IDOC error:IDOC_ERROR_METADATA_UNAVAILABLE

[Former Member]

I had followed the "How to Send an IDoc from SAP ECC to the SAP MII IDoc Listener" atricle to setup IDOC Listenser completely.

When SAP ERP sent MATMAS message IDOC to SAP MII,I found error message in Netweaver as below:

Hi Adarsh,

I had updated IDOC Listener in MII, but still happen same error.

Do you think I need configure more IDoc message type or check another in MII?

Thanks

Hello Vincent,

Please verify whether you have set the Unicode option while creating RFC destinations but there can be an authorization issue too.

You can refer to this SAP Notes "1473183" for more detailed info.

Hope this helps!!

Hi Michael,

My Sap MII version is v12.1. I had set user name/password in Netweaver's XMIIIDOC05 resource adapter's property and test is ok.

I think it should be another problem not account issue.

Hello Vincent,

Just make sure that you have hit the update button in MII Message Listeners after configuring IDOC listener in NWA.

Any changes made to listener in nwa will not get reflected unless you do update in message listeners.

Hope this helps!!

Hi Michael,

I had set Netweaver XMIIIDOC05 adapter resource logon user/password is ok and tested SAP ERP with MII connection is OK .

Do you have any instruction for setting user name/password in SAP MII site?

Thanks

Vincent,

from my experience (MII 12.0), check the Data Server - SAP Servers entry. In Message Listener, check the Client Properties. Those are the places that sometimes have to be corrected.

Vincent,

this error is usually due to credencial problems. Please check the user and password used in MII in the connection to your SAP system.
