Port Number in HTTP Sender URL

[former_member192105]

Hello,

I am trying for a HTTP -> SAP PI 7.11 -> File scenario and now want to develop the URL which will be used by the HTTP client.

I have the format of the URL to be used

I want to ask which is the port that should be used in the URL:

http://<hostname>:<port>/

In some threads I saw that it should be 80<System_Number> (so if system number = 01 then port number becomes 8001); ABAP port, I assume.

Is this still valid SAP PI 7.11?

If yes can I check where this port is maintained (on SAP PI server)?

~Thanks.

Hello,

You can see the port using Tcode SMICM in SAP PI and then press shift+f1.

Hope this helps,

Mark

Hello,

Thank you for the reply. I was actuallu modifying the question to accomodate one more doubt

I have not maintained any RFC destination for this scenario (it is a B2B). Is it mandatory to maintain a RFC destination for HTTP -> SAP PI 7.11 -> File scenario?

Testing using RWB does not throw any error.

~Thanks.

Hello,

No, the RFC destination will be used for receiving external systems (G), r3 receivers (3), abap proxies receiver (H), rfc sender (T).

Hope this helps,

Hello,

Thank you to Rajesh and Mark for your replies.

Bad luck as I do not have access to SMICM. However I checked a property in Exchange Profile and saw that mshttpport = 8100. Is this the port (or I can only check it in SMICM)?

~Thanks.

Hi,

Check the below parameter for port

com.sap.aii.connect.cr.httpport : value will be 5xx00 (xx - system no)..

mshttp port is different...used internally..

Hello,

You can try using the com.sap.aii.connect.cr.httpport. The ms port is for the messaging system I think.

Hope this helps,

The port is indeed 5xx00.

Hi,

7.1 onwards both ports are same

go to SMICM ->goto(services) -> http port will be listed there

By default there is an http serive /sap/xi/adapter_plain provided for the HTTP ..so no need to create any addition objects for using http..

HTH
