RFC to XI: Payload comes in garbled

We finished and tested our scenario in dev and have moved the code on the abap side as well as the XI pieces to Test.
When sending an RFC from our SAP test system, if I look in the SXMB_MONI, the first node of inbound message payload is already garbled even before getting to the message mapping. The first part of it looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:Z_BAPI_PRICING_SEND xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <PRODUCT_PRICE>
- <item>
<PROD_ID>000000000001003484</PROD_ID>
<PRC_TYP_CD>9912</PRC_TYP_CD>
<CNTRY_CD> e<</CNTRY_CD>
<EFF_BEGIN_DT>0000-00-00</EFF_BEGIN_DT>
<EFF_END_DT>0000-00-00</EFF_END_DT>
<PRC_AMT>0</PRC_AMT>
</item>
the prod_id is ok
prc_type should have been 'WHL'
country should have been 'US'
etc etc.
It's like the data in the payload doesn't match up with the xml. In our dev environment all works normally.
any thoughts?
Thanks!

Pete,
Thanks so much! That was exactly the problem. I saved the RFC Dest as unicode and it is now working. How does the point thing work? I just signed up. Do I have any points to award with?

Saving file, but jpg and gif comes out garbled

Would someone please help me? I'm at my wit's end here. I'm writing a program that reads a file and saves it, but it needs to read a maximum of 512 bytes before it starts to write. It needs to work with both text files and images.
- It works fine with text files.
- It works fine with bmp images.
- It works fine with jpg and gif images under 512 bytes.
- With a jpg or gif over 512 bytes, it comes out all garbled, but the same file size as the original.
One thing is really confoozling me. When the image comes out garbled, I tried changing the files for both the original and the copy into text files by changing the file extension to .txt. Both the text files were identical! So if the data is identical, why is the copy not showing the same image as the original?
import java.io.*;
     public class SaveFile{
          public static final int BUFSIZE = 512;
          public static final String LIBRARY = "C:\\";
          static int totalRead = 0; //Total number of bytes in buffer (Max BUFSIZE).
          static int fileSize = 0; //Size of whole file.
              static String fileName = ""; //Name of file.
             static char[] data = new char[BUFSIZE]; //The data in the file.
          public static void main(String[] args){
                        //Bytes already read by the buffer.
                  int charsRead = BUFSIZE;
                      //Takes name of file from main argument.
                     for(int i=0; i < args.length; i++)
                         fileName = fileName + args;
//Name of file including directory.
          String fetchFile = LIBRARY + fileName;
          File file1 = new File(fetchFile);
          * Reads a string from the file to data (char array).
               BufferedReader reader =
new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file1), BUFSIZE);
               BufferedWriter writer =
new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
               //Will continue as long as buffer is full.
               while (charsRead == BUFSIZE){
                    charsRead = reader.read(data, 0, BUFSIZE);
                    if (charsRead != -1) {
                         totalRead = charsRead;
                         write(writer);
                         fileSize = fileSize + totalRead;
               reader.close();
               writer.close();
          System.out.println((fileSize) + " bytes read and saved as " + fileName);
     * Writes data to a new file.
     public static void write(BufferedWriter writer) {
               for (int j = 0; j < totalRead; j++) {
                    writer.write(data[j]);
I stripped away the directory selection and error handling to make it simpler.

I am facing an issue in 'RFC2JDBC' scenario which is mentioned below:
here our scenario is 'RFC2JDBC'.here our 'RFC' is having 2 fields in tables parameter
i.e. empno & empname.
the results of the 'RFC' is coming as:

i am triggering the 'rtfc' through a program.
when i am triggering the 'RFC',in monitor of PI it's coming as sucessful.however in the payload one of the field value is missing i.e. employee name.(same also updating in the legacy database)
in the payload it's appearing as:

Hi rasmiraj tripathy,
I am also facing the same problem (Sender or Payload is missing) while integrating R3 to B1 using IDOC. When I resend IDOC, it capture by B1iSN but doesn't work, it gives me error. When I look into xml document, it is found that there is no receiver payload.
My R3 system is non-unicode and it is difficult to change it to unicode as it requires updation.
Can you please confirm that this error is coming due to Non-Unicode, and can be resolved by setting it to Unicode.
Note: There is no double definition of any object.

RFC creates no Payload

Hi there
I've got a flat file to rfc scenario and when I send through a file it gets processed successfully but in sxmb_moni the technical routing payload is empty. If I test the file in the mapping it creates the rfc with all it's nodes.
Here's an example of the payload in ecc.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns2:_-POSDW_-CREATE_TRANSACTIONS_EXT xmlns:ns2="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
<IT_TRANSACTION />
</ns2:_-POSDW_-CREATE_TRANSACTIONS_EXT>
and there's no errors as well. and no trace of the rfc in r/3
Any ideas on resolving this?
Thanks,
Jan

Adaptive RFC 2 gives error: com/sap/ide/jco/service/internal/R3Service

Hi,
I've run into the following problem about NWDS. This happens as I create a Model. It appears there is a new version of the Adaptive RFC Model, which is called Adaptive RFC 2 Model.
1. Right click on Models, and select Create.
2. Double Click on Adaptive RFC 2 Model
3. The error pops up. It says "An error has occurred. See error log for more details. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError". Then if you click details you get "An error has occurred. See error log for more details. com/sap/ide/jco/service/internal/R3Service "
If you know which log to have a look, or what this error is about please let me know urgently. Any help if much appreciated.
Thanks,

SOAP - PI- R/3 RFC Scenario RFC parameters are not comming

Hi Experts,
I created one scenario as SOAP ->PI 7.1 -> R/3 RFC call.
When I am testing this scenario Backend RFC is getting called but somehow RFC parameters are coming as blank. In XSMB_MONI it is creating two messages as successful one with correct payload. But when I put debug code at the start of RFC , it is going to the debug code and input parameter values are showing as empty. Please tell me where can I check?
Thanks,
Siva Rama

Hi Siva,
Please check in the SXMB_MONI of the receiver SAP System.
If the parameters are getting populated here then it must be passed to the RFC.
Make sure you have imported the RFC from the receiver system itself.

Piyush

The RFC connection when tested it is ok .. the connection is established.
Please suggest.

Word 2007 file PDF -- Text comes through garbled!

I'd love some help with this if possible; I can't seem to figure out why the text becomes garbled when it's converted into a PDF, but i do know that it doesn't always happen during the conversion stage. It may convert just fine, then later when i re-open the PDF it's garbled.
I've attached an example so you all know what i'm talking about
Please help, i can never reach a final draft if the text keeps becoming unreadable!
-Alice

Thanks for the suggestion Bill.
You lost me a little bit in the middle of your explanation, but I think i found what you were talking about.
I posted another picture of the screen i found with Control + D in the PDF.
Also, I have found that i can edit the text with the advanced tool for text editing, but when i remove the extra spaces that were added, it ends up making the right hand side of my paragraph no longer uniform... as everything was previously aligned: justified... so i don't think i can fix it with that editor, unless there is a way to set alignment in in Acrobat?
Thanks again!

Why do text messages from one att phone come in garbled like %^&KYY

my girlfriend has a blackberry storm 9550.
all works well with only one exception.
when her sister, who has an ATT phone, sends her text messages they appear to be all scrambled.
no other messages from anybody else ever comes in like that....any ideas why this happens?
this is driving both of them crazy and we dont know how to fix the problem.
thanks
Rock

Also ask her if she's trying to use any strange characters in the message. Generally, that's a problem the other way (iPhone emoji often show up as gibberish or cause complete message corruption on non-iphones) but, it's worth a question.
Best of luck.

When I convert a pdf to word it comes out garbled (can't use)

how do I fix this

Hi,
Could you give me more information regarding the problem?
1. Which application/service did you use for converting the PDF file?
2. What kinds of font type and font encoding are used in the PDF file?
(Please check this in File > Properties > Fonts in Reader/Acrobat)
Thank you,

Pages printed from email come out garbled or in code--how to fix?

When I use my printer to print from windows programs, it is fine. When I try to print from an email program, the copy is overprinted and random, as if in some sort of code.

Probably related to this outstanding Bug. <br />

Based upon this comment - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454532#c117 - it looks like a fix might be coming in Firefox 8.0.

Sometimes, when printing a received e-mail, it comes out garbled. Why?

This only happens while in Firefox. Same e-mail prints OK when switching to Internet Explorer browser. It is not the same e-mail sender. How can I fix this problem when using Firefox?

I serious am not aware of a why, and the color has no special meaning.
The only possibility I can think of is in the mail list, a pink color is associated with the tag later. As for changing it, it might be a synchronization from a phone or tablet that shares the account

Color Renders come out garbled

Hi. Been having a very bizarre problem with Color 1.0.4. Certain files in my project have been rendering out with strange results. Here's a picture of what it looks like (original file on the left, Color render on the right): http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/3444/problemgn.png
I encoded all of my media to Apple ProRes 422 before bringing it into Color and I'm rendering out in the same format. If anyone has any insight on this problem, I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Looks like (although you have a consistent codec) you have different resolution settings between some clips. COLOR will often "mosaic" the image to fill in the empty spaces.

Java field imported to ABAP RFC

Hello,
I'm using the following code in a User Defined Function within XI 3.0 and I'm having difficulty getting the correct "message id" imported into the RFC.
I've tried changing the data type of I_MESSAGEID. Using this message id and the following data types I get different results:
I_MESSAGEID should look like this: 4989D6DBCE5B4C85E10000000A5060AC
but when...
I_MESSAGEID is set to CHAR(32): Ó倃၏טℶ፝㓓
I_MESSAGEID is set to RAW(16): E3DF01DB7D03DB6E3ADF9E84135D34D3
I_MESSAGEID is set to String: ######n:ߞ##]4#
Here is my java code:
public String Create_ZTOR_Rec(String MsgID,String MsgDate,String MsgTime,String PONum,Container container){
String content = "";
MappingTrace importanttrace;
importanttrace = container.getTrace();
// filling the string with our RFC-XML (with values)
String m = "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><ns0:Z_UDF_CREATE_ZTOR_REC xmlns:ns0="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">";
m = m + "<I_MESSAGEID>" + MsgID + "</I_MESSAGEID>";
m = m + "<I_EBELN>" + PONum + "</I_EBELN>";
m = m + "<I_ERDAT>" + MsgDate + "</I_ERDAT>";
m = m + "<I_UZEIT>" + MsgTime + "</I_UZEIT>";
m = m + "</ns0:Z_UDF_CREATE_ZTOR_REC>";
RfcAccessor accessor = null;
ByteArrayOutputStream out = null;
try
// 1. Determine a channel (Business system, Communication channel)
Channel channel = LookupService.getChannel("XI","GeneratedReceiverChannel_RFC");
// 2. Get a RFC accessor for a channel.
accessor = LookupService.getRfcAccessor(channel);
Any Ideas how I can convert this message id in Java to import it properly?
Thanks,
Matt

It is a good document and I noticed the link to Help.sap.com explained why writing to/updating a table through java mapping is not a good idea but in this case I do not have an option.
I was unable to find anything to explain why all the other strings are processed in the RFC but the message id gets garbled.
When I test the RFC manually it works properly. When I attach the message id to the outgoing document it appears correctly. So the error appears to be happening here:
// 3. Create a xml input stream representing the function module request message.
InputStream inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(m.getBytes());
// 4. Create xml payload
XmlPayload payload = LookupService.getXmlPayload(inputStream);
// 5. Execute Record Create.
Payload result = accessor.call(payload);
InputStream in = result.getContent();
Does anyone know how I can get the correct message id into my RFC?
Thanks,
Matt
