i have activated all the services from SICF, but when i click on Open Web Service navigator for selected binding , popup screen appears and shows Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage.

So i tried to test web service from SICF transaction so it shows error as below.

<soap-env:Envelope>

<soap-env:Header/>

<soap-env:Body>

<soap-env:Fault>

<faultcode>soap-env:Server</faultcode>

<faultstring xml:lang="en">

SRT: Wrong Content-Type and empty HTTP-Body received

</faultstring>

<detail>

<ns:SystemFault>

<Host>undefined</Host>

<Component>COREMSG</Component>

<ChainedException>

<Exception_Name>CX_SOAP_CORE</Exception_Name>

<Exception_Text>

SRT: Wrong Content-Type and empty HTTP-Body received

</Exception_Text>

</ChainedException>

</ns:SystemFault>

</detail>

</soap-env:Fault>

</soap-env:Body>

</soap-env:Envelope>

Thanks in Advance

>Can not reach external application server on localhost:50000

How come your server is localhost???

Secondly

>SRT: Wrong Content-Type and empty HTTP-Body received

is correct error message because you haven't supplied any input xml (which you can't do from SICF), most probably you have specified wrong J2ee engine and incorrect port. Please consult any basis guy otherwise you will keep investing lot of time in this issue and finally you realise that solution was very simple.

Can you post url of service which opened from SICF test and also post binding url. Please do not mask host if it is localhost.

Do one thing, just copy the wsdl url and check with SOAPUI it will save your time.

to copy wsdl url click on "Open wsdl for selected binding" (don't remember the exact text) and once new windows appear then copy the url and test with SOAP UI (free download).

Thanks guys for promt reply,

Now the error is trace by setting No Authentication in SOAMANAGER transaction.

But, while clicking on Open Web Service navigator for selected method got error

"J2EE host or port not specified; define them under "System Settings"

Where should i specify J2EE Host.

Thanks and Regards

In SOAMANAGER transaction goto tab "Technical Configuration" then select "System Global Settings", now goto tab "Access information J2EE server" you can settings for "host name" and port.

You can edit and type correct host and J2EE port. For hint host will be similar to host of SOAMANAGER, port will be similar to 50000 or something else.

If you are still unable to do the setting please speak to your basis consultant for step by step help.

Moderator note: Please spell words out in full "your" not "ur". Moved to the correct forum.

No third party tools are required to test. You can create a proxy to consume your webservice on any other SAP system - or, indeed, the same one, and test it that way.

You need to finish your configuration by going using transaction SOAMANAGER (assuming your running on a recent SAP version), and configure the service. You also use SOAMANAGER to get the portside and binding WSDL.

Follow [this link |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/47/3971ff39591a53e10000000a1553f7/content.htm]closely while doing configuration using SOAMANGER give authentication method as "Basic Authentication" and then save.

Hi Vinayak,

you can also try with FIDDLER (web debuggin proxy), that will allow you to check network traffic.

HI.

As i understand, you are looking for tool to invoke ur WS. For this purpose use for example soapUI, XML SPY or SAP Buit-in soft.
