Not able to consume Spring web services form Apex.

Hi all,
I have written web services using Spring web services and i have tested them using SoapUi- web services testing tool. But when i try to consume the same using Apex, Apex fails to parse the Wsdl properly and invalid request and response elements are created.
The request and response elements are in an different xsd and i have imported it in the wsdl.
Problem: when Apex parses the wsdl, it fails to download the referenced xsd and hence fails to create the request and response elements properly.
Questions: Can apex download an xsd through http? if yes, how do we enable apex to do it.
What are the other options available.?
I have pasted a extract from the wsdl below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><wsdl:definitions xmlns:schema="http://com/webservice" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/" xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" targetNamespace="http://com/webservice">
<wsdl:types>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><xsd:import namespace="http://com/webservice" schemaLocation="../model/WebServiceModel.xsd"/></xsd:schema>
</wsdl:types>

Anish

Anish:
Application Express will attempt to download external XSD references (version 3.0 or later), but I believe the problem with this particular reference is that the reference is relative:
../model/WebServiceModel.xsd
Another option is to use the Manual Web references feature. You can use a tool like SOAPUI to get a properly formatted SOAP Envelope for the operation of the particular service you wish to interact with.

Not able to access SOAP web service data control from adf mobile

Hi,
I am trying to call web services from adf mobile..
I have created data control from external web service and it is perfectlly working on web browser..
But why it is showing an error on emulator??
Is there any .jar file missing in adf mobile so that it is not supporting a web service?
Or is there any other problem? Emulator is connected to network and I am able to run WSDL in emulator's browser..
Please help me to solve this issue..
Thanks,
Laxmi

Emulator is connected to network and I am able to run WSDL in emulator's browser..
Connecting to WSDL in the browser is not the same as connecting to WSDL in an application.
To access a web service from an Android device enable a permission in AndroidManifest.xml that allows applications to open network sockets. Add the following uses-permission element.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>

Not able to receive the web service response to java client - jax-rpc

HI,
Have a wsdl and created the java client using wscompile and got the set of files (Port, Binding, ServiceLocator, Service and all related java files).
My java client sends the valid java request to the webserver and i could see the correct response coming back to my machine as the reply from the webserver.
But i couldnt get the response printed using System.out.println in my java client when i invoke call.invoke() method with needed input parameters.
Do i need to set any encoding or how do i get the response in the my java client which is returned from the webserver?

The whole PL/SQL which fails in case it helps to solve the issue

Consuming RESTful web service in Apex app

Hi,
I have created a RESTful Web service through an Apex application (4.0) and published as a public web service. Can someone point me to an example of how to then consume that service in another Apex app? The output is straightforward XML that I can retrieve just by pointing the browser to the URL of the service created, but when I go to create the REST Web Reference for the receiving application, I am not sure what to put for the Response Xpath or Response Namespace. The service is meant to just return report records that were created in the REStful Web service with no input required.
The service XML looks like this:
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<PROJ_ID>132</PROJ_ID>
<PSL_NETID>xxxxxxxx</PSL_NETID>
<PROJECT_TITLE>11g- Oracle Upgrade to RAC 11g</PROJECT_TITLE>
<CUSTOMER>OIT</CUSTOMER>
<DIVISION>EIS</DIVISION>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<PROJ_ID>132</PROJ_ID>
<PSL_NETID>xxxxxx</PSL_NETID>
<PROJECT_TITLE>11g- Oracle Upgrade to RAC 11g</PROJECT_TITLE>
<CUSTOMER>OIT</CUSTOMER>
<DIVISION>CSS</DIVISION>
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have made progress in this. I created the RESTful report service in an Apex 4.1 application. (previous attempt was with 4.0 version of Apex)
I then created a separate application and created a RESTful web service reference that I tested and it was successful in bringing up XML. However in Apex 4.1, when I create a report following the Wizard for creating a report based on that Web service reference I get the error: ORA-31013: Invalid XPATH expression Which I don't know how to get past. The Xpath provided in the Web service reference test gave output below and brought back a result. There was no where during the Report creation to provide an Xpath. Am I missing something or is 4.1 not quite Web service ready??
This is what I get from the test of the Web service reference in the Apex App from which I want to create a report: (I see in this XML the data I was expecting from the test of the RESTful web service but it looks like the output I get from the Web service test is more like the Report xml itself.)

Not able to call BPEL web service using RMI call from different machine

Hi,
1. I have created a smiple Helloworld asynchoronous BPEL process
2. I am able to call that BPEL process using java program (RMI call) which I have written in JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 and the java program is running in the embeded OCJ4 instance of JDeveloper sucessfully.
3. Now I am trying to run the same Java program in my unix machine where oracle application is installed.
4. I have set all the CLASSPATH for required jars which I have used in JDeveloper and also kept the jar file in Unix machine.

Not able to consume Web Services that are in Service Registry

Hi Experts,
I am trying to consume the web services that are published into the Service Registry of CE 7.1 Server.
Previously, I was able to consume the web services.But now I found the following error in VC Console, When i try to consume the same web services or even other web services that are there in that server.
"(E) Error in Search: Unknown error has occured in service execution"
Please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Regards,
Palani

Hi Palani,
I guess the first 2 things you may want to test are:
1. Is the Webservice reachable? please try and run the webservice URL in your browser and see if you get the xml file.
2. Proxy settings - please see that the proxy settings on the server are defined properly.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
Omer.

Consuming BI Web Services in IDT

Hi,
I have published a WEBi block as web service that I am trying to consume as data source for universe in Infromation Design tool.
I am able to create a relation connection to published web service using Generic | Web Services (WSDL 1.1) | Web Services Connector.
In data foundation above connection does expose various "GetReportBlock_ ..." objects that I can add as table into my data foundation. Like,
None of these obejcts show structure as per structure of the WEBi table that was published as web service. Instead, it shows whole bunch of input variables, like,
Now, here I am not sure what value to provide to these variables, they all show up as mandatory. And if I add these as it is into businesslayer, create test quey on these objects, I get failed to refresh error.
My question is,
- Is it even possible to do what I am trying?
- Is this something to do with web services configuration / settings on my BI server?
Also, I am able to consume this web service in a new WEBi docuement (as a test) successfuly.
My server is BI 4.1 SP2 P2.
I have see some blog on the subject, wherein they show that IDT is able to consume a web service, but that is not coming from BI Platform and is external, http://scn.sap.com/community/semantic-layer/blog/2013/08/30/bi41-creating-a-universe-on-top-of-a-web-service
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you much !!
IMS

Hi Silvestro,
what I want to do is to have the resulting vtable of webservice availabe in IDT, just like any other table so that I can possibly use and join it with other table.
What I am seeing in IDT is not table structure that you usually are able to map to in Xcelsius. In the example, see link in my origical post, it shows that table.
Thank you,

Not able to consume any service out of ESR or Service Registry

Hello Guys,
I have installed trial version of SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 EHP 1^with ESR. I have also install Visual Composer. I want to make some exercises to make my concept clear but I am not able to find any service from the Find option in the VC. I have also tried to consume any service in Webdynpro project and trying to create model from ESR or Service Registry but It does not connect to ESR.
Your recommendations are welcome.
Regards,
Naeem Khan

Hi Manohar,
Can you please explain something in more detail????
Because I have already configured ESR and SR accoding to installation manual and I have also seen the webminar of installation of SAP NW CE 7.1 with ESR line is here
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/elearn?rid=/library/uuid/704fe668-2cf4-2a10-a38c-8604e4989d49&overridelayout=true
One thing I am not sure about is, when I go to configure initial setup by using configuration wizard. There is one error (file missing on importing XI content) when I am going to execture "Configuration of ESR in CE" task from the task list in the configuration wizard. I think becasue of that I am not able to consume services in VC and webdynpro projects!!!
What do you say???
If also think the same then can I install some how missing xi content to ESR??? I have seen on service market place when I go to ESR - component list.
Or you recommend me to install PI/XI on my server then this missing component should be installed automatically???
Regards,
Naeem

Consuming ABAP Web Service in Non SAP system

Hi
I have created an ABAP web service form the RFC and configured it in the SOAMANAGER. I have tested it in Web Service Navigator using the URL and it is working fine.
Now I am trying to access it from the Non SAP system using Java Code. I am able to access the WSDL using the URL from the step 1 but not able to receive any output when providing inputs.
So I am not sure if I am missing any configuration on the Provider System (SAP) or on the Consumer system (Non SAP) to access the web service. As far I have not configured anything on the consumer system. Please let me know how to consume the web service in the Non SAP system.
Thank you,
Rohit

not necessarily an answer to your question, but i find that when creating SAP web services, before we create the code for consuming them, I always test them with the SOAPUI package. with this test suite you can import the WSDL, and run individual tests, seeing the input, output, exceptions, etc. This is a good way to check the connection, the flow and the service logic, before writing any code. This will also let you know whether it is a WS issue, or an issue with your code.
just a thought, from someone who has been there...
http://www.soapui.org is where you can find the SOAPUI. It helped me out a lot.

Handling of SOAP Faults in SOAP Clients consuming PI Web services

Hi there,
the following is in regards to SOAP fault error handling in a SOAP client that consumes a Web Service published by PI.
I have been reading a number of threads and blogs in regards to this topic and I am still left with some open questions which I hope to get some final answersclarifications through this thread.
In particular the blogs
Handling Web Service SOAP Fault Responses in SAP NetWeaver XI      - Handling Web Service SOAP Fault Responses in SAP NetWeaver XI
XI: Propagation of meaningful error information to SOAP Client     - XI: Propagation of meaningful error information to SOAP Client
have caused by attention.
Both of these threads are realating to the Fault Message type one can use to return errors back to a SOAP Client (.Net, Java, etc.).
In our scenario we published a number of Web Services through PI that provide functionality to integrate with an R3 back-end system using inbound ABAP Proxies.
The services are standardised and will be consumed by a number of .NetJava applications and systems. The reason for the use of ABAP proxies is the customer specific application logic that is executed in the backend system. The Web services are synchronous and don't use ccBPM in the middle. Transformations are performed in PI combined with various lookups to set default values before the message is passed into the ABAP Framework of the R3 back-end system. The lookups are done against the R3 back-end system using the PI RFC Lookup feature.
The inbound proxies currently return application errors as part of the response message back to the SOAP client. For more critical errors we introduced the use of Fault message types as the method to return the information back to the SOAP Client. This is all working satisfactory.
The questions I have are as follows.
1. When an error occurs at the IE level (e.g. mapping error), ABAP Proxy framework level (e.g. conversion from XML to ABAP format) or Adapter Framework level (Adapter releated error) a different SOAP fault message structure is returned to the SOAP Client than the one    used for the application errors. The SOAP fault message structure used in this case is the standard SOAP fault used by PI to return system errors back to the caller. For those SOAP fault messages there is no payload generated that could be mapped to the SOAP fault structure used for the application errors. This would be preferrable as there would be only one Fault message structure used for both inbound ABAP proxy generated fault messages and PI generated fault messages.
Also the error messages generated by PI can be quite cryptic and difficult to interpret at the client end and could be filtered     ranslated during message mapping if the payload of the PI generated SOAP fault message could be accessed in a message mapping.
Point 3 of the above thread 2759 indicates that this would be possible but doesn't outline how. Could somebody please clarify this for me as I don't believe that this is really possible ???.
My idea instead was to use the PI SOAP fault message structure to also return application errors. Therefore I would create a Fault message type that matches the PI SOAP fault structure. This would enable the SOAP Client to handle only one SOAP Fault error structure. Would that be something to look into instead ?????.
2. We have been looking at using the integrated WEB AS SOAP adapter instead of using the AF Sender SOAP adapter. While playing with this we encountered differences in the content returned through the SOAP fault generated by PI. A sample is below. Shouldn't the content of these SOAP faults be the same if the error that caused it is the same. Also the SOAP fault returned by the IE SOAP adapter is much more    useful in this particular case. Both errors below are the same, a conversion error from XML to ABAP took place in the inbound ABAP proxy framework of the back-end system.

I have been reading threads for hours without being able to find one that answers questions 1 or provides a blog that outlines the approach one should take for error handling in SOAP clients that consume PI Web Services (and covers both PISystem generated faults and faults raised in Proxies).
There may already be a blog or thread and I just missed it.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks. Dieter

Hi Dieter,
As Bhavesh already mentioned fault messages are used for application errors. The same is described in SAP XI help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dd/b7623c6369f454e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
In case of system error (e.g. field length too long in proxy call or error in XI/PI mapping) there seems to be no standard way of handling it and propagating the response to the consumer of webservice.
Each system error is not recognized by SOAP adapter and SOAP adapter exception is raised.
The only bizzare solution that I can see is developing an adapter module and transport wrong message to standard fault message before delivering it to adapter engine:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a4/f13341771b4c0de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Kind regards,
Wojciech
btw nice thread

Consuming a Web Service with WEB AS 6.40

Hello,
i try to consume a Webservice from the internet. I have configured the logical port and i created the client proxy as shown in the following real good weblog from
Thomas Jung.
/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/11/17/bsp-a-developers-journal-part-xiv--consuming-webservices-with-abap
But when i try to test the proxy in SE80 I retrieve the following error:
<CODECONTEXT>http://www.sap.com/xml_errorcodes</CODECONTEXT>
<CODE>SOAP:111</CODE>
<ERRORTEXT>Unallowed RFC-XML Tag (SOAP_EINVALDOC)</ERRORTEXT>
What's wrong here? Someone can help me?
Thanks for your help!
Klaus

We had the same error message for one of our Proxy Web Service calls.
We tried to use an RFC instead of the URL, and performed a TEST CONNECTION. And low and behold, we received an error message that was much more helpful than the "Unallowed RFC-XML Tag (SOAP_EINVALDOC)" message.
The problem for us was that the Server that we were trying to consume the Web service from was blocking the IP address of our Web Application Server.
We contacted the administrator, he verified that was the case, removed the restriction, and all is good now.
Here was the message we saw when we tested it in the RFC:
The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that are not allowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing computer is on this list. Please try the following: Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to view this directory or page.
Hope this helps!

Consuming a web service with header

Hi
I am trying to consume a web service in BIP.
But the problem is that the authentication is in the header of the SOAP, it does not take the values provided in username/password field in complex type service.
(However i am able to see the methods in the body of the web service.)
hence i get an error "username not specified"
how do i pass the credentials in the header of the soap?
I am using BIP 10.1.3.4

This is the output at the oc4j when I try to execute:
After WSS soapMessage = <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://sche
mas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
*<soap:Header></soap:Header>*
<soap:Body xmlns:ns1="urn:XYZ_Request">
<ns1:OpGet>
<ns1:Request_ID>000000000000019</ns1:Request_ID>
</ns1:OpGet>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Notice that Header is null. I want to pass the authentication in the header.

Not able to consume Spring web services form Apex.
