503 Service not available error while testing web service in SOAMANAGER

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

We have created a web service in ABAP and want to test it in soamanager.

When trying to test it using the "Open Web Service navigator for selected binding" link in web service administration page we get the error page--

503 Service not available

-

---

Error: -6

Version: 7000

Component: J2EE Server

Date/Time: Thu Jul 30 10:40:50 2009

Module: http_j2ee.c

Line: 820

Server: cmphr_HRC_10

Error Tag:

Detail: Cannot reach external Application Server on localhost:51000

we have enabled the wsdl service in SICF and also the APP SOA MANAGER service.

Can anyone please help.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response ....

There is no j2ee server as the system only has an ABAP stack ....

That certainly seems to be calling a J2EE engine... so I'm not sure this can be done by SICF

Hi,

Detail: Cannot reach external Application Server on localhost:51000

51000 is the port when the j2ee engine runs. As you dont have java stack am afraid this would not work.

Hi,

You are trying to launch the Web Service Navigator from SOAMANAGER.

The Web Service Navigator is a Java application running on a SAP Netweaver JAVA instance.

That is why you get the error.

Therefore you have 2 choices : install a JAVA instance or use another tool to test your ABAP web services.

There are excellent free utilities like SOAPUI for example.

Hi Prince,

Is your j2ee running?
