File to File Scenario - multipart documents

Hi all!

I'm trying to get familar with XI technology and did an exercise in setting up a file-to-file scenario.

Within this, I designed two datatypes, message formats, mappings and configured both sender and receiver business system using the File Adapter.

Now I'm trying to send a test file. Polling the file from the input folder works fine, but no file is written to the output folder.

In the runtinme workbench's message monitor I got some log entries and an error message:

Fehler beim Übertragen der Message zum Endpunkt http://server5:8000/sap/xi/engine?type=entry über die Verbindung AFW. Grund: Received HTTP response code 415. (sorry, just German 😉)

This status code means "unsupported media typ".

I found out that my message has the content-type: "Multipart/Related" and in the server response I received a message "multipart-documents not supported".

Multiport messages are quite normal, aren't they? Does anybody have an idea, if there's a misconfiguration of the integration server or any other hint?

Any help is highly appreciated!!!

Kind Regards,

Matthias
