IDOC Listener not calling BLS Transaction

All,
I am running xmii 11.5.4. I have a single IDOC Listener configured with a Routing Rule for Message Type = "PROCESS_MESS_DOWNLOAD". The Routing Rule is defined to trigger a BLS called "TEST_BLS". The Listener is configured with the BLS Input Parameter.
The Listener processes the incoming message by writing the XML file to the defined Path with no problems.
The issue is the BLS Transaction will not trigger. The Transaction has a single Transaction Property of data type XML with no default value defined.
I have tried using a simple Transaction with nothing but an Event Logger or XML Trace actions to verify the Transaction is being executed. But nothing occurs.
I have viewed the General Log and see no errors or warnings or fatal log entries.
The Transaction works fine manually from inside Logic Editor and even runs from a URL invokation.
Any ideas of what to look for or try would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chuck

Udayan,
The Transaction consists of only an Event Logger Action and an XML Tracer Action. Neither of these are apparently executing. No event is logged and no entry is made to the XML Tracer file. The Transaction has a Transaction Property defined as stated in my first post.
I have noticed through trial and error that the IDOC Listener only works with the asterick message type. The actual message type of the IDOC is evidently not being read by the Listener. The IDOC being created is coming from a PPPI Process Message. The first few lines are:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<PROCESS_MESS_DOWNLOAD>
<INPUT>
<CLIENT>200</CLIENT>
</INPUT>
<TABLES>
<MSEL>
<item>
<MSID>100000000000000537</MSID>
Thanks,
Chuck

Lag when calling BLS Transaction from within another

Using MII 12.0.
In MII class, they told us a "best practice" was to check the "Reload Transaction after Execution" box in the configuration of a Transaction call within a BLS. The reasoning behind it was that should this not be checked, a previous result of that called BLS transaction would still be cached in memory and used instead of the newly assigned values from within your calling BLS.
Checking the "Reload transaction after Execution" box forces MII to reload that transaction when it is called.
In time analysis, what has been noticed is that there's a significant - up to 9 seconds - lag time when one BLS calls another BLS. On a time-sensitive operation, that is an eternity. That amount of overhead defeats any hope of using common code libraries.
Questions -
1. Is this a true "best practice", or is it one that adds unnecessary overhead to a BLS?
2. If the calling BLS executes 1 time - but is subject to be executed multiple times over a certain interval - is checking the Reload box of the BLS it is calling unnecessary?
3. Even if you pass new data each time you call that BLS, is it still going to use/return whatever data it has cached until the cache expires?
4. Is there another way to ensure that the called BLS uses the data you pass it (and returns the corresponding result set) without incurring the amount of overhead that we have noted?
Thanks

The version we're on is 12.0.6 Build 13, and moving to 12.1 (something I am not directly involved in). In this version, I'm not seeing the menu options you describe, so it's apparently in 12.1 or later.
The issue we are having if the "Reload transaction after execution" box is not selected is indeed caching of values.
For example -
BLS1 runs every 5 minutes
BLS2 is called from BLS1, and in this case, retrieves error log info from a table - a common module used by several BLS's.
BLS3 is also called from BLS1, and in this case, writes to an error log using information retrieved from BLS2 from within the execution of BLS1. BLS2 & BLS3's calls are in 2 separate sequences, one after the other.
If BLS2 & BLS3 DO NOT have the "Reload Transaction after execution" checked, each will run with whatever the cached data in memory is for them, even though inside BLS1 I am assigning values to the input of BLS1 to send to BLS2, and passing the returned data from BLS2 into BLS3. Unless it's checked, BLS2 & BLS3 would continue to be called, however, it would be with whatever data has been cached for them.
If that "Reload" switch is checked, it will reload each transaction & call it with whatever data is being passed.
This was mentioned in the MII class I was in also. This is a generalization, but the way they described it was being similar to how you might save a web page to your local PC, and that unless that page is refreshed & changed, that from that point on, every time you brought up your saved web page, it would always display the same values in it. They didn't go into great deal to explain the mechanics of it, but MII would only load it the first time it executed, and that unless you forced it (by checking the Reload switch), it would always execute using the same cached values no matter what you were passing.

Calling bls transaction on MII server startup

Hi expert,
is it possible to call bls transaction on MII server startup?
Thanks.

Not that I am aware of - at least nothing directly. The first thought that would come to mind would be a scheduled job (something with a reasonable interval but not too frequent) that would check /XMII/Illuminator?Service=SystemInfo&Mode=Uptime and do a datediff check between datenow and the xml resulting StartTime.
At least you will know how long MII's been up and running.

Error calling BLS Transaction as Web service

Hi,
I am trying to call BLS tranx as Webservice from another BLS Tranx.
I craeted the simple BLS with no input parameter and set only one output parameter.
Then i created the WSDL as
http://<server:port>/XMII/WSDLGen/<Transaction path>.
In new BLS tranx, i created the Web Service action block and gave this WSDL URL (http://<server:port>/XMII/WSDLGen/<Transaction path>).
I gave username and password and selected the port(XacuteWSSoap) and then operation( xacute).
In Links, I gave the Loginname and Password.
But while executing, it showed the error as
Error Invoking Web Service Action: Status (401): Unauthorized
My username and Loginname and passwords are correct only.
What is the problem and how to solve it.
Regards,
Senthil

Hi,
Which SAP MII version you are using?
I have tested one piece in MII 12.0.9 it works for me following are steps which i followed.
After WSDL generation
1. in Web service action block --> cofigure i am passing following parameters
WSDL base URL: http://<server:port>/XMII/WSDLGen/<transaction Path>
User Name: XXX
Password: XXX
2. in Web service action block --> Links I am passing following parameters
WSDLUrl : http://<server:port>/XMII/WSDLGen/<transaction Path>
Web_Service_0.XacuteRequest{/ns1:XacuteRequest/ns1:LoginName} : XXX
Web_Service_0.XacuteRequest{/ns1:XacuteRequest/ns1:LoginPassword} : XXX
Refer below SDN thread may be helpfull:

Return listener not called for popup invoked from RichCommandToolbarButton

I have a popup dialog which is shown via the adf framework by specifying <run-as-dialog> on the <task-flow-call>.
This popup is shown in two different contexts: In one it is shown via RichCommandMenuItem, in the other it is shown via RichCommandToolbarButton. For both I do .setReturnListener via the same function pointing to the same MethodExpression.
Subsequently in the bean for the popup I do .returnFromDialog.
However, when the popup is invoked via the menu item, the return listener handler is called. But, when the popup is invoked via the toolbar button the return listener handler is not called.
Can anyone suggest any reasons why a return listener from a RichCommandToolbarButton might not be called?
Thank you,
Ania.

Yes, they are.
RichCommandToolbarButton adfButton = new RichCommandToolbarButton();
adfButton.setUseWindow(true);
adfButton.setPartialSubmit(true);
adfButton.setImmediate(true);
adfButton.setWindowHeight(butDef.getHeight());
adfButton.setWindowWidth(butDef.getWidth());
RichCommandMenuItem menuItem = new RichCommandMenuItem();
menuItem.setUseWindow(true);
menuItem.setPartialSubmit(true);
menuItem.setImmediate(true);
menuItem.setWindowHeight(TableDefinitions.getTxnPropertyEditToolbarButton().getHeight());
menuItem.setWindowWidth(TableDefinitions.getTxnPropertyEditToolbarButton().getWidth());

Read Idoc Data In xMII 12 BLS Transaction

Hi All,
I am new to xMII.
I followed the instructions suggested in the Document "How to Send an IDoc from the SAP R/3 Enterprise to the SAP xMII IDoc Listener" By Diana Hoppe and Michael Appleby written on 04 Dec 2008. It was pretty simple and i was able to complete all the steps.
In the Message Monitor in xMII 12.0 i am able to see " 5 Messags Found" and they are listed below in a grild with the server name, Message Name, Message Type etc
Example
Server Name Message Type Message Name Message Category Received Time Processing Time
MII_IDOC IDoc LOIPRO01 MII_IDOC 2009-07-10 02:11:25.911
Now i would like to know how do i read the contents of this IDOC i.e Production order? Is there a sample or stepby step guide which explains how i can get this data into an xML message in a BLS Transaction?
Are there any simple steps to be followed to get this data from the IDOC?
Please help me undestand this. Thanks in advance.
Regards
Suraj Prabhu

Hi Dipankar,
I had Pre ordered your book and I just received a copy. The first impression wrt the Contents & Coverage of the book looks excellent.
Congratulations to you and Abesh on this achievement. Writing a book on a topic which there has been no book written earlier is a great feat on its own.
Will be spending more time with the book today evening.
My Expectations from this book:
1. A good intermediate to Expert developer/ BA / Architect guidance.
2. Error Handling & Implementation - Best practices
3. A Reference book for the current implementation I am doing with a customer :).
Will keep you updated with my comments on the book. Since this is a first time I am working on a xMII implementation this book will be a life saver for me and could not have come at a better time. Thanks again.
BTW u2013 First thing I checked in the book was steps on how to read the data from the IDOC in the Buffer and that has been explained pretty well and in detailsu2026.. Thanks again for that.

Where can I find IDOC Listener (xMII 12.05) .It is not in DataServices.

Hi all,
I can not find IDOC Listener in Data Services in xMII version 12.05.
Where can I find the IDOC Listener? Must I set up it first? Or must I do some configurations for IDOC Listener?
Thanks.

Cemil,
in MII 12.0.x you will find the Listener under Message Services -> Message Listener.
If you need to run a transaction after receiving a IDOC, than you need also to configure
a Rule under Message Services -> Processing Rule Editor.
Under the link below you will find the Documentation for Message Services:
http://wbhelp.sap.com/manufacturing/xmii_120/en/45/aa5d17b8f52e78e10000000a155369/frameset.htm

Failover callback not called when listener dies

I need to create a RAC-aware Pro*C application.
I got the preconfigured VirtualBox images with OL 5 and RAC nodes.
The listener is installed on both machines too. They share a single IP address for the listener, which I added to the hosts file:
192.168.56.201 rac-scan.localdomain rac-scanActually, the cluster decides to create a virtual network adapter on one of the nodes and this address is assigned to it and then the listener becomes awailable. When this node dies, the cluster starts the listener on another node.
I don't know, whether it's a proper way. I heard that the listener should be on a separate machine.
But the problem is: when I turn off the node my client program is connected to, the failover callback function is not called. The next oracle operation fails with "ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE".
I followed http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A91202_01/901_doc/appdev.901/a89857/oci09adv.htm#428924 and https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=415245.1 to create the sample program that registers the callback.
Could it be that the failover only works when the DB service fails, but not the listener?

The problem was bad connection string

BUG: Return listener not being called for manually launched dialog

Hello all,
I have found a bug in the dialog framework. To set the stage, I have a ADF Faces page with a command button on it. The partial submit property is set to "true" and the use window property is also set to "true." I also have the returnListener property set to a method in the backing bean. When I set the Action property of the command button to a global navigation rule that launches a dialog, the return listener is being called correctly when I dismiss the dialog.
However, when I launch the dialog from an action listener, the return listener is not being called. Here is my action listener code:
public void al (ActionEvent ae)
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ViewHandler vh = context.getApplication().getViewHandler();
    UIViewRoot dialog = vh.createView(context, "/infrastructure/ICConfirmDelete.jspx");
    HashMap properties = new HashMap();
    properties.put("width", new Integer(300));
    properties.put("height", new Integer(300));
    AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().launchDialog(dialog, null, ae.getComponent(), true, properties);
}and here is my return listener:
public void rl(ReturnEvent re)
    System.out.println("in return");
    System.out.println((String) re.getReturnValue());
}OK - here's an update. If the command button is in the Actions facet of the page, everything works as expected. However, if the button is in the selection facet of a table (inside of afTableSelectOne) - it does not work properly as documented here. It also works correctly if the button is in the actions facet of the table. I think that this is a bug and needs to work - my use case (as you might tell from my code) is to do a delete confirmation dialog. My short-term workaround is to use the Action instead of ActionListener property on the command button, but the issue I have is that the pop-up dialog is just a tad too small, and is showing scrollbars.
Regards,
John

Added additional information about tableSelectOne

Gabrielle,
Sorry for the confusion.
What does not work:
Initiating a dialog from the ActionListener attached to a command button (where the command button is inside an afSelectTableOne) will not fire the returnListener when the dialog is closed.
What does work:
Initiating a dialog by returning a dialog-based navigation rule (e.g. a string starting with "dialog:") from the Action attached to a command button (even if the command button is inside an afSelectTableOne) - the return listener is called when the dialog is closed
What also does work:
Initiating a dialog with either method (Action or ActionListener) when the command button is elsewhere on the Page (e.g. in the Actions facet)
Hope this clarifies the bug. I could send a test case if desired.
Kind regards,
John

RRI not working for calling up transaction BI admin cockpit

Hi,
We have implemented BI admin cockpit and all technical contents and settings are OK, but when we try to navigate to call any transaction (Monitor, Process status TCode ST22, RSA1, RSMO, RSPC etc) by calling RRI than instead of getting the desired transaction screen we are getting the SAP Easy Access screen. Although we can navigate to Second level web template thru RRI and if we define target system other that BI (i.e. ECC or CRM) than we are able to navigate any transaction transaction i.e. SE38 or SE37 etc,
Any suggestion or help would be appriciated.
thanks

Configuring IDOC Listener on MII 12.1

Hi,
I had a basic question around the configuration.
This is from 12.1 help:
"The SAP Java Resource Adapter (SAP JRA) server is used to connect to SAP ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) to receive remote function calls (RFC) and IDocs. You can use the asynchronous HTTP interface to post data to SAP MII for asynchronous transaction processing."
In this regard is it mandatory to first configure SAP JRA on NW and then proceed with the IDOC specific config both on the R/3 as well as NW side?
The reason I ask this is that we are currently struggling with this config on 12.1.8 (build 30) where the BASIS folks are observing that the system hangs when they try to add enteries to the XMIIIDOC component . Before going through with the IDOC config they made sure that the JRA is configured and followed the steps as mentioned in the 12.1 installation guide under "Configuring JRA for JRA Actions" & "Cloning the default JRA Config" sections.They are simultaneously also following up in the NW forums to find a solution.
Additionally I had another question (this one's specifically for MIke Appleby ). Would one have to follow similar config steps as IDOC when configuring the RFC listener , atleast from the NW CE perspective? We are trying to download Control Recipes from R/3.
Thanks
Udayan

Hi Udayan,
Yes, the configuration for the RFC Listener is essentially the same as the IDoc Listener, except the binding is different (do not change either type from the default values and you should be fine).
The differences between the two Listener types are really on the ECC side. The installation instructions for Batch Manufacturing included the RFC Listener setup. Keep meaning to write a separate document for RFC Listeners, but haven't yet.
One general note of caution for all readers:
Do not reuse ProgIDs from an IDoc Listener in an RFC Listener and vice versa. Only use a unique ProgID once (and deleting them from one Listener or MII server to use them elsewhere is generally not advisable).
Roughly 90% of the tickets entered for IDoc Listeners with MII are because of ProgIDs used in more than one place.
Regards,
Mike

IDOC Listener Exception

Error (id=GET_BUSINESS_SYSTEM_ERROR): An error occurred when determining the business system (LD_ERROR)
Thought this error is coming from ABAP program, but I am sure that this is related to some configuration at SAP level. (Let me inform you that there are two different servers for SAP Web Dynpro ABAP and SAP MII.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

RFC Adapter not Call

Hello Friends,
I am working on XI 2.0
My Scenario is
IDOC --> XI --> RFC Adapter --> R/3 System
I am configuring the RFC adapter for the SAP system.
But when I am able to try to call using the Integration Engine its not call the RFC adapter.
I define the end point as
RFC Adapter
(X) Load Balancing Deactivated
Application Server -- <host name>
System Number -- 00
When I run the scenario it show me in the <b>sm58</b> transaction as
<b>Connection Close (no Data)</b>
And in the SXMB_MONI Transaction it shows
<b>A. Status</b> as <b>Green Flag</b> means <b>Message schedule on outbound side</b>.
So can you please identify and suggest me the solution or what else configuration is required.
Thanks & Regards,
Gaurav Jain

try to register all queues in SXMB_ADM -> Manage queues.
I think that should help you solve the issue.
