Hi All,

We are sending attachment to ariba and getting the following error.

Error Level] 2[Error Code] ERR303[Error Desc] Outbound Transaction Failed[Error Message] [MessageID XXXX] Http connection status for attachment download is incorrect:HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized for URL:http://XXXX] Http connection status for attachment download is incorrect:HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized for URL:XXX
at com.ariba.asc.sap.netweaver.xiadapter.ra.CCIInteraction.execute

We are sending the attachment url in the following tags of cXML

-<Comments> -<Attachment> <URL>http://XXX</URL> </Attachment> </Comments>

I am not sure what the issue is.

I have following questions.

1) Does my attachment URL has to be in some specific format. If yes what that should be?

2) This error is happening when sending the message with attachment url to ARIBA. The error talks about Unauthorized HTTP 401. So is ariba not authorized to access this url from the HTTP location?
