problems while calling the webservice published at XI end

[Former Member]

Hi ,

I have published a webservice at the XI end and to test it I am calling the webservice from xmlspy .

I do get the popup for username and password in the xmlspy for the adapter but it fails to send the data to the webservice .

I even checked the SOAP adapter status in the RWB and its grey. and the installed and started option of adapter monitoring the soap adapter is not shown .

Can anyone through some light as to what can be the reason behind this .

is it the problem with the adapter or the webservice

Thanks

Hello Nikhil,

what is the return message XI? I don't know if you see the detailed response using XMLspy. If not please refer to SAP note 856597, it describes how to use a TCP gateway to make the response visible.

Hi ,

I pinged the below url

http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/HelperServlet?action=FindChannel& channel=p:s:c

to find if the channel is avaliable or not .

I get the following error .

java.lang.Exception: invalid channel (party:service:channel) = <null>

at com.sap.aii.af.mp.soap.web.HelperServlet.processFindChannel(HelperServlet.java:364)

at com.sap.aii.af.mp.soap.web.HelperServlet.doGet(HelperServlet.java:126)

at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:740)

at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853)

Hi Nikhil,

I hope the you called the wrong url.

case 1 with party:

http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/HelperServlet?action=FindChannel& channel=p:s:c

case 2 without party:

http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/HelperServlet?action=FindChannel& channel=:s:c

Just check the colon before s..often people overlook. Its just a wild guess.

cheers

Hello Nikhil,

that might be a pretty silly question from my side. Did you copy'n'paste the url? 'Cause there is a space in the url you've pasted above "FindChannel& channel=p:s:c" between & and channel.

Hello Nikhil,

did you publish the web service as described in this guide: http://service.sap.com/~sapdownload/011000358700002953992006E/HowToUseSOAPAdapter.pdf

Nikhil,

Make sure that in the URL, that u give while defining web service, u have give correct channel name. Generate webservice, with correct comm. channel name.

I think, that should be fine.

Hi,

try this:

http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/HelperServlet?action=FindChannel& channel=<b><party>:<service>:<channel></b>

please, change the bold parameters to the correspondent values that your scenario uses.

<party> = party name (only if you use a party)

<service> = business system or service name (sender)

<channel> = soap sender channel name.

Cheers,

Ricardo.

Hi Nikhil,

Channel not found for :SIEBEL_DEV:SIEBEL_SOAP it means the channel name that you are calling doesn't exist!!!

SIEBEL_SOAP is it the channel name? check it please!

There is something wrong with the channel name or maybe with the channel it self!!! Did you chek if this channel was activated and status is active? (you can see the satus on bottom of channel configuration).

Hope it helps,

Ricardo.

Hi,

Use this monitoring (AF): http://<host>:<j2ee-port>/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp?

To see sync messages on abap monitoring you need to set the parameter RUNTIME - LOGGING_SYNC on sxmb_adm > integration engine configuration > specific config.

check if the user that xmlspy uses to cennect is "xiappluser" and check the pwd too.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Ricardo.
