Error in JCO interface when trying to get list of BAPIs

[Former Member]

Hi there,

I am using xMII 12.0 and want to call a BAPI on an ERP 6.0 system.

The SAP Server is configured correctly, the required user permissions are set, JCO is installed correctly.

When I try to get the list of available BAPIs I receive the following error message:

"Returned Content XML is emtpy"

When I let MII try create the input/output xml files its giving the following error:

"unknown proxy type: HTTP"

I can not call any BAPIs...

Any Idea? Thanks in advance.

Ulrich,

Have you used the credentials to directly log onto the ERP system?

It sounds like a credentials problem, but without more information, it is difficult to determine.

Good luck,

Hey Mike,

yes I did. I can log into the ERP system and can execute the bapi as well.

When intentionally provide wrong credentials in MII I get an "wrong password or usernam"-error ... So the credentials seem to be OK.

You may want to talk to your security folks to see if you have external access with that ID. It can be an issue.

Outside of that, I can't think of an issue. I will research it further to see what I can find for you.

Thanks Mike!

I will check, but I don't think so.

I have profile SAP_ALL assigned to my user ... that should be enough, right?

Take a look at these postings to see if any have any insight to your problem:

Hope this helps,

Hi Uli,

Yes, I would think that SAP_ALL would be good enough, but I still think a check with the security folks might be in order. One of the links I found indicated that this is an outside access security issue. I am not an expert in security, so I would check with them to be sure. I do know that security folks are usually a bit more protective of outside access (and they better be) than internal access.

Good luck,

Mike
