Error consuming a web service

[Former Member]

Hi,

I tried <a href="/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/11/17/bsp-a-developers-journal-part-xiv--consuming-webservices-with-abap blog</a> with

my own web service. While testing this web service (f8 in se80) an error occured:

  <CODE>ERROR_WEBSERVICE_RUNTIME_INIT</CODE> 
  <ERRORTEXT>Error when instantiating the Web service runtime (Error when initializing SOAP client application: ' error_text' )</ERRORTEXT> 

I took the WSDL I generate from a SAP XI outbound interface.

Anyone got a reason why he can't instantiate this?

Any tutorials about consuming a web service with ABAP also welcome.

thx

chris

This is a good tutorial for consuming a web service from ABAP:

Thanks for your reply, but you see that I mentioned this blog?

I'm sorry. I didn't notice.

1) Go to SICF.

2) Click execute.

3) Expand the tree:

sap --> bc --> srt

Make sure that everything in <b>srt</b> is active. You might have to have your Basis team do this.

I deleted the proxy completely an recreated it. I also activate everything

within "srt" like you adviced me (there were three inactive objects) and

now I can test the web service. So I don't know if your advice made it

or the recreation, but points for you.

thanks

chris
