Test web service for a function module

Hello,
I have created web service for a functiona module. I can see the same service in SE80 in Enterprise Services.
How do I test this service?
I can see the URL in WSDL tab but when I try to execute it give me following error,
What has happened?
URL http://emhbssap15.domain.local:8027/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/sdef_service_name/wsdl11/ws_policy/document call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available.
Note
The termination occurred in system BDV with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden.
The selected virtual host was 0 .
What can I do?
Please select a valid URL.
If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks Venu for your input.
Unfortunetly we do not have Java stack on our development system. You said we can test it by SOAP UI tool. Where do I see the WSDL file for the service?
I used WSDL from SE80 --> Service --> WSDL tab, but SOAP UI does not accept this format ?
What are the other ways I can test this web service? I think about SAP PI, importing RFC & creating web service or creating ABAP proxies... Which is the best way to go forward in case you do not have Java stck.

Web Service created from Function Module with output tables

Hello,
I created a web service from a custom function module. This Function module has some export parameters and one table.
The table parameter returns a list of data for selection.
When I execute the function module, everything is returned fine.
When I call the web service, the export parameters are returned but the table is empty.
Has anyone encountered that kind of issue?
Thanks!
Laurent

Please check the following few things while testing the WS:
- Test the WS with WS Navigator (accessible from transaction WSADMIN or http://<server host>:<port>/wsnavigator/enterwsdl.html).
- While doing the test, give the exact no. of digit if there is some input parameter (with 0 padding if necessary).
- Make sure the "SKIP" check box against the table parameter is NOT checked.

Web Service from RFC function module

Hi all,
I'm searching for a way to create web services from RFC-enabled function modules. I know there is a wizard, but it's not suitable for my problem:
I have around 30 function modules (number raising in near future) I want to enable for web services, most of them share the same structures representing the underlying data model. When one structure is modified (i.e. a new sub-structure is added) I have to recreate all web services, which is quite uncomfortable.
In addition, using the wizard results in one wsdl-file for each web service operation, that leads to an administration overhead using this web services from a java frontend.
So I'm searching for a "bulk creation". I also know the wizard can be used for a function group, but I can't put all my RFC-enabled function module in one function group, that would lead to confusion in the package.
Does anyone know how web services are created programmaticaly? If I had a function module which creates the web services I could write a function module which creates all web services I need.
Thank you in anticipation!
Florian

I'm not sure I understand the 're-create' part...how are you re-creating the web service? if you modify the interface of a function-based web service, then you use the 'modify operations' functionality (context menu - right-click) to regenerate the web service interface; this works for a function group based web service as well and hits all of the methods at once. As for the java overhead on function group services, stating the obvious, maybe you just need to lower the number of functions in your groups. We use .Net-developed applications with multi-function webservices and don't have any overhead issues.

Web Services from ABAP function modules return values- leading zeros

I am using several web services from SAP CRM (5.0) that were created from Function modules ( I am assuming that that they are in ABAP).
I can call the web services fine and they work as expected, but I am seeing a lot of leading zeros in the return values of fields in tables from the Web service.
The ABAP ers are telling me that they cannot see the leading zeros.
So my question is where these are appended to the values in the whole process. When I execute the Function Module in SAP CRM from transaction SE37 I can see the leading zeros. So I think that this is something that has to be handled by the ABAP ers and not in the client consuming the web service.
Are the functions in SAP CRM that can remove leading zeros for fields in a table (that is an export parameter?)
Jawahar

Hello Jawahar
If you run your (RFC-enabled) function modules using the SAP-GUI (i.e. in dialog) then the GUI automatically replaces leading zero when the function module returns any data. However, calling the same function module remotely you will always see these leading zeros.
These so-called conversion exits are defined as attribute of domains in the ABAP dictionary. If the function module used for the WebService is a standard fm then you have little chances to get rid of the leading zero. Perhaps the WebService has some attribute to suppress conversion exits or activate them when retrieving the data.

Error while generating Web Service from a function module.

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create a web service from function module by doing the steps as mentioned in the below document:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index;jsessionid=(J2EE3417800)ID1146834250DB10778842957931285337End?rid=/library/uuid/80fa3dff-ce76-2a10-3f94-f3df8f2db5a2&overridelayout=true
When i save it as an local object instead of generating the Web Service it gives me the below error:
"Error during activation of Web Service"
Kindly let me know what needs to be done inorder to resolve this issue.
I have a feeling that this error may be with respect to some authorizations, in that case how do we resolve it
Helpful Inputs Awaited.!!!

Is possible to compare a web service like a function module ?

Hello all,
I'm new in ABAP web service ( not java, not PI ). I have to create a web service to send some file
from sap system towards external system and I'm learing some documentation.
To send a file with web service I need to create an interface with Internet Comunication Manager and
when this interface is created,
how can I send my file with web service ? I need to create a FM or other object ?
tks a lot,
bye.

a fm is accessible via ws

Standard Web services for Business Partner

Hi Experts,
Currently I am working on web service in abap.Can somebody tell me what all standar web services are available related to Business Partner Search and Business Partner creation..?
Thanks
Samii

Hi,
If you want to create a web service definition then below are the steps,
1. Create a RFC enabled function module with your functionality
2. Then in menu bar go to Utilities->More Utilities->Create Web Service->From the Function module.
3. This will open a wizard, Just follow the wizard. This will create your web service.
4. You can see the web service in SE80. Enter the package in which the webservice was created. Then select Enterprise Services and select your web service.
5. To test the web service, go to transaction SOAMANAGER
6. In the web interface select Application and Secario communication tab, then select Service Administration
7. In the web service administration page you can search for your web service and test it.
You can refer this Wiki,

Error on page when trying to test web service in EM

Hi,
I've developed a couple of web services in JDeveloper and tested them through Enterprise Manager. But the latest service won't work as expected. When I press "Test Web Service" for this particular port I get the message "Error on page" and
"Line: 94
Char: 1
Error: Object expected
Code: 0"
For the other web services the possible input parameters are shown as an HTML form and you can also choose to use an XML source. But this won't work in this case. No input parameters are shown and you can't choose XML source.
My question is of course the reason for this behaviour. And secondly; are the possible input parameters retrieved from the xsd file or from somewhere else? Could there be an error in it causing the problem? I'd be happy to provide some code, although right now I'm not sure which code snippet is appropriate.
Thanks in advance!
Kerstin

Update:
Now I see that there are in fact two error messages. The second one is the one presented above. But the first one says:
Line: 145
Char: 97
Error: Expected ';'
Code: 0
My question now is to what file it is referring?? Is it to ProjectAccountingPort.js that is automatically created? THen why is it not properly created??
Please, please help me with this! The deadline is in a few days...

Issue in creating web service for a ABAP Function Module

Hi,
now i'm learning how to create web service for a ABAP Function Module. I used the following steps.
1. select the Function Module, named "zws_test".
2. in the context menu, select "create->proxy object". so we enter into wizard.
3. in the wizard, press the radio button "Service Provider".
4. in the next page, press the radio button "Existing ABAP Objects(Inside Out)".
5. In the next page, Enter the "zws_test_prvider" as Service Definition and select "Function Module" as Endpoint Type.
6. in the next page, enter "zws_test" as Function Module and mark the "Mapping der Namen" button
7. in the next page,select "PRF_DT_IF_SEC_LOW" as Profile and mark "Deploy Service".
8. Save in the local package.
9. then it will pop up a window with title "WSDL Source". i selected "URL/HTTP Destination" and press "OK".
10.in the next page, i enter the URL as "http://hostname:portnumber/", and press "OK".
11. then it will pop up a window with title "Display logs". A record with error message "HTTP error(return code 404, message "Not found")" appears.
12. i press "ok" and a service provider with name "zws_test_prvider" appears in my local package.
13. i use "zws_test_prvider"'s URL to create a service consumer "ZCO_WS_TEST_CONSUMER" and logic portal "LP1".
14. But when i test my service consumer "ZCO_WS_TEST_CONSUMER", it will throw an exception "cx_ai_system_fault" with errortext "SOAP:14 Unexpected element -el=definitions ns=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/".
15. I use t-code SM59 to test connection and get the following info.
      Status HTTP Response     200
      Status Text                      OK
      Duration Test Call             328 ms.
who can give me the reasons about item 11 and 14, and explain me how to create service provider and service consumer for a Function Module.
Thanks in advance

How to add Test data for a function module

Hi experts,
i want to add test data for a function module . i don't know how to proceed on it . please help me...
with regards,
James...
Valuable answers will be rewarded...

Hi,
- Go to SE37 and execute your FM
- Enter the data you want to pass to FM
- Hit 'Save' button. Enter the meaningful name for your test scenario and save. That's it you have saved the test data.
You can also enter some other test data and save that also. In short, you can save multiple test scenario. Also, you can give multiple test scenario a same name and they do not overwrite each other ( but normally you give different name to differentiate them)
Next time you come to execute the FM again, hit the "test data" button and it will show you all the test scenario you have stored before. Select the one you want to use and it will load the data in FM parameters.
Let me know if you need any other information.
Regards,

Why JDEVADF11.1.1.3 can not test web service in IE for Integrated WebLogic

Hi,
Testing a web service deployed to Integrated WebLogic Server.
1.When you deploy the web service to Integrated WebLogic Server, examine the contents of the log window. Find http://IP_address:port/Project1-context-root/MyWebService1
2.Copy the URL and paste it into browser. The browser shows a simple page which lists the operations available on the service.
3.Enter a parameter, and click Enter. The result from the web service is displayed.
My question:
Why only display Web Services Endpoint and Information . Can not have Enter a parameter and operations available on the service.
HttP analyzer test web service is OK.
Thanks

Hi,
That is because you are looking at the endpoint information.
If you want to test the service in a browser, then you can use the Weblogic Test Client.
When your Integrated WLS is running, point the browser to the following url: http://localhost:7101/wls_utc/
Thanks,
Vishal

RFC works but web service for that RFC does not work..weird??

hi all,
I created an RFC enabled function module to create a Sales Order in SAP CRM for both for Varinat Configurable and Normal Materials.
The RFC Works well...if i test it..it creates an order and if i go and check the sales order in CRM GUI. i find that sales order is perfect with the configuration data for the configurable items..
Now i created a Web service for this RFC by calling the Web service creation wizard.
Now i am testing the Web service in SOAMANGER T-code and the sales order is created and weird thing the configuration data is missing for Varinat configurable item..
But i dont encounter this problem if i am testing the RFC directly
What could be wrong...why is my web service behaving weird?
I am dying to find this out..did any body enocunter this situation befor ..please help

Sure Oliver..
I put a break point using external debugger and when i was testing the Web service in SOAMANAGER..
i could then land into ABAP debugger.
There in my RFC i put a logic such that i diffenetiate between VC and Non-VC items and fill the Charateristic Values only if it is aVC item.
I saw that the IF condition was not executing as they suddenly changed the material structure in ECC and it reflected in CRM.
SO i am inputting 18 digits of material no like '000000000000000001' for '1'...but the if condition was checking against 1 =1 so that loop never executed and chara values are not getting filled.
But if i test RFC in se37 ..it works as i am inputting 1...
Since Web service works with XML (WSDL) need to be very careful with the format in which data is inputted and the format in which the logic we wrote in RFC works.
Once again ..thanks to all people who helped me with the answers...

Jessica Sam
