HTTP server code 403 reason Forbidden explanation Forbidden

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We are getting below error in Receiver HTTP Scenario. We are using the same HTTP Destination in 2 communication channels. Is that causing problem ?

But other sceanrio is working fine, which using the same HTTP Destn.

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

- <!--  Call Adapter

  -->

- <SAP:Error SOAP:mustUnderstand="" xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

  <SAP:Category>XIAdapter</SAP:Category>

  <SAP:Code area="PLAINHTTP_ADAPTER">ATTRIBUTE_SERVER</SAP:Code>

  <SAP:P1>403</SAP:P1>

  <SAP:P2>Forbidden</SAP:P2>

  <SAP:P3>Forbidden</SAP:P3>

  <SAP:P4 />

  <SAP:AdditionalText />

  <SAP:Stack>HTTP server code 403 reason Forbidden explanation Forbidden</SAP:Stack>

  <SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>

  </SAP:Error>

Please let me know what could be the reason for the above failure ??

Hi,

Check the below threads:

http://scn.sap.com/message/7649144

https://scn.sap.com/thread/743893

The service is to be activated in R/3 system.

BTW, what is your overall scenario?

Hi Jeevitha,

Check the userid and password that you are using. If these are correct then check with the IT support people at the site will know what security and authentication is used.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Jeevitha,

that means no authorization. Did you may be use a http address instead of a https?

We have give RFC Destn in Communication channel (HTTP Connection to External Serv) . Please let me know where we need to check http. While testing RFC Destination connection test, we are getting BadRequest msg. But still this works fine for other scenario..
