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

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.

Importing external web service with SSL certificate security

Hello,
I'm trying to import an external web service (that resides in another server, independent of ours). However, right after I enter the WSDL in the import window I get the following error in the NWDS:

Has anyone ever consumed an external web service with SSL certificate security? How do you import this in your Web Dynpro project?
Cheers!

Hi Alain,
I just checked on a newer NW environment (NW 7.2) and was presented an empty list as well... It seems the mapping procedure I described is deprecated since NW 7.11, and the modeled CAF application service is already exposed as a web service.
You may want to have a look at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711/helpdata/en/43/f173947bbb025be10000000a1553f7/content.htm or http://scn.sap.com/message/7852996 for more info

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
Save

Issue with calling external web service with authentication details ...

Hi,

Accessing external web service with non-constant URL

Hello, all
I am looking in the documentation on accessing external web services, but either I am looking in the wrong place, or the documentatoin is lacking info.
My clients have several web services in the local network (regular services, not DB-based), the have the same interface, but different URL's.
Versions of the DB are 11, 12, and 16.
First of all, I do not see in the specs an option for a non-hardcoded URL. The logic says that this has to be possible, but I cannot find it.
Second, I need to see an example of accessing an XML or JSon based service, I cannot find it in the specs either.
Can anyone point me to a document with examples?
Thank you
Arcady

The following will call a web service with whatever URL you pass in as the argument "myurl". I think that is what you are looking for.
CREATE PROCEDURE cli_test2( myurl LONG VARCHAR )
RESULT( httpheaders long varchar, httpvalues long varchars
URL '!myurl'
To deal with the resulting data in XML, use the OPENXML() function.
eg. To turn an XML list of employees that looks like this:
<root>
<row EmployeeID="102" Surname="Whitney" GivenName="Fran" StartDate="1984-08-28"/>

into a table of results, you would do this (where xmlgetemplist() is the web service call):
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE xmlgetemplist() RESULT( httpheader long varchar, httpbody long varchar)
URL 'http://localhost/demo/xmlEmployeeList'
TYPE 'HTTP:GET';
create variable res long varchar;
-- call the web service
select httpbody into res from xmlgetemplist() where httpheader = 'Body'
-- extract the XML elements into a SQL result set
select * from openXML( res, '/root/row' ) WITH ( EmployeeID INT '@EmployeeID',
 GivenName CHAR(20) '@GivenName',
 Surname CHAR(20) '@Surname',
 PhoneNumber CHAR(10) '@Phone');
To deal with the resulting data in JSON, use the sp_parse_json() procedure.
eg.
To turn a JSON formatted list of employees that looks like this:
"EmployeeID": 102,
"Surname": "Whitney",
"GivenName": "Fran",
"StartDate": "1984-08-28",
"TerminationDate": null
into a table of results, you would do this (where jsongetemplist() is the web service call):
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE jsongetemplist() RESULT( httpheader long varchar, httpbody long varchar)
URL 'http://localhost/demo/jsonEmployeeList'
TYPE 'HTTP:GET';
create variable foo long varchar;
--call the webservice
select httpbody into foo from jsongetemplist() where httpheader = 'Body';
--turn the json result into a structured array of data
-- this step is required because of less structured nature of JSON
call sp_parse_json( 'output_array', foo);
--extract the JSON elements from the output array into a SQL result set
SELECT output_array[[row_num]].EmployeeID as EmployeeID,
 output_array[[row_num]].SurName as SurName,
 output_array[[row_num]].GivenName as GivenName,
 output_array[[row_num]].StartDate as StartDate,
 output_array[[row_num]].TerminationDate as EndDate

Consuming and Providing Web Service with JD Edwards ERP system

Hi,
I would like to create web services with c++ or java OR any other easier way .
I need to use that web services to use in Share point to interact with JD Edwards ERP system .
Pls Note : Since not having license for JD Edwards, I need to create and call from Sharepoint Web service to JD edwards.
and not from JD edwards web service.
Could anybody guide me in this.
Thanks in advance.

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
Save
RESTART the ICM via t-code SMICM <-- Critical!!!

Pointers regarding consuming a external web-service from SAP

Hi All,
I am trying to consume a web-service from an external system using a URL.
Our SAP system version is 4.7. I have created a custom program and calling up the web service using HTTP POST method.
For this I referred the following weblog.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/847. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
I modified the program according to my requirements and called the web service, but I am facing certain issues.
1. The if_http_client->send method executed successfully (sy-subrc eq 0). But the next call to the method
if_http_client->receive the program shows error.The message is very long one and I am not able to see it fully in debugging mode.
Please help me with the following questions.
1. Is there any way I can read the message returned from the web-service to see what the error was? In 4.7 we don't have the recording function as in 6.0.
2. I have disable the login prompt by calling if_http_client->propertytype_logon_popup = http_client->co_disabled.
If I don't do that it shows me a SAP Web AS login screen. Shouldn't it show me the standard http login screen?
3.In that login screen if I provide my ID password it returns the following message
'Business Server Page (BSP) ErrorBSPexception:Access to URL :<Server>:<80>/ORABPEL/DEFAULT/READDATA1/1.0 is forbidden'
Any pointers what does it mean?
4. This method seems a very lengthy process to me. Is there any other approach to this issue?
TIA
Barada.

The error for Authorization was because of the HTTP proxy settings for the system.
I configured the proxy settings in the transaction SICF->Goto->Http Proxy and then the program worked fine.
Regards
Barada

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

Consuming external Web Service in portal application:Error URL.getProtocol

Hello!
I implemented a portal application which consums a external Web Service with NWDS 7.2.
The Webservice access works fine when I test it in a Java-Main Class.
If I deploy the application in a portal then I get the error:
java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method java.net.URL.getProtocol() of an object loaded from local variable 'tmpUrl'
It seems that my service_client-class has the problem to call the wsdl if the application is in portal:
static {
    java.net.URL url = null;
    try {
               java.net.URL tmpUrl = SERVICEClient.class.getClassLoader().getResource
              ("wsdl/com/sap/test/SERVICE.wsdl");
              url = new java.net.URL(tmpUrl.getProtocol(), tmpUrl.getHost(), tmpUrl.getPort(), tmpUrl.getFile());
    } catch (java.net.MalformedURLException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
Can anybody help me?
Thanks, Thomas

Hello Thomas,
I got the same error. In my case I used an Enterprise Application Project for the developement of my Portal Service. The portal service itself was calling an external webservice.
The reason in my case lies behind the generation of the EAR-File with the NetWeaver Developer Studio). Inside the generated EAR-File the WSDL-File was always missing. In consequence "
java.net.URL tmpUrl = SERVICEClient.class.getClassLoader().getResource
              ("wsdl/com/sap/test/SERVICE.wsdl");" is always "NULL".
and "tmpUrl.getProtocol()" leads to the NullPointerException.
So I copied my wsdl-folder / package with the wsdl-file inside the {application}.ear / {application}.war / WEB-INF / private / lib / {application}.jar and everything works fine:-)
Regards
Steffen
PS: Today I found a better way without copying the wsdl-file into the EAR-File. I just didn't use the Enterprise Application Project for the developement of portal services anymore. If you look inside the generated EAR-File, you can see, that you can develop the portal service also by using a simple Dynamic Web Project wrapped by an Enterprise Application Project:-)
(Rem.: Don't miss the portalapp.xml deployment descriptor).
If you deploy the Enterprise Project the WSDL-File is always inside the generated EAR-File :-)

Consume External Web Service (WSDL) in ABAP (Release 700) - Proxy Error

Hi All,
Have a requirement to Consume an External Web Service in ABAP. We have the WSDL for Ext. Web Service.
Did some research and came across the link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/69/8a1e9553dc4baba6026a3db510cadb/content.htm
First tried to generate a 'Consumer Proxy'. Since external WSDL, used SE80 to generate the Consumer Proxy.
But finally got Error Msg 'Incorrect value: XSD name space not available'! Could you please let me know:
1) What is causing this error and how to rectify it?
2) Is it possible to view the Proxy that I had created (which is in error)? is there a Proxy Editor?

Hy Brad, I got the same error by trying to generate a 'Consumer Proxy' from a external WSDL. u2019Incorrect value: XSD name space not available'. I have solved it in this way: The report RSSIDL_DESERIALIZE_DEMO has the same check routines as the R3-Proxy Generator. I debugged this report using a saved external WSDL and compared it with using a saved WSDL (Server) generated under /nse80.
-> In the WSDL, in part message the "type" isnu2019t allowed, because the dezerialization is done already.

Biztalk 2010 - Consume Web Service with Certificate

Hi
I have to consume a java web service with Biztalk that requires authentication via a client certificate. Until now I have not been able to consume any web service where any kind of authentication was needed. Simple web services without authentication are
no problem. Also using SoapUI works perfectly fine.
I am generating the XSDs and the port binding with the WCF wizard in VS2010. I've read several comments that it's not possible to consume web services with the WCF-WSHttp adapter when the message format should be SOAP 1.1. Therefore I'm trying with the WCF-BasicHttp
and WCF-Custom adapters, but I did not suceed in receiving a positive response yet.
The web service I want to consume uses a client certificate (with a private key) and two root certificates. When I use the BasicHttp adapter I choose either 'Transport' or 'TransportWithMessageCredential' but none of them work. I also have to supply a client
and a service certificate. I always use the one with the private key for the client but I'm not sure which one I have to use for the service. Is there a possibility that I have to provide both root certificates and if so, how can I achieve this?
Hope the question makes sense somehow... thanks for any input.
Error message that I receive currently is that the server needs a client certificate. However I attached it in the send port properties under the tab "Security" => mode "TransportWithMessageCredential".

Adapter: WCF-Custom
Binding: customBinding
Cannot send pictures (yet).

Invoking an external web service through a JCD with Basic Authentication

Group,
I am trying to invoke an external web service (written in ASP.Net) from a jcd (5.1.2). The web service is guarded by Basic Authentication. I have entered the crudentials into the External Web service environment component and deployed the project. I receive the following error from the .invoke() method:
request requires HTTP authentication: Unauthorized
I have tried the same request through SoapUI using the same crudentials and get back the response correctly. Has anyone tried invoking an external web service with basic authentication through a jcd in 5.1.2 before?
One other item of note. I have another jcd calling a different external web service deployed on the same domain. I hope that this isn't interfering with the execution of this service as it doesn't require any crudentials to execute.

Hey Chris.
I am just starting to write a jcd that calls an external web service but cannot find any sample code nor instructions on how to do it in the supplied documentation. Could you send me a code sample from your one?
Cheers
Matt
