Seeburger AS2: Error on send - illegal MDN - content-type not supported

[Former Member]

Hi,

I build up a connection to a partner to send ORDRSP via AS2.

Unfortunately I'm receiving an error in the Seeburger Workbench:

Received illegal MDN - content-type not supported!

I set up the content-type: application/EDI-X12. I have already tested different content types, but I always get the error. The whole conficuration is similar to our other partners.

Do you know, what this error means and give me an advice please.

Thanks a lot

Hello Frank,

I'm facing the same error as your "Received illegal MDN - content-type not supported!"

May I know did you found the solution or root cause of this error?

Thx & regards,

Hello HB Doo,

did you request synchronous or asynchronous MDN when sending out the data ?

Do you have a possibility to setup a "debug trace" for this transmission ?

To make sure that your logs are configured correct, here is a document for your reference...

The EDI-partner told me the wrong URL. That was all.

Hello Frank,

Not sure, but you can giev a try on the following.

1. The encrytpion method (RSA, DES..) used on your partner side are the same or not.

2. The certificates used are upto date and valid. i.e. since you are getting an error during Synchronous MDN, your partner might not be using your correct public key before sending the MDN.

You should be using only one receiver channel, if you are using synchronous MDN. Separate channels fro MDN are required when you use asynchronous MDN's.

Check in the Receiver Agreement, if you have mentioned the correct certificates of sender and receiver.

Hi,

I tried different content types, but always get the same error.

application/EDI-X12

application/octet-stream

application/xml

application/edifact

Does anyone know this? What does the error mean?

Best regards

Try application/edi-x12

Everything in small case.

Hello Prateek,

I tried application/edi-x12, but I got the same error as before.

Status Description Received illegal MDN - content-type not supported!

Can anyone help please?

What type of message are you actually transferring? If it is a plain text file, use text/plain.

Do you have a separate channel for MDN messages? Is it a sync or async MDN?

I try to transfer an SAP-XML of an ORDRSP.

MDN-Mode is sync.

Yes I have a separate channel for the MDN messages.

That sounds very odd. Are you sure that the endpoint you are sending to is actually an AS2 server ? It could very well be that you are sending to a generic endpoint which is not returning an MDN. You should check the AS2 manual and enable transmissionDataDump which will dump the message transmitted TO the endpoint as well as the response received FROM the endpoint in the seeburger/AS2... folder (check the manual and masterinstallationguide) for details.
