Error opening RFC connection Inbound message expired.

[former_member6134]

Hi Guys,

       The problem is about RFC connection in a scenario from R/3 (RFC) - PI - SOAP. When the program is executed on the R/3 side, the error we are getting is "call to messaging system failed: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception. MessagingException: XIAdapter Framework".

When we are checking in SXMB_MONI then we are getting the following error:     

com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessageExpiredException: Message 5e0626c0-69fd-11e2-8456-00096baefe5c(INBOUND) expired

When we try to check the RFC connection on R/3 side using SM59 transaction -> connection test we are getting the error of connection failed "Error in opening an RFC connection".

The pattern of this problem is that it occurs only during sometime of the day and it works at other time of the day. From the error message it appears that due to connectivity issue between R/3 and PI server there is time out and we are getting a Message expired exception.

How can we tackle such problem? Is there any fine tunning to be done on the R/3 side to establish the connectivity at all the time of the day irrespective of the load and traffic on the server. Can somebody help to resolve this issue?

Thanking You

With Best Regards

Hi,

Please check the logs why exactly the RFC Destination is failing and analyze the issue to maintain the continues connection establishment.

Hi,

The applicattion server, pointed in the RFC Sender, could be overloaded. From my point of view you can face the problem in two diferent ways:

1. To improve your application server requeriments or to have a dedicate one.

2. To use a proxy abap.

We had a similar issue and finally we migrated all our RFC senders with proxy abap objects.

Hi Suk4023,

Where are you seeing this message expired error, on SXMB_MONI on PI or SXMB_MONI on R/3?

If it's PI it could mean that the receiver (SOAP) is unavailable (or has issues) intermittently? It could even be a network issue...

Hi,

->com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessageExpiredException: Message 5e0626c0-69fd-11e2-8456-00096baefe5c(INBOUND) expired

This error might come due to huge payload.  Check the payload and try to reprocess from runtime work bench.

thanks,

Satish.
