Issue Web service consumption in ABAP - unexpected node '#text' within node

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I'm trying to consume a .net web service in ABAP. I get an error in before the proxy creation.

I validated the XML schema but found no errors. I checked if it has some XML elements unsupported in my NW version but I dont see anything there.

The error description is too vague to understand. There is no node #text in the WSDL.

I didnt find anything on sdn, service.sap that helps.

Error:

Exception occurred in Library Handler

Error:

Invalid Schema: unexpected node '#text' within node 'complexType'

Message no. SPRX189

Version:

SAP_ABA 700 0018 SAPKA70018

SAP_BASIS 700 0018 SAPKB70018

Thank you,

Vasu

In the XSD there is a complex type, but in XML is a document,

so expected: <a><b>...</b></a>

found. <a>text</a>

Hi Stefan,

But there is not #text node in the WSDL.

And when I directly use the WSDL URL, I get another error.

Exception in Library Handler error

Do you know why this error occurs.

Where can I check the detailed error message for these kind of errors?

Appreciate your help.

Thank you,

Vasu

Do you check if this WSDL is ok using other tools like XMPSpy or SOAPUI???

Yes I did. THere is no problem with that.

The problem was with the http bindings which ABAP cannot process.

I used Note 1403271 and removed all http bindings and it worked.

Thanks,

Sri

Ok, this would be my suggestion. I had this problem with the webservices http://www.webservicex.net.

Congratulations.
