Error 'Program not registered' while testing RFC connection PI_RFC

Hi Basis Experts
I am having problems while testing an RFC connection PI_RFC in one of our PI quality system.
Here is the Error log
Logon Connection Error
Error when opening an RFC connection
ERROR: program PI_RFC not registered
LOCATION: SAP-Gateway on host bp1xeuaa202 / sapgw01
DETAIL: TP PI_RFC not registered
Details COMPONENT: SAP-Gateway
COUNTER: 15866
MODULE: gwr3cpic.c
Details RETURN CODE: 679
We tried restarting the JCO-RFC provider service in VA,also tried restarting the Gateway service, tried registering the RFC using below command
rfcexec u2013g PI_RFC -a bp1xeuaa202 -x sapgw01
rfcexec u2013D PI_RFC
the command didnt gave any output also in SMGW tcode we didnt get the entry(PI_RFC) under system type as registered server.
Also we tried changing the Gateway hostname and service name in SM59.
Still we are facing the same issue, can anyone please help us in resolving this issue.
Regards
Syed

Hi,
It seems to like problem with your program is not registered. As suggested by spantaleoni, you can go through.
Here Program Id must be case sensitive. Once again check with your program Id.
And, you have to register your program id in Visual Administrator.
Goto Visual Administrator:
In that Select Cluster>Server>Services-->JCo RFC Provider
Then enter the Program Id and gw host & service.
Hope this helps to you.

Error 'Program not registered' while testing RFC - SRM to MDM / TCP/IP conn

Hello All,
While testing RFC connection in SRM, we are getting this error. This connection between SRM to MDM. Any inputs will be highly appreciated.
Error Details LOCATION: SAP-Gateway on host <hostname> / sapgw<instance no>
our server OS : windows 2008 server
We are getting error while doing connection test in SRM.
This is sm59 connection (TCP/IP ) connection.
Connection Type: T / RFC destination Name: MDM_API_CATALOG
Registered server program: hostname.MDS
I checked smgw transaction ..Logged on clients...Program id is not showing. Any hint will be helpful.
I Checked this MDM setup also.
MDS setup
In mdm server go to folder F:\usr\sap\DM1\MDS00\config
Open MDM.ini file in notepad
Add the below 2 entries.
SAP RFC Gateways= GWHOST=XXXX.hostnamexxx.xxx GWSERV=sapgw00
Trusted SAP Systems= XXD
This will enable gateway connection between SRM and MDM and will enable trusted connection.
For trusted connections to work, we created a service user called SRM_MDM_API with SAP_ALL in SRM and also created the same user in MDM with Default role.

Procedure Tried
1) This procedure is for Linux OS - Similarly we tried in Windows OS ( If any procedure is wrong also, Please correct us)
To register the program login into the OS level as sudo su u2013 <sid>adm and execute the following command.
rfcexec u2013g<program id> -a<gateway host name> -x<gateway service>
rfcexec is the server program name, the <program id> can be obtained from SM59, it is case sensitive and should match with the entry in SM59. The <gateway host name> and <gateway service> can be obtained from the transaction SMGW. When this command is executed it goes to a hanging loop.
The connection will fail once this command is terminated or the user executing this command logs off
2)
To avoid this, instead of using the above mentioned command an entry should be made in the file saprfc.ini
To do this, execute the following command
sudo su u2013 <sid>adm
rfcexec u2013D<destination name>
<destination name> is the RFC destination name in SM59
In order to do above step 2, we could not find saprfc.ini in windows 2008 server. Please let us know path where it will be usually?
3) Already checked the notes sapnote_0000684841
I know that it is generic error..This is happening to specific one of system only.
Thanks

Hello SM,
Thanks for your quick reply.
Thanks for sharing link for document ie Configure the MDM Administration_cockpit. It is helpful. I read that document.
But still issue remain there.
The same RFC connection works between SRM sandbox to MDM sandbox.
Only issue with SRM Prod to MDM Prod (newly built system)
difference between MDM Prod and MDM sandbox.
MDM Prod runs: Windows server 2008 OS
MDM Sandbox runs: Windows server 2003 OS
Landscape: PI7.1, MDM 7.1 and SRM 5.5, SRM-MDM Catalog 3.0
Even i did os01 tcode ping test using host name (specific IP address) from SRM prod to MDM prod, it is fine.
Thanks a lot for your help.
I checked these notes also
Note 353597 - Registering a server program
Note 44844 - No connection to registered RFC program
Note: in smgw tcode in SRM system, the required program id is not showing in logged on clients
Thanks

The program in the above error should be registered in the gateway for this connection test to complete successfully. The server program rfcexec is responsible for its registration on the gateway.
To register the program login into the OS level as sudo su - <sid>adm and execute the following command.
rfcexec u2013g<program id> -a<gateway host name> -x<gateway service>
rfcexec is the server program name, the <program id> can be obtained from SM59, it is case sensitive and should match with the entry in SM59. The <gateway host name> and <gateway service> can be obtained from the transaction SMGW. When this command is executed it goes to a hanging loop.

To avoid this, instead of using the above mentioned command an entry should be made in the file saprfc.ini
To do this, execute the following command
sudo su - <sid>adm
rfcexec u2013D<destination name>
<destination name> is the RFC destination name in SM59
So now we are done with registering the server program, but how do we check it is registered, once a server program is registered it is displayed in the Logged on clients in SMGW.
In transaction SMGW choose GOTO-> Logged on clients. There should be an entry for the server program in the screen that is displayed with system type Registered_TP (which indicates that the program is registered)

Hi Sunny,
Thank you for your suggestion, actually we have tried registration using rfcexec and it works fine.
BTW, we have managed to solve this issue by de-activate the IDoc receive & send modules of websap component and activate them again.

Gateway error - Program not registered

Hello,
We were getting the following error while doing a "Connection test" of a TCP/IP RFC destination:
LOCATION SAP-Gateway on host gisrxx / sapgw00
ERROR program SBCX not registered
It's an ECC 6.0 system.
I found SAP note - - 353597 - Registering a RFC program
I executed the following command as sidadm
rfcexec -aSBCX -ggisrxx -xsapgw00
But the command keeps on running on teh command prompt.
And for that duration the RFC works.
But after sometime the command ends and comes back to command prompt and the RFC doesn't work any more.
Could you tell what needs to be done to resolve this issue?
Regards,
Gautam.

Hi Gautam,
Please run the program in background (Unix) or as a service (Windows).
Please go through the following forum post. This should help.
Run rfcexec as service on windows

Hello Joe,
From the error logs I can make out two things.
Your SAP resides on cpsaput1 while external program resides on cpamhq-sbg04 .
Now you have done a system copy on cpsaput1 from a SAP system which was connecting fine to the RFC. That connection was going through because SAP details for the old server were correctly maintained at cpamhq-sbg04 but the same has not been done for cpsaput1 . Ask the adminsitrators for cpamhq-sbg04 to make settings for cpsaput1 and then try RFC again.
Regards.

TREX7.1 - Program not registered

Hi to all experts,
I am implementing TREX7.1 revision 36 (latest) which is standalone, but I encountered the error - program not registered while creating the RFC connection in admin tool. Previously the connection was working but it happens when I switched the RFCSERVER to "single thread (all hosts), deleted the old RFC connection and recreate the new one.
I have tried the following methods:
1. removed TREX and reinstall it again.
2. executed rfcexec u2013g<program id> -a<gateway host name> -x<gateway service> (it seems like nothing has been changed) - I registered it in SAP server, am I correct?
Thanks in advance.
BR,
Nancy

Hi to all experts,
Problem solved once i restarted the SAP server and recreated the RFC connection in TREX server.
Another issue now, when i run the "python runInstallationTest.py", error occurs as below:

Risk Terminator ECC 6 - CC 5.2 - RFC Test: Program not registered

Dear board,
I am configuring the risk terminator functionality and stumble accross problems with the setup of the RFC destination from ECC to the CC. The connection test fails with "ERROR: program GRCRTTOCC5X not registered".
The RFC connection is of type TCP/IP, Registered Server Program, Default Gateway Value and Gateway host/service information I took from another working rfc connection.
The RFC connection is equal to the one set up in the RT configuration transaction, I have set up a dedicated connector on the CC with direction outound and GRCRTTOCC5X as report.
I have furthermore noticed that I am not able to active the SAP Adapter in the CC yet, a JCO error appears.
Any ideas?
Kind regards and many thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard,

Also..in the Visual administrator see that the destination details are correct....it doesnot seem as if the program got registered to the sap gateway.....
From the Visual Administrator for the destination, pls do a Save & Test...

Error : Modification not possible- while creating source system in BI7

Hi BI Guru's,
We are using BI7 and source system ECC6 ,We are about to move to production, When creating the source system in BI PRD system we getting the Error Modification not possible.we created RFC connection, background user and remote connection works fine.
Is there any body put some light on this issue
thanks in advance,
Regards,

Mohan,
Check if your logical systems are in place in SCC4 and also in the transport connection.
Also check if you are connecting to the source system by IP Address or by logical name.
Accordingly you would have to maintain the source system connections.

KABA connection issue - program not registered

I am trying to troubleshoot a connection error between SAP and KABA. I have the RFC created in SAP and when I test the connection I get a program not registered. The KABA "amsproc" service on the KABA side has been restarted, we have occasionally received a password locked message in the SAP system log after restarting the KABA service (I believe this means SAP and KABA are communicating). We have since reset the password, but we can not successfully test the RFC and when attempting to send IDOC's out we get the program not registered error. Is there something on the SAP side that needs to be done to register the program or is starting the service on the KABA side going to register the program with SAP? Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,
In Central Management Console ie, Admin application of BOE, you need to configure the BW system. Use the below URL,
http://<serverhostname>:<port>/CmcApp
After logging in Select the Authentication and SAP as authentication type. Regarding how to configure, follow the configuration steps mentioned in the below article:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a00ee3b2-5283-2b10-f1bf-8c6413e0898f
Once you import the roles with the above configuration, the user with which you are validating the RFC connection will be imported in the BOE.
Now, verify the RFC in the BW system.
Regards,
Noor.

RFC : Transaction Program not Registered

Hi Folks,
We have registered the server program from the middleware onto SAP R/3 System and is successfully registered as per the logs. As a next step, we have logged into R/3 System, SM59, in the RFC destination (Type TCP/IP) after specifying the registered program, we have tested it(Connectivity test). The test is positive and connectivity is established successfully.
The solution was working for months and suddenly connectivity is broken.
To restore the connection, we have repeated the steps, registered the server program, tested and everything is fine.
But when we have pushed a new message, then onwards the RFC destination shows an error. "TP is not registered", Return Code 679. That is when the first message is pushed, it is de-registering the server program and running into error. All the messages got stuck in SM58 with status 'Error when opening an RFC connection'.
RFC trace shows
ERVER> Caller transaction code: (Caller Program: SAPLQOWK)
ERVER> Called function module: ARFC_RUN_NOWAIT
Error RFCIO_ERROR_SYSERROR in abrfcpic.c : 1501
CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPOCMINIT' : cmRc=2 thRc=679
Transaction program not registered.
Please let me know for any inputs.
Thanks, Suraj

My problem got solved. In the middleware, when TRFC connection is made, it has created a lock entry during the time, system was brought down for maintenance activity. When the system is brought up, then as the connection lock entry is available, then it deregistered the server program and not able to establish further connection.
To resolve the issue, we have just deleted lock file and registered server program from middleware. This time the connection was established successfully and could able to restore the message flow.
Thanks, Suraj

Error while testing ITS Connection

Hi all:
There is an error while testing ITS Connection, it says the 8000 port is a closed point by the firewall , but according to the
administrator of intranet, there is no firewall between ECC and Portal, I guess I should add port 8000 into service file ? I mean the file of Host and Service, am I right ?
An HTTP/S connection to http://10.180.80.171:8000 was not obtained successfully; this might be due to a closed port on the Firewall.

thank you very much for your help. for update server's full name, may I put the mapping values into host file in the format of <ip address> <hostname.domain name> <hostname>, do you think it is OK?
in the second blog you suggest there is something about Server port(please refer to the following):
in the window machine, there should be an entry like sapms<SAP System ID> , can you please give me a full example:
let's say my system ID is EC1, so it would be sapmsEC1 8000/tcp, right ?
Here you have to enter the port of your application server. By default this is 80<SAP System ID>. But your basis administrator can modify this setting, thatu2019s why you should check it in the transaction SMICM (Goto -> Parameters -> Display). For example the IBSolution Development System Erinome the port is 8000.
You can also have a look into your services file on your machine. If you have a windows machine then the file exists e.g. here C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services
In this file you should search a entry like sapms<SAP System ID>.
