Hi,

you will have to configure Webservice path in SICF /default_host/sap/public/bsp/sap

1219627 - "HTTP Error 403 -Forbidden Internet Explorer" opening

1184202 - "HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden" when attempting to log

central note for all applications/components

Note 517484 - Inactive services in the Internet Communication Framework

Note 813591 - SAF: 403 Forbidden error on http destination (sm59)

Yup, following the instructions in snote 1184202 solved it for us as well. Is there a security concern to have this enabled? I didn't see a reason on the snote as to why it is disabled by default and would want to follow SAP best practices if it should be.

Thanks,

Nick
