rfc function module call error

Former Member — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 15:21:30 GMT

Hi Abaper,

I'm doing upgrade from 4.7 to ecc 6.0 currently and encounter problem in one of the rfc function module that we used. I've tested the connection to destination using sm59 and the connection is successful.

As an information, in the rfc setting, the target system is not Unicode system.

When I test using se37 and put the rfc destination in my function module call, I always encountered system_error exception. There's no issue with this rfc call before in 4.7 system.

Please help me on this. Thank you.

Hi,

I had the same issue in the past and solved it in the following way.

If the destination system is not Unicode please try to set the password for the communication user set in SM59 using only upper-case characters and taking into account that the password shouldn't be longer than 8 characters.

Hope this will help.

solved by asking the other system to update their system with unicode patch.
