Former Member

Hi All

My client is calling my WS on SAP XI with AXIS and they don't know how to provide the user id and password for basic authentication. I tried looking for a way to switch off basic authentication for the SOAP adapter, but I can't find it. Any idea's? (via transaction sicf is not working)

Cheers,

Frank

Frank,

This might solve your problem...

When you call the XI wservice, below is the format of the wsdl that can be sent from axis(which btw is old),

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"

xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

<soapenv:Header>

<wsse:Security xmlns:wsse="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2002/07/secext"

soapenv:mustUnderstand="true">

<b> <wsse:UsernameToken>

<wsse:Username>werner</wsse:Username>

<wsse:Password Type="wsse:PasswordText">security</wsse:Password>

</wsse:UsernameToken></b>

</wsse:Security>

</soapenv:Header>

<soapenv:Body>

<Ping xmlns="http://xmlsoap.org/Ping">

<text>Scenario 1 text</text>

<ticket xmlns:ns1="http://xmlsoap.org/Ping"

xsi:type="ns1:ticketType">scenario1</ticket>

</Ping>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

dont forget the points if it solves the issue

Hi dude,

Did you resolve your issue regarding disabling the basic authentication??

If so, could you please explain how?

Best regards,

This is not possible. You have to provide the credentials from the sending system for getting authenticated on XI system.

The answer in this thread will help solve the issue but - you will turn off authentication for all Sender SOAP adapters.

Not recommended.
