SOAP / HTTP Adapter requirment

Hello Folks,
Here native call means like you know in their workplace / in our workplace.
Here my requirment is like we are trying to setup integration between SAP ECC and CRM system from where integration would need to be setup to the SAP ECC system using SAP PI as the primary middleware.
CRM site is primarily based on a cloud computing environment and is a hosted product that provides access to the company data anywhere and anytime. There are no direct adapters coming from SAP that might be relevant from SAP PI standpoint. This would mean that we would have to make native calls to the CRM system either using SOAP or HTTP adapters? or i can go for Proxies?
I am little bit confused to take a desission so can you please just give me the better inputs
that will be really appriciable Follks !
Regards,
Ravi.

Hello friend,
yes you are right see here the scenario is like this
SAP ECC ->pi adapter--> webservice crm portal ---> Pi adapter -
> crm system in this situevation what is the best solution we can go for the scenario . here which adapers is fit to sender side and receiver side , i have little bit confuesed before start the scenario.
Thanks once again for the reply , valueble suggesstion if any ?
Regards,
Ravi.

SOAP/HTTP adapter for ABAP proxy

Hi,
Is it possible to send data to a SAP system using an inbound proxy and SOAP/ HTTP adapter.
As per my knowledge , XI adapter is generally used for Proxy communication.
If SOAP/HTTP can be used then what should be the message protocol.
There are 2 protocols allowed by SOAP adapter : SOAP 1.1 and XI3.0.
Can XI 3.0 be used here?

1. you will increase the burdon of message to include header and body with SOAP/HTTP
Use following link to decide which adapter should be used - http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/index?rid=/webcontent/uuid/70d8e250-e892-2b10-ab8a-d04433cf158b [original link is broken]

Make sure that the receiver webservice is up and running and in a state to receive the external calls. Confirm if the data you send is as per the requirement of the webservice and they haven't changed anything at their end.

HTTPS config in SOAP receiver adapter ?

Hi Guys,
I have configured the soap receiver adapter with the URL
*https://xxxx.abcd.com/xyzv/bbbb.asmx with the user authentication *
I have tested the url and the user and pw in the browser and they are working fine but the messages are failing the soap receiver adapter with the 401 unautorized error as the message from the Audit log in the RWB.
Delivery of the message to the application using connection SOAP_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: invalid content type for SOAP: TEXT/HTML; HTTP 401 Unauthorized: java.io.IOException: invalid content type for SOAP: TEXT/HTML; HTTP 401 Unauthorized. Setting message to status failed.
Do i need to configure the Java Stack for HTTPS ? The communicaion is between the XI system and a third part system internally.
any help would be appreciated ?
Thanks,

Hi Guys,
I have solved the problem and NTLM works with PI 7.0 but we need to configure soap axis adapter
The Windows NTLM authentication is supported by Axis's CommonsHTTPSender handler and consequently it is supported by the Axis adapter's corresponding handler com.sap.aii.adapter.axis.ra.transport.http.CommonsHTTPSender. Read about How Can I use CommonsHTTPSender as the transport handler? if CommonsHTTPSender is not enabled on your system. Once it is enabled, you can use com.sap.aii.adapter.axis.ra.transport.http.CommonsHTTPSender instead of default com.sap.aii.adapter.axis.ra.transport.http.HTTPSender as the transport handler in the module configuration and set the authentication setting to NTLM and enter usename as domain\username in the channel configuration
To use CommonsHTTPHandler, the optional Jakarta-Commons-Net, Jakarta-Commons-HttpClient, Jakarta-Commons-Codec libraries are required. Make sure that these libraries are available for the Axis adapter at the deployment check page If these components are not available, you will need to include the corresponding jar files (commons-codec-1.3.jar, commons-httpclient-3.0.jar, and commons-net-1.0.0-dev.jar from the Axis 1.4 release) in aii_af_axisprovider.sda and deploy this archive (see How to prepare aii_af_axisprovider.sda?).
The provider.xml file must include the jar-name entries for these jar files, as shown in:
 <jars>
 <jar-name>commons-net-1.0.0-dev.jar</jar-name>
 <jar-name>commons-codec-1.3.jar</jar-name>
 <jar-name>commons-httpclient-3.0.jar</jar-name>
 </jars>
Once you do all the above settings, NTLM works fine
Thanks,

HTTPS with Client Authentication in SOAP sender Adapter --SSL

We have an interface SOAP to file..which was working fine...now we recently switched to F5 load balancer and hence we were asked to chnage the settings in Communication channel.
After changing the communication channel to u201CHTTPS with Client authenticationu201D..client trggerd the some data but nothing seems to be coming in PI..
No trace in communication channel either.where else can we check for the incoming data ?
Is there any other setting required? why the data s not coming to PI?

HTTPS SOAP Sender Adapter Error

I have a SOAP client connecting to XI through HTTPS. SOAP Channel is configured to receive HTTPS request. We have been receiving messages successfully but the following error message occurs intermittently:
Error text from the Adapter Engine: java.security.AccessControlException: https scheme required
I don't see anything in SXMB_MONI. I don't see anything in RWB on the adapter message monitoring.
This scenarios is synchronous.

hi rodel,
You need to configure the HTTPS security level.

Could someone help me to clearly distinguish between SOAP and HTTP adapter?

In which scenarios we can go for HTTP adapter and when to go for SOAP adapter?

Hi Lekshmi !!
A SOAP message will be bundled inside the soap envelope.HTTP is not an adapter in adapter engine whereas soap is an adapter i.e, HTTP doesn't require a communication channel where as SOAP requires.You can send soap messages using some SOAP client.
SOAP Adapter is used to xchange SOAP messages bw remote clients and webservices....
check this link for more differences..
SOAP and HTTP adapter
When you need to Send Data to XI from a Webservice , your SOAP adapter is used.
HTTP adapter is used when you want to post a HTTP request message from a web application to XI.
How can i make use of SOAP Sender Adapter without using any tools like XML Spy etc....
XML SPy is used as a TEST tool when you are sending SOAP information to XI. TO actually send data , you need to configure a webservice and construct a SOAP request message and post the data .
we use SOAP adapter when we need to connect to remote system or use Webservices in these cases we use SOAP adapter.
HTTP Adapter is used by extenal systems to connect to Intergartin server using native HTTP Interface.
the http adapter is a service which is directly connected to integration engine. Adapter Framework (Java) isnt involved. It is much more performant than SOAP adapter.
The SOAP adapter is written in Java and is responsible for the SOAP envelope around the real XML message. You can build/remove that envelope as well in the mapping and use instead http adapter. But standard for webservices is using SOAP adapter.

SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPT

Hi there,
I am trying to publish a file from SAP as web service using XI and SOAP Adapter.
I am using ABAP proxy to get the data into XI.
Designing and Configuration in XI has no problems because when i use File adapter the data is trasmitted to FTP server.
But when I used SOAP Reciever adapter I am getting following error in RWB
Delivery of the message to the application using connection SOAP_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Error during parsing of SOAP header.

What i am missing here? How should I solve this problem?
Any help is appreciated,
Thx,

Say there's a bapi/rfc that you want to call on an R/3 backend (e.g. 4.6c). On it's own, the R/3 system cannot expose the rfc/bapi as a web service, but XI can. So in this case, the scenario would be:
WS client -> XI -> R/3
When XI "exposes" a web service, it is exposing a service for a receiving system (in the above example, the R/3 system). XI itself does not provide or contain the service implementation. When XI exposes a web service, it is always done via the sender soap adapter (i.e. if soap adapter is used). Receiver soap adapter is used to call or consume an actual web service from an external application.

WSRM Adapter replaced with soap in PO7.4. Getting error "Response message contains an errorXIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Internal Server Error"

Hello All,
We have scenario proxy->pi->webservice. In older versions of PI system they used wsrm adapter at receiver side and it's working fine.
Receiver interface is asynchronous. So no response structute is present and receiver service is business component(since receiver is a third party).
During migration, we have replaced the receiver adapter with SOAP adapter and used message protocol as SOAP 1.1 but the message is failing and in communication channel it is showing error "Response message contains an errorXIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Internal Server Error". In this case the receiver interface is stateless xi 3.0 compatible(re using the old), after changing it to just stateless also issue persists.
In target url field if i prefix the url with "http" then above mentioned error is occurring otherwise if i use the hostname:port/path.. then it is giving error
"soap: Call failed: com.sap.aii.af.sdk.xi.srt.BubbleException: Unsupported protocol". So maintaing the url as http://hostname:port/pat.....
As in old channel wsrm channel there is no userid and password, i haven't given any userid/pwd in receiver channel.
used the bean sap.com/com.sap.aii.af.soapadapter/XISOAPAdapterBean with parameters
Module Key = soap
Parameter Name = noSOAPMakeSysErrFromResponseFault
Parameter Value = false
and
xmbws.No SOAPIgnoreStatus = true
but not successful.
Please help me. I got stcuk here.

Hello Jannus,
The connectivity is working fine. Network team has confirmed it. I doubt that any strucutre(header) difference might be present in message when sending with wsrm adapter compared to sending with soap adapter.
Please let me know the exact difference between soap and wsrm functionality in receiving end.
By considering the structure issue, i have checked the "do not use soap envelope" check box, then i got error "Response message contains an errorXIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 415 Unsupported Media Type"
Then i used message transform bean, but not successful.

Using custom http headers in SOAP sender adapter

Hi,
my problem is exactly the same as reported [here|Re: SOAP Sender - Extract Header Values;] and [here|Variable Transport Binding - Soap Sender;
Basically I'd like to send through the soap sender adapter some custom http headers. I check the necessary options in the advanced tab (set adapter-specific message attributes and variable transport binding), and in the variable header one I put x-StoreCode, which is the same http header I send to PI.
But I won't see anything in the dynamic configuration section when the message is persisted in PI.
Very surprised that I've seen this issue is a common problem others have faced before without success.
Thanks!

Hi Michal,
the extra info I'm trying to send separated from the message is an http header, not part of the query string.
If I incorporate the extra info as a parameter to the query string like this, for example:
http://host:50000/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?senderParty=&senderService=S1&receiverParty=&receiverService=&interface=Int&interfaceNamespace=urn:test&x-StoreCode=13&nosoap=true
Then I can see the value in the dynamic configuration section:
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/SOAP" name="SQueryString">senderParty=&senderService=S1&receiverParty=&receiverService=&interface=Int&interfaceNamespace=urn:test&x-StoreCode=13&nosoap=true</SAP:Record>
But what I'm trying to do shoould be possible, according to sap help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/fc/5ad93f130f9215e10000000a155106/content.htm (section Define Adapter-Specific Message Attributes)

Polling with HTTPS (SOAP sender adapter)

Hi,
we are using SAP PI 7.1 EHP 1 and we have to set up a scenario, in which a business partner is going to send us IDocs over HTTPS.
Now our security team has objections, that incoming messages could be too risky. So we have to figure out if it's also possible, to set up a polling over HTTPS. Unfortunately there's no availability to insert an URL in the SOAP sender adapter, so I think it's NOT possible.
Any other ideas or agreements?
Thanks in advance,
Juergen

I think SOAP sender adapter supports HTTPS (w/ and w/o client certificate) ... But you'll need to complete the security setup (root CA, etc) before, and then give the "to-be-called" URL to yout partner.

HTTP Call to SOAP Sender Adapter

Hi All,
I'm working on a scenario where i plan to use SOAP Sender Adapter for receiving Plain HTTP Calls from the client.
The purpose behind this exercise is to have control over the message flow in case of sender HTTP protocol in XI.
I configured a SOAP channel and used the option 'DO Not Use SOAP Envelope'. But when i post the message to the adapter engine using a HTTP client, it fails.
Can somebody guide me in this case.
Regards,
Anurag

Hi,
>>>But when i post the message to the adapter engine using a HTTP client, it fails.
with which error ?

Hi all, Please suggest a case where there is a requirement for new SOAP sender adapter module. I wanted to develop a module but in my current project i am unable to find any such requirement.

Hi all, Please suggest a case where there is a requirement for new SOAP sender adapter module. I wanted to develop a module but in my current project i am unable to find any such requirement. So please give me inputs for the same..
Thank you,

You can try converting a synchrnous soap call to asynchronous using a custom module
Here your module will send a response back to the sender system and make an asynchronous call forward

Plain HTTP Adapter vs SOAP Adapter with regards to SSL

Hi,
I need to setup communication channles within XI to send and receive secure xml. I am confused after reading the XI documentation and the some of the discussion forums on SDN.
Can anyone clarify the following:
1) Does the plain HTTP Adapter support SSL? According to the XI documentation is does NOT? Have I miss read it?
2) This being the case, the only way to send and receive secure XML is to use the XI/SOAP Adapter?
Thanx for your help.
Cheers
Yackeen

Hi Yackeen,
no, that's not true. The plain HTTP Adapter supports SSL. No problem.

Udo
