
Make sure you run Internet Explorer as an Administrator so you can export the certificates
Go to the web site that SAP is trying to call in Internet Explorer
Double click on the lock in the address bar
View certificates
Find the certificates that are being used
Tools --> Internet Options --> Content --> Certificates
Click on the “Trusted Root Certification Authorities” tab
Find the certificate identified in step iii
Export as a CER certificate
Click on the “Intermediate Certification Authorities” tab
Find the certificate identified in step iii
Export as a CER certificate
Go to STRUST in SAP
Import the Certificates in the “Anonymous” or “Standard” SSL client

Help: consuming an external web service with user name token

Hello Together!
I need to consume an external web service secured with WS-UserNameToken. The way, how did I do it:
1. I generated a web service consumer (proxy) in SE80 from the wsdl file
2. I created logical port for the consumer in SOAMANAGER
3. I created security profile in WSSPROFILE with telpmate SET_USERNAME and assigned it to consumer operation in LPCONFIG (I use LPCONFIG, because I didn't find any way to do it in SOAMANAGER)
3. I called the web service and got the error back: session token is missing or invalid or has inspired
My questions are:
1. is this possible to consume an external webservice in SAP, which is secured with WS-Usernametoken?
2. do I need therefore any settings in java stack? do I need java stack in general?
3. Is this any way to configure the consumer without writing programs, which set header parameter manually?
4. if the answer on the third question is no, do you have any examples, how to implement session management in report? (I mean sending session id and checking the validaty of id)
I appriciate any help of you!
best regards Anna

Hi,
it should be possible to use WS-UserNameToken for consuming web service. It should be available on AS BAP 7.0 and higher. This profile should be under category Document authentication. You can try to dump a message send from SAP to see what is going out of SAP. This should be supported in ABAP so you don't need a Java stack. What exactly do you want to configure? Do you want to just set user name and password for that service which will be used for any calls of that proxy?
Cheers

Consume an external web service with an ABAP proxy

Hello,
I'm working on creating an ABAP Proxy to consume my first web service. In searching SCN I haven't found a comprehensive list of steps to complete the process, but I have found information on generating a proxy from a WSDL and creating a logical port.
My first issue arises when I go to SPROXY to generate a proxy from a WSDL, I see the message 'Local objects only (No Connection to ESR)', and I have no ability to 'create'. The Enterprise Service Repository seems to be the new name for the Integration Repository, if that helps. Do I need the ESR installed to create a proxy?
A follow-on question, assuming I do need the ESR, would be what do I do with it? It appears to serve the purpose of design for interfaces, messages, and mapping, but I thought that happened when I created a proxy in SPROXY.
We're on ECC 6.0, with a 702 / 0007 basis release. I appreciate and light you can shed on the topic.
Thanks

ESR is part of the PI system, and it is where all interfaces details are stored.You could create an ABAP Proxy from a pre-defined WDSL yet stored in PI as part of some communication, but you can also import directly a WSDL from a local file or even from a URL.
ABAP proxy generates a proxy class and a set of abap structures , fields and data elements. Simply by filling the data and call a method in the proxy class (depends of syncrhonization a different method name) you can consume your service. No PI is needed if you use the local option.
There is a very good Tutorial from Thomas Jung. I'll try to find it.

How to Trigger CAF web services from java Job schedulers?

Hi Experts,
I am in need of calling CAF based web services from custom Job scheduler.
Could you please provide your idea and input if anyway we can call such web service by java api in custom jobs development?
Thing is that we have CAF BO which hold around 1 million record (master data) and based on approval scenario (developed in WDJ apps) we will have to move this record to another business object for further manipulation?
Hence due to huge number of record in BO, I would like to automate this activity by calling Jobs from WDJ apps and then Job will trigger the CAF web service which would create record into the BO object.
Please share your idea and let me if it can be achievable by java apis to trigger Jobs by WDJ apps & webservice by jobs?
Thanks & Regards,
Pankaj

Consuming an external web service with WAS 6.40

Hi all,
I know this thread isnt 100% XI forum related, my apologies for that. However, I believe somebody here has experience with this subject.
Im trying to consume an external web service through WAS 6.40 with se80. When I try to create my proxy object package Choose Create > Enterprise Service / Web Service > Proxy Object > URL type, I receive an error message (SPRX084) -> During proxy generation, an interface description in WSDL format is fetched from the integration builder or from another source and interpreted. This WSDL document must describe the whole interface correctly.
I dont have sure, but it seams something within WSDL object/element. Nevertheless, these external web services are working well with other third party client applications, why SAP WAS cant take this WSDL?
Anyone has faced an issue like this one?
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo.

Hi,
some tools do not generate WSDLs correcty (not with all the standards
or with obsolete parts) and then in ABAP you cannot generate a proxy from it
you should be able to see the some more details in disgnosis section
sometimes you just have to change one or two things in the WSDL
and it will be ok for WAS but you need to find the exect cause
of the error - it can be done by debugging

Hi Ramesh ,
Enterprise Single Sign on service is used to store the receive and send port configurations of BizTalk. The error comes usually if your SSO server is not started or the SSO service is not running on the SSO server. Login to the SSO server (it is same where
BTS is installed in a single server environment) and check the service if it is running or not from the services manager. You can type services.msc on the run command to access the services manager console. View the Enterprise Single Sign on status that it
is started or not. If it is stopped start the service.
If you dont find SSO service i think than you need to reconfigure your BizTalk Environment.
Remember the service depends upon SQL Server check that the SQL Server services are running fine or not. Here is a link to explain more about SSO

Error accessing Web Services afer a Push Activation

I am facing a strange problem when I try to access a web service after my Midlet is activated via Push Registry: when the stub is trying to invoke the web service, the device (the Wtk 2.2 emulator) asks the permission to use the airtime Internet and, after I press Yes, it does nothing.
When I try to invoke the web service via an user activated Midlet, this problem does not exist and the connection to the web service is established.
I'm using Sun Wtk 2.2, sun Web Services API and the Push Registry. The target devices will work on CLDC 1.1 and MIDP 2.0.
Jorge

Weblogic does not have any such tool to call the web service hosted on remote machine.
However in order to drill down the issue, you can create a standalone class and try to access the remote web service from the same machine where the WLS is installed and the application is deployed.
If the standalone class can access the web service then this is the issue with the WLS configuration for sure.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Consuming a standard web service in process composer

Hi,
I want to consume a web service for ex: create purchase requisition available on es workplace from process composer. I have tried to use logical destination created from nwa->SOA Management -> Destination Template Management and provided the WSDL and ABAP system details including the login credentials for user authentication. But this is not working. Can someone help me out with this?
Thanks,
Pooja

1) create a new service interface in process composer by importing the WSDL (Remote location/File System).
2) create destination template at NWA -> SOA Management -> Technical Configuration -> Destination Template Management. Assign the destination type (WSDL), name, URL, host, system, username, password etc
3) create an automated task, assign the created destination/service interface accordingly.
Optionally, for step 1), you may import your web service to the service registry via the WSDL URL and create the new service interface by importing it via service registry. Then, in the step 2, use the destination type (Service Registry).
Hope it helps.

How to consume Google REST web service

Dear All,
I have a task to embed Google Maps into web dynpro and/or CRM WebUI.
There is no problem with embedding only map with route on it, but I need also calculated distance.
In WebDynpro I've just created iFrame CHIP component which targets: http://maps.google.pl/maps?output=embed and two CHIPS with import parameters to give source and destination address. Route is calculated and drawn.
Problem is with the distance, because the only way is to consume google web service (which is not SOAP, so I can't use service consumer). It must be something like web request.
URL which I need to access is:
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/xml?&mode=driving&sensor=false&origins=Warsaw&destinations=Hamburg
or
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json?&mode=driving&sensor=false&origins=Warsaw&destinations=Hamburg
where origins and destinations must be connected with import CHIPS. How to access such service in a proper way?
Second thing is that I have to parse response.. it could be XML or JSON format. I just need summary distance. Any idea?
Btw - I'm quite fresh with WebDynpro and WebUI, so I'm looking for good 'HOW TO' guide. Can you recommend something which is good to start with?
thanks in advance
