Error during creation of WebServices

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to create a webservice for one of RFC enabled Function Module. I am doing the following steps :

1. Open the Function Module in SE37

2. Chose Utilities->More Utilities->Create webservice->From the Function Module

3. Then I provided the name and description for WebService

4. I chose profile 'PRF_DT_IF_SEC_NO'.

5. Once I reach last screen and select "Complete" I am getting --error message saying "Error during activation of web Services"

Could anyone of you please help me.

Hi

Similar problem here :S

I have tried to create a WS for FM 'ME_GET_CURRENT_USER_ID' but SAP can not activate it. I get the same error message as for Ashwini.

Running SAP 2004s for ABAP (7.0, level 0008).

The HTTP Service is shown as active in SMICM but I can not see the service just "created" neither in SICF nor WSADMIN.

Node "/sap/bc/soap/rfc" is active too.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I just tried in my CRM 2007 test system. I called the web service as zdisplayuser.

In SICF, I find it at this service :

/default_host/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/zdisplayuser/060/zdisplayuser/zdisplayuser

I then have to manage it with SOAMANAGER because my SP level is 16 (>14).

"/sap/bc/soap/rfc" is for deprecated web services WAS 6.20 style...

Olivier, thank you so much

SOAMANAGER does not exist in my system (sp level 8), so node "/sap/bc/soap/rfc" should be active. Actually, it is active.

I think the problem is related to user rights/profiles.

I have tried to create another WS after assigning role SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_ADMIN. The same error when trying to activate it, but now, I can see this WS in SE80 (under "Enterprise Services->Service Definition"). It is not active there and if I try to activate it, a success message appears indicating that user "is not authorized to use function netzwerkadministration". I cannot see any new services in SICF...

Probably the new entry in SICF will be created after activating WS in SE80...

Do u know what user profile should I add in order to properly activate the WS in SE80?

Thank you very much!

Hi All,

I succeeded in cracking the issue by using the steps below :

1. transaction SICF>use 'default_host' as virtual hostu2026.

2. Execute

3. Activate node /sap/bc/soap/rfc

Hi,

You don't tell us which system and wich release you are using ?

WAS 6.20 ? Netweaver 2004s ?, Netweaver 7.0 ? Which SP level ?

Are we supposed to guess ?

Did you activate the HTTP service in SMICM ?

Did you activate the service in SICF ?

Hi Olivier,

I am using CRM 5.0 system. I am activating the WebService from Function Module directly. I am not using any other transaction e.g. SMICM or SICF.

It seems that some setting is missing because of that I am getting the error.

I craeted the WebService successfully in other system in the similar fashion.

Hi,

As I said check if HTTP is set up in SMICM.

Check also SICF.

Hi Olivier,

Thanks for your help.

I tried to check in SMICM using the path..

SMICM->Services, HTTP & SMTP both are active.

I am not able to check the same using SICF, could you please guide me.

Hi,

Go to SICF and for the Service Name field in the filter criteria enter the service that you have generated.

Now SICF will display your service in a tree structure, please make sure if the service is active.. if not right click and activate the service.

Thanks,
