Need to change Pipeline URL

[Former Member]

Hello,

I need to change the pipeline url for my XI. I did changed it in SLD -> Business System and in SXMB_ADM -> Integration Engine Configuration. But when I check the configuration in SXMB_ADM (F7), it seems that everything is not correct:

Yellow triangle and this message: "Corresponding Integration Server: Current Configuration <> System Landscape"

What can I do to force the new pipeline url to be used ? Restart something, refresh something ? I did refresh everything I can, but it didn't fix the problem.

Please be specific in your directions, my XI administrative knowledge is limited.

Thanks

Hello Jerome,

The correct place to do the setting is in SLD. Go to SLD and open the business system(normally the name is <SID>100) which represents the Integration Server. Change the Pipeline URL to the current one and save it.

After that, go to SXMB_ADM -> Integration Engine Configuration again and click Edit -> change global configuration in the menu. Then you can load the setting in SLD to your ABAP stack by clicking System Landscape - Load configuration.

Please reward if it solves your problem.

Hello,

First thanks everyone for your help. Now Pipeline url are the same everywhere.

However, the server seems to still listen on the old url... Just to give you the context, the old and new url are almost the same, I just changed the port. Currently, old url still returns "Empty HTTP query received" and new one return "http error 404".

I did restart all instances in sapmcc to try to force the change, but it didn't help.

What should I try next ? Change another setting, refresh/restart something ?

Thanks again,

Jerome

http error 404 has something to with the authentication.

Please check the authorizations.

The "old" url, where you get "Empty HTTP query received" is the one using the correct port for the pipeline url. Your new one is using the wrong port - 404 is a page not found - basically an invalid url (due to the wrong port in your case).

What test are you running? What are you trying to accomplish?

I think that I know the problem. The port I try to use is not in the correct range. I think it has to be in 8xxxx range. Can you confirm that ?

Jin, to test, I just type the url in a browser and I got the result I told you...Is it correct to do so ? I know I can test it with a sm59 connection, but the result should be quite similar...

The port you should use can be confirmed via tranaction SMICM then Goto-Services - check http port there.

<i>>>>...I just type the url in a browser and I got the result I told you...Is it correct to do so ? I know I can test it with a sm59 connection, but the result should be quite similar...</i>

The result you got ("Empty HTTP query.." ) when entering the url in the browser is the expected response and basically the same result from sm59 as you say. This is the response when you send a request to the pipeline url without a message.

Confirm the port in SMICM and you should be set.

Jerome Poulin,

As William Wu pointed out, SLD is the correct place to change it.

In SXMB_ADM> IE config> and when you tried to edit the Global config data,

there is button "System Landscape" and when you click on it, if every it is done correctly it is read from SLD....

One thing you can do is the following:

SXMB_ADM->Integration Engine Configuration then menu item Edit->Change Global Configuration Data.

Now you should have a button that says "System Landscape - Load Configuration". Use that button to sync URLs.

Hi,

As I configured, the "Role of Bussiness System" is set to "Integration Server"; and the corresponding Integ server value as : "http://hostname:80<2 digit instance_number>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry

All of the icon are green color.

Good luck.
