Hi All,

I am getting same error in while sending messages fron SBWP :Message cannot be transferred to node SMTP due to connection error (final)

SCOT is configured.

SAPCONNECT is active in SICF

Our SAP version SAP R3 4.7 x200

Thanks & regards,

Saket

Error Log:

Definately cannot transfer message to node SMTP due to connection error

    Message no. XS816

Diagnosis

    Due to a technical fault, the system could not set up a connection to

    the RFC destination Check port and mail server for SMTP nodes.

    Therefore, the message could not be transferred to node SMTP.

System Response

    The system was unable to transfer the message.

    Additional information of the node used (in the system language of the

    node):

Procedure

Check the connection from R/3 to node SMTP. Perhaps the node is not

assigned to the correct RFC destination. If so, correct this in

Customizing.

Otherwise use RFC destination management to check the RFC connection to

destination Check port and mail server for SMTP nodes.

If R/3 is in productive operation, it is advisable to reroute

provisionally to another node.

You should therefore notify your system administrator.

Check that SAPCONNECT job is running fequently... Also go to SOST and check the stats of the outgoing messages. If theres any errors please post them here.

Hi Vitthal

With the above text in error message, you must be getting error number viz XS816 at the top. Please provide the same.

Also in SICF check if node SAPconnect is active.

Could it be a problem with mail server? (Mail port may not be open)

Check that port is open for SMTP and your system IP Address is included on the SMTP Relay agent on the Exchange side.

Hi

First, remove any messages in wait state, from SOST.

Second, check with you SMTP server, whether it allows you to connect.

Also, confirm if this message is intermittent, or you are getting it for all the mails.

I am not able to connect to mail server at port 25 through telnet when I tried from command prompt of the server.

You need the port open... check your firewall, antivirus to see if they are blocking the port... also check with your network people.

Vitthal,

816 errors occured due to no communcation to your email server. We had the same issue with our Rightfax server where the RFC in SAP had a intermittent problem of connecting through the rightfax listener. We upgraded the IGS and that also didnt help, so we had to upgrade the Rightfax server.

I would suggest to put a trace on the RFC going to your email server and see if you get error in it.

Can you please let me know how to put a trace on that RFC and debug?

Thanks very much in advance

This issue should go away once you get the SMTP port setup and relay access given.
