HTTP error: CANT_FIND_CHANNEL

[irijsdijk]

An IDoc is sent from ECC to PO. PO is transferring this via the plain HTTP_AAE adapter. During the delivery phase the following error is shown in the logging:

• InformationMP: processing local module localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.http/HttpAdapterBean
• Error in processing caused by: com.sap.aii.adapter.http.api.HttpAdapterException: CANT_FIND_CHANNEL-6f560ae311a83746952eac0afd05af1b
• MP: exception caught with cause java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.adapter.http.api.channel.HttpChannel.getProfile() of a null object loaded from local variable httpChannel
• Exception caught by adapter framework: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.adapter.http.api.channel.HttpChannel.getProfile() of a null object loaded from local variable httpChannel
• Transmitting the message to endpoint <local> using connection IDoc_AAE_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.adapter.http.api.channel.HttpChannel.getProfile() of a null object loaded from local variable httpChannel Message status set to NDLV

Switching to the SOAP adapter without envelope results in technical issues at the receiving side. Any ideas for a possible cause of this error?

Issue has been solved. A server restart did the trick.
