Problem with RFC adapter (JCO Exception RFC logon failure)

Hi ,
I have SOAP to RFC scenario.
Scenario with same configuration (RFC adapter) is working in QA system.but when I have transported to PRODUCTION system
it is showing
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: RfcAdapter: receiver channel has static errors: can not instantiate RfcPool caused by: com.sap.aii.af.rfc.RfcAdapterException: error initializing RfcClientPool:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.repository.RfcRepositoryException: can not connect to destination system due to: com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (103) RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE:
I have gievn max conn=10 ;Refresh the cache also
and checked Roles and authorization also but still I am getting the same error.

Hi ,
I have created all the objects manually. and it is working.
now it is showing other error when I am sending the messages from SOAP side it is showing

I have refershed cache also both Complete and SLD.
but nothing is wroking
Please advice.

  • RFC Adapter - JCO Exception - Please Urgent

    I am developing a scenario from File--RFC integration.  I am using File and RFC adapter to perform this transaction.
    The File Adapter is picking the file properly and the trnaformation (Mapping Program) is also happening properly.  But the RFC is throwing the following error.  I got this error info from the Runtime Workbench.
    Exception caught by adapter framework: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: JCO.Exception while calling ZPS_XI_ACTIVITY_CREATE in remote system (RfcClient[BAPI_CreateActivity_Receiver]):com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (104) RFC_ERROR
    Error Delivery of the message to the application using connection AFW failed, due to: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: JCO.Exception while calling ZPS_XI_ACTIVITY_CREATE in remote system (RfcClient[BAPI_CreateActivity_Receiver]):com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (104) RFC_ERROR.
    The RFC is executing without any problem when I execute this from the transaction SE37.
    I have created communication channel in Integration Directory in appropriate manner. 
    I also created RFC destination in the XI system (TCODE SM59) and the same is using in the "Receiver Determiiation - Service".
    I have not done any configuration at SAP R/3 side.  Is any config required at R/3 end for this scenario - please let me know.
    Please throw some light on this.  I will greatly appreciate your help.

    Friends,
      Please suggest on this vague problem that I am facing.  Your help would be greatly appreciated.
    1. I am using SAP-PS (Projects & Systems) BAPI 'BAPI_BUS2002_ACT_CREATE_MULTI' to create the activities for a project.  According to this BAPI documentation,
    - First call 'BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION' before make this BAPI call
    - After BAPI call, we should use 'BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT' and 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.
    2. Hence, I have developed Z-Func Module with Initialize, BAPI call - then Pre Commit and Commit.
    3. This is executing from SE37 without any issues.  Other parameters to make a remote call is also set properly.
    4. To make sure that, I made a JCO call from Java Program using PDK for Java.  This is also working fine.
    5. But when I used this in the XI scenario (File-XI-RFC) this is showing ABAP dump and this is invoking from Pre-Commit module.
    I couldn't figure it out why it's happening like this.
    I did lot of troubleshooting and the details are as follows for your reference.
    1. The mapping program is working fine without any issues.  I confirmed this by writing these input values to the file (ofcourse lot of pain) inside the function module.  All the values have been parsed by XI and coming to Func Module as expected.
    2. No issues with logical destinations (SM59).
    3. I have tried other options such as clearing the Cache...etc.
    Hence, please throw up some light.  If any body tried with these kind of BAPI (needs initialize, pre-commit and commit) I really appreciate your effort.
    <b>Can we enable the debugging of func module when the XI makes a call...?</b>  - I tried with Standard options that seems doesn't work.

  • Problem with FTP Adapter in creating a new Folder

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement in which a BPEL process shud create a folder named as sysdate dynamically and write a
    CSV file into that.(ex: PO/2010-03-09/PO_1.csv).I created a header variable for Oubound FTP adapter and
    passing the file directory as concat('PO/',xp20:current-date(),'/') to outbound header directory variable.Problem is FTP
    adapter is not creating the sysdate folder its says:1.check u have privileges 2.file name is too long....Blah....Blah.
    But i have all the privileges for that user.If i manually create the sysdate folder the FTP adapter is placing the CSV
    file.The same works fine with file adapter...but i need to use FTP since the FTP server can change in future.Seems to
    be a problem with FTP adapter....can some one help.

  • Problem with FIle Adapter

    Hi
    We r facing typical problem with file adapter.
    Lets say there are 30 files to be processed  by placing an copy in arichive folder by file adapter  based on pooling 
    parameters.
    All the 30  files are picked up and we can see the copies in archive folder.
    But when we go to RWB and check the audit log,
    there we could see only 25 files , the 5 files are missing.
    no trace found therre about the 5 files.
    This is happening only some times and not to all the files placed in the FTP. Later when the same file is placed back from the Archive folder to the Source folder, the file is being picked and processed succesfully.
    unfortunately this is happening on Production server
    Any pointers which could trouble shoot this issue.
    Regards
    shekar chandra

    Hi,
    Couple of thing which you can try....
    1. Use EOIO QoS and check if you still face the issue.
    Is some program or application writing files to the directory? If yes I would recommend the use of a temporary name to write the files and then rename them.
    Sometimes when an external application connects via FTP and transfers the files...
    The file could be picked up by the adapter poll even before the transfer of data is done.
    Which is why you will find that the file is archived but there is no xml message created for the same in the Integration engine.
    Try increasing the poll interval. This helps sometimes.

  • Problem with BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 using JCo on IDES

    Problem with BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 using JCo on IDES
    Hello everyone,

    Hello Brian,
    Thanks for your pointer. Actually The customer's reference number i was providing in the PI_COPYREFERENCE structure was a sold-to party customer and it uses external customer number assignment. When i used "New Internet Customer" (that doesnt use external assignment by default) as customer's account group, the customer was created successfully and assigned customer number was returned.
    I want to ask now how could we give a customer number in the BAPI as i am unable to find any such column in any of the tables. (Customer number is an "out" parameter so it can only return the number of created customer). Secondly, how to chnage the external assignment property of a particular account group (like sold-to party). i.e, how could we change the account group configurations through SAP GUI??

    Can you pls. confirm whether the mapping of your XSD fields & BAPI fields are in same sequence. I mean hierarchy is same or not.
    Just to verify, as you said you are using Sync scenario that means you are using ONE Sender Soap & ONE Reciever RFC adapter.

  • Configuring receiver RFC adapter to use RFC destination

    Hello,
       I have been doing some digging, but I can't find a solid answer on how to configuring a receiver RFC adapter to use an existing RFC destination to call a 4/6C R/3 backend system...  Our scenario is to WS --> SOAP --> RFC which is up and running in production just fine on NW 7.0, SP12.
       I ask this question because we, as a company, do not like to maintain passwords in multiple systems.  That is necessary when we use the receiver RFC adapter now since SNC is a distant pipe dream for us and we would like to use an existing RFC destination that is set up to call the backend system using a logon ticket.
       I checked the relevant links I could find below, but I can not resolve the answer from them.  Has anyone set this up successfully?  This link (RFC Destination type RFC Receiver Adapter?) mentions it briefly, but it does not go into any length on how to set it up.
    Thanks!

    Re: Asynchronous RFC call

    Hi John !!
    I suggest you to create a new user, without dialog access in your ECC system to be used exclusively by the XI system to access ECC. And then, always use this user in all RFC receiver adapter communication channels.

  • Problem with Policy "Display information about previous logons during user logon"

    Hello,
    I've a problem with the Policy "Setting Display information about previous logons during user logon".
    It is applied correctly on computer, but I can't login anymore and message "Security policies on this computer are set to display information about the last interactive logon. Windows could not retrieve this information. Please contact your network administrator
    for assistance" is appearing.
    My home test domain has 2008 R2 functionality level since months, and I've raised my company infra level functionality to 2012 this morning. Both domain are making the same error.
    This is non-sense, so any idea how to troubleshoot it ? Thanks in advance ! ;-)
    PS : I was able to remove it in order to login again, no worries on this one...

    Did you follow the guidance in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd446680%28v=ws.10%29.aspx?
    Especially the following paragraph - the setting has to be applied to DCs and Members...:
    You configure last interactive logon through a GPO. You must configure the following setting for the GPO with domain controllers in its scope of management if you want to report last interactive logon information to the directory service:
    Computer Configuration| Policies | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Logon Options | Display information about previous logons during user logon = Enabled
    If you want to display last interactive logon information to the user, you must configure this setting for both the GPO with domain controllers in its scope of management as well as any GPO with Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista client
    computers in its scope of management.

  • Problems with File adapter

    Hi All
    I am facing some problems with XI system. XI production server was restarted couple of days back. From that time, 1 file is not reaching its destination. When i go to communication channel monitoring, i see this  message for all the communication channels with file adapter "No adapter registered for this channel".
    But, communication channels with SOAP adapter are working fine, and the corresponding files are reaching its destinations. So, what should i do to rectify this probelm? Do we have to restart XI server onceagain? Is there anything pirticular, to be careful about, while restarting XI system?
    Many Thanks in Advance

    Hi Chandra shekar,
    Plz try to do the  following steps:
    1)Try after restarting the Java Stack.
    2)Try after SLD cache.
    To clear the SLD cache, from the Integration Builder main menu, choose Environment ® Delete Cache for SLD Data.
    Once we have deleted the cache for SLD data, accessing objects in the SLD may take longer than usual initially.
    This will help you to find SP Level

  • Encoding problem with Application adapter for OEBS

    Hello All!
    We going to pass value via app adapter from EBS Forms to Content Server page. Link to documentation Configuring the Managed Attachments Solution - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
    We have done all setting, and this function is working now .
    It is good working with English letters and numbers, but when we try to use Cyrillic we have a problem with Encoding in Content server page.
    Data on Oebs table use ''CL8ISO8859P5'', but service xml for adapter has allays a title with  charset=utf-8
    System are:
    OEBS 12.1.3
    Webcenter Content 11.1.1.6
    Adapter 11.1.1.6 + patch 16463891
    Could you help us?

    Hi Denis ,
    Try this solution :
    1) Log on to the APPS EBS schema and re-create the AXF_SOAPCall function using the following SQL:
    create or replace
    function AXF_SOAPCall (url varchar2, soapmsg varchar2, secure varchar2, walletid varchar2, walletpass varchar2) return varchar2 as
    http_req utl_http.req;
    http_resp utl_http.resp;
    response_env varchar2(32767);
    v_newcharset VARCHAR2(40 BYTE) :='UTF8';
    v_Dbcharset VARCHAR2(40 BYTE);
    v_Raw1 RAW(32767);
    v_Stmt1 VARCHAR2(6000 BYTE);
    begin
    v_newcharset := 'AMERICAN_AMERICA.'|| v_newcharset ;
    v_Dbcharset := 'AMERICAN_AMERICA.'||utl_i18n.map_charset(fnd_profile.value('ICX_CLIENT_IANA_ENCODING'),0,1);
    v_Raw1 := UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW (soapmsg);
    v_Raw1 := UTL_RAW.CONVERT (v_Raw1,v_newcharset,v_Dbcharset);
    if ( secure = 'true' or secure = 'TRUE' ) then
    utl_http.set_wallet (walletid, walletpass);
    end if;
    http_req := utl_http.begin_request(url , 'POST', utl_http.HTTP_VERSION_1_1);
    utl_http.set_header(http_req, 'Content-Type', 'text/xml; charset=utf-8');
    utl_http.set_header(http_req, 'Content-Length', utl_raw.length(v_Raw1));
    utl_http.write_raw(http_req, v_Raw1);
    http_resp := utl_http.get_response(http_req);
    utl_http.read_text(http_resp, response_env);
    dbms_output.put_line('Response: ');
    dbms_output.put_line(response_env);
    utl_http.end_response(http_resp);
    return response_env;
    end;
    2) Log on to the EBS and confirm that you can now open the Managed Attachments window for all records & forms, regardless of the use (& length) of multibyte string values.
    This was caused by multibyte characters used with non UTF-8 language strings .
    I presumed that you are seeing that when "Managed Attachments" option through the ZOOM button from an E-Business Suite (EBS) forms, nothing happens.If you have a support id then check the following note : 1409703.1 from MyOracleSupport portal.
    Hope this helps.

  • Satellite A200 - Problems with AC adapter

    Hi,
    The problem concerns an Satellite A200 (PSAF6A-02H01N).
    Recently there has been problems with the Laptop taking several attempts to start up Vista, it would lock up while loading or just crash and freeze just after loading Vista.
    But Once it was up and running the laptop would happily work for hours with the AC adapter plugged in.
    The problem has now got worse and the laptop will not finish loading Vista without crashing.
    We have now narrowed the it down to only having a problem when the AC power adapter is plugged in.
    The Laptop battery will charge normally with the AC adapter plugged in and the Laptop in standby or switched off.
    The problem still exists with the AC adapter plugged in and the battery removed.
    The notebook will start up and run perfectly with the battery in and no AC adapter connected. Once the AC adapter is plugged in the Laptop will show that the battery is charging then after a few seconds it will crash or freeze and the only escape is a complete shutdown.
    The laptop will only run under battery power for about 30mins max.
    I have checked the Voltage output of the AC adapter and this appears to be a consistant 19.4 Volts.
    Is it just an AC adapter problem or does the problem lie with the laptop?
    Thanks in advance..
    Gaz.

    Crashing/BSOD's can be caused by many things. The first thing to do is check the RAM and HDD for problems.
    Test the RAM for errors. You can use the free Memtest utility:
    1) Go to http://www.memtest.org/#downiso and download the "Pre-Compiled Bootable ISO (.zip)"
    2) Open the ZIP file and extract the ISO file to a temporary folder.
    3) Burn the ISO to a blank CD using an "Image-to-Disc" or "Bootable CD" project in your CD/DVD burning software (dont use a normal Data Project).
    4) Insert the Memtest CD into your laptop and turn it on, press F12 to launch the boot menu, and select "CD".
    Test the Hard Disk for errors by using DFT.
    DFT Download: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT
    Download the ISO File and burn it to a CD-R Disc (There is also a Floppy Disk version if that's easier).
    If you dont know how to burn an ISO file, read this guide: http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm
    Restart your laptop and boot from the DFT Disc.
    Choose the "Advanced" Test and let it run (it may take an hour or so).
    If you see a red message box, the HDD is faulty.
    An error code 0x70 means there are bad sectors and the HDD needs replacing.

  • Problems with MagSafe Adapter including sparks

    When I plug my adapter into the plug socket I always see white sparks when plugging it into an extension lead. Is that normal or safe?
    Also I have been having problems with the magsafe as when plugging it into my Mac Book Pro it doesn't always charge and you have to fiddle around with the wire to get it to start charging or unplug it a few times. I am also finding the magsafe bit is getting extremely hot as is the Mac Book Pro itself. Even when using it for simple web browsing. The CPU sometimes reaches 90° as well.
    I have also been experiencing quite a lot of freezing / crashing / lagging on my mac book recently as well. Could this be related?
    Should I take this to an apple store?

    I have had a similar problem. There are a few questions you might want to answer:
    1. Does your MBP have any fraying cables or wires? If so, you should replace the Magsafe power adapter as quickly as possible. This can damage your laptop, eventually.
    2. Is your "Magsafe" an original unit? If it's a knock-off, this could account for electrical instability.
    3. Does your Magsafe power adapter take power directly from the wall socket, or do you have multiple plugs? Sparks or heat indicate that the adapter is taking in a large amount of energy - that may not be fully grounded.
    I mention these questions because I hope to spur more questions, which might eventually solve your problem. I have no idea whether the freezing and crashing is related to your problem, but it's certainly possible. I would strongly suggest writing detailed notes of the problem, and then proceed to the Apple Store.
