"Computer Name of Access URL" in consumer-proxy (Web Service in SOAMANAGER)

[former_member443390]

Hi Gurus, Please need suggestions:

we had System copy from P to T. Therefore, i need to change the URL in test system, sothat it points to Test system of web service again.

while changing "Computer Name of Access URL" in consumer-proxy of Web Service in SOAMANAGER short dump with following error appears:

Category ABAP Programming Error
Runtime Errors OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED_NO
Except. CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL
Web Dynpro Component C_SRT_WS_ADMIN
ABAP Program /1BCWDY/I3Y50DSWQ6LDCQ82NU15==CP
Application Component BC-ESI-WS-ABA

Short text
Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.

Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not
caught in
procedure "CLONE_RT_CONFIG" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
access a component.
An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
before it can be used to access components.
Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the
CLEAR statement.

This usually occurs when there is an inconsistency between the Design Time object (Proxy) and the Runtime Object (Logical Port). Usually deleting the logical port and creating a new one with different name should solve the issue.

If this doesn't work, try reactivating the Consumer Proxy. Go to Tx. SE80, open the Proxy object, make a little change in the description. Activate the proxy and try to change the Computer name then. If it worked, you can revert the changes in SE80 to the original description.
