Web Service Call with XI fails at SOAP Adapter

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am currently trying to call a web service that is located in the Internet via XI using the SOAP Receiver Adapter. In the ABAP Monitoring (SXMB_MONI) the call is successfull. But when I check the Message Monitoring in the Runtime Workench I see the message failed in the SOAP Adapter. It stays in status 'wait' for some time and the shows a system error. I was able to call the Web Service via a SOAP Test Tool, i.e. the service is available and working.

Any ideas why the message fails in the SOAP Adapter? What are the steps to find the root cause?

Thanks and regards.

Look into the CommChannel monitoring and also let us know the error in the SOAP Adapter

I checked the error message again and it reads:

SOAP: error occured: java.io.IOException: invalid content type for SOAP: TEXT/HTML

Any ideas?

Thanks

Can you try contacting your Web service team and try to find out what is the Content Type expected by the Webservice?

The URL of the web service is wrong or user and password not correct.

This error message appears, when the response of the web service is not XML, but HTML instead.

Hi Stefan,

you are right, the URL was missing the extension .asmx. Now it works perfectly.

Thanks a lot.

Hi;

Check if there is some proxy setting on the XI Server if so you will have to add the same details in your receiver soap adapter.

Hi,

>>>I was able to call the Web Service via a SOAP Test Tool, i.e. the service is available and working.

but does XI have access to internet?

as you used SOAP Test Tool from your computer and not from XI machine
