Testing ABAP Web Service from SICF

[Former Member]

I have created an ABAP web service for a BAPI following all the required steps on a ECC 6.0 system. The Web Service is released. I can see from WSCONFIG that the web service is activated. Following the ICF Detail button, which I believe takes me to transaction SICF, I attempt to test the service using Right click "Test Service" from the web service entry.

The result is a <b>HTTP 500 Internal Server Error</b>.

Using the ICF recording, the following reponse is displayed:

- <soap-env:Envelope xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

- <soap-env:Body>

- <soap-env:Fault>

<faultcode>soap-env:Server</faultcode>

<faultstring xml:lang="en">SOAP processing failure, error id = 112

</faultstring>

</soap-env:Fault>

</soap-env:Body>

</soap-env:Envelope>

Any assistance will be much appreciated. Please note that "all" services in SICF have been activated. Is there a configuration step that has been missed?

Thanks in advance,

John

you cannot test the WS from SICF. to test the same you need J2EE instance. go to transaction WSADMIN ->go to->administrative settings and enter the j2ee server address (http://server.domain.com:port) and then click on your service and click test.

if you dont have a j2ee instance, you can use some free third party tools to test your WS. i use <a href="http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=65a1d4ea-0f7a-41bd-8494-e916ebc4159c">Webservice studio</a>
