Trying HTTP Client URL in Internet Explorer!

[Former Member]

Hi,

The below URL is generated by HTTP client to send xml to XI.

http://<host>:8000/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=<namespace>&interface=<interface>&service=<service...

what should be the response if I try this URL by Internet explorer?

I am getting no response/ blank page.

Please try and let me know,

Thanks,

Karthik.

If the response is 200 everything is ok and the response content is empty. So you will see an empty pagein IE. Otherwise you will get an error page.

Using Firefox with extension LiveHttpHeaders you can see exactly the conversation between both partners.

Hi Karthik,

As I said, the Inbound plain HTTP Adapter works on the concept of HTTP POST method not on HTTP GET method.

Hence modifying URL doesnt have any effect. Use some HTTP client to actually post some XML data to IE.

Note:- If you are replying to yourself, nobody can understand from whom you are expecting an answer.

Thanks all, I understand now.

PS. I replied back to my own post above just to bring the thread in the first page for attention of readers and it worked.

Can you please modify the URL so that I can get some response from XI?

You want get any response as the browser uses HTTP get method.

You have to use post method.............

Hello,

If it is successfully hitting the XI, then you will be able to see the log in sxmb_moni.

You will be able to see the input side payload.

Verify.
