Error in RFC call, after unicode conversion of ERP

Hi,
We have just converted our ERP system to unicode. And we are using xMII 11.5. When i am calling a RFC thro' the BLS, it throws me this error
[ERROR]: RFC Execution Error: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x0) was found in the element content of the document.
The same error for all the RFC's i call.
But when i execute the BAPI as such in se37, in ERP , its fine.
What could be the reason for this?

Error with PS text after Unicode conversion

Hi, we are having problem after doing unicode conversion with special
character not displayed correctly in a Web interface. In SAP
(transaction CN04) everything is OK, but if the PS text is displayed
through a Web interface (BSP for instance) some characters are
displayed wrong. One of these characters is the apostrophe in French
language ('). Is there an available tool to perform a conversion of
existing PS text after performing unicode upgrade ?

Hi,
Probably because of timeout, it is unable to execute the request ..so it is aborted.
btw, is it a synchronous call ? what is the message size ? the given data to RFC is correct and valid structure ? check the mapping .for this use the data from SXMB_MONI and test it

After unicode conversion Variant missing

Dear All,
After unicode conversion in transaction S_ALR_87013611 and
S_ALR_87013613 variant is missing.
We checked in table VARIT - "Variant Texts" data is missing.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Joseph

Hello
Did you discover the reason for this? We are now facing the same issue and we cannot find the reason.
I don't think that note 987914 can be the answer.
Can it be something connected to the procedure for conversion or caused by a wrong-executed step?
Every suggestion can help,
Thanks

BAPI Receives unreadable parameters after unicode conversion

Dear All,
I have a strange issue, which i am stuck with and need your help to solve this.
I have a BSP Application which resides in my BW Production system and it calls a custom BAPI in R/3 to fetch list of materials based on material-text search as one of the parameters. This used to work properly before our R/3 got upgraded to ECC 6.0 with unicode conversion.
Both BW and R/3 are unicode systems now. But, doing external debugging i found that the parameters that i am sending through BSP to this BAPI are ok on BW side but, when it reaches R/3 it is getting converted to some unreadable characters due to which the BAPI doesnot return correct results.
Please advice where does conversion is happening and how can this be solved. I need immediate help as I am helpless and its a production issue...
Thanks,
Chandan

Hi Chandan,
please make sure that in transaction SM59 on both sides (BW and ERP) the rfc connections are defined as Unicode.

Some character display incorrect after unicode conversion

Dear Experts,
Currently we upgrade our SAP system from 4.6B NU to ECC6.0 UN.
in 4.6B system we had implemented Simple Chinese and French language package to the system. after upgrade to ECC6.0 no-unicode system. we perform a MDMP unicode conversion.currently system running with ECC6.0 unicode interface with language 1EFD. SUMG releated tasks had been finished. Chinese and French language checked OK in ECC6 UN system.
Our issue is. in the past time. some Spanish local end user typing some spanish character in some master date field when they login in 4.6B GUI choice english as login language.these kind of spanish characters could not display correct in current unicode environment.
could you please given us some suggestion for how to fix this issue.
I also sent this message in the Netweaver administrator forums with below links.
Spanish display incorrect after unicode conversion

Hello,
I doubt that the data shown by you in the link was caused by Spanish users logged on in EN.
I think this was rather caused by utf-8 data uploaded into the Non-Unicode system.
In this case, you need to repair the according texts manually, I do not know any automatic repair.

XI to RFC Scenario: Runtime error during RFC Call

Hi,
I am testing a XI-to-RFC scenario involving BPM. The RFC works perfectly from SE37; but I get 'ICM_HTTP_TIMEOUT, Error code 402' when I invoke it from XI. On digging through the problem, it appeared that the calling program produced a short dump at the ABAP end. The code is as follows:
<b>module %_rfcdia_start output.
    "Do not display screen !
    call 'DY_INVISIBLE_SCREEN'.
    perform remote_function_diastart.
endmodule.
module %_rfcdia_call output.
    "Do not display screen !
    call 'DY_INVISIBLE_SCREEN'.
    perform remote_function_diacall.
endmodule.

    perform remote_function_call using rfctype_external_cpic.

if there is no rollout on the JAVA side which
rolls both, JAVA and ABAP, we return to the
C-Stack and reach this point
in case there was an rollout, the ABAP-C stack is lost
and we jump direkt to this point
here we trigger the rollout on this Abap side with
the following statement
      system-call plugin
                  id 'JAVA' value 'ROLL_OUT'
                  id 'RC'   value rc.

Anybody has any idea why it is happening? Is it a network issue? The dump in ST22 says that 'The program "SAPMSYS1" was terminated manually'. How it is possible to manually abort an automatic call?
Awaiting reply.

SRM can not open attachment after unicode conversion

Hi,
Our system is SRM4.0, last week we do a unicode conversion project.
After we convert to unicode, some attachment in SC and PO can not be openned, these attachment file name include some chinese. If the attachment file name is all English, no problem to open it.
I think it is the cause by unicode conversion, do you have any idea what is the root of this problem?
Thanks.

Hi,
Please check in table :BBP_PDATT
If you have created a shopping cart with attachment. The attachment will be in the above table

Alignment all out after unicode conversion

The system is now unicode compliant.
The purchase order, invoice that has Chinese text as line item are all printed out of alignment.
It had pushed the next field towards the right.
I understand it is becuase of the unicode character / bytes difference.
Can someone shared with me how can I modified the sapscript to get it back in alignment?
Please provide a sample.
Thanks
bye

Hi,
I have read the thread before. It doesn't help in my case.
To share it with you,
I realised that I can place a length field after the field.
Previously I could use &EKPO-TZX01(40)&. Now I had to remove it to &EKPO-TZX01&.
it works for some but not all sapscripts.
For those that doesn't work, I will have to changed it as well as setting the tab using a separate paragraph.
So much to change after this unicode conversion.
Thanks

U00C9 becomes u00C3 after unicode conversion

Hi all,
After the unicode conversion in ECC 6.0 server, when we download a file from SAP to unix, the character É becomes Ã in the file,
1 When cat the file, it shows as
1. cat testzzz
TRÃSOR
2. When more the same file, it displays a different character # more testzzz
TRM-CM-^ISOR
3. When we download the same file to our PC and open it in the notepad it looks ok.
TRÉSOR
4. In the SAP also this displays correctly as below
TRÉSOR
So when I was checking the locale parameter at unix level, I could see that its "C".
1. locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
From my understanding "C" doesn't support unicode, so we tried "univ.utf8" & fi_FI.utf8 for LC_CTYPE but no luck.
Did anyone faced this problem earlier.
Our OS HPUX 11.31 - IA64
Thanks & Regards
Senthil

Hi Senthil,
what terminal software are you using. I use putty and when I switch my terminal window translation settings to UTF-8, I get the correct text. Therefore I assume that your problem is your terminal emulation.

Wrong text in ADRC and LFA1 table after Unicode conversion

Hello,
We are doing MDMP to Unicode on SAP 4.7 system.
In post unicode activities,we had corrected the garbage characters in
table ADRC
by converting to target langauage ZH using SUMG t-code.
Condition used for addind table ADRC in SUMG is LANGU ='1' and
LANGU_CREA = 'EN'
But after converting and saving the data,most of the records have
incorrect character in word.
and text field of search term/company name/city in table LFA1 are also
wrong in correspond field in table ADRC.
Thanks
Harshavardhan

Hi Harshavardhan,
Assumption: You have Chinese entries in table ADRC with ADRC-LANGU_CREA = EN
Now you have to distinguish two problems:
1) Chinese texts are stored in ADRC fields, which are NOT used for search help texts (most of the fields - e.g. ADRC-NAME1):
These texts can be handled in two ways:
a) Change LANGU_CREA = EN to LANGU_CREA = ZH for these entries (e.g. where ADRC-COUNTRY = CN) before the Unicode conversion (by the way, I would not use ADRC-LANGU, since this is the communication language, which does not necessarily comply with the code page of the entry).
This needs to be done in a similar way as shown in z-reports described in SAP Note 634839 ( although this specific fool-the-system case is not covered there - you have to adapt those examples)
b) Use SUMG to repair the entries using language ZH (as you already did)
My favourite would be a), as this can be done before the conversion (Note that SUMG ineeds to be executed during downtime !)
2) Chinese texts are stored in ADRC fields, which are used for search help texts (e.g. ADRC-MC_NAME1):
a) If these entries were inserted / changed with logon language ZH, then point 1) applies
b) If users logged on with logon language EN and created the entries, then most of these texts are destroyed already in Non-Unicode system. Then there is no automatic repair possible (at least point 1 does not work). Here my statement from before is valid:
Those entries need to be generated again - e.g. if you do a dummy change on the name.
According to my knowledge, this is a manual effort (either before or after the conversion) - but maybe it can be automized ...
