WS SOAP scenario from suppliers

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
A supplier is sending PO using via WS
my scenario is SAOP -> XI -> RFC.
If the suppliers is from another company not in the same network , what is the best way to make the comunication and configuration in the best ?

Hi Udi,
>>my scenario is SAOP -> XI -> RFC.
there are many ways to handle external webaservice calls
1. Have an external Adapter Engine in DMZ , which could then talk to ur XI in ur network.
2. Have the http port open in ur network between DMZ and ur network for the soap communication
3. implement reverse proxies in DMz
cheers,

Error while testing sender SOAP scenario from XMLSpy-but can test from RWB

HI,
I developed one scenario with sender SOAP adapter and Receiver side ABAP proxy.
Now I want to test my scenario.
I tested my scenario successfully from RWB-->Integration server Integration Engine. ( it posted successfully and I can see checked flag in SXMB_MONI)
But when I tried to test the scenario fro XML spy it is throwing HTTP error 500.
When I type my URL in internet explores it is giving Message Servlet is in Status OK.
I am not sure what is the difference between there two type of testing.
What does it mean by successful from RWB and fails from XMLSpy?
Why I am getting this error from XMLSpy?

Dear Ashok,
if RWB showing you successful then message in not in error.
XML Spy giving error HTTP 500 not it is just server error.This might be due to large payload.
here is the description of all error related with 500+
5xx Server Error
The server failed to fulfill an apparently valid request.
Response status codes beginning with the digit "5" indicate cases in which the server is aware that it has erred or is incapable of performing the request. Except when responding to a HEAD request, the server SHOULD include an entity containing an explanation of the error situation, and whether it is a temporary or permanent condition. User agents SHOULD display any included entity to the user. These response codes are applicable to any request method.
500 Internal Server Error
501 Not Implemented
502 Bad Gateway
503 Service Unavailable
504 Gateway Timeout
505 HTTP Version Not Supported
506 Variant Also Negotiates (RFC 2295)
507 Insufficient Storage (WebDAV) (RFC 4918)
509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
This status code, while used by many servers, is not an official HTTP status code.
510 Not Extended (RFC 2774)
first ping your server
Tcode for this is SM49>ping
Then in additional parameter put the server IP and execute it will show you its reachability.
if it is not reachable then contact the server vendor,
Else if it is timeout problemthen
you run Tcode SXMB_ADM>intregration engine configuration
put category RUNTIME
then click specific configuration
Then change/increase HTTP timeout

Response from PI in SOAP to SOAP Scenario

Hi,
My scenario is Soap to SOAP sending purchase orders. they want acknowledgement from PI whether PI received the message or not in the form of SOAP response.
sender system not expecting the response after the message processing in receiver system, they are expecting the response when PI receives message from them.
As any way they receive HTTP200 OK acknowledgement is it necessary that to send the SOAP response from PI by developing BPM?
Is it a good way of doing it?
Is any other way of doing it?
Your suggestions will be helpful to me.
Thank you.
Santhi.

Hi Santhi,
Please refer to SAP Note 856597 - SOAP Adapter FAQ Question number 2
2. Sender Asynchronous Calls
o Q: What are the correct sender options for asynchronous calls?
When the client sends a SOAP message and checks if the response is
an HTTP 200 response message with an empty soap envelope or an HTTP
202 response message with no content, the quality of service with
AtLeastOnce can be realized. In this case, the client must resend
the message until such a successful response is returned. When the
message successfully accepted by the adapter, an HTTP 200 response
with an empty SOAP envelope or an HTTP 202 response message with no
content is returned.
You don't have to do anything. When an async message is sent, PI will either reply with a 200 with an empty SOAP Envelope or an HTTP 202 with no content . That will serve as your acknowledgement.
Regards,
Mark

Hi,
Thanks its working now. I am facing another issue. I do not use parameters in my Scenario. Now when i run my scenario i m getting the following error. I think its because i have not assigned anything to the Variable element. I guess its taking null value for Variable element here and cheking if such a variable exists. Have you come accross such an issue? If so, please sugest remedy.

Sending SOAP request from XI and writing a scheduler for this

Dear XI Experts,
My scenario is as follows.
We have two landscapes
1)     XI, R/3
2)     Client System(Remote, Other than SAP)
Now we have to pull the data from client system using WSDL (There will be one method for pulling the data in the WSDL file). The WSDL is provided by the client. We are importing that WSDL as external definition in Integration Repository and implementing the scenario SOAP to XI to RFC and configuring it Integration Directory.
Remember the client will not send the data to XI. Only we have to pull the data as mentioned above.
Problems:-
(i)     How to send SOAP request to the client using XI only?
(ii)     How to write a scheduler for this?
please help us.
Thanks...
Praveen Gujjeti

Ur Suggestion
"My proposition looks like that. in R/3 you have scheduled RFC call in some program. This RFC calls XI and XI is calling using SOAP adapter your client. Then response go back to your RFC and you can handle this data."
As you mentioned, I am not scheduling any RFC call in R/3. If you go through my first query u can find two points where I am having some doubts......
How to send SOAP request to the client using XI only? Is it possible to send a SOAP request from XI?
If so,
(ii) How to write a scheduler for this? So that it will invoke the webservice and get the data from client application(system)

'500 Connection timed out' Error in Sender SOAP Scenario

Hi mates,
I exposed o/b synch MI as a webservice. This webservice is received by a BPM and it triggers an IDOC generation program on R/3. BPM waits & collects the IDOCs and cosntructs the response from these IDOCs and returns it to the webservice caller.
I'm making the SOAP call from a client program and I get the correct response in some cases where the data requested is not huge...normally with in 30 sec.
But in some cases I get the error '500 Connection timed out' after 60 sec. The detailed message is as follows.
<i>500 Connection timed out
Connection timed out (-5)
Error: -5
Version: 6040
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Thu Jun 15 17:06:10 2006
Module: icxxthr_mt.c
Line: 2551
Server: hcidx1_DX1_03
Detail: Connection to partner timed out after 60s</i>
My BPM waits for 10 minutes and I set the parameter XI.Timeout to 600000 (i.e. 10 minutes) in module parameter table for the sender SOAP adapter as per the note 856597. And in SXMB_ADM, I set the parameter CHECK_FOR_ASYNC_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT of category SA_COMM to 600. In my client program, I set the timeout as 1 hour. All these config params are supposed to make sure that all the components involved wait for atleast 10 mins before they timeout.
But I get timeout after 60 sec. Whats wrong/missing?
I highly appreciate your inputs.
thx in adv
praveen

Hey Praveen,

But in some cases I get the error '500 Connection timed out' after 60 sec. The detailed message is as follows.</i>
does this mean you are getting some response in some cases where u r payload is small , and if its large ur getting some timeout like this? Also is ur scenario Sync / Async?
Assuming i understood correctly , i came a similar situation but that has to do some thing with Paging file / memory issues when the files are too huge and no. of users are high please let me know if this is the case.

Error in SOAP receiver channel in Synchronous Proxy to SOAP scenario

Hi all,
We are experiencing an issue with a synchronous Proxy to SOAP scenario. Getting below error message in the SOAP receiver communication channel for the response message.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
Seems the Receiver Webservice is not reachable. Did you try to test it using SOAP UI tool.
1. Test a fresh message from local SOAP UI tool.
2. Pick 3rd party WSDL file and Import in SOAP UI tool.
3. Put some dummy data for mandatory fields
4. Trigger it msg and ckh if you get successful / response msg.
5. Check if firewall is open and that URL is not blocked.
Hope it helps

Error handling in File - XI - SOAP scenario without BPM

Hello!
We have a File -> XI -> SOAP scenario without BPM. The problem is that if the Web Service sends back an error XI tries to reprocess the same message again and again instead of taking the next one.
We do not want set the retry interval to NULL because most error cases are temporary connection problems and then also those messages would not automatically be reprocessed any more.
We also have to use BE instead of EO, otherwise the Web Service will not return a response. But we need the response to be sure that the processing was successful. The message volume in this scenario is quite high and we do not want to use BPM only for the error handling.
I know that from SP19 some additional adapter modules are available for async - sync scenarios without BPM. I tried to configure it like described in File - RFC - File without a BPM - Possible from SP 19. but it did not solve the problem. Does anybody have any other ideas? Thanks.
Regards, Tanja

Hi Tanja,
>>>The volume is 3000 messages/day on business days and 700 messages/day during weekends but the traffic will increase in the future
I think, you should check that out. It is assumedly only 2 days work to build a scenario:
IDoc -> BP
BP <-> SOAP/HTTP
BP -> IDoc (Acknowledgement)
In the process you need a condition branch, where you decide success or not. You need 2 Interface Mappings for filling the ALEAUD.
Just send 1000 IDocs to the Test-XI and look to performance monitoring at Runtime Workbench, to find out, how many message will be processed in one hour. Assumedly 3000 and more per day should be possible. The advantage would be to reduce number of systems (no file system) and messages (better monitoring) and using the standard (better maintenance).
>>>So you are suggesting I should use HTTP adapter and then add the SOAP header manually in a mapping?
Yes, build the SOAP envelop during the mapping. Most easy is to use XSL or, if your mapping is ready, an additionsal XSL. You can put the error into the Acknowledgement to see it in ERP transaction WE02.
Filling of ALEAUD fields:
E1ADHDR/MESTYP: original message type
E1ADHDR/E1STATE/DOCNUM: original IDoc number
E1ADHDR/E1STATE/STATUS: 68 in case of error, 53 in case of success
E1ADHDR/E1STATE/STATXT: Short description for R/3 user what has happend
I ve done such a scenario several times. That works without any problems.

Udo

HTTP to SOAP scenario

Hi guys,
We have developed an HTTP to SOAP scenario, where XI acts as the WS client in order to call an already published WS.
When we are testing the scenario through RWB's interface (Component Monitoring --> Integration Server --> Integration Engine --> Self-Test Tab), we get error in SXMB_MONI.
The error is found in receiver SOAP adapter.
In Communication Channel Monitoring, we get the error "request entering", "call failed". The Message Id does not have a link in order to see the Audit Log.
In SXMB_MONI, the error in SOAP header is the following :
<SAP:Category>XIAdapterFramework</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="MESSAGE">GENERAL</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1 />
<SAP:P2 />
<SAP:P3 />
<SAP:P4 />
<SAP:AdditionalText>com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host: connect</SAP:AdditionalText>
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
Our network does not use a proxy server, the Web Service hostname responds when we ping it from CMD.
Also, the WS works fine when testing it from Web.
We tried to play around with "Target URL" and "SOAP Action" parameters in receiver SOAP Com. Channel, but error remains the same.
Any ideas ??

HTTP 500 Internal Server Error with Large Attachment in SOAP Scenario

Hi,
we have implemented SOAP - XI - SOAP Scenario in our landscape (Sap Neatweaver Process Integration 7.1) .
One of the functionality of this scenario is the Upload of Documents to External Web Service through standard SOAP Attachment.
If we try to upload a small file (smaller than 20MB), task works fine and the document is correctly uploaded.
If we try to upload a larger file, we encountered in this generic error:
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: XIAdapterFramework:GENERAL:com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Internal Server Error
at com.sap.aii.adapter.soap.ejb.XISOAPAdapterBean.process(XISOAPAdapterBean.java:1161)
We tried to increase timeout parameters (in communication channel and in ICM Value) but the response is the same.
We verify also if icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB parameter was set to a value smaller than our file size limit (20MB) but is set to default value (100MB).
The problem isn't on External Web Service Layer because if we try to upload the same documents directly to that web service upload works fine, and in External Web Service's Log there aren''t any indications of this error.
So I ask you: are there any System Parameters to verify to solve this issue?
For additional, in ICM Monitor LOG we can read this WARNING when we call our service:
WARNING => IcmReadFromConn(id=53/454390): temporarily out of MPI buffers -> roll out [icxxthrio_mt 2646]
This warning may be related to the problem? If yes, how can we solve it?
Thanks a lot,
Marcello Ricci

Hi ,
Please answer my following questiosn.
1) which PI version are you using?
2) How many J2EE nodes you have.
please be reminded that SOAP is not for the heavy messages. Then you need to increase your timeout parameters from BASIS.

Problem in IDOC to SOAP Scenario

Hi All,
we have an IDOC to SOAP scenario in which we have got WSDL from the client for the targets.. Please let us know the WSDL would be the message type and we need to create interface for it . Also the SOAP header is not appearing in the target xml.
Thanks

Hi ,
This means when the data is sent to the webservice it will contain the SOAP header just that we cannot see it in Moni . Also
What about the acknowledgement . Our message is successfull but with message that awaiting acknowledgement.
What we basically need a synchronous scenario of IDOC to SOAP but the response not going back to SAP-R3 . We recieve the response only in SAP-PI. Saw some blogs but the message is going back to SAP-R3. Please help us on this
Thanks

IDoc to SOAP scenario is showing error

Dear Experts,
We were trying a scenario which is IDoc-XI 3.0->SOAP and where the WebService is situated outside our office network. Our network team have bypassed proxy for accessing that WebService URL and the same is accessible from our XI3.0 application server from browser. We have configured the scenario and when we have tested the scenario from RWB->Component M onitoring->Integration Engine->Test and this has worked fine. But when we have tested the scenario by triggering IDoc from the R/3 system, it is throwing the below mentioned error in both at the comm chanel and at the SXMB_MONI acknowledgement.
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 403 Service Error
points to be noted here:
1. Business Service has been configured correctly for triggering ALEAUD messages and ALEAUD messages are reaching R/3 successfully.
2. We have chosen option Keep Headers and Do not use SOAP header options.
3. We are passing some values to the SOAP Header from SOAP channel.
Please could somebody help us on the root cause of the error message.
We have run report IDX_NOALE for that particular IDoc so that it doesn't return any acknowledgement back to the R/3 system.
Thanks and regards,
Sugata
Edited by: Sugata Basu on Nov 19, 2011 12:40 PM

Dear,
IDoc to Soap scenario we have to import wsdl at receiver end and map the field from the mapping document but some times receiver end some changes may happen. if it is correct only your mapping we have to conclude from the below points.
1. Check the mapping in Message Mapping and Operation Mapping Test and conclude.
2. you should check url from receiver that is correct or wrong.
3. ask the wsdl from receiver end.
the given ED and receiver side application is same this type of error will not come.
Please check at receiver application or else what ever new fields are added in reciver may be miss mach of ED.

Edited by: eltonsaranya on May 9, 2011 10:27 AM

Your exception message shows problem at the webservice side.
Check the following:
a) you need two mappings one for proxy req to soap request and other soap response to proxy response
b) You need to create service interfaces both sender and receiver synchronous .
c) communication channel QOS is best effort for both sender and receiver
d) I dont see problem in soap configuration. Bcuz you are able to ping and while getting response from the method getPerson it fails.
f) See your SOAP response structure matches with WSDL provided.
g) You can also test outside PI.. I meant testing via soap client tool like SOAPUI for that web service. So that you know whether problem exists on the target system or not.
Hope that helps.

Soap action: in Proxy to soap scenario

Hi experts,
I have a senario of Proxy to webservices.
I have imported the wsdl file as external defination, and have to use two message inside 1) to Insert 2) To Update.
Now proxy will run twice a month with same data structure,
I have to do insert action first and 2nd time Update.
I have only one receiver. So How to achive this in communication channel >> Soap Action.
1> Is is possible to provide two Soap action in a single communication channel.?
2> do i need to create 2 mapping and two interface ? My Source coming from Proxy is with one structure.

You can either go for dynamic configuration and configure the action or you can go for two different Communication channels with separate actions.
In the proxy use a field as an indicator for the required action i.e INSERT or UPDATE and based on XPATH in your interface determination call the required channel or in case you are using a single channel create the dynamic action in your mapping based on that field.
