Synchronous SOAP: Get fault message on ABAP side

Hi,
I've a synchronous ABAP Proxy => PI 7.11 => SOAP scenario.
The SOAP receiver is a third party application using AXIS 1.4.
When I call the SOAP receiver with bad input via SOAP UI I receive an error message like that:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
 <soapenv:Body>
 <soapenv:Fault>
 <faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode>
 <faultstring>com.ZZZ.exception.ZZZException: Employee not found: 9999911111</faultstring>
 <detail>
 <com.ZZZ.exception.ZZZException xsi:type="ns1:ZZZException" xmlns:ns1="http://exception.ZZZ.com"/>
 <ns2:hostname xmlns:ns2="http://xml.apache.org/axis/">server.YYY.com</ns2:hostname>
 </detail>
 </soapenv:Fault>
 </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
When I call the SOAP receiver through my ABAP proxy, I just get this exception message in SXI_MONI:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<com.ZZZ.exception.ZZZException xmlns:ns1="http://exception.ZZZ.com"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="ns1:ZZZException"/>
Nevertheless I see the error in SXI_MONI:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

<SAP:Error SOAP:mustUnderstand="1" xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
 <SAP:Category>Application</SAP:Category>
 <SAP:Code area="SOAP">FAULT</SAP:Code>
 <SAP:P1>http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/</SAP:P1>
 <SAP:P2>Server.userException</SAP:P2>
 <SAP:P3/>
 <SAP:P4/>
 <SAP:AdditionalText>com.ZZZ.exception.ZZZException: Employee not found: 9999911111</SAP:AdditionalText>
 <SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="">com.ZZZ.exception.ZZZException</SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage>
 <SAP:Stack/>
 <SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
In the WSDL of the SOAP receiver there's just the ZZZException without fields faultcode or faultstring:
<complexType name="ZZZException">
<sequence/>
</complexType>
Do I have to add the fields faultcode or faultstring to the WSDL myself?
I tried the following, but it didn't work:
<complexType name="ZZZException" abstract="true">
 <xsd:sequence>
 <xsd:element name="faultstring" type="soapenc:string">
 </xsd:sequence>
</complexType>
Thanks in advance!

Hi Eddie -
Do I have to add the fields faultcode or faultstring to the WSDL by myself?
>>> No. Even though you add - it doesn't work as it's the webservice which returns the message.
For sending the fault messages, Have a look at the below blog -

BPM synchronous send step - Fault message extraction

Hello Experts,
I am developing a BPM with Asynch RFC -> synch Webservice -> Asynch RFC scenario.
I have defined fault message in the synchronous interface used in the send step for web service, and also defined
exception branch where an alert is thrown.
In the alert, i want to send the fault text from the fault message. How can i do that??
Thanks

Hi Mona,
SOAP adapter doesnt support fault messages.
check stephan's reply @ How catch the SOAP Fault Message ?
> SOAP adapter does not support fault message.
> Any fault is treated as error.
> fault messages are only supported for XI messages (ABAP or Java proxies) and RFCs.
Fault message handling is not possible inside BPM.

IDoc to SOAP Receiver Fault Message Handling?

Hi,
I am working on IDoc to SOAP Scenario (IDoc -> PI -> SOAP). It is in async mode without BPM. This works fine as long as there is no error on the SOAP receiver side. How to handle the falut message raised by the SOAP receiver and send it back the SAP ECC.
Do I need to use ALEAUD IDoc for this? If Yes, how to configure this to handle fault message? Is there any other way of doing it?
Could you please give steps to handle the fault message?
Thank you.
Regards,
Cdr.

Propagate fault message from ABAP server proxy to XI

Hello
My scenario is asynch HTTP -> async ABAP server proxy.
I have searched a forum but I didn't find the ansver on my question:
Is it possible to propagate a fault message from SAP system to XI in case of asyncronous ABAP Proxy in order to see in SXMB_MONI of XI?
I see errors only on SAP side but this solution doesn't satisfied me I want to see all errors in one place.

Soap receiver fault message/acknowledgements

hi all,
i have configured a scenario....
now i want to recieve an error status through soap reciver...and scenario would like...webservice client->XI->Webservice. Soap sender->XI->Soap Reciever......how can I recieve the exception...as raised during execution of webservice....
It would really very helpful if someone could throw some light on this..

Hi,
Is your scenario like this?
SENDER SOAP ADAPTER (Calling XI)<-> XI <--> RECEIVER SOAP ADAPTER (calling webservice)
Now if exception is raised during execution of receiver webservice, does the response from the webservice contains the status? If so, then do a response Map, so as to send the response message back to the webservice client.

SOAP to RFC using fault message

Hi All,
I get a request from Web-service by using the SOAP adapter and pass the same to the SAP ECC for geting the response. I do not need a message mapping as i am passing the same data to SAP ECC. I need to track the errors in fault messages.
Q1. Can i use the fault message handling without using the message mapping.
Q2. If web-service is down and i can't send the response back then do i need to using the fault messageing concept or is there any other way i can get the details back in XI.
If we can use the fault message without using message mapping concept, can someone help me out.
Thanks,
JGD

You are using SOAP sender and Proxy receiver synchronous
>>Q1. Can i use the fault message handling without using the message mapping.
Request mapping, Response mapping and fault message mapping - all these three constitutes message mapping.
>>Q2. If web-service is down and i can't send the response back then do i need to using the fault messageing concept or is there any other way i can get the details back in XI.
If the webservice is down , you dont get message, then you dont need fault message. Fault message is used only for business exceptions and more. If your ECC is down due to some exceptions or errors, you can trace those messages in proxy coding and pass it up to soap as fault message as response.
In this case, you dont need at all.

How to get detailed fault message in business process when exception?

In bp, I use "catch all exception" to handle exception. When exception, I get fault message from all of component and write them into log files. But no matter which component throw exception, I cannot get any detailed message, the string writed into log is always null. Why? server.xml has all detailed message and printstack and why cannot I get?

Hi,
As far as I know, it's not possible to get the exception message with a catch all. You need to catch each exception separately, and the you will be able to get each message.

What is fault message type in mapping

hi folks,
what is the use of fault message type in message mapping . where do we use them .please spare a little time to type rather to refer to other blogs. have a nice day

Hi Bose
Fault messages are used to propogate / send back the error maessage to the calling application. This is used when there is a failue and the sending system needs to know what the error was. This is more of catching Application Errors.
Also please go through the link below to get the details for fault messages...
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5d/a45c3cff8ca92be10000000a114084/content.htm
fault message is a message that describes an application-specific error situation
we have standardised fault message in XI.
Fault message types are designed for application-specific errors that occur on the inbound side and that are reported back to the sender or persisted in monitoring.
In the synchronous case, when an application-specific error occurs on the inbound side, instead of sending a response message back to the sender, the application can send a fault message to handle the error.
The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement
Application-specific means that the application on the inbound side triggers the error itself because, for example, the request message did not contain sufficient information

Fault Message concept needed

Hi
I'm doing one file to Proxy scenario.. if the source file contain some mandatory fields then only my file should be processed.. otherwise i need to raise an exception.. for this.. how fault messages concepts can we apply.. because i does't know any thing abt falut messages.. how can we use.. and where can we define and where can we add these ..
plz give me the clear idea abt this..with basic steps
thanks
babu

Fault messages generally used for used for synchronous interfaces assume when a proxy is generated from a message interface an exception class is generated for a fault message type. You use this exception class to handle application errors at runtime.
The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement (see Acknowledgments).
Application-specific means that the application on the inbound side triggers the error itself because, for example, the request message did not contain sufficient information.

Automizing error message with Fault Message Type

(Request F6) (Request F6)
System -
> XI -
> SAP (Doesn't have F6)
 <-- XI <--
 SAP (Doesn't have F6)
 (Respons: error) (Respons. error)
(Problem) When the request message doesn't content sufficient information that is required for respons then the XI team will get the message error and the responsibility to solve the problem. In this scenario it is the XI team that sends the error respons to the System.
(Request (eg. F6) ) (Request (eg. F6))
System -
> XI -
> SAP (Doesn't have F6)
 <-- XI <--
 SAP (Doesn't have F6)
 (Respons: error) (Respons. error)
(Solution) We want to automatize the process so that the error message goes directly to the System via XI. In other words we only want an acknowledgment of the error in XI, we don't want to solve the error since we believe that it is the sender System that is responsible.
We have seen that there is a Fault Message Type in the Message Interface and we are wondering if that is the way to do it? And it that case, how?

Hi,
Fault message is a error meesage. Its like an exception in simple terms. The fault message is used to
store a log for application error. Fault messages is defined in IR.
To give a overview on Fault messages it is mostly used in synchronous communication. When an error
occurs at the inbound side instead of sending the response message back it sends a fault message back
to the sender system to handle error.
Fault Message are Msg type that provided whenever u create a namespace..they are usually used to get
the exception or error mapped which has occured while execution of Application at the sender/receiver
end....
One scenario where i had used it from Soap to RFC where i defined the exception in rfc source code at
r/3 end...I mapped that exception to Fault msg type that i created of my own type(didnt used the
default)..
Fault messages are used to propogate / send back the error message to the calling application. This is
used when there is a failure and the sending system needs to know what the error was. This is more of
catching Application Errors

Catching Fault Messages when using a webservice

Hi all.
We are using a webservice that looks like this.
nonSAP-system <-> XI <-> SAP
A nonSAP-system asks for some information from a SAP-system. When we get an error of some kind we want to return the errormessage to the nonSAP-system so they will know what went wrong.
For first we want to try to return the errormessage generated in XI or the SAP-system and when we get that to work we want to be able to generate our own faultmessages so we specific what went wrong in the in the call.
We have looked around in the help pages and not getting a good picture on how to do this. Is there anybody who could help me out?

Fault message monitoring

I have an asynchronous scenario of HTTP-> XI -> RFC. In my RFC function application errors may occur. I defined fault message type in my asychron inbound interface corresponding to exceptions of my RFC function.I tried to raise exception in my RFC function in following way:
message e001(CJ) with msg1_hlp raising UPDATE_NOT_POSSIBLE.
But I could not get fault message displayed in XI message monitor (SXMB_MONI).
Could somebody tell me what is the easiest way to show error messages in my case?
As far as I understand either I need to use BPM, or I need to use ABAP server proxy for raising exceptions. Must I use ABAP Proxy instead of RFC function? Then I may need to generate a ABAP Proxy to use as a wrapper for my RFC function, correct?
Thanks,
