What does this error indicate?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Vinit

While posting about any error always provide information about your PI Version, interface flow and type of adapter used in it.

Without this basic information it becomes difficult to help.

PI version is 7.3

Scenario is Proxy to SOAP, synchronous scenario.

Error received from SOAP adapter side.

[vishal1889]

ok, this error seems to be more from the service which you are consuming at your receiver side.

Try to test the scenario with the SOAP UI that will help you to identify if the issue is with some configuration at PI end or it is some error at the service provider end.

Had received this error only thrice....after which the interface ran successfully....no errors were reported.

Is there a possibility of a temporary prob on the service provider side?

[vishal1889]

yes, there is a high possibility of errors at service providers end.

Better to check with your service provider once they might have error logs for the downtime if any.

Also if you search with your error description over internet you will find that this type of error is not specific to SAP it generally happens with errors or issues while accessing service .
