Certificate in HTTP adapter

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

I am working on scenario in which I have to pick file from a folder and send to partner on the link provided by them, and as a security measure i have to use certificate.

I am going to use HTTP adapter for sending message.

I had done all configuration but I am not getting where I am going to do the settings of certificate in HTTP adapter.

I mean, if I use BC adapter for communication there is place on bc adapter where I can give keystore entry and keystore view.

Please let me know where i have to do setting for certificate in HTTP adapter

Thanks,

Brijesh Soni

Hi,

Ask your Basis to enbale the SSL in abap stack.after that go to strust and import the certificate in standard client. Go to sm59.Create a RFC destination with G type.Give the target host and port and path.In logon security enable ssl and select ssl client(standard).Give the rfc destination in Receiver http adapter.

As per our basis consultant we are not using abap engine. we are only using java engine. So do we need to do activation of SSL on java engine? Is it in same way as we do on abap engine?

please suggest..

Hi brijesh soni ,

Did you install SAP Cryptographic Library?

Thanks.

Yeh.. actually our basis consultant had maintained certificate some where... m nt sure tht is wat u mean by SAP Cryptographic Library.

in your receiver HTTP adapter use the option of

HTTP Destination: HTTPDest instead of a targetURL

Configure the destination to have the HTTPS protocol involved i.e the destination will take care of your SSL/Security settings.

Hi Shabarish,

partner as provide me link like..

https://192.*.*.*/b2btest/mt100.asp

As told by you if I use HTTP Destination,partners link is bigger then the total size of HTTP Destination input field.

Also want to know ,are settings need to be done for SSL certificate in XI server. Or we need to just maintain the certificate in certificate store. I am doing this scenario first time so may be this question are totally wrong.. bt will really appreciate ur help in this.

[Shabarish_Nair]

As far I have seen is to use a HTTP destination where you select a connection type as G. Enable SSL and also provide details of the certificate there in the destination. This is all in ABAP stack of XI

Another option you cna try is to configure the SOAP adapter in the receiver and use the Do not use SOAP envelop. The message will then be treated as a HTTP request.

the SOAP adapter has the option of specifying the keystore etc

Never tried this before, but by theory might work
