Send XML files to HTTP address using RFC

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are trying to send XML files to an HTTP address using XI. For that we tried to establish an RFC connection of type G (HTTP) in SM59. For this connection , when we do a connection test , we get ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED error. For this connection , we have provided the necessary IP as Target Host , port as Service No. and path as Path Prefix.

The same HTTP address works perfectly via Internet Explorer.

What could be the problem ? Any settings required for this type of connection ? If yes please provide t-code with inside menu.

Thanks in advance.

Go to SMICM -->Services and check HTTP service is active & check out if there is any entry for the http also check whether the http port u r using is opened.Cross check the IP Address too.

check, if the URL for the receiver is like this:

http://<host>:<port>/sap/xi/engine?type=receiver : XI 2.0

http://<host>:<port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry : XI3.0 or more

The communication is possible via Internet explorer , does it mean that the desired port is already open ? Kindly explain how it can be checked ?

Also the port we use in SMICM is different than the one we use in service no. in SM59. Can it be a problem ?
