HTTP Sender Adapter Strange Problem After SP16 Patch!!!

Former Member

Hi,

after upgrading to XI SP 16 I'm no longer able to create HTTP Sender Adapter based Communication Channels. I can create a Receiver Adapter but no Sender since the Sender button is greyed out in the UI. Does anybody have an Idea what could be the problem here?

Kind regards,

Heiko

Hi,

we have got a scenario where the HTTP Sender Adapter is required! We use a HTTP sender -> receiver adapter pair to send a message back to the integration engine after doing some validations. We have applied the SP16 on our development system and we were able to configure HTTP sender adapters. Than we applied the SP16 to our QS system. There we can't create a HTTP Sender Adapter...

Kind regards,

Heiko

hi heiko,

Basically, the SENDER adapters are used so that the message can reach the Integration Engine of XI. Like i mentioend earlier, any HTTP request message does not need any sender adapter as it directly reaches the integration engine.

Can you give us more details on what your requirements are.? and why you need a SENDER adapter?

Hi,

<i>>>We have applied the SP16 on our development system and we were able to configure HTTP sender adapters.</i>

are you saying that there was a sender radio button for the HTTP Adapter ???

Just configure your scenario like any ordinary one. Here there won't be a sender agreement and sender communication channel.

HI Heiko,

As stated by bhavesh you cant have a sender http adapter, infact there is no need to have it.

If you want topost message to the integration engine using http protocol,you can directly send the xml message to the pipeline url of the integration engine.

Hi,

on our development system there is a radio button which can be enabled. On our Q system there is one but it can't be set.

Yes Heiko you are right,

I have checked, in SP16 you can configure a sender http adapter. There in you can mention whether you want to use http protocol or https.

But for sending the message to XI engine using http protocol one needs to send the data to the pipeline url only

hi Yomesh / heiko,

<i> have checked, in SP16 you can configure a sender http adapter. There in you can mention whether you want to use http protocol or https.</i>

Am still on SP14, so I didnt know this bit of info

But, still the need to have one beats me.. is it some error or is it some new functionality?

hi heiko

Just to add to what has been already stated, HTTP does not need a sender adapter.

Reason: HTTP adapter interacts directly with the INTEGRATION engine residing on the ABAP stack and so , no sender adapter is needed to pass the message to the Integration Engine.

PS this is irrespective of which SP you are on.
