Check user credentials username/password. This might have changed recently so you get this 401 authentication error.

Hi It is IDOC->XI->File scenario.

In XI SXMB_MONI tcode the error is at CALL ADAPTER step.

Hi,

I guess that this is an IDoc -> XI -> HTTP scenario. In this case, please check the Receiver Communication Channel parameters. User credentials should be entered there for HTTP call authentication. Most probably these credentials were changed recently on HTTP server side, so you will have to adjust them in XI as well. Now that you have old (no longer valid) credentials in the CC configuration, XI cannot get the HTTP call authorized, which results in the error you described.

Regards,

Grzegorz
