Calling Web Service With ABAP

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I want to create a call to a Web Service of XI from another R/3 server.

I've created client proxy in system as said

/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/11/17/bsp-a-developers-journal-part-xiv--consuming-webservices-with-abap

But when I try I get the following error:

<i><CODE>INTERNAL.SYSTEM_NOT_CONFIGURED_AS_XMB</CODE>

<ERRORTEXT>System not configured as XI Integration Engine</ERRORTEXT></i>

I know I've left some configuration, I've to say to XI that R/3 server is going to use call to XI as application server, but how I do this conf?

If I try from XI I get:

<i>INTERNAL.PROXY_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_IS</i>

Is possible to call a web service from the XI server?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Urtzi,

Use transaction SXMB_ADM and check if the client is set as an Application Server and not Integration Server.

Hope this helps.

Hi Praveen,

I've read some about this issue, but, how do I check it?

In XI I've to check whether the R/2 server is App Server? If not?

Thanks

Hi,

Have you checked the weblog posted by siva marani. It explains clearly how to invoke webservice using XI.

Below is the link for testing exposed webservice

Hi Sreeramoju,

I know how to invoke a web service using altova or similar tools, but I want to invoke it using an abap program from other R/3 system.

Thanks,

Hi,

if you are on WAS6.40 you can create the client proxy in ABAP using the wsdl of the webservice and consume the same.

if you are on was6.10 or 6.20 you can do the same over http. in this case your abap will work as a http client using cl_http_client class to consume webservice.

check if these links may help you,
