Enable SOAP debug function in PI 7.31 AEX

[Former Member]

Hi all,

we have an issue with SOAP receiver adapter using HTTPS under PI 7.31 SP4 AEX. I have searched the community and checked the  SOAP adapter FAQ note 856597. In this note it is mentioned:

For SOAP adapter initialization problem, component com.sap.aii.af.mp.soap must be set to DEBUG. For runtime problem, additionally component com.sap.aii.messaging must be set to DEBUG.

I have only found how to configure it using visual administrator, and in in NWA Troubleshooting -> Logs and Trace -> Log configuration, I can't find where I can set DEBUG modus for the components.

I would appreciate that if someone can give some documentations about how to enable SOAP receiver adapter debug function in PI 7.31 AEX.

best regards

Dingjun

Hello Dingjun,

SAP have a new tracing tool, which you can use to collect Debug level traces. This tool is much easier to use than the old method as described by Iñaki Vila.

See note 1514898 XPI Inspector for troubleshooting XI. You need to deploy the ear file to be able to start using the tool.

Hi Mark,

thanks for your reply.

Will it be overloaded, if we just want to collect Debug level traces with SOAP adapter?
Is the tool XPI Inspector the recommended way by SAP?

Hi Dingjun,

Yes, this tool is recommended by SAP. It offers much greater stop/start controls when capturing the trace. It is a much quicker way to collect the traces.

However, you should not leave it on Debug indefinitely. Only for the duration of time it takes to reproduce the issue.

Thanks for the info. We will adopt your suggestion and use XPI inespector tool.

Hi Dinjun,

Thanks Iñaki.

I think, the path to find log configuration mentioned by you Configuration ->Infrastructure ->Log Configuration is different from where I went to Troubleshooting -> Logs and Traces -> Log Configuration, but it's the same page. Under Trace Location I  still can't find in the tree:

com.sap.aii.af.mp.soap

com.sap.aii.messaging

Maybe they have new names in 7.31?
