CPACache will not update

[Former Member]

One of our systems fails to update the CPACache when performing a full cache update. The confirmation XML that comes back in the history page begins thus:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> 
- <CacheRefreshError>
  <EngineType>AE</EngineType> 
  <EngineName>af.xd1.rommi</EngineName> 
  <RefreshMode>C</RefreshMode> 
- <GlobalError>
  <Message>CPA Cache not updated with directory data.</Message> 
  <Trace>com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.impl.exception.CPADirectoryCacheException: Couldn't open Directory URL (http://rommi:50000/dir/hmi_cache_refresh_service/ext?method=CacheRefresh&mode=C&consumer=af.xd1.rommi), due to: HTTP 503: Service Unavailable at com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.impl.cache.directory.DirectoryAccess.getDataFromDirectory(DirectoryAccess.java:382) at 

Could anybody please advise how to proceed?

There are two things there

1. the error which youa re getting only because of the service is not available...

A. Make sure all the necessary service in SICF for cache are activated.

B. IN Visual Admin sericess are up...if you cannot find it restart the server J2ee only

2. Once these are up then only it will proceed furthur...the error log clearly mentions the service name...make sure it is up in visual admin....

then try to go to the SXI_CACHE and perform the delta refresh there....i faced the issue where everything was correct but not refreshed in cache...

Login to your Visual Admin check the services

SAP_XI_AF_CPA_CACHE is started if it is restart it and try
